Rene forgot to book my tour and one of his friends called him because they picked up my sister at the same resort. Only gave me and option to cancel or do 2 tours without the museum since he was not able to purchase Freda tickets. Very rude and un professional. Sent me a new driver and he even complained abouts the same guy. Never again. Everyone verify your tours before the date.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Mrs Ibarra; Thank you for your comment. As we spoke, we made this very unfortunate mistake and we tried to offer a solution to what we had done. Of course one of the options was to cancel and we would obviously apply for a full refund; nevertheless I have to clarify that facing the kind of customer that because of a mistake the company did wants to take advantage and gets as much as possible (as your daughter said “besides the museum refund, what other compensation will you give us?”) is very difficult. And trust me, in this company we do not always the policy “customer is always right” as we assume our mistakes, but we do not stand lacks of respect to our staff by customers. You clearly wanted to take advantage of this situation, we wanted to upgrade the transportation sending a Suburban and that is something you did not mention, nor the way you delivered the conversation. At the end it was your decision to continue with the experience without the museum; which was one of the options and of course we refunded the price of the tickets. Once again we do apologise for the mistake, as said, we tried to offer a solution, I honestly do not consider I was rude, but if not satisfying your demands is rude, then I apologise again. Thank you for your review and we hope you have a safe flight back home.

So worth it!!!

Yania_G, May 2023

The historical stories told by our guide Patricia and the diversity offered in this package from nature, and culture, to art and history. We were so well cared for by our guide Patricia… she was awesome!

Visit to Mexico City

Anthony_S, May 2023

Leon was an excellent guide! Very knowledgeable and recommended a great place for lunch. Loved the Frida Kahlo museum and Coyoacán.

Must do excursion in Mexico City

Ryan, May 2023

Had an excellent time seeing Coayocan and Xochimilco. Everything was well arranged and went smoothly. Patricia was an excellent guide giving the historical background as well fun stories about the area. Xochimilco was the highlight. It was so different than the rest of Mexico City. I still crack up thinking of these mariachi bands on a boat. Definitely a must do.

Private City Tour

Julia, May 2023

Patricia is a great guide! So knowledge and fun, the day was structured very well, boat ride, city walk and Frida Kahlo museum was so good. And never forget the cactus salad and tacos! A must do if you are in Mexico City.

Our guide, Patricia, was...

John_R, May 2023

Our guide, Patricia, was very personable and knowledgeable. She made the day go by so quickly that we were sad to leave her.

Great tour

Luanne_B, May 2023

Tour with Armando was great! Had an amazing time at all the sites. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.

Great tour!

Esther_V, May 2023

We had a great time on this tour and truly enjoyed our time with Fernando as our guide. It wasn't mentioned in the description, but we also had time to enjoy lunch in Coyocan and Fernando had a variety of recommendations. I would say the only thing we would have done differently is spend one hour less in Xochimilco and one hour more in Coyocan--but that may just be our personal preference. We would have preferred an hour more to walk around and see more of Coyocan and to hear more about its history from Fernando. We all really enjoyed the Frida Kahlo museum as well.

A poor-quality private Tour

Hung_P, May 2023

The driver / tour guide, although a nice and likeable person, does not possess the information needed for the Tour.

Best day in Mexico City!

Milly_P, May 2023

Our guide, Patricia, was fabulous! She said she was there to make our day wonderful and it was. From adjusting plans to fit our interests, to finding one of the best restaurants she fit the bill. She gave us the history of the places we visited and also local knowledge and customs-and helped us in purchasing some souvenirs. Truly the best of a guided tour and getting the flavor of the culture.

Great tour with an excellent guide (Patricia)

Amit_P, May 2023

Patricia was our guide and she was absolutely fantastic! She provided great detail on the rich history of Mexico City. The Xochimilco canal tour was great and so was the walking tour of Coyoacan. Patricia worked with our compact schedule and provided great recommendations! Would definitely take the tour again with Patricia the next time we come to Mexico City with our family!

Great experience

Keith_B, May 2023

Great experience. Our guide, Jaime, was excellent. The museum was fantastic. Great way to explore several areas of the city.

Non-tour “tour”

Robert_H, May 2023

Tour guide was distracted and not talkative at all. We had to prompt every question. We sat in a very silent car ride and he offered no information about the sites we were passing. Tour ran extremely late and we were not able to see all the sites because “the office” scheduled our entrance time for hours after the tour was supposed to end.

Great private tour!

Austin_P, Apr 2023

Great private tour! We had a great day going to all of the locations as described. Our favorite part of the tour was Xochimilco. It consisted of 2 hours of good food (included), stops along the canal, and a great atmosphere!

Memorable tour with a lot of greatness packed into a few hours!

Khushbu_S, Apr 2023

My husband and I had a wonderful experience on this tour. Our guide, Patricia, was absolutely fantastic. She was very knowledgeable and had great, interesting stories to share. The entire tour was well organized, on-time and thoughtfully executed. Patricia and her driver picked us up from our hotel. The car was clean, and the ride was smooth. Throughout the entire tour, we felt safe and well cared for. Our first stop was Xochimilco. It was great to go here first in the morning as the weather was beautiful and there were less crowds. The boat ride through the canal was tranquil and scenic. We made a few pit stops along the way to see some flowers, try Pulque (so good! a milder tequila made from agave) and explore some houses/get some nice photo ops. We then went to Coyoacan to walk around, visit the church and local markets/artists. This was very enjoyable and fun to experience the culture. Finally, we ended at the Frida Kahlo museum. While it was great to tour the house she lived in and see some of her work, I was a bit underwhelmed by this museum. This has nothing to do with the tour but just the museum itself. In fact, I enjoyed Patricia's mini-history lesson on Frida and Diego before we got to the museum. We learned a lot more from her! The nice thing is, you can spend as little or as much time as you want here - totally up to you. Overall, we are so happy we booked this tour and had a truly memorable experience!

Wonderful, fun adventure!!

Elaine_C, Apr 2023

Carlo was a fun, enthusiastic and informative tour guide. He was very considerate and patient with our group! It was very apparent that he enjoyed his job and wanted to share his delight with the cities we toured. We highly recommend him!!!

Absolutely not what was described!

Debra_W, Apr 2023

I want to start by saying that the people on the tour were very nice. But with that said the tour was nothing like the explanation. Instead of having a tour guide, we were picked up by a driver who didn’t speak a lot of English, even though we asked for the tour in English. We were taking on a long drive to Xochimilco and put on a boat, which was fun, except there was no explanation about how Xochimilco came to be or why it is such an important part of history. Again, our driver took us on a very long, very uncomfortably cramped NOT air-conditioned car to Coyoacan. We parked the car and took a very long walk to the center of town, where we met a tour guide, who walked us around the main Square and church but by then we were so hot and tired. We ended that quickly. Again, the driver picked us up and brought us to our final stop, which was Frida Kahlo’s Casa Azul. We had pre-paid for tickets, so we got in line and one of the docents let everyone know that there is a black out and they didn’t know when we were going to be able to get in. It could be 10 minutes it could be hours. So we left and drove on a very long, drive back to our hotel and then an air condition. Very cramped car. This was absolutely not the trip that was described. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Iban terribly sorry to read this, can I ask you please under what name you had your booking? The blackout had nothing to do with us and I am terribly embarrassed that it also affected our experience with you. About to A/C I’m so sorry for that, that’s why I am asking you the name because all our cars and drivers should have all we promise to our customers. Do not worry, this does not mean they will be affected, but it is something we have to fix.

Highly recommend Frida and Coyoacon visit!

Satyanarayana_H, Apr 2023

A wonderful tour more so due to the great tour guide that we had for the day - Carlos! As such Xochimilco was average, butbCayoacon and Frida Museo wer great places to visit and having an English speaking Carlos accompany us and speaking about the history of the place and showing us all the key sights was invaluable! Carlos also took us to Roma and showed us the house where the beloved award winning film of the same name was shot! At the end of day, there is a lot I learnt about the culture of the country through Carlos.

The Mercedes Experience

Tamala_F, Apr 2023

Mercedes gave us a top-notch experience. She was quite knowledgeable about Mexican history pre and post-Colonialism. She gave us a treat of an extra stop at the Cuicuilco Pyramid. She also shared several Mexican legends which because of my love of folklore and story-telling was super special to hear.

Fantastic Tour

Lucia_V, Apr 2023

Patricia is a knowledgable and very personable guide. Patricia made us feel welcome, like family, and safe under her guidance. She had a deep knowledge of the history of the places we visited. The trajenera tour with the delicious snacks was memorable. We also enjoyed the walk around Coyocan’ markets and the Frida Kahlo Museum . It was an in depth history and cultural experience!

Mercedes made it magical

Julia_B, Apr 2023

Our tour guide Mercedes was excellent. She was extremely knowledgeable about everything we saw and the history of Mexico. She gave us all the i formatee needed to really understand what we were seeing. She was also the most lovely person. She enriched every other person around her with joy and happiness. It was truly a wonderful day. Thank you Mercedes!

It was a party!

Jeff_F, Apr 2023

Mercedes knew how to make our time informative and fun. We got to try new foods, learn about history and culture, and even have a dance party with some traditional dances. Cannot recommend her enough!

A Day to Remember

Jennifer_B, Apr 2023

It’s was a wonderful day! Armando, our guide, was so kind and knowledgeable. He took very good care of us the entire day. I loved Xochimilco and the vibrant fun. The complimentary food on the boat was an added bonus because I love nopales! Visiting Frida’s house was amazing. Being in her home was touching. I can see why she loved Coyoacán so much, it’s such a beautiful place.

Highly recommend

David_A, Apr 2023

Easy way to experience these attractions. Our guide was friendly, dependable, and helpful. The Xochimilco boat ride was everything I’d hoped for!

Tour of Xochimilco and Frida Kahlo museum and Diego Rivera’s house in Coyoacan

Rajasree_S, Apr 2023

Gliding along the canals of Xochimilco and learning about Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo was a very interesting experience. However, the guiding could have been done more professionally.

Mercedes is fantastic!

Angela_R, Apr 2023

Mercedes, our guide, was knowledgeable with an exuberant personality! Sergio was a safe, conscientious driver. The tour of the canals offered beverages and delicious snacks. Mercedes coordinated each part of the tour leaving us to relax and enjoy!

Terrific cultural experience

Marsha_T, Apr 2023

Jaime brought the history to life. We enjoyed learning about and experiencing the culture and people of Xochimilco.
