Wow! Good luck with the move, that sounds amazing! We would personally choose Jalatlaco for the ambiance and feeling of safety and security. However, Reforma has a lot more conveniences, such as bigger grocery stores for example. But if we were to head back, we would personally choose Centro, that was our favorite. And if it was just between Jalatlaco or Reforma, then Jalatlaco. Hope this helps! 🙂

Hi! Glad the video was helpful 😀 How exciting that you are heading down there for a month! One of our favorite AirBnBs is one that you can find if you search "airbnb comfortable apartment with terrace oaxaca" in google. It should be the first search result that pops up (the host is Lourdes). It is just outside of Reforma, a bit north. For our purposes it suited us very well. At the time we went, it did not have air conditioning, but if that's not an issue for you, we highly recommend it. The host was also very nice and super helpful. As far as where we would stay again though, if we went back for another long term stay, we would definitely look for a place in Centro, without a doubt. We loved our stay there the most! There are so many things within walking distance, you are close to lots of touristic activities, and you are right in the action of certain celebrations! As a personal 2nd choice of neighborhood, we would choose Jalatlaco, though most things would be a short taxi ride away 😊

Awww, we are so happy to hear that, thank you! 😊 Happy Holidays to you too!! 👋☃️☕️

Our video shows their website, which perhaps is using footage from previous years. However, we went to check it out ourselves last week and absolutely loved it! We did see the tent of lights, the nutcrackers, the mirror rooms, and photo boxes. The specific lights at the timestamp you gave we did not see, but they did have a very similar display with carpets of lights, reindeer statues of lights and a cool flying fireflies effect. Also, the enchanted forest was a bit hidden, but if you go past the tunnels in gingerbread land and turn left down the pathway, you will eventually see it :D

And a Happy New Year 🎵🎶 Thank you 😊

Have fun! So many places, it's hard to choose which ones to go to! Happy Holidays! 😃

It makes us super happy that our video could help you find what you were wanting! We hope you have an amazing time exploring Oaxaca!😃!!

So happy you liked it! We really appreciate the feedback 😍 Thank you!

Exactly! We hope our video can inspire and reassure people that it is safe to travel to Oaxaca de Juárez and that they have lots of great options of where to stay 😃

Thank you! We're really happy that you're enjoying what we're sharing 😊✨️ Looking forward to being able to provide more content in Nov & Dec!

Thank you for the compliment! 🙂 We wish you luck finding new clients, but we are not looking for paid services at this time.

Timing might be a bit tight 😉 ... But, maybe it would count if you watch your favorite Halloween movie on the flight down to Oaxaca! 🍿✈️😀

Glad it helped! We made it because we also appreciate it when we find this type of content before planning a trip! Hope you get to go soon 🙂

Glad it was helpful! 😍 The cemetery we featured in the video was "Panteón de Xochimilco" (just north of Centro). As we mentioned in the video, it was recommend to us for a super intimate and low key setting, with different presentations outside the cemetery on different days. However, if you are looking more for something similar to what they depict is Disney's Coco, the cemeteries about 20 min (probably 45min to 1hr in the traffic of the holiday) south of Oaxaca de Juarez are highly decked out, they are called "Panteón Viejo Xoxocotlán" and "Panteón Xoxo". We hope you have an amazing time experiencing Día de Muertos!!

@@takeoffgetaway Thanks so much for the recommendations. I really appreciate it. I really like the smaller more intimate one you shared in this video. I'm going to try and get to this one at least. Thanks again! I am excited to experience it in Oaxaca.

Ok great! 👍 We're excited for you, hope you have an amazing time!! 😊👏

Hi! Oh my goodness, we are so excited for you! 😀🙌 Thank you for your compliments; glad you enjoy our videos ❤️ Yes, I got that axolotl tank top in Oaxaca. Actually, if you got to timestamp 15:09 in this video, we are looking at t-shirts in front of a seller with a floral headband... That's where we got it! 😊 We didn't see any names for the booths, but we just checked the tag and it is by "Larva Clothing" and they actually seem to sell shirts online 🙂 As far as shops, we mainly bought our souvenirs from street vendors or the booths next to the Santp Domingo church. But we can recommend a few restaurants if you want 😉

@@takeoffgetaway Thank you so much!☺ My best trip souvenirs have usually come from street vendors so I will stick with shopping that way. But yes, any advice on restaurants and/or coffee shops would be wonderful. 😀

@@KarynMcClary Sure! Our favorite restaurant was Los Danzantes (on the Andador Turístico about 400* ft south of the Santo Domingo church), which is a high-end restaurant. We had the mole sampler, we highly recommend it! We also enjoyed the Mayordomo locations, they are a mid-range restaurant. They have several locations but they are not a franchise so they have different menus at each one. Our favorite was the one at the Zocalo. And if you are looking for more of an authentic hole in the wall, our favorite was El Apetito Buffet, an amazing selection and everything was so tasty, and the price was super affordable! As far as coffee shops, we couldn't stop going to Cafe Brújula, which we featured in the video (they also have several locations, we went to the one kitty corner to the Santo Domingo church). Hope you enjoy!

@@takeoffgetaway Thank you so much! I am very excited to try your recommendations.😋

While living in Oaxaca for one month, we had the opportunity to talk to many locals. These picks are based not only on research we did before heading down there, but also by the confirmation from the many Oaxacans we spoke to. 🙂 In general, Oaxaca is one of the safest states to visit in Mexico and its capital is considered safe for tourists; but even still, these were the places we felt most comfortable in recommending after having stayed in 3 of those neighbohoods ourselves, walking around the other two, and hearing about it directly from the many friendly local Oaxacans we had the chance to meet 😀

Very well deserved 👏 We loved the time we spent there and definitely look forward to return! Oaxaca has so much to offer!

Thank you, glad you liked it!😃

We hope you are able to go! Oaxaca is often called the gastronomic capital of Mexico! There are so many great places to get amazing food, hopefully we can make a video of our favorite restaurants in Oaxaca! 😍

It was AMAZING! We would go back every year if we could! 😍
