AWESOME experience, don’t miss out 🍻🦂🌞🎤🫶🏼 - I loved this trip so much! A load of people didn’t get to the boat on time, so there were only three of us. But Uli and Mati are a dream and show you the most fun time! Classically it was glorious sunshine all morning, then rained when we got onto the river, but it actually added to the fun (so don’t let the weather put you off). The games are super fun, and the cultural information was really interesting….and the drinks FLOWED. I’d do it all over again, for sure. SCORPIO!

Fun for all - Leslea and Axyl were great hosts. We had a lot of fun on this excursion. I recommend this trip but if you’re staying in Mexico City I would plan a two hour drive to get there.

Definitely don't miss this if you are in Mexico City - A worthy ride with unlimited drinks and fun, both the tour guides were friendly and informative. Kept us busy with the games and learned the Scorpion way of drinking. Luckily we had a great group of people who made it even more fun a lovable experience that will be cherished for a lifetime. Will definitely do this again with friends

The best way to spend a Saturday afternoon - The staff of the Gina Paola (Gary, Fatima, David) were an absolute pleasure! They made the ride so fun and shared great history about Xochimilco with us. Our boat group loved them and we all had a blast. I cannot recommend this activity enough. 100/100!

A Tour to Remember - This was an amazing boat tour! Des and Ireland did a phenomenal job as our guides! They made it very fun and lively. I will warn you, there will be a lot of drinking involved lol.

Fun boat ride with food and drinks - It was a colorful boat ride. They provided light lunch, sweet treats, water and lots of tequila, beer, michelada and paloma. The guides kept it fun for everyone with a game of bingo, karaoke and fun facts about Xochimilco. Bring a jacket in case it rains, we were happy we did when it poured down.

This is a party cruise -- very little of canals will be seen - Very disappointed in this boat tour. What was delivered was not what was advertised. The point of the whole tour (which started at 10 am) was to get people drunk, play loud music, and scream "shots shots!" as much as possible. We were looking for a tour of the canals, maybe a bit of history or culture. Instead it was a booze cruise, with an hour stop on an island, so we weren't even in the canals very long. If the advertisement for this tour had been honest about what to expect, we would have booked something else. It was a waste of time and money.
