Coyoacan & Xochimilco Day Trip
Travel south of Mexico City to Xochimilco, an area known for its canals, gardens, and traditional chinampas, which are plots of land built for farming. You can enjoy a ride on a trajinera, a colorful wooden boat similar to a gondola, and take in the scenery along the waterways that have been part of daily life here for centuries. This setting offers a look at both the natural landscape and the traditions that continue to shape the community. Afterwards, continue to Coyoacan, a neighborhood with a distinct character. Stroll through streets lined with trees and admire houses dating back to the sixteenth century. Coyoacan has played an important role during both the Aztec and Spanish periods, and today it remains one of the most interesting districts of the city for its blend of history and local culture. The tour concludes with a visit to the Frida Kahlo Museum, also known as La Casa Azul. This was both the birthplace of the artist and the home where she spent her final years. Inside, you find personal items, indigenous jewelry, and pieces of Mexican folk art that reflect her life and influence, offering a closer connection to her world.
