Join Beryl in Oaxaca for Día de Los Muertos!

Ever since my first trip to Oaxaca, Mexico in 2005, I’ve wanted to return for the very popular and very special week – Día de Los Muertos, or Day of the Dead. I’ve been back many times in October, with many of you. But this year is the first time we will be going for Día de Los Muertos and be in the heart of the city for Mexico’s most colorful and festive holiday.

Our week will center around the spiritual, cultural, and culinary festivities of the city.

This will include cooking classes, walking tours, salsa dancing, and creating and decorating an ofrenda (altar) to welcome departed relatives. Our host, one of the foremost authorities on Mexican folk art and culture, gives us an inside track to local families, markets, chefs, indigenous artists, musicians, and best of all, a special place to dance and enjoy Afro Cuban salsa music!

Day of the Dead is a bucket list priority.

The food, the tamales, the smells, the markets, the mole, the music, the marigolds, the steaming chocolate and fresh baked Pan de Muerto (eaten with coffee or hot cacao), the construction in every home of the joyful ofrendas that celebrate the return of departed ancestors . . . all unique to the magical city of Oaxaca, always in the Top 10 best cities in the world (Travel & Leisure), and #1 in 2022 and 2023.
