So much fun!!

Such a fun experience! We went around 5-6pm and it was soooo much fun! We got a driver to take us to and back to our place on top of that and he was very friendly and we felt very safe! 10/10 recommend this company.

Operator response

We're so glad you enjoyed it! Just come and have fun; those of you who paid us with transportation included don't need to worry about anything!

Best Xochimilco boat ride

The boat ride in Xochimilco was absolutely amazing. I had 18 friends and family join me, and our host went above and beyond — providing beers, guacamole, chips, sodas, and excellent tequila. They made the experience extra special by hanging a birthday banner just for me, which felt so thoughtful. We even hired a mariachi band to come on board and play while we cruised down the canal. It was truly a highlight of my trip, and something all of my guests, from ages 3 to 75, will remember fondly.

Operator response

I'm very glad you enjoyed it. At Livelizu our goal is for all our customers to be satisfied.

Chochimilco, you can skip this walk.

The shortest ride costs 1,200 pesos. When we arrived we saw that there was room for at least 10 people, but you can only go with people who are already with you, you can not form larger groups with other people to cheat the tour. I would not do it again, because you navigate through a channel, with nothing very attractive.

Operator response

On Tripadvisor there are packages for less than 5 people AND also shared with More people, book directly through our link and we include more time, tequila and beer as well as bilingual guide

A Beautiful Experience

Elizú is a wonderful host that is my go-to any time I visit. Any time I’ve brought friends, he’s been an amazing guide in bringing people into the lovely and historical experience of Xochimilco. Don’t miss out!

Expensive

I’m form Mexico and I brought my Irish friends to Xochimilco and I think the price is to high even I’m from mexico. I think this company charges double the price so I was very disappointed. You have to negotiate for everything as they charge you more if you are not local. Is a shame! Apart form the cost the expire de was good and our guide was nice

Traten de llegar y contratar directamente con nosotros, cuando hay intermediarios no es lo mismo!
