I spent over a week in Oaxaca city last year and only took a taxi to/from the airport. Everywhere in the city I wanted to go, I walked, and when I went to nearby towns I took buses or shared taxis.
Thank you for your information. Is there anything you recommend to not miss or particularly good guides or tours? We are going in early November a few days after the "Día de los Muertos" We are staying 11 nights.
