    Complaints about purchases

    I booked my tour three weeks in advance everything was confirmed and a day before my Frida Khalo tour was canceled. Very disappointed! Just because no one in my group had a ticket to Frida khalo. They should have assigned me with a different group. Also I purchased the package 3 hour tour in Xochimilco and two hour in Coyoacan and we just spent 1 hour in Xochimilco. Tour guide said complain to TripAdvisor not ME! Very disappointed!!

    Book elsewhere

    Very poorly organized. We booked weeks in advance, didn't get us Tix for La Casa Azul, changed pick up times, left us hanging for 2.5 hours, wanted to skip Coyoacán tour altogether and go straight to Xochimilco so I had to insist we see Coyoacán (wth?) and we spent 1/2 hour before getting back on van to Xochimilco. I would book elsewhere. Very disappointing.

    Fun time for groups of friends!

    We took a morning tour of Xochimilco, which was absolutely lovely. Arlet was a sweet guide, she did a great job answering all of our questions and working with me on things like pickup time and location. I really appreciated her knowledge and flexibility. Our tour lasted from about 8:30am to 3:30pm, for a total of 7 hours. We did spend a bit of time in traffic, but it was definitely worth it. Crowds were small when we were at Xochimilco, when we got there only a few of the trajineros were out. By the time we left it was busier though. I would say if you're looking for a party atmosphere, you probably want to do a later afternoon tour but if you're interested in the history and the experience then morning is better.

    Christy_D · January 2026

    Poor communication and not as advertised.

    The driver never showed up on time, and there was no way to communicate with the company as they didn't respond to texts until too late. After waiting over 30 minutes past the scheduled pick-up, we finally got a call that we were being picked up at 10a instead of 830a. Also, we were supposed to go to the Blue House Frida Kahlo museum but were told they couldn't get tickets and took us to the Red House Case Kahlo other museum. We were very disappointed in the lack of communication, misleading plan for tickets to the popular Frida Kahlo museum with an inadequate substitution last minute and driver showing up 90 minutes late. We wouldn't recommend the tour for these reasons. Once we had a private driver/guide, he was friendly, informative and helpful, but the company overall provided a bad service.

    Read this before decide your booking

    Pickup was late with no communication, leaving us waiting without any information about timing or next steps. Tour logistics lacked clarity, and we were often unsure where to go or what to expect. Additionally, we were charged 400 MXN for food that appeared to be worth closer to 100 MXN; we do not drink alcohol, which reduced the value further. At the end of the tour, the guide was rude and insisted we get off at a different location than the pickup point, instructing us to speak with a salesman without any prior explanation. This resulted in additional Uber travel.

    Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.

    How much does Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo cost?

    +

    Prices start at $1,050 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mexico City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mexico City is not rushed.

    Is Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 28 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo?

    +

    Around 10 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mexico City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mexico City and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mexico City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Mexico City?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Mexico City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Teotihuacan 3 Pyramids Tour + Hotel Pick Up + Lunch at La Gruta, Historic Center Essentials: Mexico City Downtown Walking Tour, PREMIUM Frida Kahlo Museum and Xochimilco (Small Groups). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Mexico City?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Mexico City?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo?

    +

    Included: Admission to Kahlo Frida Museum (if this option is chosen); Canals in Xochimilco by trajinara; Coyoacan Market; and Kahlo Frida Museum (if option chosen). Not included: Live music on trajinera (available at extra cost); and Food and Beverage (Personal Shopping). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo?

    +

    9 : 00am we will arrive for you in front of the main entrance, we will share your driver's details a day earlier via Wha. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Tour to Xochimilco and Coyoacan and Frida Khalo if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
