Exclusive Floating Adventure Tour of Xochimilco small groups
Description
Xochimilco is Mexico's famous system of pre-Hispanic canals. Just like in ancient Tenochtitlan, it features chinampas, an ancestral farming method unique in the world, inherited from the Aztec culture for the construction of their incredible city. Due to its cultural importance, the canals of Xochimilco were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. This immersive tour is not just a trip: it is a celebration of colors, flavors, and centuries-old traditions that will leave you with unforgettable memories. Trajinera Extravaganza: Climb aboard a colorful trajinera adorned with vibrant flowers and sail through the tranquil canals of Xochimilco in style, surrounded by stunning scenery. The tour includes round-trip transfer from your accommodation to the dock and back.

¡Gracias por tu reseña! Nos alegra que hayas disfrutado del paseo y que Rodrigo y Alejandro hayan hecho la experiencia aún más especial. ¡Esperamos verte pronto de nuevo! 🌿🛶
This was the first time my husband and I ever used a guided tour. Our tour guide Isaac was outstanding. From the moment we met him, it felt like we were exploring with an old friend. Isaac was warm, friendly and knowledgeable. He shared so much history and unique facts in a fascinating and fun way. We enjoyed the guided tour in the Xochimilco and also had an enriching experience at the mezcal and tequila museum. For a first time guided tour, we couldn’t have imagined anyone better than Issac! We highly recommend Isaac and Chill n’ Go tours!
Cynthia was a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. She easily switched between explanations in Spanish for me and in English for my wife. She helped us to get a good understanding of the life of the locals who have lived on the man made islands in Xochimilco for many generations.
Thanks Sr that was a lovely and funny tour, Many thins to learn and share. My best regards for you and your wife.
We are both using canes, and our crew could not have been more accommodating, and helpful. Everyone had so much knowledge about this amazing place.

While this event is very "touristy", it is definitely something you should do. The driver picked me up at the hotel and dropped back. He was one time, drove safely and very nice and informative. My guide met us as we arrived and we had a boat to ourselves. My guide was excellent and told me many historical facts about Mexico City, the canals, and answered my questions about the history of the city. The driver and guide were 5 Stars!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and honest review! We’re so glad you decided to join the experience — even if it’s a bit “touristy,” we believe it’s a special and memorable way to connect with the culture and history of Mexico City. It’s wonderful to hear that both your driver and guide made you feel safe, welcome, and informed throughout the day. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words — they’ll be thrilled to know they made your experience a 5-star one! Thanks again for choosing us. We’d love to see you back for more adventures soon!
This was my favorite activity in Mexico City! Definitely was worth doing. We had a driver come and pick us up at the hotel and drive us down to the docks where we met our guide Rodrigo. Once on the boat, we were offered drinks and away we went! Recommend going on a Saturday with all the locals and enjoying eating, drinking and all the mariachi music. Rodrigo helped us negotiate and would communicate anytime we showed interest in other boats. He also answered lots of questions and provided good historical background for Xochimilco and Mexico City.
Omar was a fantastic and extremely thoughtful tour guide who had a ton of knowledge about the ecological environment and history of Xochimilco. He tailored the experience perfectly to what we were looking for and it was a great way to see the area in a more relaxed manner.
Thanks for your words it was a pleasure, we hope to see you again in México city
Very knowledgeable tour guide with Omar. Vendors did not pester which was great. Traffic was a little heavy enroute to the canals but Luis was a competent driver
