      Amazing kayak trip with...

      Reyna_F, Jun 2026
      Amazing kayak trip with Saul. We learned a lot about the environment, culture and history. It was an experience we will never forget. Saul is a wonderful guide and very knowledgeable. This was a highlight of our trip to Mexico City.

      Very educational and peaceful

      We did the 11am tour and it was really nice. With sun protection it was great. Being in the kayak allowed us to see all ranges of the canal. From residential sides to the busy wide areas. Our guide was very informative on the history as well as the current use case and it was very interesting. Great way to appreciate the unesco site and I’m so thankful for learning more about the history of Mexico.

      Wonderful kayak tour in a unique environment

      We had an amazing time with Saul as our guide. He is a very kind and thoughtful man and his knowledge about the area, history and traditions was really interesting, as well as his desire to protect this UNESCO World Heritage environment. The kayaks were great and life jackets were provided. We enjoyed our few hours of peaceful kayaking in a unique environment after the busy city.
