Oaxaca isn’t just about the city — the surrounding valleys and mountains are packed with unforgettable day trips. Join Laura as she visits the weaving village of Teotitlán del Valle, marvels at the ancient Tule tree, climbs among the ruins of Mitla, and hikes the surreal mineral pools of Hierve el Agua. Along the way, discover when to visit Oaxaca for its most colorful festivals — from Día de los Muertos to the quirky Night of the Radishes. History, culture, food, and natural beauty all combine into one adventure-packed episode.
