The guide and included transportation were nice. I’ve done regular Xochimilco and it was better. I expected to see more light displays as pictured in the ad. Also, I could hear/understand the Catrina and I’m bilingual. For the price, I expected so much more. The food was delicious. Overall, pretty disappointing.
Aprovechando que eres bilingüe te contesto en español. Lamento que no haya sido lo que esperabas, el precio es así porque le dimos un sueldo digno a cada uno de los participantes. Sé que las experiencias en general en México son baratas a costa de pagar mal a la gente y no está bien. Respecto a los "light displays", el ambiente debe ser solemne y respetuoso (lo siento no es un bar). Por favor te invitamos a que siempre que reserves un tour leas la descripción antes de reservar. ¡Te deseamos lo mejor, gracias! :)
A great experience from the moment you arrive until you leave. The guides very attentive and polite but the best was the decoration of the boat and the typical Mexican food. If you like culture and know new places I recommend this tour. Thank you very much for the experience.
I had this experience in Mexico City last november 2021, It was great from beginning to end!!! ❤️ I was really looking for an experience like this because It envolves culture and fun at the same time. Alejandro was all the time communicating with us and answered all our questions We loved dinner that was a mexican buffet, we also had a delicious hot chocolate and pan de muerto that was just awesome! It was such a great experience to live this mexican tradition in a place like xochimilco thats full of magic and to hear those legends OMG! 🤯 I highly recommend to everyone who reads this to live this experience! It really worths It! I was super happy!
The experience was amazing. The tour guides made us spend a magical night. I would love to go back on another tour.
It was an amazing experience, me and my friends had a really good time, we been at xochimilco on 2017 and it was awesome but on November's 2021 it was incredible just an amazing experience because of deathday's, the food and the team were beyond my expectations, thank you so much we definitely come back on 2022
If your looking for an unforgettable experience then this is the one for you. The attention to detail, food and stories will make this a wonderful night time experience. I’m looking forward to bringing more of my family and friends back. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and passionate so your in for a treat. 🙌 hands down recommend this adventure if your ever in the city.
Living the experience of Dia de Muertos is totally recommended. Everything was well organized and the tour guide was very nice.
It was one of the best experiences I have ever lived on a tour, it was magical, Alejandro and in general the guides made us feel confident from the beginning. The food was delicious, the cooks were traditional and everything looked very Mexican. Loved it, I'll definitely book it next time I get back.
I hate to write this because the people were so nice and they were trying. We got thru dinner fine. After that we just sat in the boat doing nothing. It was uncoordinated and confused. Every so often they’d move it but then nothing. We sat so long every other boat left. That’s when they finally started the show which was akin to ghost stories around the campfire. I reached down to get my bag only to discover the boat had taken on water and my belongings were soaked. By the time we got back to shore the toilets were locked. There was congestion on the drive back and people were literally bailing out in the middle of the city to make their way back themselves. I spent the last 3 hours of the night wishing I hadn’t booked the tour.
I'm sorry about this situation, but as you can see the city is a chaos rigth now, i want to apologize and offer to you a 50% discount in any of our experiences.
