Monte Albán: A Glimpse into Zapotec Civilization

Just a short drive from Oaxaca lies the ancient Zapotec capital of Monte Albán. This UNESCO World Heritage Site offers panoramic views and a chance to walk among temples, tombs, and pyramids. With Happytripz, you'll get an insightful tour that breathes life into these stone relics, telling tales of a civilization that thrived long before the Spanish conquest.

Hierve el Agua: Petrified Waterfalls and Natural Pools

Imagine dipping your toes into natural infinity pools with a backdrop of petrified waterfalls. Hierve el Agua is a geological wonder that's not to be missed. Our guided trips here ensure you have plenty of time to soak in the mineral-rich waters and explore the surrounding trails.

Teotitlán del Valle: Weaving Art and Tradition

For a touch of local artistry, Teotitlán del Valle is a must-visit. This village is renowned for its handwoven textiles, dyed using traditional methods. Happytripz takes you into the heart of these workshops, where you can witness the creation of vibrant rugs and perhaps even take a piece of Oaxaca home with you.
