Tours - Out & About
in Oaxaca

Most tours (Out & About in Oaxaca) are offered from November through March affording participants a chance to get out of Oaxaca Centro to see things they might not otherwise have a chance to enjoy. Transportation to and from the event venue is included in the ticket fee unless otherwise noted.

Advance reservations are required and can be made in person at the Oaxaca Lending Library circulation desk or online by clicking the button on the right, next to the tour you are interested in below.

Out & About in Oaxaca tours will be available for reservation and purchase starting 30 days prior to the event date.

Arrive at the boarding location at least 15 minutes before the

tour time listed.

 

Board on Calle de Los Libres, between Zarate and San Martin,

directly behind the Americana Hotel.

If a tour is sold out, you can take a chance that seats may be

available and come to the boarding spot 15 minutes before

departure. These seats must be paid for in cash. Unclaimed seats

may be re-sold at boarding time.

If you are not yet subscribed to receive Out & About updates, when you

your first mailing to update your OLL mailing preferences or unsubscribe from all OLL mailings.
