Testimonials
¨The tour was a unique and unforgettable travel experience, made possible by our charming guides Monica, Omar, and Carlos. They shared their beautiful culture with us through an outstanding combination of activities in small groups. The friendly Instituto Cultural de Oaxaca became our home away from home, where we became participants rather than just spectators. The Instituto's comparsa parade was a rollicking, joyous experience. I enjoyed the wonderful people of Oaxaca, the access to delicious regional food and artisan handicrafts, and the endless colorful sights.¨
¨This experience exceeded my expectations. The adventure encompassed so much culture, history, archeology, arts and culinary delights. I recommend MOC Adventures for anyone who wishes to truly experience Oaxaca.¨
¨Monica, Omar and Carlos of MOC Adventures provide an experience of Oaxacan history, arts, crafts, culture and Dia de los Muertos that is an exciting and educational personal adventure! They have their finger on the pulse of the celebration in the city and Valley and are thoughtful, accomodating, well educated guides to it all. (and yes, they are fun people!) They also know the local fine dining scene in Oaxaca City, which is welcomed after a day of wandering the markets, the specialty shops and zocalo! I recommend this company to anyone who wants to fully experience the Oaxacan Dia de los Muertos celebration.¨
