Overview
Forget the party boats full of tourists and alcohol. Discover the real Xochimilco, sailing by boat through an incredible ecosystem of pre-Hispanic canals and islands, a journey back in time to see what Mexico City looked like in indigenous times. We will do bird watching and visit an island to learn about a sustainable and ancestral planting technique. You will meet one of the rarest species in the world, endemic to Xochimilco: the axolotl.
This experience is an immersion into the intimacy and heart of one of the most authentic and magical places in Mexico City. For nature-loving travellers and curious minds who want to discover and learn about the history and ecology of this World Heritage Site instead of partying.
