Description

Check out the oldest, boldest, and tastiest side of Mexico City by cruising the Xochimilco canals. This is way more than just a mezcal tasting: it's a cultural party on the water, with unique flavors, great music, and an amazing vibe. For two hours, you'll cruise through Xochimilco on a traditional trajinera, guided by a local expert who'll share the history, process, and magic behind mezcal with you. You'll get to try different types of artisanal mezcal, including young, aged, and some flavored versions, all carefully picked to surprise your taste buds and show you the diversity of this ancient drink. But that's not all. In this experience, you'll also get to try a super Mexican snack... with legs, wings, or a weird shape. From the most famous insect to one you probably never imagined trying, you'll be part of a surprising, tasty, and 100% authentic tasting. We won't tell you what they are until you're right in front of them... but we promise it'll be worth it! Your local guide will keep things lively and authentic, offering you drinks all along the way: unlimited mezcal, plus beer, water, and sodas, in case you need a break between drinks. This experience is all about connecting with other travelers, learning, laughing, and toasting like the Mexicans do: with a cheerful heart and a glass that's always full. Plus, along the way, you'll discover traditional activities and surprise games that'll make you laugh, learn some Mexican slang, and dive into local folklore in a fun and unique way. We'll stop at a small chinampa where you can snap some photos, use the bathroom, and grab some extra food or drinks if you want. This break is also perfect for enjoying the scenery and soaking up the natural and peaceful environment that only Xochimilco can offer. At the end of the tour, you'll get a special souvenir: your own shot glass and some other surprise gifts, as a symbol of an experience you'll never forget.
