7 hours Private Tour - Marianna was wonderful. She is knowledgeable about her work, thoughtful, kind, enthusiastic & entertaining. It was a treat. I highly recommend her. Thank you so much! Will be in touch when I visit CDMX again.

Great time - Very fun to see all the parties on the canals and get to know the interesting area. It was Holy Week, so lots of locals were on vacation and obviously having a great time.

A festive afternoon - Frank was a great guide! The Xochimilco experience would have been daunting without him and he made sure every step went smoothly. The reviews of Xochimilco are all over the place but we found it very enjoyable and not at all as touristy as some claimed. It’s fun to be surrounded by so many celebrations and the many opportunities for a spur-of-the moment experience with food or having mariachis come aboard. We would do it again for sure! And the walk through Couoacán was very interesting to see so many colonial buildings still in use!

Excellent, highly recommend - This was a brilliant, worthwhile tour. We got to see the canals as well as lots of hidden parts of a district we would not otherwise have seen, all without any hassle as we had an excellent guide with his own transport.

Great tour experience - Great guide. Really friendly and a wealth of knowledge and information. If you're looking to get a bit of a sense for the culture and history of the area I strongly recommend this tour.

Best tour we have done! - This is by far one of the best tours we have done. Our guide spoke amazing english, had a great sense of humour, and was incredibly knowledgeable about the areas we went to. We’ve done tours like this in the past in other countries where we’ve been taken to places and felt pressured to buy things, never once did this happen on this tour. We were asked if we wanted to go somewhere in particular for lunch, we were happy to take our guides recommendation and it was amazing food. He even pointed out some places nearby where we’re staying so we will probably try them out too! We loved every minute of it, can’t recommend this tour enough :)

Xochimilco & Coyoacán - great day - This was a fantastic day. Very relaxing on the boat - Xochimilco. Amazing how they manage to move these boats , especially when it’s almost gridlock at points. Eric our guide was also great , went out of his way to show us the best of Mexican food in Coyoacán. Gave us lots of information. Let us walk around by ourselves when we wanted to. Can’t recommend Eric enough.

The lake that was once Mexico - Our original guide had an illness in the family and we were assigned another. He was very knowledgeable and tired to tailor the trip to our needs. He was a very good conversationalist in the car and was frank and engaging in conversation

Delightful outing with a minor irritant - We were very impressed with the enthusiasm and vast knowledge of our guide Gerardo, and learned and experienced a lot on this excursion to Xochimilco and Coyoacan. We were taken aback though by one man who sat with us in the boat during the whole Xochimilco outing, and revealed his true motives at the end, when he opened a briefcase full of jewelry and prevailed on us to buy something. Hence only four stars.
