About this trip

From the rooftops of Roma Norte to a barefoot dinner on Mexico's Pacific coast, this journey follows Mexico's cultural spine into its most rewarding corners. A private queer history walk in the capital, a family kitchen in Puebla, mezcal at source in Oaxaca, and New Year's Eve in one of Latin America's most vibrant cities. Small group. Carefully sequenced. Nothing generic.

Day 1

Day 1 image

Mexico City - Arrival

Your journey begins in one of Latin America's most alive cities. Afteryour arrival Roma Norte or Condesa, the afternoon is yours to decompress — a gentle neighbourhood walk sets the tone before the group comes together for the first reception dinner in an authentic modern Mexican restaurant.

Day 2

Day 2 image

Mexico City — Historic Centre + Xochimilco or Coyoacán

A morning in the Historic Centre with a private guide — architecture, muralism and the layers of a city built on a lake. The afternoon splits depending on the group's energy: Xochimilco puts you on a private boat through the ancient canal system that once supplied the Aztec capital; Coyoacán takes you to the streets, market and the house where Frida Kahlo was born and died.

What's included:

•     Morning private guided tour of the Historic Centre — key highlights and architecture storytelling

Day 3

Back at the hotel by early afternoon, time to reset before the evening builds. Dinner, a reserved table at a well-known Zona Rosa venue, midnight in one of the world's great cities.

Included:

•     Early morning private half-day excursion to Teotihuacán with licensed guide, return to hotel early afternoon

•     Reserved entry and table at a well-known venue in Zona Rosa for midnight celebration

Day 4

Mexico City — Slow Start + Lucha Libre!

New Year's Day is earned. The morning is slow by design — late brunch, no rush, recover at your own pace. The afternoon opens up for a museum or gallery depending on energy. By evening the group comes together for lucha libre: reserved seating, all the spectacle, and a transport plan that makes it effortless.

What's included:

  • Lucha Libre Experience

Day 5

Mexico City → Puebla → Oaxaca

The journey south begins. Puebla sits two hours from the capital and feels like a different world — quieter, more colonial, built around craft tradition and some of Mexico's most distinctive cuisine. In the afternoon we continue to go south to reach Oaxaca by early evening.

What's included:

  • Transfer to Puebla — guided historic centre walk, Talavera context and architecture

  • Mole cooking demonstration with a local family (Puebla)lunch included

Day 6

Oaxaca valleys

A full day in the Oaxacan valleys. Mitla with a specialist who can read the Zapotec stonework. Hierve el Agua timed for lighter crowds. The mezcal palenque on the return moves focus from tasting to understanding.

What's included:

  • Mitla visit — Zapotec symbolism and geometric stonework with specialist guide

  • Hierve el Agua — petrified waterfalls, timed for lighter crowds

  • Mezcal palenque visit on the return — production, sustainability and terroir

Day 7

Oaxaca City

Oaxaca's food culture runs deeper than its restaurants. A market immersion with a culinary specialist. A traditional cuisine experience in the afternoon. The evening is the group's to decide, a Low-key LGBTQ+ bar circuit is always a good option!

What's included:

  • Market immersion with a culinary specialist guide — Mercado 20 de Noviembre

  • Historic Tour of Oaxaca centre

Day 8

Day 8 image

Oaxaca → Zipolite

The journey makes its final turn — inland to coast. Zipolite is unlike anywhere else in Mexico: clothing-optional, quietly LGBTQ+ welcoming, stubbornly uncommercial.

Free time to relax at the beach or by the pool and enjoy a cocktail in one of the beach bar overlooking the Pacific ocean.
