This 2.5-hour tour takes place on a trajinera boat traveling through the canals of Xochimilco in Mexico City. The ride includes a stop near a replica of the Island of the Dolls, where the guide explains the story behind the island and its collection of dolls. Two female hosts lead the tour, sharing cultural information and adapting the experience for different ages and interests. Throughout the trip, guests enjoy a lively Mexican party atmosphere with music and unlimited drinks including beer, tequila, mezcal, and carbonated beverages. Snacks and fresh sliced fruit such as limes and oranges are provided. Participants take part in a guacamole-making contest, competing to create the best flavor using the supplied ingredients. The tour includes bathroom stops, bottled water, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, a first aid kit, utensils, a cooler, and a speaker. There is an option to hire a mariachi band or visit an axolotl sanctuary for an additional fee. Boarding the trajinera requires stepping up onto the boat, so wearing comfortable, non-slip shoes is recommended. There are no ATMs at the site, so bringing cash is advised for optional extras like mariachi bands or souvenirs.
