What makes this tour special

Explore some of the most picturesque corners and famed sights of Mexico City: the bohemian neighbourhood of Coyoacán, the former home of Frida Kahlo bursting with old-world charm, the Xochimilco canals, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987, and the Frida Kahlo Museum.

On your full-day group tour, you will:


You will meet your group in Mexico City and travel to the Xochimilco area. You will explore its famous river channels and chinampas (floating gardens), which were used by ancient civilizations as a system of agriculture and commerce since pre-Hispanic times. You'll learn about the history of this UNESCO World Heritage Site, first established as a pre-Columbian city on the shores of Lake Xochimilco just south of Mexico City. 

Then, embark on a colorful trajinera boat ride and glide through the canals, taking in picturesque views of lush greenery, floating gardens (chinampas), and quaint bridges. These brightly decorated trajineras capture the essence and soul of Xochimilco, embodying a cherished Mexican tradition.

Continue to the emblematic Coyoacán, known as the cultural heart of Mexico City, walk along the old streets and corners and explore its markets, architecture, traditions, flavours and culture. Coyoacan is one of the most popular places in Mexico City with stunning colonial architecture, vibrant colours and intricate designs that make you feel as if you've stepped back in time. You'll find everything from brightly painted houses to quirky churches (like the Santuario de Santa Maria) and even an old convent where nuns still live today.

In the same neighbourhood, you'll visit the Frida Kahlo Museum, known as "The Blue House", one of Mexico City's most beloved and significant cultural landmarks. Discover the place where this world-renowned Latin American artist lived and died, filled with personal objects from Frida’s life and artworks inspired by her life experiences that will give you a better understanding of this great Mexican artist. The house also served as a residence for Kahlo's husband, the famous muralist Diego Rivera. Their tumultuous yet deeply passionate relationship is a significant part of the museum's narrative.

At the end of your tour, you'll have learned so much about Mexican culture and history—and chances are, you'll have made some new friends along the way!
