- We enjoyed with the family in the morning a quiet tour of Xochilmilco. Our guide Armando has told us a lot about Xochimilco and the history of Mexico. Highly recommended!

Fantastic - This tour of Xochimilco was lovely. As a family we wanted to see it but without all the intense partying that seems to happen on some of the other tours. This was the perfect way to get to experience it as a family. I cannot say enough good things about our guide, David. He was fantastic through every portion of the trip and went above and beyond. We will only book tours with him as much as possible in the future when we go back to Mexico City.

A Beautiful Day Shared with My Family / Fantastic Experience from Start to Finish - We had a truly memorable and enjoyable tour — a wonderful experience from start to finish. Everything was smooth, well-organized, and welcoming. The location itself was beautiful, but what made it even more special was sharing it with my family. Our guide took extra steps to make the experience even better — they were thoughtful, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. It felt like every moment was designed to be engaging and meaningful. We laughed, learned, and made memories we’ll cherish for a long time. I’m so grateful for this experience — it was everything we hoped for and more.

Excellent Xochinilco trip! - Excellent! The best river trip on my life! I enjoyed the amazing experience, sights and all the highlight that David showed us. The Mariachi song " Mujeres divinas" melted my hart with every string.

Beautiful boat ride and fun drinks - David was an amazing guide - he drove us to the area and came with us on the boat ride! . He also facilitated communication with the boat owners making sure we get good prices. We would recommend David and this tour to all friends visiting.

Friendly, Accomodating, and Engaging Driver - A very fun time. David made great conversation on the way to Xochimilco and back, and brought some nice Mezcals and beers. I had a great time singing my favorite Mexican songs with a mariachi band that came aboard the boat, and David also had a blast and felt more like a friend than just driver. After Xochimilco he was happy to drive us to the Museo de Frida Kahlo (we paid for the tickets a few weeks in advance and he was happy to accomodate our museum tour's awkward timing). After the museum he brought us out to a great restaurant and drove us home.

Thanks Hugo for a great tour guide. But the ride on the canal itself was disappointed. - It was a kind of fun thing to do. But I wouldn't going back anytime soon. The food was cut short because of the heavy traffic on the canal. Our tour guy Hugo negotiated boat rental to let us visit one of the nursery just to compensate for the most of time while waiting for other boat to pass us, which is very nice and we appreciated a lot.

Our guide Hugo ensured... - Our guide Hugo ensured good communication with us before departure and accompanied us well during the outing. However, the description of the 4-6 hour tour does not correspond at all to the reality. Fortunately, we found compensation with the claimant after negotiations. You have to adjust the tour description according to the actual duration (3 hours) .
