This was so much FUN! Honestly, what made it so great was how easy everything was. It completely took the stress out of trying to hire a boat on our own and figure out the logistics, which is something we knew we wanted to do in Mexico CIty. The setup and layout were fantastic, and the tour was really well structured from start to finish. Everything flowed smoothly, and we were able to just relax and enjoy the atmosphere, the music, and the drinks. Fernando, our guide, was amazing — so passionate, welcoming, and clearly loved what he does. He kept the energy up and made sure everyone was having a great time. If you’re looking for a fun, carefree way to experience the canals with great food, mezcal, and a lively vibe, this is absolutely the way to do it!

Gustavo was great, a good host and guide for the tour. It was just my wife and I so it was nice having such a great guide. I hope anyone doing the boat rides gets someone as good as Gustavo. Thanks for a very nice ride.

Ivan was terrific— a lot of fun and his sidekick, Jose, made the time fly by. We came with our kids (13 and 15), and even though it’s a bit of a booze cruise, they still had a lot of fun. It was also nice to get out of the center of the city and see a different part of the area. Highly recommend!

This was a very fun tour of the canals. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable and made sure everyone was comfortable throughout. We went with our family including kids ages 10-14 and they all loved it, though would say it was more of a "booze cruise" than i was expecting (especially at 10am) so some families might prefer a different vibe. We also didn't make it to the Island of the Dolls which I was sorry to miss.
