HOW TO GET TO OAXACA
The city of Oaxaca is located 450 km to the southeast of Mexico City.

• By air:
  Oaxaca International Airport is located about 20 min. from the city. There are several direct flights from Mexico City to Oaxaca every day (the flight is about one hour long). There are flights stopping in Mexico City from many cities in the U.S., including Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, Chicago, New York and Miami. There are also direct flights from the city of Houston to Oaxaca.
  Airpot to Hotel: Taxi service is available from the airport to the hotels. Cost is approximately 65 Mexican pesos (USD 6.00) for a one-way trip in an airport shuttle (shared ride with other 10 people, leaves when the van is full) or 250 pesos (USD $ 25) one-way in an individual taxi (up to 4 people with not much luggage). Could be more expensive as it is high season in Oaxaca. The taxis know quite a lot of the hotels, but it is better to take the address of the hotel: (Hotel Casa de los Frailes, Constitucion 203, entre Reforma y Avenida Juarez).
• By bus:
  For participants who plan to travel by bus from Mexico City, be aware that there are several bus stations in Mexico City, so please make sure that you get to the right one. You should go to the "Terminal de Autobuses TAPO". This bus station may be reached by taxi (one-way taxi fare from the airport is around $10 USD) or by subway (San Lazaro subway station on LINE 1 (pink line)). Buses that connect Oaxaca and Mexico City depart every 45 minutes, and the travel lasts about 6 hours. We recommend taking either one of the following bus companies: ADO (Autobuses de Occidente) or UNO. One-way fare to Oaxaca is about $40 USD. From the Oaxaca bus station, take a taxi to the hotel which costs about $2 USD one-way.
