Description

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and immerse yourself in 2 hours of pure Mexican magic. Sail through Xochimilco, the legendary canals of the Aztec empire declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in a cultural experience you'll remember forever. Your adventure begins with a welcome toast. As you board, we'll greet you with complimentary tequila and mezcal shots in containers you can take home. Then, relax! Unlimited drinks await you: beer, soft drinks, water, and tequila whenever you want, while you taste our exclusive tamarind and marzipan candies that you won't find on any other tour, accompanied by delicious premium movie theater-style popcorn to complete the experience. Authentic Mexican fun Play Mexican lotería (traditional bingo) and win a replica of the game to take home. Your local university guide will share fascinating stories as we navigate these ancient canals. Feast on a chinampa island. We disembark on an authentic chinampa (floating island) connected by its iconic bridge. Here you'll enjoy 4 Mexican tacos with fresh vegetable toppings and flavored Aztec pulque - an ancestral fermented agave drink that's the base of tequila. (Vegetarian options available) You'll have 15 minutes to explore the island, use the restroom, or purchase optional seasonal cocktails. The party continues! Back on the boat, try the traditional Michelada (Mexican beer cocktail) or if you prefer, we'll make you a refreshing margarita! While enjoying your favorite drink, participate in the recreational activities your guide has prepared for a true Mexican fiesta. Grand finale. We finish with a mezcal toast and smiles from ear to ear. Your guide will be happy to answer questions and give you insider recommendations about the city. Pressure-free experience: Unlike other tours, there are no mandatory tips here. Everything is included so you can enjoy worry-free.
