Frequently asked questions about hostels in Oaxaca

  • What are the most affordable attractions for backpackers to visit in Oaxaca, Mexico?

    For budget travellers in Oaxaca, exploring the Centro Histórico is free and offers incredible architecture like the Templo de Santo Domingo and the Zocalo. The many free walking tours are a great way to learn about the city's history. Visiting the artisan markets, like the Mercado Benito Juárez, is also inexpensive and a fantastic way to experience local life and find affordable souvenirs. A hike up Monte Albán, while involving a bus fare, offers stunning views for a relatively small cost.

  • What are some unmissable, lesser-known spots in Oaxaca, Mexico?

    Many overlook the peaceful Hierve el Agua, with its petrified waterfalls and stunning views. The small town of Teotitlán del Valle, known for its beautiful hand-woven rugs, offers a more authentic experience than some of the larger tourist traps.

    Staying in a smaller, family-run hotel or guesthouse often provides more opportunities for interaction.
