Of course worth it!!! They asked us to move our reservation up so we could join another group. We didnt mind it: it was a great time. As a group, we opted to hire marachi band (~$800 mxn pesos for 4 songs) Arturo was our guide: he made sure everyone had a great time! Great energy. Definitely worth it; even if traveling solo.

This is one of the best tours I've ever done! From start to end, everything was amazing. My guide was super knowledgebale and fun, providing our group a nice balance of history, culture and party. The area in itself is absolutely beautiful, so if you're looking for a truly authentic experience in Mexico, don't hesitate, this is it! I'm so glad my friends and I decided to do this.

It was an amazing experience!!! I from Mexico City and I have been in Xochimilco so many times before but this was by far the most fun I ever had in a trajinera (the boat). The tour guide, Christine was not only fun but also very knowledgeable, we learned a lot about the history of this place, the local culture and wild life, also about tequila and mezcal, and interesting facts about Xochimilco and Mexico City. She was so very high energy and making sure everyone was having fun. Isa was also very helpful from the beginning when we were making the booking and making sure we had all the information we needed for a great experience, even when the Uber driver tried to trick us to take us to a different place insisting that the Embarcadero de Cuemanco was closed, Isa texted me not to trust him because that’s very common that the Uber driver will try to take you somewhere else to make some extra money, unfortunately we were not the only ones, same thing happened to another couple in our group. Despite the unfortunate Uber experience, we had a great time and would totally recommend this tour!!!

What an enjoyable experience! Luis was punctual and easy to locate at the meeting point; he was a great guide, ensuring everyone was actively involved in the conversation. I can't wait to revisit and bring along family and friends, as I believe anyone would thoroughly enjoy this adventure. The blend of music, drinks, and dancing is fantastic, coupled with enriching cultural insights and engaging conversations. Be sure to pay attention to the details in their description – remember to bring cash and ensure your Uber drops you off at the correct location.
