Yesterday we went with Margaux for bird watching and hiking in the Sierra Norte Mountains. We saw about a dozen different bird species--including the Red Warbler and the Dwarf Jay. These two are birds that people travel all the way to Oaxaca to see, and we were so lucky to see them. Then we hiked to the top of the mountain with spectacular vistas. Margaux was knowledgable, friendly, and we had an excellent day. We also did the City Art Tour with her the day before and had a wonderful time.

I had the most amazing morning on Maya Women’s Day hiking with Margo (& Kacey & Mila!). The cacao ceremony was really special and the whole experience was a top highlight of my trip. Strongly advise meeting Margo and going for a hike :)

We joined Margo on Christmas day for the Cacao Day experience and had a wonderful time. Our group included young children (5 and 2) as well as seniors and the activities Margo arranged were a good time for all of us. Margo is more expensive as a guide than other options in Oaxaca but her experience comes with some nice extras such as gifts from Rut and Irvit's chocolate experience or a nice reel of photos from the day. Overall a great time and a nice conclusion to our trip to Mexico!
