About this experience
For all the bad, mezcal... and for all the good, too! Tour Xochimilco to the rhythm of music, taste unique mezcals, and celebrate Mexican culture like a local.
Discover the most cheerful and authentic side of Mexico City by sailing through the canals of Xochimilco. This isn't just a tasting: it's a cultural experience on the water, with great music, unique flavors, and a relaxed vibe that celebrates the best of Mexico. For two hours, you'll tour Xochimilco aboard a traditional trajinera with local hosts who'll make every moment special. You'll enjoy a guided tasting of artisanal mezcals, including young, rested varieties and some with unique flavors, carefully chosen to surprise your palate and show you the diversity of this Mexican drink. At the heart of this tasting, you'll find a few accompaniments that enhance every sip of mezcal — flavors that balance, contrast, or awaken new sensations on the palate. Some are traditional, others completely unexpected... but all designed to make each drink a different and memorable experience. Between each tasting, the experience flows with light and fun activities that will invite you to mingle with other travelers, share laughter, and enjoy the good vibes that characterize Xochimilco. More than just a tasting, it's a cultural celebration that combines flavor, music, and human connection in a natural and colorful environment. Your guide will keep the atmosphere lively and welcoming, offering different artisanal mezcals and non-alcoholic drinks to balance the flavors. Every detail is designed for you to live a unique moment: cultural, cheerful, and with that warm touch that only a local experience can offer. We'll make a brief stop at a small chinampa where you can take photos, use the bathroom, and, if you wish, buy additional food or drinks. It's the perfect time to enjoy the scenery and soak up the tranquility of the surroundings before continuing to celebrate. And since we don't want you to forget us (even if the mezcal does its magic), at the end, you'll take home a very special souvenir: your own handmade artisanal shot, ready to travel with you in your suitcase and always remind you of the best experience of your life. Come and enjoy an unusual tasting: unique flavors, good vibes, and the joy that only Xochimilco can offer.
