Tour Recomendado!

If you’re visiting Mexico City, I highly recommend combining the pyramids, mezcal tasting, and cave dining into one day. It was the perfect mix of history, culture, food, and unforgettable memories. Well organized tour! Recommended!

Great Experience

Our guide, Carlos, was fantastic, and our driver, David, picked us up right on time. Everything was very well organized from start to finish. The performance at the Cave Restaurant was enjoyable and added to the overall experience. One thing worth noting is that I expected the hot air balloon ride itself to last around 45 minutes to an hour. In reality, the actual flight time was about 30 minutes, with the remaining time spent on landing procedures and other logistics. I had no problem with that—I had simply seen other reviews mentioning 45 minutes to an hour and assumed that referred to the actual flight time. Overall, it was a great experience and one I would definitely recommend.
