Monday’s Pochutla Market & Culinary Tour

What's included

What to expect

Departure is at 9:00 am, we’ll walk downtown La Crucecita to check out fresh produce from street vendors, fish shops, and butchers, then we’ll stop at an eatery for breakfast where local authentic food is cooked over wood, tortillas are freshly made and if you want to give a try of making one is cool, we can also help make a salsa there; then we’ll go off to Pochutla (about 50 minutes) to visit the market, here we walk the adjacent streets to the Mercado where vendors from all over the small villages come to sell their products, we can also sample some food here and buy some very cool and useful handcrafted cooking utensils. Then we’ll drive back to Santa Maria to visit the mezcal factory to learn and hopefully experience the process of making this amazing spirit; on our last stop, we’ll have a late lunch at a place chosen depending on timing. We should be back by 3:00 pm.
