Gabriel and Diego were so nice and friendly! They were very knowledgeable and provided us with a lot of information on the tour. I felt safe the whole time and taken care of. Would love to have them as guides again.

Our tour guide, Gabriel, was great. Very knowledgeable and he did his best to make the experience a good one. Xochimilco was lovely. However, if you are considering booking this tour, you should know that the tour is really 2 in 1 (Coyoacan and Xochimilco), with the opportunity to pay extra for actually entering the Frida Kahlo museum, which may or may not happen. When I booked, my ticket said “Admission to Frida Kahlo Museum (if option selected)” and further down there is a green check next to “Entry/Admission - Frida Kahlo Museum.” That makes it seem like option is selected, right? Turns out that is not the case and my child and I were denied entry because elsewhere it said "NO Includes Frida Kahlo Museum" - which apparently means “does not include Frida Kahlo Museum.” I complained to Viator and they were not sympathetic to my request for a partial refund.
Uncomfortable bus (we were the last ones on and had to sit in child size seats at the back and could not even see out the windows or hear the guide); too much time on boats and very touristy and tour added a stop to see water animal museum for some travelers in the group. Waste of time.
Excellent experience with our guide Sarai! She is very knowledgeable and full of interesting history and facts and stories. The travel was very comfortable. The xoximilco experience was a lot of fun! Saw some beautiful sites on the rest of the tour and learned a lot. Would recommend to anyone!
Everything was great convent pickup options we did the option with the Frida khalo museum great and not rushed at all
Very nice experience ! The boat ride was nice and the Frida khaki museum was very fun to see The rides were easy and very clean
Gabriel and Luis were wonderful guides and driver during our trip. Gabriel made sure that we saw everything in the city. It was a full day packed with history and culture!
Gabriel and Luis were absolutely amazing! Gabriel shared so much knowledge about the 3 places we went to and he was so personable and accommodating!
Our guide Gabriel was great! Very friendly, passionate, and caring about his group and their experience
Great tour, great Guide! Guido was very. Well informed, and very hospitable. Well worth it. Had a fabulous time!
Great tour! Xochimilco was the best and we had a great time on the canals, with opportunities for drinks and fresh food and mariachis. We just got a taste of Coyoacan and I’ll be back for more. Gabriel was a knowledgeable guide with good tips on local things to do and see beyond our tour stops. I would have welcomed more free time to shop but this was a great intro to several destinations.
Gabriel and Marco were great driver/guide! Gabriel did a great job of providing info, answering questions, and communicating logistics. The van was comfortable, and the ride was scenic. The boat ride was nice and I enjoyed the walk thru the neighborhood and stop at Fridah house. Only downside was that it was a busy weekend in CDMX, and to avoid traffic, the operator asked that we meet at a location rather than get picked up as described in the listing. This added rider share costs on both ends that I was not anticipating. Having the listing updated for busy weekends would be helpful in providing accurate info. At the very least, having the meeting spot located on the listing would have allowed me to book a hotel in the vicinity while my trip was flexible.
Gabriel was a great guide, he’s very communicative and attentive to our needs. If you want someone that doesn’t make you feel like your listening to a guide on headphones, Gabriel is your guy! 🤙🏽
Gabriel was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable. It was a long tour so bring tennis shoes and sunglasses. Overall, recommend!
Such a great day enjoying a taste of what Mexico city has to offer. Our tour guide Gabriel was friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. The pick up and drop was convenient, getting picked up from out hotel door. Frida's house was definitely a highlight
Our tour guide Gabriel and driver Luis were amazing! Super kind and very helpful
Great experience! Our guide and driver, Gabriel and Luis, were very informative, friendly, and helpful. We felt very comfortable and safe throughout the tour. 100% recommend booking with them.
Our guide Gab was pretty resourceful and knowledgeable about the culture and history of Mexico. He was attentive and willing to help. Our driver Marcos kept the Van clean and he drove well. But the traffic was very bad and we spent too much time in the traffic jam, which gives some dents for the entire trip experience. I’ll recommend this tour my friends but I’ll advise them not to come at the time when major events are on.
very good organization for free dajaro musiam!
Our tour guy Gabriel was so kind and very helpful.
Great tour, with so many significant things to see. Thanks Gabriel!
Gabriel was excellent showing us beautiful highlights of Xochimilco, Coyoacan, and finally to the spectacular Frida Kahlo Museum. He let us move at our own pace and enjoy these sights and stop for refreshments. We really appreciated all the context he gave us. And most surprising was the visit to Museo Anahuacalli—it displays some Diego Rivera’s collection of pre-Hispanic art in a stunning setting. And the views of the city from the terrace were amazing. Just a great day!
Excellent Guide. Great Tour.
Captain Luis and Sarai picked us up promptly and we had a wonderful time floating the canals of Xochimilco and exploring Coyoacán. Our guide Sarai was very patient and speaks English extremely well. I highly recommend this day tour in Mexico City.
Jam packed day with a lot to see. Fun experience. Our guide Gabriel was very informative and overall we had a good time.
Danae was nice and professional, she answered every question we had and showed us a delicious spot to eat.
Guide came in a private car for all four of us to squeeze for more than an hour’s ride one way with no airconditioning at all and subjected to highway traffic smells. Utterly not professional and during the boat ride there was a man selling silver and I felt pressurized. Left the tour halfway as we could not endure the car ride and it made me sick. Honestly did not expect this at all and would not recommend.
Miguel did an awesome job explaining all the history. He was very accommodating to our needs.
Gabriel was a fantastic guide for this day trip. You cover off 3 of the big attractions when in the city and he was very knowledgeable on everything. He was very patient also.
Gabriel was very informative
Gabriel, our tour guide was dedicated and knowledgeable.
Gabriel was the most fantastic tour guide! We had an adventure filled day and he was so knowledgeable about everything. He was able to tailor the tour for our needs and accommodate what we were interested in.
Great tour! We really feel like we experienced the area and learned a lot about the history and culture here. The Frida Kahlo museum was very interesting but I had hoped to see more of her artwork.
The tour was well organized. Our guide, Xavier, was professional, kneadable, friendly, and courteous. All the three sites were fun and we had a good time.
It was lovely! Gabriel was beyond friendly, so so helpful, and such a joy to be around. Very informative and knowledgeable and made it worthwhile! I'd recommend!
Gabriel our guide was excellent. He showed us some unexpected places and was well versed in the history of the area. We would recommend him!

Excellent trip with Mr Gabriel Rodriquez, Bia-Mexa tours. Gabriel was punctual, professional, friendly and knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour, and strongly recommend it to everyone. Thank you.
Great 3-1 experience. Gabriel was friendly and amazing in explaining everything.
Great tour. Lots of very useful and unique information that makes a lot of sense. It definitely something i would recommend. I guide was Gabrielle and my favourite bit was the bought tour followed by Frida Khalos house.
We did a private tour, with Gabriel as our driver & tour guide. He was very engaging and knowledgeable. He also managed our time well considering the heavy tradfic around the city. Overall a time well spent
Gabriel, our guide, did a great job explaining landmarks and the deep history of the places we visited.
Great tour! Loved the boat tour & Frida museum. Hotel pickup and dropoff a major plus. Highly recommend!
I had an excellent trip I felt like a local. I got to see lots of amazing things and a really appreciated Gabriel and his explanation and tour.
I had a great experience! I was a solo traveler and felt completely safe throughout the experience. We also visited another museum that wasn’t included with the Frida Kahlo Museum, which was a nice added bonus. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it!
We had a wonderful experience on this tour of Xochimilco, and Frida's blue house museum. Our tour guide, Gabriel, did a good job keeping us informed about each location we visited. He picked us up in the morning at our hotel and returned back later that day after the tour was over which was a bonus since we did not have to worry about transportation at a meet up spot.
Wonderful experience! Gabriel is a great guide and highly recommended!
