Overview

Driving four-wheelers (ATVs) is much more than a ride – it’s an outdoor adventure that frees you from stress and connects you directly to nature. We start in the heart of Mitla’s historic center and we tour the village on wheels, passing through key points while sharing curious facts and local stories.

The excitement rises as we head towards one of the largest mountains surrounding Mitla, a unique place where we drive towards prehistoric caves. With a little luck, we can see owls, eagles, hawks, horses, bulls and more. Along the way you will find amazing spots for Instagram-worthy photos ✨

Photos, adrenaline and pure adventure await you.

    Cuevas Prehistoricas de Mitla

    We visited the prehistoric caves, taking a walking tour that was very relaxing for anyone. Learning about our past through cave paintings is undoubtedly an adventure you can't miss. You'll meet the guardians of this area and they'll tell us anecdotes about the caves, as well as all the mystery, magic, and secrets the place holds. Do you like bats? Hopefully we can see many of them here. It's important for you to know that these caves are more than 10,000 years old and belong to a protected natural area in Oaxaca. As we begin the descent, we will sit at a lookout point to enjoy the view and have a mezcal, to thank the earth and Mother Nature for all that she has given us. Afterwards we returned to the Mitla center, to the place where we began the adventure. The time described here is the total length of the tour for this part of the tour.
