I booked my tour three weeks in advance everything was confirmed and a day before my Frida Khalo tour was canceled. Very disappointed! Just because no one in my group had a ticket to Frida khalo. They should have assigned me with a different group. Also I purchased the package 3 hour tour in Xochimilco and two hour in Coyoacan and we just spent 1 hour in Xochimilco. Tour guide said complain to TripAdvisor not ME! Very disappointed!!

Later, you will visit another chinampa with orchard, where you can buy souvenirs, crafts or plants.

Very poorly organized. We booked weeks in advance, didn't get us Tix for La Casa Azul, changed pick up times, left us hanging for 2.5 hours, wanted to skip Coyoacán tour altogether and go straight to Xochimilco so I had to insist we see Coyoacán (wth?) and we spent 1/2 hour before getting back on van to Xochimilco. I would book elsewhere. Very disappointing.
We took a morning tour of Xochimilco, which was absolutely lovely. Arlet was a sweet guide, she did a great job answering all of our questions and working with me on things like pickup time and location. I really appreciated her knowledge and flexibility. Our tour lasted from about 8:30am to 3:30pm, for a total of 7 hours. We did spend a bit of time in traffic, but it was definitely worth it. Crowds were small when we were at Xochimilco, when we got there only a few of the trajineros were out. By the time we left it was busier though. I would say if you're looking for a party atmosphere, you probably want to do a later afternoon tour but if you're interested in the history and the experience then morning is better.
The driver never showed up on time, and there was no way to communicate with the company as they didn't respond to texts until too late. After waiting over 30 minutes past the scheduled pick-up, we finally got a call that we were being picked up at 10a instead of 830a. Also, we were supposed to go to the Blue House Frida Kahlo museum but were told they couldn't get tickets and took us to the Red House Case Kahlo other museum. We were very disappointed in the lack of communication, misleading plan for tickets to the popular Frida Kahlo museum with an inadequate substitution last minute and driver showing up 90 minutes late. We wouldn't recommend the tour for these reasons. Once we had a private driver/guide, he was friendly, informative and helpful, but the company overall provided a bad service.
Pickup was late with no communication, leaving us waiting without any information about timing or next steps. Tour logistics lacked clarity, and we were often unsure where to go or what to expect. Additionally, we were charged 400 MXN for food that appeared to be worth closer to 100 MXN; we do not drink alcohol, which reduced the value further. At the end of the tour, the guide was rude and insisted we get off at a different location than the pickup point, instructing us to speak with a salesman without any prior explanation. This resulted in additional Uber travel.
Pato and Jesus your best guides and you will enjoy every part of the trip. The tour is conducted in the selected language and their recommendations are safe and makes the experience even better than planned
Disappointing experience — the tour was misleading, as it didn’t match the description. Some activities were missing or rushed, and it didn’t feel worth the price. First, the day before the tour, I was contacted by someone via Whatsapp who provided the incorrect name of the driver and guide. We got picked up around 7:55am, but drove around for over an hour picking up the rest of the group. Our first stop was at a silver shop (not on the itinerary) and it was more like a tourist trap to lure you into buying their silver products. What a waste of an hour there. Then we headed to Coayacan, stopped in front of Frida Kahlo's house, and then to the park where the church was. The itinerary states we were supposed to stop at the Coayocan market, which is where I wanted to go, but that didn't happen. Also, we were told not to eat too much because there was food at Xochimilco. Next we stopped at a university (also not on the itinerary) and wasted some time there. Finally, we got to Xochimilco, after 1:30pm. Starving, we got on the trajinera only to find out we had to pay for food (description states snacks are included). There were no snacks provided. Also, the food we ordered was not good at all. The ride was short, we didn't stop at a chinampa, and I was just so disappointed that I was ready to head home. Overall, the experience was underwhelming, to say the least. All I wanted was to spend more time in Coayacan and Xochimilco; I didn't pay to go to a silver store or go tour a university. I'd avoid this tour if all you want is to go to Coayacan and Xochimilco.
Great day trip with our great tour leader Brandon. He picked us up on time at our hotel then first stop was a great one and a half our boat ride in Xochimilko. A must to see this Unesco world heritage site. The second stop was Coyoacan where we walked about this charming neighborhood and had a taco lunch (pay one your own). The final stop was a brief walk to the Frida Kahlo house where we learned all about her life at Casa Azul. Total time (pick up and drop off) was 8 hours. Do this tour!!!
My husband and two teen daughters were very excited to experience Xochimilco. We were contacted the day before the tour with the meeting point information, our tour guide name (Sebastian) and his contact information. On the day of our tour we were running late due to heavy traffic. We contacted Sebastian (also goes by Bastian). He was very understanding and patient. Once we got to Xochimilco we were greeted by our trajinera captain aboard Rosa Maria. Sebastian shared the rich history of the area and the importance of the land to the country. While on water they had a traditional snack (tortilla with chicharrones, guacamole, nopales/cactus & cheese). They also had some drinks to purchase. There were vendors and musicians boating next to us ready for any requests. We were able to try Pulque and local food. After the relaxing boat tour we were able to do some souvenir shopping before going to Coyoacan for lunch and then Frida Kahlo’s famous Blue House museum. Overall we would definitely recommend this tour, especially with Sebastian!
Excellent service! They shared some super valuable information and made us feel confident and safe at all times. An excellent choice to get to know the city and the most emblematic places.
Excellent option with transportation from the city center, as getting to Xochimilco is not easy
It was a perfect mix of culture, party and nature. Undoubtedly, a walk I would repeat, either with friends, family or couple, because Xochimilco has a charm that infects anyone.
Definitely a unique experience to enjoy with friends in cdmx. Besides being a very authentic experience of the capital it is the most fun.
Super interesting travel with a lot of tradition Definitely recommended for anyone who wants to come and meet xochimilco
A very good experience, we had a nice time in friends, the cultural explanations were amazing, I stayed with an excellent taste in my mouth
Very good scenery and amazing experience and I think it is very nice the experience they give us and it serves that I know new places that fill us with new culture that is important to know our beautiful Mexico and also to discover new places that are magical
This very nice and entertaining Trajineras with Very Good Service, Excellent to be with Family and Friends, Nice Mood
I like it is very quiet and good tourist place, there are many things to do besides it is very accessible and is good to go with family
First book the Teotihuacan trip with this Enterprise, and then take the experience to Xochimilco with Frida Kalho Museum. It was a super fun experience, our guides Vanessa and Arlette were very funny, explanatory and amazing
If I liked this very nice landscape this nice and the experience was the best as well as the Mood and company I had that day
I found the visit pleasant and apart the company was good, the view and food I found very good, plus the tranquility of the place
The Arlette Guide very attentive, showed us many places in the areas we visited, explained each thing we asked. The beautiful place, from the very entertaining trajineras to the beautiful Frida Kalho museum. Highly recommended tour, no tickets outside.
Excellent tour, learned many new things and would go again. I was surprised with the museum and it is something I highly recommend
The tour was a perfect blend of color, history and art. We started in Xochimilco, where we navigated its canals in a trajinera decorated with flowers, the landscape full of vegetation, the experience was joyful and very picturesque. Coyoacán, a neighborhood with cobblestone streets, squares full of life and a bohemian atmosphere. The guide took us through his most emblematic points, telling us anecdotes about artists and intellectuals who have lived there. We had free time to enjoy coffee, taste churros and tour the local markets at Frida Kahlo's Blue House, where you feel the essence of the artist in every corner. Seeing his paintings, personal items and workspaces was moving and very inspiring. The guide’s explanation helped to better understand his life and work.
Excellent experience, everything was very comfortable and super entertaining people were too kind, much to the best of my life
I went with my partner this year and we were really fascinated with the Service, recommended. 1000000%🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Vanesa very cute, I had a great time father and the whole landscape was amazing, if you have the opportunity to go take advantage of it without a doubt
The visit was very well organized, our guide Brandon was very informative and was well the trajinara, I liked coyoacan as it has a lot of history
