Discover authentic Oaxaca through a respectful Central de Abastos Market Food Tour. Savor local gastronomy and engage in genuine cultural encounters.
- Jardín Sócrates - Mercado Margarita Maza de Juárez, commonly known as Mercado de Abastos, is the largest market in Oaxaca City. Situated southwest of the city, it’s just a 15-minute walk from the Zocalo.
Exploring it on your own can be daunting due to its vast size—spanning over 16 hectares—and finding the best spots and stalls to experience the wide variety of food and drinks can be overwhelming. This tour is designed to guide you through the market, sampling its delicious food and beverages, and visiting the craft areas where local artisans showcase their products directly from their workshops.
