The views were incredible in the mountains and the MTB single trails were really fun. The tour ended with some great food. We are very happy we chose to do this tour. Be prepared, this is a real adventure! Absolutely recommended!

Caring guide with excellent support. Oaxaca MTB!!! - Incredible attention from the Coyote team, Rafaflow as a guide, and Victor as logistical support, they behaved and took care of us very well. The medium to advanced level trails are very well maintained. Rafa explained the difficulties to us and guided us at all times, never leaving areas without a guide. They lent us a gopro!!! We did a day of unmatched trails, fast and full of adrenaline. Coyote had prepared a picnic for us for lunch, during the day enough water and nuts for the road. The Plato van to get on without problems. The best MTB experience in Oaxaca!

Memorablest Activity in Oaxaca - We were out for half a day with the Coyote team. It was incredibly beautiful. We drove 1.5 hours to the starting point on a mountain. From there we went down to the valley on modern mountain bikes. Not too slow and still careful. It was perfect and we felt very well looked after. Afterwards we had a delicious lunch in the village with locals. Very personal and not at all touristy. We were shown how carpets are made on site. Then we went to another mountain for a sunset hike. This was spectacular with a gorgeous view. The team gave us a wonderful unforgettable day. We can heartily recommend it if you are looking for something outside the main tourist attractions with individual activities.

Incredible experience in the mountains of Teotitlan del Valle - We had an amazing experience in Teotitlan del Valle. My favorite part was biking down the mountains but also the hike at sunset was beautiful. I love seeing the artisans' house and how the make their handcrafts. If you love carpets, do not miss the chance to buy from the creators which have a lot of different design options and give you a better price because you buy directly from them. The food cooked by Josefina was delicious, I recommend the mole. Overall, I would say that this tour gives you the opportunity to have an adventure, enjoy nature, but also to connect with the locals, eat their food and see how they continue with the traditions of handcrafting and natural dyes techniques.

Memorable day in the mountains - What a fantastic day! We started with a breakfast in a typical local village which was great to sample the locals way of life. The bike ride was spectacular and Fernando our guide was informative and fun. The tour took great care to really immersive is into the locals world. Fernando is a fun guy to chat with, very knowledgeable and he was interested in me and my background!
The cycle down from the the mountains to the villages below was something out of a car commercial. Simply breathtaking!
Thanks for a special day where I felt like I was a local one minute and flying through the mountains the next!

Great mountain biking to know Oaxaca's sorroundings - A very delighful journey around Oaxaca's central valleys. I enjoyed biking uphill to the mountains and then going through a nice journey down to a cultural rich town. There it was very interesting to see how the rugs are made and the people who attend the place are very kind and prepare everything for a good experience. Coyote's guys are very helpful and willing to guide you through the places. A very good experience!

Truly Memorable Experience - Coyote Aventuras truly enhaced our family vacation. The team was professional, well prepared and extremely knowledgable. Through Fernando and the Coyote team, our family learned not only about Oaxaca and its cutural sites, but about the true Mexican culture and local environment. I was surprised about all the outdoor possibilities Oaxaca and Coyote Aventuras have to offeI highly recommend their bike rides! It was a fun way to explore, keep the children entertained and give a healthier side to our vacation.

Wonderful way to experience Sierra Norte - My boyfriend and I are avid outdoor enthusiasts and spend a lot of time outside. We love to see the surrounding mountains and villages whenever we travel, and get away from the noise of the city. Going with Coyote Aventuras gave us the ability to travel to Sierra Norte with no worries about equipment, transport, food, or even water.
We had a wonderful time with Fernando as our guide--he showed us some really amazing lookouts and is a really fun guy to hang out with all day! He took great care of us. Additonally, having someone on the tour who specializes in Biology and Botany was a huge plus, as I am very interested in local flora and fauna.
The local food we ate for breakfast and lunch was some of the best food we ate the whole trip--nothing special, but incredible home cooking and friendly people.
Learning about the textile weaving in Teotitlan was super informative and enjoyable. We purchased a few things there and I was really happy to have learned about how the dyeing process works.
When we visit Oaxaca again, we will go on another tour with Coyote Aventuras. We became friends with Fernando and hope he will visit us in the US.

Mountain biking and the Sierra Nortes with Coyote! - I was so incredibly impressed with the experience we had with this amazing tour company. I probably sound like a paid shill, but I'm just an experienced traveler that has never had such an enriching experience.
The Coyote team is everything you could want in a tour guide. They have great gear(for mountain biking at least), they are so incredibly warm and welcoming, and you will leave the experience with an incredible amount of knowledge about the local culture.
Coyote is not about the money. Coyote is about exposing tourists to the incredible mountains and local indigenous culture that the Sierra Nortes have to offer.
We had already done 3 days in the Sierra Nortes before this trip and still learned so much. I should also mention that we had 2 incredible meals prepared by locals and it beat the hell out of some of Oaxaca's finest restaurants.
I am an old, out of shape person who never mountain biked before, and the guides were really patient and caring and taught me how to do it. I had such a great time hurtling down the mountain.
DO THIS! And if biking isn't your thing, they can take you hiking or any other guide service you need.
Coyote and Clement, I thank you for the great day.
