Highly recommended! Thank you, Alex for making it memorable! - We really enjoyed our tour with Alex. Alex texted the night before to remind us to bring sunscreen, hats, sunglasses and water for the tour. He was punctual and we even made it to the site before the gate opened! We really appreciated his wealth of knowledge on the archeology and all the things we should learn about the great Teotihuacán. If you are thinking about what tour to sign up, this is the one!

No BS tour from a real expert - Alex was an extremely knowledgeable and friendly guide, who provided us with not only the history of Teotihuacan, but background information on Mexico as well. His unique perspective as an archaeologist allowed us to learn about the archaeological process of uncovering and preserving Teotihuacan, information we wouldn’t have been able to get first hand from many other guides. He was also honest with us when we asked questions that didn’t have concrete answers due to lack of found evidence (such as specific information about the pre-Aztec society who originally built the city). No tourist traps, Alex was polite to all the vendors we passed and they backed off. Alex was also very accommodating even though we booked last minute, and was able to get us on the tour less than 12 hours before the meeting time, with a personalized meeting location. Water bottles were provided as well, which was much needed in the sun and climbing the temples. We would be happy to take another tour with Alex and Huapango Travels the next time we return to Mexico City!

Fun and educational - David and Garbiñe gave us a fabulous tour of Teotihuacán. They were prompt picking us up, took us to our favorite bakery and coffee shop that we visited every day after that. Garbiñe was super knowledgeable about all of the anthropology and archaeology of the site, an amazing wealth of information we couldn’t believe how much she knew and could answer any type of question and didn’t stop sharing information all day. We couldn’t believe she had a voice left!! They were free in the afternoon and extended the day (we hadn’t had enough of their lovely company ) by taking us to a wonderful lunch and a tour of the anthropology museum. they are very flexible and David is super responsive and can create your dream tour. I highly recommend reaching out and taking a tour.

An incredible tour - highly recommend - We had an absolutely pitch perfect experience. Travel to and from was comfortable and seamless - and the actual experience exceeded all of our expectations. Our guide, Alex, was above and beyond; punctual, experienced, knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and truly hosted a magnificent experience overall. The Pyramids of Teotihuacán were incredible- and it was a day we’ll always remember to explore and learn all about them and the surrounding area. Bring water, maybe small snacks and a hat and sunglasses. And

Amazing tour - Alex is an amazing person. He explains in detail the history of the pyramids. I would highly recommend doing this tour with Alex. Shot out to him for assisting me with climbing the stairs as I am afraid of heights.

Love David! Love Armando! - We did the Xochimilco and Teotihuacan tours with David and Armando. They were both amazing! The drive to Teotihuacan was fantastic with David. He was so flexible to all of our silly needs like multiple coffee stops, and suggested we stop by a panderia on the way to fuel ourselves. On the drive to, he taught us all about Mexico City outside of the city center. He even helped me improve my Spanish! Teotihuacan was awesome, and he helped us breeze past all the tourist trappy things. Love them!
