This is a free walking tour of Oaxaca run by local guides, and it works on a pay what you want basis: booking costs nothing, and at the end of the walk each guest pays the guide whatever they feel the tour was worth. It runs every day, with departures at 10 am and 4 pm, and reservation is required. The whole thing lasts 2 hours.
Walkers start near the meeting point on Cosijoeza, in the Centro, and head for Santo Domingo de Guzmán, then the Macedonio Alcalá Theater. The listing names three stops up front and notes the full route has five, so there is a little more to it than what is published. There is no pickup: everyone makes their own way to the stated address.
It suits travellers who prefer to judge the value of a tour after taking it rather than paying up front. At two hours it is short enough to slot before lunch or before an evening plan.
A few practical points before you reserve, all drawn from the operator's own listing.
Common issues. The listing itself sets the main expectations: the tour is reservation only, so you cannot simply show up, and the published route shows only the first 3 of 5 stops, so part of the itinerary is not known in advance. There is no pickup, which means anyone staying outside the Centro needs to arrange their own way to Cosijoeza 110-A.
Booking is free. It is a pay what you want tour: at the end, guests pay the guide whatever they think the walk was worth. No tip amount is set in advance.
The tour lasts 2 hours. It runs every day at 10 am and 4 pm, and only by reservation.
The meeting point is Cosijoeza 110-A, on Ruta Independencia in the Centro of Oaxaca de Juárez. There is no hotel pickup, so you make your own way there.
The listing names Santo Domingo, the Macedonio Alcalá Theater and the tourist walkway. It also states the full route has 5 stops but only shows the first 3, so the rest is not published in advance.
Yes. The operator states the tour runs only by reservation, even though payment happens at the end. Reserve a spot for either the 10 am or the 4 pm departure.
