Floating Garden, etc tour - Our driver was fantastic. He had a great depth of perspective and provided a significant amount of detailed information. We had an awesome day and learned so much about the local history. The floating gardens were amazing. The university, neighborhoods, and museum portion of the tour was very educational. Found some authentic gifts in the market and lunch was delicious. Great day.

Floating solo, but never felt more alive! - In November 2024, I took the Private Xochimilco Floating Gardens Tour with ForeverVacation — and wow, what a ride! Bright boats, great food, fun guide, and zero stress. Even solo, it felt like a party made just for me. Highly recommend if you want color, culture, and tacos on water!

Floating Through Xochimilco Vibes - Went on the Xochimilco Floating Gardens tour with my family in August 2024, and it was such a vibe. The boats were bright and fun, the atmosphere was lively, and we got to just kick back, eat, and enjoy the ride. Our guide made everything easy and chill. Honestly, it was the kind of experience you don’t forget loved every minute.

A Fantastic Xochimilco Adventure - My friend and I had an unforgettable experience on the private Xochimilco Floating Gardens tour with Forever Vacation in January 2025. The vibrant atmosphere, colorful boats, lively music, and beautiful canals made for a truly special day. The tour was well organized and hassle free, with smooth transportation and a knowledgeable guide who shared great insights. We loved drifting through the waterways, enjoying delicious local food, and immersing ourselves in the lively culture. This is a must do experience!

Nice! - Good to go early and enjoy some quietness and calmness on the water before it gets busy and loud with music and other boats.

Great way to see the canals and Coyoacan - This was a wonderful tour overall, and having a private tour guide like Lando was worth the price. Lando was helpful, solicitous, and knowledgeable. He was happy to take videos and photos of us so we could enjoy the tour, and knew a lot about the things we asked and saw. He was a good driver, his car was clean, and we enjoyed talking to him. The tour itself was also great overall. Having Lando help us find the right boat for the canals was the ideal alternative to the party experience others might have on the boats. We wanted a quiet, lovely boat ride through the canals and that's what we got! The tour around Coyoacan was also great--it's an interesting town within greater CDMX and is well worth a visit. We had to book our tickets to the Frida Kahlo Museum separately, since that's not included, but Lando dropped us off right on time. The only things we didn't absolutely love: the visit to the University/Stadium was interesting, but not really necessary for us. And we maybe could have gone to a different restaurant for lunch in Coyocan. It was very affordable and maybe very classic, but the food wasn't that great for us. Still, we strongly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a lovely day in these areas with a knowledgable and helpful guide!
