Gabriel gave a terrific walking tour of the history of Oaxaca and its people. He was well versed and engaging. I'd highly recommend this tour for a first day in the city as it helps orient you to the grid layout. It's also a great tour to have following a tour of Monte Alban. Got a couple of tailored recommendations from Gabriel based on my interest (Mixtec cuisine and gold filigree jewelry). Thanks for a great morning!
