Itinerary
Day 1
HOLA MEXICO CITY!
Welcome to frenetic Mexico City and get ready to soak up that red-hot latin vibe. Arrive at any time (we can help recommend flights) and we’ll be at the airport ready to take you back to your hotel. Unpack, relax, settle-in and the hotel is well located for you to go for a sneak peak of this buzzing mega city. In the evening we’ll meet for a welcome introduction and then enjoy some dinner and cocktails while you get to know your fellow travellers.





Day 2
HISTORY, TACOS & TEQUILLA
Time to get out and see what all the hype is about! We’ll meet with Mexico City native, Carlos, and take a behind the scenes wander through the ‘Centro Histrico’ district. You’ll learn about the city’s fascinating history – from the Aztecs, to Spanish colonisation, through to modern day – and get an inside perspective on what life’s like for the locals. En route we’ll stop off at our favourite food market where you’ll enjoy the most delicious Mexican street food (seriously)! And of course, we couldn’t come all the way to Mexico without sampling the local tipple. Yep, we end the day with some tequila tasting.



Day 3
XOCHIMILCO + WRESTLING
This morning we’ll head south of the city to visit the enchanting canals of Xochimilco. Here we’ll hop on a trajinera boat and cruise along enjoying the lively atmosphere of passing food vendors, artisans and mariachi bands. It’s oh so very Mexican! In the afternoon we’ll visit the Frida Kahlo museum and explore the nearby bohemian neighbourhood of Coyoacán. We’ll then top off a busy day with a lively night out at the city’s must-experience local sport – Lucha Libre (Mexican wrestling).





Day 4
PYRAMIDS, VOLCANOES & PRETTY PUEBLOS
Today is free for you to indulge in your own personal interests. You could decide to check out other areas within this gigantic city such the impressive Chapultepec Forest or the trendy Roma neighbourhood. Or you could take a day trip to one of the very cool nearby attractions – visit the charming cities of Puebla and Cholula, get awe-inspired by the ancient pyramids of Teotihuacan, or hike magnificent Nevado de Toluca volcano. You’re spoilt with options!



Day 5
OAXACA
Time to slow the pace and head to Oaxaca, the cultural heartland of Mexico. We’ll travel in the morning and arrive at our hotel by mid-afternoon, giving you a few spare hours to explore the city. Enjoy the colonial architecture. Wander the quaint streets filled with beautiful churches and peaceful plazas. Check out the local art scene and artisanal markets, and feel the influence of the indigenous culture throughout. In the evening we’ll regroup for dinner at our favourite local spot.





Day 6
MEZCAL FARM
Today we go rural and learn more about tequila’s trendier cousin – Mezcal. We’ll take a short drive to the nearby village of Santiago Matatlán (“The World Capital of Mezcal”) and visit a small family owned farm where you’ll learn more about Mezcal culture, production and traditions. Local farmers will teach us the traditional techniques from harvesting the agave plant all the way through to distillation and we’ll finish off with a traditional lunch and a round of mezcal tasting.



Day 7
HIKING, HOT SPRINGS & MEXICAN CUISINE
Free day to explore. There’s a huge variety of things to do. If you’re a foodie then Oaxaca is world renowned for gastronomy and is the perfect place to enjoy an authentic Mexican cooking class. For nature lovers the spectacular Hierve el Agua is a must visit, with it’s stunning landscapes and “petrified waterfall” rock formations. And for the more active, the neighbouring Sierra Norte offers breathtaking hiking trails through rugged mountains and indigeneous villages.





Day 8
BEACH TIME!
Today we head to the coast as we make our way to Tulum, the small and stylish beach town located in Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula. It’s a stunning setting where golden sandy beaches and crystal clear Caribbean sea blend in perfect harmony with the ancient ruins of a former Mayan port city. Following a short flight from Oaxaca you can check into your hotel and then go grab a margarita and settle in to your new exotic surroundings.



Day 9
BIKES, CENOTES & MAYAN RUINS
It’s time to discover all that Tulum has to offer and what better way to do that than on two wheels? We’ll bike quiet roads, lush forest trails and scenic beach paths to discover the full diversity of this fantastic little town. We’ll visit the Mayan ruins and learn about their rich cultural heritage. We’ll discover diverse ecosystems and stop off for a dip in some of the most breathtaking Cenotes (crystal clear swimming holes formed within vast cave systems). And we’ll enjoy the tastiest of tacos!





Day 10
YOGA & CHILL DAY
We’ll ease our way in with an early morning yoga session and then the rest of the day is yours to enjoy this beachside paradise. Maybe it could be that chill day you’ve been waiting for – the perfect opportunity to relax on the beach? Or if you prefer to be more active you could do some kayaking, stand up paddle boarding or even head into the pueblo and browse the many boutique stores on offer. For our last evening in Mexico we’ll share one final group dinner and (just maybe) say farewell over a mojito or two.



Day 11
BYE (FOR NOW)
What an epic adventure it has been. You’ve felt the buzz of thriving Mexico city, wandered the cobbled streets of charming Oaxaca, and breathed the warm sea breeze of Tulum. You’ve biked prehistoric ruins, shared tequila with agave farmers, swam in natural cave formations and chanted wildly at Mexican wrestlers. More than that you’ve gained a genuine insight into the richness of Mexican culture and met some amazing people along the way. Until the next adventure.

What Our Guests Say




“Head and Shoulders Above the Rest”
Having been on numerous group holidays with more than 5 different companies, my standards are high and I can honestly say that Other Way Round is head and shoulders above all of them.
“Not Mass Produced or Touristy”
What I loved about this trip was that it didn’t feel mass produced and touristy. There was a sense of originality to it and uniqueness about the trip and the itinerary.
“Completely Hassle Free”
I usually travel DIY, where I arrange and book everything myself, and it was such a welcome change to have all that time and stress of booking the different elements of the trip taken away from me.
“Trip of a Lifetime”
I will never forget this trip. Not only because of the country itself, but because of the experience that Other Way Round gave me and the other group members. It was a trip of a lifetime and you will be missing out if you don’t just book it!
