Glide along the ancient canals of Xochimilco, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where color, music, and history flow together. Aboard your private trajinera, sail through the floating gardens — once the lifeblood of Aztec chinampas that fed Tenochtitlan. Hear the echoes of mariachis, see the bright boats drifting by, and savor the rhythm of everyday Mexican joy as vendors paddle alongside offering elotes, tacos, and cold drinks.

Then continue to Coyoacán, one of Mexico City’s most beloved neighborhoods. Walk its cobblestone streets, explore colorful plazas, and taste traditional dishes at the local market — a perfect blend of art, flavor, and authenticity. With its colonial charm and creative spirit, Coyoacán reveals the heart of Mexico’s bohemian soul.

To complete the day, visit the campus of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), home to striking murals that tell the story of Mexico’s struggles and triumphs — including Juan O’Gorman’s iconic mosaic at the Central Library and Diego Rivera’s monumental relief at the Olympic Stadium.
