      Yes, we regraded not spending more time here because just 2 hours aren't enough 😔, but maybe next time. Yes, the dolls are quite creepy and that was only the replica because the longer tour includes visiting "doll island" where the real story took place 😳😱.

    Hey guys this looks awesome!! Such a fun experience we will do when we go to CDMX! The boats are so colorful, the energy is great! We hope to find a fun family like you guys did to share the boat. Also… won’t be drinking any Michelada’s! 🤣 glad Geovanny survived!

    • @ForTheRoadTravels
      @ForTheRoadTravels  2 года назад +1

      Awww, thank you so much guys 🤗. We think it's a *MUST* to do in CDMX!! So vibrant like what Mexico is. Yes, go early and roam around, preferably Sundays you might find either a local family or some tourists. Lucky Katy speaks Spanish, so chances are higher you find a local family, would be even better 🤭🤭. I will not discourage you, maybe was the only bad one, or probably ask it without Chamoy (as per some local friends) the Chamoy was what made me sick 🤮🤢.

      Hola Zach
      Thank you so much, we are glad that this video was very helpful for you 🙏. Definitely, Nuevo Nativitas, avoid at all cost Belem dock. If you go with a large group the price can be really affordable otherwise you can do what we did by finding other people and pitch the idea, so it's a win-win for all who are getting in the boat. 🤩
      We hope this info helps you as well, and once again thank you for watching and commenting, really help us out!! 🙏🤗

      For *peace* of mind would be fantastic to book anything in advance, but as you can see we did it on our own.
      If you were booking something in advance, check a reputable company by the reviews on either TripAdvisor or Google Maps, however, we use Get Your Guide for other tours and has been great for us www.getyourguide.com/mexico-city-l194/xochimilco-frida-kahlo-and-coyoacan-tour-t28922/?partner_id=42TXFE7¤cy=USD&travel_agent=1&cmp=share_to_earn

      @ForTheRoadTravels  2 года назад +2

      Hola amig@,
      As per a local friend, who told us after explaining what happened to me, he said that some of the vendors keep the chamoy (which is sweet chilly liquid on the rim of the cup) expose to the sun without any method of keeping it fresh and that might have caused me that severe stomachache. Try them they are really good, I might have been unlucky that day 😜

      Great question, there are actually bathroom stops on request to the "chinampero" (Boat rider). Which you have to pay $5 pesos fee.

    We took a bus there, it was the cheapest option and took a little over an hour to get there. The boat let us ride for 300 pesos. Y’all gotta bargain

    • @ForTheRoadTravels
      @ForTheRoadTravels  Год назад

      *Awesome*, did you guys take the "camion" or "metro". We've taken Uber and metro once to get to Xoximilco. Yeah, it's all about barging with them but you need to know the official prices because if they see that you're a visitor they might try to take advantage. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙌 🤩

      Solo asegurate que el "chamoy" que le pongan se encuentre en un lugar fresco y no con la luz del sol directamente 🤭.

    Ill do the same thing to save money bro i have a backpack that keeps my drinks cold. Those people over charge for everything. So it 500 pesos 1 hour so if i find a couple its cheaper we just going share the boat together. So $250 pesos sounds like a deal going go with my wife next week if god wants to. Ill be ok for one hour i know they going say get 2 hours you not going see every thing, i be like its cool my money not yours my friend lol.

    • @ForTheRoadTravels
      @ForTheRoadTravels  2 года назад

      Hola Rosarito ☺️☺️ oh ya, unfortunately Xochimilco has become so overrun with tourism that prices of micheladas etc have gone crazy. Brining your own food and drink and sharing the boat with someone is definitely the best way to do the tour on a budget 🤩🙏🏼🙌🏼 we hope you have a great time 🥳🥳
