Mexico City to Oaxaca: Pottery & Aztec Pyramids

This short but oh-so sweet trip through Central Mexico captures some of the best parts of the country's culture, landscapes, and tasty culinary traditions. You’ll visit the massive pyramids at the ancient Aztec capital of Teotihuacán before travelling to Puebla, a city famous for its talavera pottery and beautiful architecture. Next, you’re heading to Oaxaca where you’ll cap off your trip with a seemingly endless variety of delicious food and cultural traditions, including a visit to an “alebrijes" workshop where you’ll see these brightly coloured art pieces synonymous to the region being brought to life. Muy bueno, indeed.

While some travelers prefer to spend weeks slowly exploring a single region, this tour is designed for efficiency. It packs the essential cultural, historical, and culinary highlights of Central Mexico into one week. It’s perfect for those who want to experience the iconic pyramids, pottery, and food of Mexico City, Puebla, and Oaxaca without committing to a longer journey, prioritizing key experiences over leisurely, in-depth exploration.
