This was SUCH a good time! Our guide, Isa, provided the perfect combination of information and fun. We drank, learned about Xochimilco and its history, had a Guac-making contest, and had a great time! Our tour stopped by the Axolotl sanctuary and got to see real Axolotls and even got to hold some reptiles. 10/10 recommend!

My family and I LOVED this tour! Our guide Yeyo was amazing and provided a fun experience, lively energy and great information on the history/people of Xochimilco. Would recommend to anyone who hasn’t visited the area!! Or even to someone that has!
This was such a fun day! Love the beautiful boats. It was so relaxing traveling down the canal. Our guide Rodrigo and our captain Mike were both awesome!
We booked this trip with family and friends, and let me tell you, it was SUCH A VIBE!! 😍 My son (9) and daughter (4) had SO much fun!! They made the experience so enjoyable for our kids and kept everyone entertained the entire time! Roa and Tony were AMAZING!! They were soooo patient, friendly, and took the time to explain everything to us. And can we talk about the organization and communication?! IMMACULATE!! 👏🏼 Before we even arrived, they sent us detailed directions with PICTURES, photos of our guides (Roa and Tony!), AND a location pin to share with our driver so we could find the meeting spot easily! Everything was so well organized from beginning to end. You can tell it’s women led!!! Thank you for an amazing adventure.
My husband and I had an amazing time with our tour. Our guide Isa was helpful, hilarious and made sure we had a fun filled afternoon. She helped coordinate mariachi and steered us right through the busy canals of vendors. If you’re looking for a party vibe with great hosts, this is it!
Such a fun group! I would highly recommend this if you are in Mexico City. This company knows what they’re doing.
rodrigo was a great host and the experience was amazing. would def do this again! i had a blast and it was such a cool time.
We had an amazing time on the 2Travel Amigas Xochimilco experience!! Both Xochitl and Andy were super attentive and made the whole experience very pleasant and memorable. Would love to do this again, highly recommend.
Fantastic tour. Yeyo & Jonathan showed us a great time and were amazing tour guides. We had a blast!
the guac competition was really fun! as well as the petting zoo and mariachi(extra charge) but worth it!
Very much so worth it!! Fantastic trip, had a ton of fun cruising down the canal and seeing this side of Mexico. Our guide Cassie was amazing, she has such a great attitude and goes above and beyond for her guests. Such a sweet woman she deserves all the best in life. All in all 10/10 experience and a must try adventure
Amazing and fun experience with the guide Cassie my girlfriend and the group of people that joined the tour. Met and made new friends in the tour and would definitely recommend.
Fun! Fun! Fun! We had a great time with Irina! Great communication, detailed directions, and a crazy good time! Would totally recommend to friends and family and would definitely do this tour again and again!
This was the second time we have taken a tour with 2travel amigas! It’s the perfect tour for friends and family. They provide alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks and the vibe is festive but just fine for children to join. I traveled with my 5, 20, 23 yo nieces. It was one of my nieces birthdays and they even decorated the boat for us! Cassie made sure it was a trip to remember!
This was one of the best experiences we had in Mexico City. It was really well organized as we were given the right amount of info and instructions before the trip. When arriving Naty greeted us and really made us feel welcome. She gave us all the history and cultural background while making it fun yet staying professional. I would advise anyone to book this if they want an unforgettable experience 🇲🇽
We had the absolute best time on this Xochimilco trajinera tour! Alejandra was an incredible host and made the entire experience so much fun from start to finish. The energy, the music, the drinks, and the food were amazing. If you are visiting Mexico City, this is a must-do. Highly recommend!
Naty was lovely! For two quiet couples, she kept it lively with games and drink offerings - and even helped translate with some vendors along the canal. This was so enjoyable, we truly didn't have to worry about anything!! Would absolutely recommend this to anyone and everyone. Thank you!!!
Super fun and educational experience floating down the river with fresh cocktails and friendly people. Irina was incredibly nice and provided all the amenities.
This was so fun! The chaos of all the other boats on the water, people selling the wares and snacks, music, and varied drink options all provided a lively atmosphere. Our guide Alex was a delight. This was a really unique cultural experience. We learned about the surrounding town (only people born in the town can operate the boats) and we took the optional side stop to see the axolotls and other animals which was also worth it.
This was hands down the best CDMX activity! I would come back and book with Alex again. I didn’t know what to expect and it was so much better!!!
Our guide was Isa and I would highly recommend this experience as part of any trip to CDMX. Isa was highly knowledgeable and super fun. Nothing was limited and the guacamole we got to make was delicious. It felt like a party and we learned so much about the culture and history of Mexico and the river (and the creatures that inhabit it). It was well worth the cost. I would book again next time I’m in town ❤️
This was an amazing experience! This was my second time booking this specific tour and company and they are amazing. Yeyo was our guide and he has amazing energy and was so informational. We were stuck in traffic and delayed on making the tour and Yeyo arranged for us to be picked up at another port! I highly recommend him and this tour!
You will have lots of fun and get to meet other people from different parts of the world. Plenty of tequila to start the adventure
Our Hostess, Agry was fantastic provide us with all the information to have fun and enjoy the tour. Definitely recommended.
Naty was the guide for our tour. She was knowledgeable, and dropped some history on us alongside all of the drinks and snacks - this was a great mix of culture and festivity. Naty and her dad were incredibly friendly and my sister and had such a good time! I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Our host Yeyo made this experience Super fun, unlimited drinks, the guac Contest was fun. And the sanitarium to hold all the animals and snakes just made everything even better. Highly recommend!
2Travel Amigas was a great tour company. Irina was our guide. She was very helpful explaining the area and the history of the area. But what stood out to me was all the different groups on our boat were very quite but Irina got everyone to break the ice and within 15min we were all family! Amazing experience.
This experience was great and very friendly! They serve snacks, non-alcoholic beverages, alcoholic beverages, and water. Agry was my host and she was phenomenal. She was very attentive with everyone and making sure everyone was having fun. The vendors were also really nice. Mariachi was separate and you had to pay for each song, however it is optional. Many people on board the same boat will most likely pay for mariachi as that happened during my experience. You get to enjoy music and listening to the history/culture of Xochimilco. The guacamole making contest was super fun! I would do again with a bigger group for sure! Hopefully I have Agry again.
Such an amazing experience!! The vibes were top tier, learning about the culture and history too was so interesting! Our tour guide, Isa, was soooooo amazing and super attending! She definitely made our experience so special! Thank you 2TravelAmigas!
Andy was amazing definitely recommend her tourist skills anyday of the week 20/10 and an amazing rower
We had an incredibly fun time! Our host, Agry, was amazing. I was running a little late getting there, and she was very understanding and waited for me to arrive, which I really appreciated. By the end, it honestly felt like she was one of our friends because of how much fun we all had together. She was extremely helpful, made us any drinks we asked for, and definitely did not hold back! One of the best parts of the experience was getting to connect with new people and have fun together. I also highly recommend paying for a mariachi band if one floats by your boat. We did, and it made the experience so much more fun and was easily one of the highlights of the day. I would absolutely do this again. Thanks again to Agry for making it such a great and memorable experience!
This tour was incredibly fun and the team was extremely communicative. We thoroughly enjoyed This experience and Dana was a stellar host/guide.
I had SO much fun on this Xochimilco boat tour!! It was actually my birthday, and I decided to do this as one of my birthday activities, and I’m so glad I did because I had the BEST time. My tour guide Annie was phenomenal! She was so sweet, fun, and made sure everyone was having a good time. The whole vibe on the boat was just amazing. So many good people, good drinks, tequila, music, laughing, and just GOOD VIBES all around. I honestly met so many great people and had such a fun experience. It ended up being one of my favorite parts of my birthday and my trip to Mexico City. I would 100% do this again, and I definitely recommend booking with Annie. She really made the experience what it was! 10/10 experience. I had an absolute BLAST!!
I traveled alone to Mexico City and found this excursion. It was one of the best during my trip. I felt very safe. I met really great people and the trip guides were funny fun and fantastic. Highly recommend.
Really enjoyed the boat cruise. All well organised and slick. Andy the local guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The tequila and Mezcal drinks and cocktails were good, as was the guacamole. Would certainly recommend. We used the Metro & Tren Ligero to get to Xochimilco, and a short DiDi ride to the docks. Nice & easy, although about 90 minutes!
Great tour guide, knowledgeable and lots of fun! Great communication from the company, and easy to follow directions. Such a fun day, the time flew by!
This is my second time booking through them and both times have been absolutely wonderful!! I always have a blast and meet the coolest people!! This most recent time we had Isa as our tour guide and she was so much fun!! Our group loved her!! Anytime I hear someone mention they are going to Mexico City, this tour is one of my first recommendations!
This experience was fantastic. We joined 7 others on a boat as a group of girlfriends. And it was a perfect celebration for 2 hours on a charming boat in the most local, fun way. We had a guac making competition, played games, heard mariachi, and delicious drinks. Cassie and her partner were so thoughtful and decorated the boat for our bday and cancer surviving girlfriends. I would highly recommend both 2Travel Amigas and this experience overall. It’s one for the books! One tip: secure a trip back with your uber driver and make sure you get dropped off at the right arch. It was difficult for us to find the right dropoff stop because of all the potential entrances and boats. Get there early to avoid making the others late. They were all gracious but that was the only mild hiccup in finding the team and group. Overall one of our favorite experiences in Mexico City!
Irina and Vlad were amazing, we had the best time! We booked on a Monday which was a bit less crowded than the weekend. There was a perfect mix of history and food and drink and animal refuges and music, etc. we would highly recommend!!
Andy was a great host. The experience was fun to meet people, enjoy the open bar, and make guacamole. The host made it very interactive and it was a great experience.
It was a magical day in Xochimilco. Floating along the colorful canals, listening to the upbeat Mariachi music, and soaking in the traditional atmosphere, made it an unforgettable experience."
Great time! Guide was excellent. The real deal fit with all you can drink & eat. Mariachi will come on board for an affitional cost
We had such a great experience in Xochimilco, and a huge thank you to Naty for making it so special! She was incredibly attentive, kind, and made sure my daughter felt included throughout the entire tour. 💕 She really went above and beyond to make sure we were having a great time. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you’re visiting Mexico City! Definitely an experience we’ll remember. 🇲🇽✨
Cassie was absolutely amazing! From the moment we met her she was warm, fun and genuinely lovely, and she made the whole Xochimilco experience so much better than I expected. Everything was incredibly well organised, but never felt organised — it just felt effortless and fun. She was constantly making sure everyone was having a great time, had everything they needed and felt included, while still keeping the whole experience moving perfectly. She was thoughtful, helpful, funny and just an all-round wonderful person to spend the day with. Xochimilco itself is such a unique experience, but Cassie is what made it memorable. If you’re lucky enough to get her as your guide, you’re in very good hands. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough — thank you Cassie for such a brilliant day!
Our guide, Yeyo, and boat operator, Luis, were amazing hosts! We all get to know each other really well and they were both knowledgeable about the area and history. Yeyo made the experience very enjoyable and kept in communication leading up to the meeting point. The experience during the ride was so fun and couldn’t have asked for anything better!
Yeyo, was a wonderful guide he made the whole experience fun for my daughters and I. The guacamole contest was fun and there was so much to do.
It was a good first time experience Busy Saturday Guide Isa was knowledgeable and made it fun.
Andy was such an excellent manager! She was super nice and knows so much about the history of Mexico in general. Her hospitality was 2nd to none. Luis was also an excellent driver guiding through busy traffic, super impressive!
We had the best time. Great group, great guides, great experience. Would 100% recommend this excursion!!
Our travel guide, Cass, was amazing! She set the vibe and it was wesome! Honestly as a semi local it was a pretty amazing experience and I would do it again.
