It's true. We have officially changed the name of the celebration that people have been taking pleasure in for over a decade. We're still the same enthusiastic group of people with a fondness for sharing the textures and flavors of our culture; the same history, the same foods, same creativity.

We've changed the name and the logo to better reflect what it is people looked for and discovered when they joined us for the Food of the Gods Festival in Oaxaca. They were all looking to savor ..... A TASTE OF OAXACA.

So, we've changed our name, but not our mission - which is to offer you insights into the best of Oaxaca has to offer. We just wanted to better describe what you can expect from your visit.

We still offer the same service, the same opportunities to explore, learn and have fun; the same delicious cuisine and indigenous arts and crafts. Come and join us for one of the best vacations you'll ever have ............ A TASTE OF OAXACA.

With 17 indigenous Indian groups from the Oaxacan valleys, mountains and coastal regions contributing to this robust cuisine, Oaxaca today offers a wide variety of eating pleasures - lifting what was basically peasant food to incredible heights of culinary sophistication.

Oaxaca is really the place of choice to experience authentic pre-Hispanic flavors; flavors that were enhanced by the skills of early convent nuns and perfected by present-day chefs.

"Thank you for the excellent vacation I just experienced! The effort you put into providing your clients the opportunity to have a wonderful time is obvious. The tours, restaurants, classes, hotel accomodations ... outstanding!

The tours of the market, the pyramids, the craft villages, etc...extraordinary! Through your very-qualified, informative guides, I learned an enormous amount of information to satisfy my anthropological hunger!

I attended the empanada class and got some good ideas on applying this cooking method to my food preparation at home....."

" I really enjoyed my vacation and hope to do this again. I made lots of new friends and thought it was one of the best vacations I have had." 

" I really liked the fact that everything had a kind of independent feel to it. Not overly structured and with plenty of free time. I enjoyed the variety and flexibility of the festival events."

" What a fabulous way to experience real Mexico! Wonderful food, people, architecture and scenery- landscape! Having only been to resort cities I didn't know what to expect. I loved Oaxaca and have recommended it to friends."

" A visit to Oaxaca is memorable for so many reasons-- the culture, the food, the archeological sites, and especially the warm and hospitable people."
