A totally unreal experience when visiting Mexico. In this video, I explore the canals of Xochimilco with my amigo Horacio.
To hire a trajinera (boat / gondola) costs $500 pesos per hour (although this can be negotiated outside of weekends depending on how busy the canals are).

Es mi placer...🍻
Love the video Finn! You are getting more and more talented with each video! Loved the history behind the Canals!
Thanks Gord!!!!!! Still a loooonnnnngggg way to go but I will enjoy making small videos along the way regardless. Much better than posting photos on Instagram.
What a nice day! I could see that you had a very great time there. Those boats are awesome! Keep exploring Finnn haha
Living the life Finn, I love everything about this video, its looks like so much fun there, Mexico looks amazing man. You definitely held your own stirring the boat, it looked tough, but you were well able...🤗 cant wait for more my friend....ps. the voice over sounded top and listening to you speaking Spanish is inspiring.....bien hecho
Too kind! Thanks so much guys, it really was one of those experiences that will be a lifelong memory. I hope you and Sam can go when you arrive, if not this time then one day 🤞! (Haha, I was in and out from that sheet all day long trying to get the VO right 😅🤣). Thanks again amigos! ❤️
@@FinnDelMundoTravel cant wait man, you are really making us so excited for Mexico. we cant wait to see more of your travels, we are genuinly waiting for your uploads its great...
That house behind you at second 0:25 is the house from the Oscar winning Roma movie 😱😍
Si 🤩!! I was there with Horacio before we went south to the trajineras 😁!! I love that movie! Great spotting!!
Wow - Xorhimilco is amazing! Beats cruising the aisles at PAK'nSAVE for interesting items lol. Love the weird dolls and passing band music floating by, so very cool. Your new video definitely has a winning formula of entertainment. Keep up the great work. 😉
Thanks Chris!!! I was about to private message you and say new video is out but you raced ahead and watched already. Sure does beat the PNS life, I miss you and the others. Glad you enjoyed watching this one, excuse the profanity in there; cover Elija’s ears if he watched it. Next video is a walking only from Mexico City (if it ever uploads 😅)! Stay warm back home.
What´s up FINN! Premiere all the way hermanito. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🕉🕉🕉🕉🕉🕉🕉🕉🧡🤍💚
Finn Del Mundo Love the video 😁Lol beautiful place to go visit. Interesting spooky dolls everywhere 👀👻 Did you got hire🤣 🤣😂 good job on helping 👍🙏🏼❤️
Hola Karina! Jaja I wasn’t much help but it sure was fun trying!
Great video! Looked like so much fun! Esquites and mariachis, floating down the canal, ahhhhhh bliss!
Thanks Maria! 😃 It was a pinch me and I dreaming moment that’s for sure. The day was fantastico 👌 Next time I’d like to exit the boat and walk around doll island.
The coca cola part is funny 😂. Great video! May be go try the mariachi job instead 😝
Yes!! I was like: what! Why? Haha 🤣! I love full sugar drinks that day I wanted a sugar free option. Haha Mariachi would be just as difficult Ada 🤣
FINN The boat ride along that canal looks a little like the canals in Venice, Italy or at least in my mind. You had quite the fun🥳🥳🥳.
Gracias por ver Eddie!! Always more fun setting it as a premiere (this accidentally uploaded without me setting the time or date 😅)! You must check out Xochimilco hermano, es fantastico!😃👍
Love this video, definitely one of my favorite places in CDMX, glad you enjoyed it there ☺️looking forward to more great videos
Gracias Gordon!! I finally went because of your recommendation so it’s YOU I need to thank. Next stop Zacatecas… Gracias por ver amigo!
Looks like a great day out. I'm glad you didn't fall in steering the boat in your socks! haha X
Hey Jen!! The socks, believe it or not, were a better option than the dress shoes I was wearing 🙈😁! I did genuinely almost fall in though which probably would have resulted in meningitis from the water 😅!!
Wow how cool are those boats! Awesome video finn, keep em coming 👍😎
Awesome ae! I could spend the whole day out on the water quite easily. Next time!!
Se me sale agua la boca mirando esa tortilla! Me encanta este video y ver de primera mano los canales de Xochimilco...fascinante. Sabes como se llama el lago? Yo lo se...a ver si tu lo sabes!!
Hola MBT! El nombre del lago es Xochimilco no? Y el lago grande de Mexico era Texcoco no? Mucho historia 😍!! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Toño y Tu would love it here.
Those gondolas look like they are a part of a water parade. Oh wow, those dolls are creepy! Don't really like mayonnaise but still would try that. Love the mariachi boat! Finn, you have to hit the gym! 😂 Nice meal to close out the day.
Hey WITY TRAVELS! funny you mention about the gym, the very next day after Xochimilco I began at home workouts 🤣😅 💪!! Next time I go I want to focus more on the mariachi boats, enter doll island and talk more about the agriculture (there’s only so much I could cram into this video)😀! Thanks for watching!
@@FinnDelMundoTravel looking forward to part 2!!
@@WITYTRAVELS in another 6 months or so I will return🎉😃!! I just watched your most recent video from Greece 👌
Welcome to all mexico.🇲🇽🇲🇽🥳🥳🥳🥳
Gracias JP 🤩!!
Love the video!! This is one place I would love to go to. :) disfruta Mexico!
Jess! You must!! Limit 12 per boat so bring some friends and we’ll have a fiesta 🥳😃!!
@@FinnDelMundoTravel yes!!!
Amazing mi amigo!!!! What an epic day
I didn’t want the day to end! Gracias for watching 😃
Bloody hell I still can't believe I've never been to this place! I swear you were wasted at some points HOWLING
I never went in previous visits to Mexico because to me it appeared to be this tacky tourist trap… however it was much more than that. a bucket list location👌.
PS after that first beer (and basically the entire video) I was beyond merry! Nice spotting 🤣.
Beautiful. An amazing experience 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching! 😃
Xochimolco is so much fun! Especially if you go in a larger group. Btw, I also LOVE ❤️ esquites too!! I loved your face (reaction) after you tasted them. It was like you discovered gold! Lol
Hey Becca!! Yes I want to return with a large group, that’s the plan later this year so watch this space for a follow up video 😃!! Oh I definitely found gold inside that esquite cup!! I’m not surprised you enjoy them also 😜 haha
Damn now I am craving an esquite 😅
Finn, this was awesome. We are really looking forward to your latest videos. Hopefully your Spanish videos can help us with our learning. The video quality is so good, and really enjoyed the information part of the video. Cheers from Renee and Carl, Christchurch NZ, waiting to get back to our van in Mexico (and hopefully meet you one day)
Hola Renee y Carl! I never made it down in my own van to meet you guys so I’m looking forward to you both making it back here so we can finally catch up. Where in Mexico is your van? Thanks a lot for the message, means a lot! There will be a spanish only video later this week ;)
@@FinnDelMundoTravel our van is near Oaxaca City! Not sure when we will get back there, its hard to plan anything in these times. We dream of Mexico every day so glad to have your videos to add to our fix now haha. Good luck with the learning to surf!
scary of the doll haha
I've kept Xochimilco for a future visit as my feet keep steering me to the Museo Nacional de Antropología, Templo Mayor, Bosque de Chapultapec, and of course Teotihuacan! Definitely on my list for the next visit though!
Brett! Those are all the sites I went to first in previous travels and then a friend of mine more or less ordered me to get myself down to Xochimilco. It was beyond my expectations and some 👌!! (PS Teotihuacan is my favourite place on Earth). PPS I hope you aren’t melting in the Mazatlan heat😉
@@FinnDelMundoTravel I'll get to Xochimilco ... I have to save some things for future visits! Lol. Mazatlán is actually pretty cool. Hurricane Enrique rolled past and we got doused with some rain. But it'll warm back up soon!
There's a really nice hotel right outside the site at Teotihuacan called Villas Teotihuacan Hotel & Spa (the name has changed over the years, but this is it now) www.villasteo.com/ . A little pricy, but they have hot water for showers and are super convenient to getting in to see the pyramids. Their food, other than the nachos, is pretty good too. I usually stay a few nights each time I visit Teotihuacan. Once I stayed in one of the budget places on the perimeter ... thus the reason I mention this hotel has hot water for showers! Lol. I didn't see a video from you on Teotihuacan ... did I miss it? EDIT: One more thing. They used to do a light show on the pyramid of the sun at night. Don't know if you've seen it. If not, LOOK FOR IT if they do it again, and go! It's amazing! You can search youtube for Experiencia Nocturna Teotihuacan - there are some fuzzy videos :) And if you haven't done the hot air balloon over the pyramids, I recommend it. Once is enough, but it's fun!
Nice introduction on Xochimilco. And you seem to enjoy it very much😎✌getting better and better plus more comfortable in front of the camera!🙌❤
José Gracias amigo! It was a day full of memories that will last a lifetime! 👌😀 I didn’t want to leave haha.
@@FinnDelMundoTravel Haha.. you only need to work on your trajinera moves and skills to work on one🙌😂
@@josepadilla7052 is that what they said!? I couldn’t really understand them in the moment 🤣
@@FinnDelMundoTravel Haha.. that's what I said😎🤣✌
@@josepadilla7052 jajajaja 😅 es la verdad!
All boats are usually female with the exception of the Bismarck a German battleship of WW2 deemed so magnificent that it was a he or a male!!! Not very inclusive 🌈 The ride looked great and so did the food. Thanks to your friend for sharing this time with us. 👍
Give it another 10 years and I predict a whole fleet of blokey boats (trajineras) out there with male names 🤣! Interesting info about the German ship from WW2!
Usually here the mariachi bands are 100% always male, yet I saw a female lead vocalist out there on the water leading the mariachis last weekend - it was refreshing to see it. Actually it was better than a traditional all male mariachi band, I wish I had filmed it.
Thanks for watching BBB 😃😃😃
Good video. Would be happier if you were wearing a mask.
Why?
Thanks for watching!! We were drinking and eating the whole time so there wasn’t ever a moment we needed the face covers 😃, or when we did it wasn’t while the camera was rolling :)
Que Pasa?!? The silent walking video disappeared!! I am so disappointed!!!!! I wasn't finished watching it,
HIVOLCO!! Hola! I am re-editing a copyright strike from TH-cam and adding an extra intro 😀. Apologies. It’s re-uploading as we speak ❤️
Vegan Kiwi eating meat in Mexico? I thought you said in another video you didn't like to contribute to animal suffering? So disappointing...
Google Translate: ¿Kiwi vegano comiendo carne en México? ¿Pensé que dijiste en otro video que no te gustaba contribuir al sufrimiento de los animales? Muy decepcionante...
Hey thanks for pointing that out, and it’s 100% true I don’t like to eat meat for more reasons than contributing to animal suffering. The video I did in Guanajuato was from June last year and since then I have had some cases where it just hasn’t been possible to stick to this, especially in Mexico where the country has a very traditional mindset. In my first week arriving this year in June I had lost 5kgs trying to stay vegetarian (I have never been vegan) and at that point I realised I couldn’t be this strict or my own health will suffer. With that said I still go out of my way to eat vegetarian for the wellness of animals and the planet. Thanks for watching :)
