Real experiences from real travelers
The contrast between the peaceful Casa Azul and the lively canals of Xochimilco was perfect. Our guide was a fountain of knowledge about Frida's life.
Booking through this platform was seamless. The trajinera ride was the highlight of my Mexico City trip. Don't skip the optional lunch!
Coyoacan is the most beautiful neighborhood. The museum is small so the timed entry is essential. Xochimilco was very fun and colorful.
We chose the premium small group option and it was worth every penny. We had plenty of time to ask questions and didn't feel rushed at all.
An absolute must for any art lover. Seeing the UNAM murals and then Frida’s house gave so much context to Mexican identity.
Very well organized. The transport was comfortable and the guide spoke excellent French. Xochimilco is a bit loud but very authentic.
Everything ran like clockwork. From the hotel pickup to the museum entry, we didn't have to worry about a thing.
The atmosphere on the water in Xochimilco is something you won't find anywhere else in the world. Highly recommend the private tour for families.
