Approximately one hour boat ride through the canals of Xochimilco. If the client so wishes, they can decide to purchase the food service on the boat. (40 minute transfer from the Aztec stadium)
A stop is made so that you can take a photo outside the stadium as well as walk around the university campus (1 hour transfer from Peralvillo)
We will visit on foot one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in the city where we will tell you about the architecture and folklore of the neighborhood. (20-minute transfer from the Olympic Stadium)
We will visit the exterior of the Frida Kahlo Blue House Museum so that travelers can take all their photos (in case they have tickets, the time for entry can be adjusted).
We visited the exterior of the best stadium in the world, this is a brief stop for photographs since due to the renovations, access to the stadium is not available (30-minute transfer from Coyoacan)
We will visit the silver workshop of the master Rafael Catalogo, one of the best master goldsmiths in the country. At this stop, travelers have time to purchase souvenirs if they wish. (20-minute transfer from the starting point)
Absolutely loved this tour! Our tour guide, Chris, was super knowledgeable about the history and culture of CDMX and made the experience even more interesting. We loved the whole experience from start to finish, and it was definitely worth the money. Xochimilco is a MUST-see and was definitely one of our favorite parts of the tour. Highly recommend! 🇲🇽✨
It was a once in a lifetime experience but it was too short. Only an hour but still worth it. The guide and the driver from Ortega travel was good. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. Answers all questions that our group would ask them. I would highly recommend them.
It was a great experience . Frida was our tour guide and she was very knowledgeable and friendly. She was always looking for ways to please us , giving us information and make our time on the trafic more enjoyable . I will recommend this tour to a friend . Thank you Frida and your team for a wonderful day .
Tour guide was great. Itinerary was good. The only drawback was the long traffic jam but it is common in Mexico City. Bring lots of patience for this tour.
We have done many tours on vacation and unfortunately this was the worst tour our family has been on. Cons: 1. One of the spots (in the complete wrong direction of Xochimilco) of the tour was to visit a jewerly store! This wasted about 2 hours of time (getting there and time in the store). Other than the fact this artist designed the main necklace in "The Titanic" there was no reason to go here. Complete waste of time. 2. When the tour stopped at any of the spots, there was no clear direction given by the guide on how long we were stopping or what time people needed to be back on the van. So we spent ALOT of time waiting for the straggles to return. 3. We got to Xochimilco around 1:00 and had about an hour on the boat in the canal. It was max capacity on the canal and we only went about half a mile, docked next to a cooking boat, had a very mediocre lunch on the boat, turned around and came back. I've heard Xochimilco has alot of history - we didn't get much of any explanation on the history/cultural significance of the place. It was a complete tourist trap. Apparently the local kids all use it to bring booze, rent a boat for an hour, and have a party. 4. The tour was conducted in both Spanish and English. Have the guide have to explain everything twice meant he didn't really have time to go into depth of any specific place or answer questions in the moment. While guide was friendly, his english was not as great as I would have expected for a tour guide. Overally I can't recommend this tour. I would also not recommend going to Xochimilco on the weekend. It might be worth going if you go during the week and very early in the morning. Forget about it after mid-morning.
Chris was a great tour guide and made the day pleasant. We were with mostly families that spoke Spanish, and we were the only English speaking family. Chris split his time equally between us. It was a lovely tour and provided an easy time for my mother who is older and had some trouble doing a lot of walking
Tour guide was very knowledgeable of his town and community. Really felt the pride he has for the community and art work.
This was such a lovely tour if you’re looking for an intro to Mexico City and its culture. . First, the booking process was super seamless as Cris confirmed arrival and pickup. Our tour guide, Fernando, was super knowledgeable of the different sites around Mexico City. The boat ride at Xochimilco was the highlight for me. It was a fun ride and the food was good. My only advice is to remember to bring pesos for tips throughout the experience.
My husband and I had a great experience with Chris. He honored our request to pick us up from our hotel and drop us back at the end. Our hotel was 25 min from the meeting point so this was very helpful. Chris kept us engaged with history and culture on the tour. Everything went smoothly, I highly recommend for first time visitors to CDMX to definitely visit and experience Xochimilco. We have experienced riding a gondola in Venice and Bangkok but Xochimilco was a more fun atmosphere with Mariachi plus you can order food. Don’t think twice you won’t regret it!
The whole tour was very good, Fernando was very kind and his explanations were very complete.
Great! both the guide and the driver, with excellent attention and at all times safeguarding the safety of the passengers, desire fulfilled, you had my doubts ,about traveling on tour, it was the best decision, super recommend them to all nationals and foreigners if they want to know the city
