Oaxaca → Monte Albán: key facts

Monte Albán from Oaxaca Airport (OAX) by private transfer: €55 per car (1–3 people) or €80 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 12 km, roughly 20 min when traffic is light and 20–30 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the arrivals area of the passenger terminal (Terminal 1), after baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Monte Albán is the ancient Zapotec capital, built on a flattened mountain top about 400 metres above the Oaxaca Valley, west of the city. From the airport the route crosses the valley floor towards the west and then climbs a winding paved road up the hillside to the car park at the entrance of the archaeological site. The climb is slow because of the bends, but the road is short, and on the way up there are wide views over the valley and the city.

The entrance, museum and car park are on the north side of the site. From there a path leads to the Great Plaza, a long open esplanade lined with platforms, pyramids, the ball court and the building known for the Danzantes carved stones, with the North and South platforms at either end. There is little shade on the hilltop, and the walk around the plaza takes some time. The site is managed by the national institute of archaeology (INAH) and has set opening hours.

Public transport: The airport operator's ground transportation page lists no scheduled bus to Monte Albán; it lists only the authorised airport transport service and car rental desks.
