Fabulous guide in and around Oaxaca

Ivan was a fantastic guide, really knowledgeable about Oaxaca, Mexican history and surrounding archaeological sites. His English is excellent and he is very amenable to customizing your itinerary to cover whatever you want to do. From the moment he picked us up at the airport, we knew we were in good hands. Highly recommended!

Amazing Oaxaca Trip

Ivan was amazing! He is so knowledgeable about the history of Oaxaca and answered all our questions with confidence no matter how crazy they were. His van is super comfortable and he made sure we were always hydrated and comfortable. He was also always on time with a smile on his face and made our trip super enjoyable. Honestly would recommend Ivan to everyone!

A First-Rate Guide to Oaxaca

Ivan took us on two trips: one to crafts villages south of the city and one to the archaeological site at Monte Alban. His English is excellent, he is highly knowledgeable, and his price is right. The vehicles he uses are clean and comfortable. As a bonus, he gave us much useful information about eating and shopping in town. We enjoyed Ivan’s cheerful and outgoing personality and recommend him enthusiastically to anyone traveling here.

About me

I have been fortunate to be a tour guide in Oaxaca to a large number of tourists around Mexico, meeting all kinds of travelers and the occasional celebrity; for example: Roughly 5 years ago, I had the opportunity to guide Malia, the daughter of former President Obama, for a week, and educate her on the cultural and historical richness of Oaxaca.
It is my job as a licensed Oaxaca tour guide to provide you with all of the pertinent details and information of all the attractions that we visit so you may have a true appreciation of the place whether it be an archaeological ruin or a building in the historic center. These details can be easily missed without a knowledgeable guide.
It is my goal and my passion to provide you with the best and most complete service, sharing with you the gems of knowledge and experience acquired over a lifetime of living and working here and make your visit here to our beautiful Oaxaca an unforgettable experience.
