Access most visitors never get.

Small groups. Expert-led. The Oaxaca coast read through its food, its mezcal, and the people who keep it alive.

Book your experience
01

Not a tour

A curated sensory experience — markets, kitchens, palenques, and lagoons that guidebooks don't list. Designed and led by someone who knows every maker by name.

02

Small and unhurried

Private or groups of up to six. No scripts, no crowds. The day moves at the pace of the place.

03

You leave understanding

Every dish and drink comes with the history, the technique, the reason it exists. You don't just taste — you know why it tastes that way.

Who leads this
Janine — portrait, natural light

Janine. Anthropologist. Gastronomy. Certified guide. One of the first women in Mexico to earn a Beer Sommelier certification from the Doemens Academy in Germany.

Years on this coast. Relationships with the cooks, the mezcal makers, the fishermen. That access doesn't scale — it's why groups stay small and experiences stay real.

Common questions

How far in advance should I book?

A week is comfortable. Last-minute requests work when the calendar allows — reach out and we'll see.

Are experiences available in English and Spanish?

Yes. I lead in both. Spanish is native, not translated.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Always. Tell me in advance and every tasting, meal, and pairing will be adjusted.

What about children?

Some experiences work well for families. Others are better suited to adults. I'll advise based on what you choose.

What if it rains?

We reschedule at no extra cost, or adapt the experience to the weather. The coast has its own rhythm.
