About this trip

✨Experience the magic of Día de los Muertos in Oaxaca from the very beginning, as families prepare their homes to welcome loved ones back.✨

Monday, 2nd November

11:30 am - 6:30 pm

Experience the celebrations come to a close, as families begin to say goodbye to their loved ones.


In Teotitlán del Valle, you’ll be welcomed into the home of an En Vía woman entrepreneur and spend the afternoon accompanying her through the day’s traditions. Around mid-afternoon, families mark the departure of the souls, shaping the rhythm of the experience. The day may move between time in the home, visits within the community, and time at the cemetery, where families gather to decorate graves and spend time together.

Teotitlán del Valle, known as the “Land of the Gods,” is widely recognised for its weaving traditions that continue to shape daily life. Families combine artisan work with household and community responsibilities, maintaining strong links between tradition and present-day life.

This experience offers a balanced and meaningful perspective on this important transition within the celebration.

What to expect🏵️

  • Time with one En Vía woman entrepreneur and her family

  • A traditional meal

  • Chocolate demonstration and tasting

  • Artisan business demonstration (weaving or natural dyeing)

  • Bilingual (English–Spanish) guides

All tour fees directly support En Vía’s interest-free loans and business education programs for women entrepreneurs.
