What To Expect
Declared a UNESCO heritage site in 1987, the Xochimilco canals are an emblematic place in Mexico City and have played a very important role since ancient times.
Today a big part of the nature of Xochimilco prevails, combined by cultural elements of its pre-Hispanic origins, art and colonial culture.
During this activity we'll explore the colorful canals by kayak and get to know about the history and traditions of this beautiful place.
We’ll also make a stop in a “chinampa” (artificial island) to have a delicious lunch prepared with local ingredients grown freshly at the location!
