Great tour and guide, knowledgeable, punctual, and not rushed! recommended for sure! - It was a great day tour with our tour guide Ana! The pick up at the airport was punctual! the cafe stop before the tour was good. The Teotihuacan site was amazing, with some suprise bonuses! (bring good footwear and something to drink for sure!) The following part at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe was amazing too! No rush, awesome tour, well worth the money for the private tour! it was a great day!

Hot Air Balloon Ride Plus Pyramids at Teotihuacan - We were in Mexico City for six days and wanted to take a hot air balloon ride over the pyramids and then visit the Teotihuacan site. The company organized everything for us and the trip went off without a hitch. Pickup from our hotel was early (4:45). We were taken to the Globo balloon airport to board Neptuno. This was a private ride with only the four of us. Watching the sunrise over the mountains was spectacular and made the early start well worth while. The view of the site was wonderful and gave us a terrific perspective. Following a safe landing, we were taken back to Globo’s office for a hot breakfast. Our guide Oscar then brought us to the Teotihuacan site where we explored for over three hours. What an educational and cultural experience that enabled us to appreciate the ruins in all their beauty. All in all a wonderful day.

A great day in Tlatloc territory! - Thank you Marco for a very pleasant day on this extraordinary site of Teotihuacan. You shared with us passionately the history of the site and pre-Hispanic culture. The whole family 👪 now dreams of Coyolxauhqui and Tecuciztecatl.

Amazing Tour!!! - This tour was amazing!! I had 8 hours between flights and we scheduled a tour during this time. Fernando, our driver, was already waiting for us in the airport and helped us with everything. Our luggage was safely stored with them. Arturo, the guide, was amazing, very knowledgeable, knew how to answer every question and was super nice!! I would 100% recommend this!

Private tour teotihuacan and museum - My husband and I hired a private tour to Teotihuacan and museum of anthropology. It's a wonderful way to get to know these places. Our guide, Marco, shared with us a lot of knowledge in mythology and Mesoamerican history, which made us enjoy and get the most out of this experience

Very nice experience - We did the Free walking tour is Spanish with Emiliano, a spectacular guide, who knows very much the secrets of the DF and its historic center. He told us many stories of each of the places we walked (for almost 3 hours) and of the typical places and meals we had to know or try. We learned a lot, from someone who knows the subject well and has a respectful, friendly and fun handling.

The Teotihuacan Pyramids and La Gruta restaurant - It was a fun trip to the pyramids, albeit a little taxing considering our age. However the climbs are well worth it and the guide was efficient and knowledgeable. Gave us a lot of time to climb and walk at a good pace while giving the history of the area. I regret we didn't take the sunrise Balloon tour as well. Its a good idea to take a tour that covers the Balloon ride, Pyramids and La Gruta. You will be out at 5am and return by lunchtime to Mexico City.
