Perfect. - We booked this tour from Mexico City and did not regret it. First of all, of course we were the only customers of this title, the company did not attempt to move it or cancel it which is a huge positive because, just Teotihucan, the entrances to the site and the private speaker guide assigned to us would have cost us more than the entire tour if we had gone there on our own. In other words, the company probably lost money that day. The three tours are particularly interesting and allow to discover some parts of the history of Mexico little known to foreigners like us. Our guide Vanessa was attentive and very informative throughout the day and especially she is a professional guide, so she knew her subject at her fingertips. Andrés our driver had a smooth and pleasant ride, anticipating any potential difficulties. The vehicle that was used for the excursion was immaculately clean and at the end of the day Andrés was kind enough to drop us off at our Airbnb rather than at the drop-off point originally scheduled. Moreover, last point to note, although the agency usually wakes up with a restaurant in the surroundings for lunch the latter was not imposed on us. We would like to have lunch in a more typical place and had found an address (a few meters from the planned restaurant), which was no problem. I highly recommend this title for the quality of its organization and the professionalism of the Ballons City team!
