Incredible time - This trip was truly one of a kind. Most of the boats stay in the touristic canal, this one also visits the ecological side and stops at the ajolote shrine and isla de muñecas, both of which were so worth it and a must-see. Photos don’t really do justice to the beauty of Xochimilco, it’s something you have to see in person. Eddie was a fantastic guide, he kept the fun and drinks flowing, and really encouraged us to get to know our fellow passengers. He was very knowledgeable and funny, 10/10. Jesus was a pro rower and kept us safe in the busy canals. I received detailed communication via WhatsApp the evening before regarding the meeting point including photos and directions. Lunch was included and there was a vegetarian option which was much appreciated. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in visiting Xochimilco!

The best guide experience- terrific English too! - Luis and the rower were absolutely wonderful on our tour along the canal and to Doll Island. Luis was fun and kept an expert attention to detail of providing history and just the type of activities you wanted from the experience. 10 out of 10!
