Hello Reader,

One of the most common questions I see—both in my inbox and inside our private Facebook group of 33,000 women—is how to safely and comfortably get from Mexico City to Oaxaca.

Instead of giving one-off answers, I created a detailed guide that breaks down every legitimate transportation option: flights, luxury buses, overnight routes, timing, costs, and what I trust based on real experiences and feedback from women who travel Mexico thoughtfully.

This article isn’t scraped or generic—it’s informed by years of real travel experience, constant group discussions while traveling through Mexico, and real-world decision-making. That’s why many women use it as a reference point when planning, not just for a quick read.

If Oaxaca is on your list, bookmark this page before you book anything, and when you're ready to book or reserve, use the links in this article to save money by using the services that my website sponsors offer to our readers and followers:

Are you traveling or backpacking throughout Mexico?

I've selected a few frequently recommended items that are currently on sale. These items greatly assisted me during my backpacking travels in Mexico!

• ​MagSafe portable charger for iPhone -A battery backup is a fantastic way to protect your safety by ensuring you always have the use of your phone. This one is compact and magnetic, making it a convenient option for travel.
• ​SunBum Sunscreen—This is my go-to reef-safe sunscreen brand; their face lotion is currently 20% off. I swear by this stuff. It's Coral reef-safe, has a low-environmental impact, and does not need a ridiculous amount applied to protect your skin from the Summer Sun.
• ​Waterproof phone pouch—I use one of these when I want to swim as a solo traveler instead of leaving my phone on the beach. This one has a flotation pillow to ensure your phone won't sink if you drop the lanyard.
• ​Travelon anti-theft purses—I love an anti-theft purse because it gives me peace of mind as a solo traveler. Travelon has several styles on sale right now. It has locking zippers, slash-proof fabric, and RFID blocking.
• ​5-piece luggage set—This just seems too good to be true. The set has an impressive rating of 4.7 stars based on 3,752 reviews and costs only $149 for a complete 5-piece collection that includes a carry-on.
• ​Packing cubes to maximize its luggage space. Such a wonderful invention! These come in tons of different colors! When I use these, I recapture another 15% to 20% of additional space in my luggage. SO WORTH IT!!

Hasta Luego!
