- At what time should we arrive? We are open at 7:15Pm from September to March and at 7:45Pm from April to August. My humble suggestion is to book your visit with anticipation at the official site and save the date.
- What can I do with the kids? This Mexican party is for everybody. All the family is invited no matter your age. Indeed the little ones can even have a kids menu. Just be aware that the tour in trajinera has a duration of 3 hours.
As soon as you arrive we will be waiting for you at a Mexican kermesse. At this point, we give you the information about the trajinera you will be partying and where to board.
- Before all the dancing begins, take your time to enjoy the fair games and the Mexican snacks. You will also find fresh flavored water, and why not? margaritas with tequila to warm up.
- Visit our restrooms to get some bug repellent, remember that we are in the middle of the jungle. Also, empty your tanks before boarding your trajinera.
- A bell announces the boarding time. Pay attention to hear the name of your trajinera walk to the barges dock.
Wait! What should I wear for this fiesta? Dress code for Xoximilco Cancun. - Trajineras or party barges have a capacity for 20 persons. And here your host and your captain are ready for an introduction and to sail away. Did I mention that they are experts at partying?
- You will find an open bar at your trajinera. It includes water, sodas, beer, tequila, ron, vodka, and sangrita. To start with the right foot ask your host to prepare special shots and drinks.
