Great tour! - We love this tour! I was traveling with my young adult daughter, and we wanted a fun way to visit and learn about the Pyramids and this was just perfect. Our guide Luis was fantastic, very knowledgeable and helpful. It was fun to use the public transit back and forth and get to know the system a bit. An overall great day.

Informative, fun, memorable trip to Teotihuacan - We had an amazing tour guide, Ulysses Guerrero 'Warrior', who is so knowledgeable and really brings things to life and 'connects the dots'. We are so grateful we did this tour instead of figuring it out ourselves. Highly recommend!!!!!

Great Experience for the Price - Carmina was an excellent guide and we learned a lot on our Tour. Expect to take many forms of public transportation which we were not expecting but truly made it an unforgettable experience. We took buses, four wheelers and a train. Plan to be on your feet all day and pack sunscreen, plenty of water and snacks and a hat. Would definitely recommend this tour if you’re in Mexico City!

Awesome experience! - Our guide,Julio, was professional and kept a good pace. It was an informative and immersive experience. It was definitely a workout, but I highly recommend going. The pyramids are spectacular and still so much mystery!
