A culinary and cultural experience of the day of the dead with legends, music and food. I recommend. Horrible car traffic on the go, but it's part of the city and there's no way not to have. Very good guides. We were in a family of friends and with children. The museum Diego Rivera wonderful and was with a cocoa fair.
Dear client, Thank you so much for your feedback, unfortunately the city may be chaotic in this time of the year but we are glad you enjoyed the overall experience. Your comments help us to keep improving for you to have outstanding experiences. Hope to meet you again in Mexico real soon!
Travis Adventures was wonderful! They arranged an alternate meeting location to avoid the Day of the Dead parade traffic, then brought us to the Anahuacalli Museum and finally to Xochimilco! The tour guides were awesome, told us about the traditions and history, told stories and sang haunting songs while on the canals! It was a great experience!
