A beautiful morning!! - Oh man what an experience. Our driver Roberto picked us up early in the morning and drove us to the sight. We met our guide Rueben, he briefed us about the balloon ride and gave us some info about the historical sight! We had coffee, and some pastry and got into our balloon shortly after that. The views were spectacular, truly unforgettable. When we landed our driver Roberto picked us up promptly and drove us into town for breakfast. The restaurant was very cute and the food was so good! We relaxed there and then Rueben showed up to take us around the pyramids! He is such a knowledgeable guide, with great English. He took us all over the sight for maybe, 3hrs! Afterwards we went back to the restaurant and had a beer with him and his wife who owns and cooks for the restaurant. It was so great hanging out with them. They live in that town and it was so wonderful to hear so much history from a person who has grown up right next to the historical sight!!! We loved everything about it. Highly recommend, ballon ride with breakfast and a guided tour!!!!

Amazing Experience! - Had a great experience to Teotiachan with TeoTours MX. We had a private driver Ignacio who was great and attentive. The hot air balloon ride was breathtaking and the on site tour added a lot more context and history. If you want to experience the views and see the pyramids and ruins up close this is a great way to do it.

5 star, valuable memory - Everything here was amazing. Tour: our tour is a graduate from the History of UNAM years ago, who researched the bottom of the Pyramid of The Sun in an Archaeology course he took. He grew up in this area and has a passion for his land and its history. Touring with him was a blessing. Ballon: perfect timing, warm vibe, spectacular photography moment. Everything I expected and I was amazed. Private Transportation: we two were picked up by a private car from our hotel and the driver took great care of us. He was with us throughout the tour from the beginning to the end back to our hotel. We felt valued and respected. Breakfast: As a Chinese staying in Mexico for two weeks from Cancun, Tulum, Guanajuato, Saint Miguel to CDMX, I would say I had the best traditional Mexican breakfast here. Can you believe it? It's a personal comment but I guarantee my words.

Favorite Day of our trip! 100% recommend the Hot air balloon and pyramid tour! - My boyfriend and I did the hot air balloon excursion and last minute decided to tack on the pyramid tour and had the absolute best day. Transportation was so simple, picked us up from our airbnb and brought right to balloon center. The hot air balloon center was clean, efficient and helpful. The hot air balloon operator and the men on the ground were so kind, funny, and made us feel very safe. The ride was so smooth and stunningly beautiful and i would absolutely recommend this excursion to everyone going to Mexico City!! The pyramid tour after was also fantastic. We were driven from the hot air balloons to breakfast at a very cute restaurant and then dropped at the pyramids w our guide Ruben. He was unbelievably knowledgeable about the pyramids, the history, the art everything. He was the highlight of our day and we learned so much more than we would have if we didn’t have him! He went the extra mile to tell us everything he knew and his passion for this history and his culture was extremely apparent. Ruben was so kind and is local to the area and we got a very authentic view of this part of Mexico. His wife also operates the restaurant we stopped at for breakfast which was so great. Do not skip the guided tour if you love architecture and history! After everything they dropped us right back off at our airbnb! Would 100% highly recommend this entire excursion - it was our favorite day on our trip!!! The trip organizers were also incredibly helpful in changing our reservation and pushing it back a day due to some last minute circumstances and I cannot thank them enough for their help and very speedy communication!!!

The most comfortable and complete experience you can find! - This experience is the most complete one that you can find to get on a hot air balloon and also walk around the Teotihuacán pyramids. My friend and I were delighted by the tour. First of all, first thing in the morning, you get to ride the hot air balloon over the pyramids, and after this adventurous experience, they take you to a house to have a delicious breakfast. After having breakfast, you get to visit a craftsmanship market that also includes a short tour of aspects of the culture, such as their precious stones and flora and fauna. Lastly, if you opt for it, you can visit the Teotihuacán pyramids and will be back at CDMX before noon, having the whole afternoon for yourself. We had a blast!

AMAZING trip! - This was such a well organized tour to take. Our driver arrived to our hotel when expected and did a great job of getting us to Teotihuacan and the launch site. He escorted us through all the paperwork, which was very helpful, and showed us where to get some coffee and pastries prior to takeoff. The entire process from getting the balloons inflated, watching them takeoff, and getting us loaded in was seamless, smooth, and wonderful! The views from above Teotihuacan are AMAZING! This is definitely worth doing!
