Canals and Kahlo - This was our first time in CDMX and it could not have been more fun! Our guide , Richardo was top notch and showed us Xochimilco canals on a very peaceful trajinares ( boat) ride. Next we headed to Coyoacan to the Frida Kahlo museum, the markets and to some of the best margaritas At Chava Los Campos Les Marquisetas I’ve ever had! After that headed to Polanco to wrap up our day! Richardo was not only accommodating but very informative. Was a fun day with him 😎

Day trip to Xochimilco and Coyoacán with stop at Friday museum - A wonderful full day with our guide Ricardo. He was great about explaining what we were seeing and very patient with our questions. For travelers like us who speak no Spanish it was great to have a guide who spoke fluent English.

Awesome day in Mexico City - Ricardo is the man! Don’t hesitate. Great experience. The museum and boat ride are a must. We were a bit sick from food poisoning the night before and found this to be the perfect level of adventure.

We had an amazing day... - We had an amazing day traveling to Xochimilco and Coyoacán with stops at both the Diego Rivera Museum and Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo's studio. Brandon, our guide, was incredible. He was so knowledgeable and considerate, but the best part was how much he loved his city and sharing it with others. I highly recommend this tour.

Great Guide, Loved Coyoacan - We had a really great time with our awesome guide, Cesar. He was very accommodating when we had to delay our start time and was personable and polite throughout! The boat ride was fantastic with great photo ops plus snacks, but do keep in mind that a ride is almost two hours so make sure you have good company! The Coyoacan area was awesome— was sad that we discovered it at the end of our trip. There was lots to explore but we only had an hour there— make sure you budget your time and stay longer! We passed by Kahlo’s house and took pictures. We couldn’t get tickets for that or the museum because of the busy time of year. This tour was more experience-based and less historical so keep that in mind. Private car and boat ride were amazing for our family!

Flexible itinerary and accommodating tour guide - The tour guide is knowledgeable about the area and accommodates our requests. He is friendly, responsive, and reliable. Along the boat ride, an extra fee is needed to see the amphibian attraction.
