Time your adventure in Mexico to coincide with Día de Muertos and experience the country at its most meaningful. In Oaxaca, we join a Zapotec family for a traditional lunch, follow the rhythm of a street parade and visit the cemetery after dark, when candles and marigolds transform the graves of loved ones into places of remembrance and reunion. Beyond the festival, we trace the story of Mexico itself: from the grand avenues and museums of Mexico City to the Maya city of Chichén Itzá, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Along the way, we pass jungle-clad temples, colonial plazas and the artistic legacy of Frida Kahlo.
To ensure the best possible Day of the Dead experience, the order of activities may change. Alternatively, explore our Day of the Dead in San Cristobal trip or our standard Discover Mexico adventure.
