    Lydhier and his family were so incredibly attentive to us, and knowledgeable throughout the whole trip. They guided us through every step of the journey with care and expertise. Through their guidance, we were introduced to a side of Mexico that I didn't know existed. It's beyond words. Moreover, their insights offered a fresh perspective on humanity as a whole. Their warmth and kindness truly made this trip an unforgettable experience.

    INCREDIBLE!!! AAAA++++ This is one of the best travel experiences I have ever had and I have been travelling for years! I have never felt so welcomed and a part of the family! I experienced so much, learnt so much and although my Spanish is minimal we laughed and shared memories together. The family went above and beyond to help me, teach me about their heritage and specifically the cooking as things the reason for my travel to Oaxaca. I learnt traditional Oaxacan cooking, they took me to visit the villages and artisan families. We just spent time together and I feel so at home and comfortable! I even stayed extra night because I loved it so much! I highly recommend staying they are the most beautiful people! I will never forget this experience! They really touched my heart and soul! I miss them dearly already and they are family to me! AAAA+++++++ thank you so very much from my heart!

    My partner and I loved our week with Lydhier’s family! We wanted a more authentic Oaxacan experience and that’s exactly what we got. Every meal was a delight, the family’s kindness and humour made for a warm environment. Lydhier was so helpful in driving us to town/ explaining the bus system/ and how to get to day trips outside of the city. Gracias Lydhier :)

    The time with Lydhier, Nelly and Maria was really wonderful.

    They are such a friendly, open and personable family who welcome their guests with open arms. So also me as a solo traveler. Maria makes great food, I got super tips for Oaxaca and also did things with them. I enjoyed spending time with them and was able to improve my Spanish.

    Anyone who not only wants to experience authentic Mexico, but also wants to meet great people, should come here.

    By the way, the room was also wonderful and comfortable!
