The boat tour was great in xochimilco, our guides Ivan and Camilla were phenomenal and worth every peso we paid. I booked for me and my 3 friends and had a great time. The experience was unforgettable. This tour was great with authentic flavors and lots of games to liven up the boat ride. Please come with your best energy, and ready to have a great time.

Xochimilco canal boat tour was a fun experience. Tuesday morning was a great time to be on the canals with few boats out and much quieter than the weekends. Pancho was a great guide, with a wealth of knowledge, having grown up in this district. It was one of the highlights of our trip.

Luis was the best tour guide ever! Never a dull moment throughout the journey. We learnt so much about the history of Mexico City and the culture of the local people, while also having lots of fun! I would highly recommend to anyone visiting!

Hands down, the best tour experience! I’d only do it again with the Ivans—they made it unforgettable. It was fun from start to finish, full of laughs, great vibes, and seriously amazing taquitos. If you’re thinking about booking, don’t hesitate—just make sure the Ivans are your guides!

The canel cruise is full of laughs with games and activities meticulously planned by our hosts. Hibiscus tacos and carajillo are great . We made our own Paloma or Michelada. The karaoke challenge is super fun and everybody is so happy and passionate.

This tour was great! Leslie was an amazing tour guide. She had activities planned for the whole time. It was interactive and it was great to learn. Only suggestion for me would be for her to slow down when speaking English. This tour was worth more than I paid. Also I did not see others tipping which is unfortunate and tour guides make their money from this.
