Xochimilco Tourist Trap! Don’t Go

1.00SO DISAPPOINTING- WE WASTED MOST OF THE DAY - HOURS- IN THE CAR TRAVELING FROM PLACE TO PLACE-this was not clear from the write up. Need to have done much more research and have taken a geography lesson to realize that this was not a walking tour, but we were being taken by car from place to place. WHAT A COLOSSAL WASTE OF TIME! The CANALS: THE MOST TOURISTY AND COMMERCIAL THING. We were one of LITERALLY 100’s of boats that clogged this “canal” (more like a tiny waterway)with everyone hawking their wares. It was not enjoyable. The “ floating garden” we were supposed to see was a plant store. The icing on the cake was a silver jewelry salesman boarded our boat to sell his wares. It might have been fun if there were ALOT of people in our party- other boats looked like they were party boats with lots of drinking. Not something we were interested in at 10:30AM. Coyoacan was a lovely town and the Frida Kahlo house was terrific, but we had already spent most of the day traveling and were exhausted by the time we got there. And we went through the museum on our own, so did not need the tour company for that. The one redeeming part was our guide, Ismael was very good.
Great experience visiting Xochimilco and Museo Casa Kahlo

5.00We had a great day with Raul, visiting Xochimilco, Coyuacan and Museo Casa Kahlo. This is a relatively new museum of Frida Kahlo family life that offers a different perspective of Kahlo. Must see!!! Transportation was excellent.

5.00We had a great time touring Mexico City, Xochimilco, and Coyoacan with Ismael. It was a beautiful day and he was very well informed on the history of each site we observed throughout the day. Ismael was also very accommodating to any changes or additional stops we wanted to make - i.e. - Churros, Tostadas, and the bathroom haha! There were no surprise extra fees and if there were additional costs (beer etc.) he let us know up front, which I appreciate. This was an amazing day and I’m glad I have some amazing silver jewelry to remember the time spent with my friends and our newest friend.

5.00Amazing Tour, spent all day with my loved one and our tour guide Raul. He was very knowledgeable and always had great facts during our whole trip. Any question we asked he would always have an answer to. We spent the morning in the famous trajineras in xochimilco and then drove down to coyoacan and had a chance to walk around and try the amazing coffee and food. Ended the day with the frida kahlo museum, and then a great ride home. I would definitely recommend this to any traveler coming to visit mexico. Party size was 2, and the tour was available in both english and spanish.

5.00Highly recommend doing this tour to explore outside of the center of CDMX! We were able to experience a lot. My family enjoyed their time. The only downside was that there was a lot of traffic due to construction for the World Cup but we were still able to go everywhere on the itinerary. I would suggest not planning anything immediately after as the traffic is unpredictable. Raul was an amazing tour guide and conducted the tour with such a positive attitude. He spoke great English and answered all of our questions. He also is a local to Xochimilco and we were able to get a truly authentic tour from him. You will not be disappointed if you have him as your guide. Thank you for a wonderful time, Raul!

5.00We had a fantastic time! The route was thoughtfully planned. Our group was just 5 people so they catered to us. Our tour guide was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and super helpful. We had plenty of time to do everything on the itinerary and never felt rushed. Raul, thank you for the great memories! Definitely recommend.
