Description

Discover the most ancient, daring, and delicious side of Mexico City by sailing through the canals of Xochimilco. This is much more than a mezcal tasting: it is a cultural celebration on the water, accompanied by unique flavors, good music, and an unparalleled atmosphere. For two hours, you'll tour Xochimilco aboard a traditional trajinera on a guided tour led by a local expert, who will share with you the history, process, and magic behind mezcal. You'll taste different types of artisanal mezcal, including young, reposado, and some flavored versions, all carefully selected to surprise your palate and show you the diversity of this ancient drink. But that's not all. In this experience, you'll also dare to taste a very Mexican snack... with legs, wings, or strange shapes. From the most famous insect to some 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 have them in front of you... but we promise it will be worth it! Your local guide will keep the atmosphere lively and authentic, offering drinks throughout the tour: unlimited mezcal, as well as beer, water, and sodas, in case you need a break between drinks. The experience is designed to connect with other travelers, learn, laugh, and toast like Mexicans do: with a happy heart and a full glass. In addition, throughout the tour, you'll discover traditional activities and surprise games that will make you laugh, learn some Mexican slang, and become part of the local folklore in a unique and fun way. We'll stop at a small chinampa where you can take photos, use the restroom, and, if you wish, purchase additional food or drinks. This break is also perfect for enjoying the scenery and taking in the natural and peaceful surroundings that only Xochimilco can offer. At the end of the tour, you'll take home a special souvenir: your own shot glass and some other surprise gifts, as a symbol of an experience you'll never forget.
