DAY 2: Immersing in Oaxaca's TraditionsToday, our group of adventurous couples and solo women travelers comes together to explore the art and traditions of Día de los Muertos in Oaxaca.
We start the morning at an alebrijes studio, where we learn how these colorful wooden creatures are carved and painted. While enjoying hot chocolate and pan de muerto, each traveler gets to paint their own alebrije to take home. Next, we visit a pottery studio to see local artisans at work, followed by a stop at a Zapotec weaving workshop, where we watch beautiful textiles come to life using natural dyes. In the afternoon, we join a tortilla-making class and end with a mezcal tasting—a fun way to connect and share stories as a group. As night falls, we visit a local cemetery to experience the heart of Día de los Muertos, walking together through candlelit altars and marigolds as families honor their loved ones.
