Our group of five senior citizens was lucky enough to have the tour to ourselves. Jimene and our boat driver (who grew up in the Xochimilco canals) were warm, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. We appreciated their knowledge and utter respect for the traditions and history of the chinampas.

We loved learning about the agriculture of the chinampas, singing the traditional songs for Day of the Dead, and mindful meditation while floating through the Canal de los Sabinos. It was an enchanting tour and the peacefulness of the canals permeated our experience.

None of us wanted to take the party boats with unlimited alcohol, and this tour hugely surpassed our expectations for an educational and historical experience. If you have a chance to go with this tour, it will make your visit to Mexico City worthwhile, regardless of what else you see and do.

What a magical experience! We took the sunrise tour and I don't think I'll ever experience something like that again. Our guides were great, they made it fun, shared history and stories about Xochmilco and the creation and importance of the chinampas. It was a small intimate group, beautiful experience, I'd recommend it 100%!

Relaxing tour with great hosts and fun activities.

Unique experience, away from the crowds, a moment of peace full of surprises & interesting stories about nature, traditions & culture. Thanks you so much, Karie, Alan & Carmen for this unique experience!
