- The ultimate travel guide to MEXICO CITY! In Part 2 of this series we show you around the massive Chapultepec Park, take a boat ride down the canals of Xochimilco and visit the bohemian district of Coyoacan!
We visit the iconic Chapultepec Castle for some amazing views of the city, find the oddest Metro station in Mexico City, the coolest library and see a creature you can only find in the canals at Xochimilco!
Mexico City is a huge, huge place and to explore it all in one video seemed like too much so we have broken it down into a couple of videos to really give you the best and most in depth guide we can to this amazing city!

To get a cheaper boat to the Isla de las Muñecas it's better to rent the trajinera at Nuevo Nativitas (port) which is closer to the island. I see you rented the boat at Parque Ecológico Port which is kinda far from it. Also, at Nuevo Nativitas is where all the floating parties are... lots of music, food, and alcohol.
Awesome thanks for the advice Raoul! 😊🙏 we saw various different locations on Google Maps where you could rent boats from but didn't realise they would have differing prices! A really good tip thanks 👍
Of all the big cities I’ve seen, CDMX has been my fav.
Would have to agree with you! Amazing city! It really surprised us and became one of our absolute favs 😍
@@KittiandJon CDMX IS A WORLDCLASS CITY IMO. SO MUCH TO SEE AND DO AND EAT OMG 😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽❤
@@KontrolledKaoz One of the best cities in the world for sure!! :D
wow, well that’s another city on my travel list now! I didn‘t expect so many parks and I love the coffee library 😮
Haha it surpassed our expectations by a mile! One of our favourite cities in the world 😍 so much to do!!
What a great footage!! The cinematography is outstanding!! Thanks
Thank you! 😊🙏
Excelentes personas.ingleses creo, saben apreciar lo que significa la CDMX para el mundo!!
Gracias 😊 Amamos CDMX! Una de nuestras ciudades favoritas 😍

The subway themed stations are super could spend a day exploring them alone 👍😊
Thanks again Kitti Jon🙏🏼😊☀️

Thanks Simon 😊 we wish we'd had more time to explore some more of the cool metro stations! Like you say you could spend a day just riding the metro and discovering them all 😊
Bienvenidos a mexico disfruten mucho saludos desde san luis potosi espero les encante esta gigantesca ciudad
¡Nos encantó nuestra estadía en la Ciudad de México y en México! ¡Su país es muy hermoso!
Museum of anthropology
Thanks for watching! 😊🙏
Wonderful video thanks.
Thank you 😊
My favorite city by faarrr
Yeees! I think we would have to agree with you Hector! :) thanks for watching!
8 Million people in City Proper, 21-22 in the metrópoli and 37 million in the greater Mexico city Megalopolis
That sounds correct 👍 we read 21-22 million people in the metropolitan area as well but didn't know the number for the Megalopolis. Thanks for sharing 😊
We spent two months in Mexico last year and didn’t get a chance to make it to Mexico City, next time!! Nice video!
Thanks guys! I'm sure you will make it to Mexico City one day soon! 😊
You are missing out México basically
Wooow, CDMX The long story short. Greetings from chilangolandia
Thanks for watching 😊 there's definitely a huge amount we didn't manage to do in CDMX...a good excuse to go back to this amazing city! 👍
I love your video, I really think you chose the best embarcadero in Xochimilco, I don't like too many people, I preffer peace and nature, why you didn't eat at the trajinera? There were not pepple selling food and drinks?
Thank you Ivan! We really appreciate it :) we are the same and even though it was more expensive we are glad we had the boat all to ourselves! It was so peaceful :) we arrived early in the morning and by the time we had finished our boat ride it was still only about 10am so we weren't hungry just yet! But you are right there are plenty of food vendors at the docks selling delicious food :)
❤❤❤❤🇲🇽
❤️❤️😊
You mentioned that there were two royal castles in North America that housed royalty in the past. Which is the other one?
The Palace of Iturbide (also in Mexico City)👍 along with Chapultepec Castle they were the only two royal 'palaces' in North America to be inhabited by monarchs. In the video I said 'palaces' not 'castles' 😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯🇲🇽🇲🇽
😊🇲🇽🇲🇽❤️
Chapultepec park, is 3 times bigger than Central park in NYC.
It is hugeee! And full of so many cool things to do 😊👍
@3:31
Did you say "Empress"?
What Empress ruled Mexico?
No we said 'emperors' not 'empress'👍
I am very intetested on how all travel blogs only talk about the same common spots and street food...the new margaritas it seem. Mexicans also eat at fondas and iconic restaurants like Sanborns, Vips, Toks, etc. And theres a lot more to see in mexico city appart fron la condesa or roma. You did something different, thank you.
Thank you :) we always like to get away from the major tourist centers when we can and experience something a little more off the beaten path! Of course the tourist spots are touristy for a reason (our next video will be about Teotihuacan) and we don't want to always skip them completely but we always find we enjoy the lesser known and more local places a lot more than where all the tourists flock to! :)
Right , they need to go to Santa Fè and Interlomas , Polanco .
Visiten Polanco los museos y acuario saludos
Gracias. We went to Polanco briefly...that was where the Cafebreria El Pendulo was located 👍 its a nice area but we didn't have time to explore it fully! Next time 😊
No es parque de Chapultepec es Bosque de Chapultepec
Bien gracias 👍
I need learn english
Thanks for watching! We hope your English learning goes well 😊
You are very misinformed, search and learn; Mexico City currently has 31 million people. ´nd 130 millon in country. check your sources
We did check our sources. Any search will show you that the metropolitan area of Mexico City has a population around 22 million as of 2022. I don't know where you got 31 million from but if you share your source we will happily check it out. As for the population of Mexico you are correct it is around 130 million but we never mentioned that in our video.
Eres pedante.
