Pancho and the canal boat tour - Xochimilco canal boat tour was a fun experience. Tuesday morning was a great time to be on the canals with few boats out and much quieter than the weekends. Pancho was a great guide, with a wealth of knowledge, having grown up in this district. It was one of the highlights of our trip.

Hands down, the best tour... - Hands down, the best tour experience! I’d only do it again with the Ivans—they made it unforgettable. It was fun from start to finish, full of laughs, great vibes, and seriously amazing taquitos. If you’re thinking about booking, don’t hesitate—just make sure the Ivans are your guides!

Great Energy from Hosts Camille and Pancho - The canel cruise is full of laughs with games and activities meticulously planned by our hosts. Hibiscus tacos and carajillo are great . We made our own Paloma or Michelada. The karaoke challenge is super fun and everybody is so happy and passionate.

So much fun! - This tour was great! Leslie was an amazing tour guide. She had activities planned for the whole time. It was interactive and it was great to learn. Only suggestion for me would be for her to slow down when speaking English. This tour was worth more than I paid. Also I did not see others tipping which is unfortunate and tour guides make their money from this.
