Private City Tour: Frida Kahlo, Coyoacan, and Xochimilco Exploration with Local Interaction

The best way to get to know a place within the city is by visiting it with true local people, during our tour we will be interacting with them. As this is a completely private tour, we can adjust to the needs that are often required.

Keep in mind that due to the museum occupancy, the Frida Kahlo museum is the last point to touch.

Fun & informative day!! - What an amazing day!! Greeted at the door with water and an energetic tour guide! Headed to the boats first, was amazing being so early, as we could truly appreciate the waterways. Had time for a cerveza & birthday song from local Mariachis. Wish we had more time in Coyachan but what we saw was impressive. The Blue House was impressive!!! Loved Jaimie, our tour guide, he was awesome!!

Fantastic! - My family has taken Viator tours all over the globe and after this excursion agreed that Patricia was among, if not THE, best tour guide we've ever had. It felt more like traveling with a (brilliant) friend than a guide. She's fun, engaging, and so full of amazing knowledge. I will definitely be saving her card for my next visit to CDMX. Xochimilco, Coyoacan, and the Frida Kahlo house were all highlights of our trip. Book this one - ask for Patricia!

Fantastic - It was an absolute pleasure attending this tour. The ride on the trajinera in Xochimilco was fun, followed by an informative walk of the area of central Coyoacán, a beautiful church, Parroquía San Juan Bautista (that was a great refuge from the incredible deluge of rain!), the great market, followed by the amazing Casa Azul. Our tour guide Leon was a pleasure to meet being very friendly and engaging. His knowledge of not only Coyocàn, but that of Mexico City and Mexico in general was very interesting and useful. A fantastic day that was definitely made so by our wonderful guide, as well as our great driver! Muchísimas gracias.

Epic Tour; Incredible Guide - My husband and I did a private tour of Xochimilco, Coyoacan, and the Frida Kahlo museum with Patricia and I cannot recommend her and this tour enough!!! I’ve seen several negative reviews of Xochimilco due to crowds, but Patricia took us to Xochimilco first to avoid these crowds. It was relaxing and beautiful! We were finishing up as the crowds were rolling in. We were also the first tourists to take one of the local stray dogs on the boat tour with us (our claim to fame!)- which I highly recommend- we’re dog lovers and the pup rested comfortably in the shade the entire ride (and also ate well- we fed him some of our tacos). Patricia gave us another unique experience in Coyoacan, taking us through one of the local markets where we stopped to see many of her friends along the way, before ending at the Frida Kahlo museum. We tried Veracruz coffee, cactus, Mexican chocolate, and prickly pears-such a treat. Patricia took great interest in the type of experience we wished to have and filled in the drive time with lots of history and culture. She also told us ahead of time what to expect with vendors selling items, which was appreciated. She gave us an incredible tour that also had a taste of being a local. It was very obvious that she is experienced, liked, and well known among all of the stops along our way. Patricia is a class act tour guide- friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and personable. This was by far the best guided tour we’ve ever taken. Take a private tour and request Patricia- I promise it’ll be an epic time!

Another Great Experience with Viator - We had an incredible experience with Viator during our trip to Mexico City. Our two guides (Jaime for Xochimilco/Coyoacan/ Frida Khalo museum and Frank for Teotihuacan/Basilica) were absolutely amazing! They were exceptionally patient with my elderly mother, who walked slowly, and my husband, who had to deal with the revenge of Montezuma and needed some urgent bathroom breaks. Both guides were knowledgeable and provided fantastic explanations about the rich history and culture of Mexico. Their English was clear and easy to understand, making the tours even more educational and enjoyable. Additionally, their driving was safe and their answers to our questions were thorough and engaging. We couldn't have asked for a better tour experience. Highly recommend both tours and tour guides for anyone visiting CDMX!

Mexico in July - Loved Casa Azul. Our tour guide Armando did a good job picking us up and dropping us off in a timely manner. We liked that he helped us with the street vendors when it came to pricing.
