The hot air balloon ride over Teotihuacán was one of the best moments of our trip. The sunrise views are spectacular, and exploring the pyramids afterward was fascinating. Everything was very well organized, and the combination of the flight with the visit to the archaeological site made for an unforgettable day. Additionally, we want to highlight Hermes, an excellent guide: very kind, attentive, and with great knowledge of the history of the pyramids. His explanations made the experience even more special.
Balloon viewing of pyramids was lovely, early entry to walk the pyramids was a good choice followed by meal afterwards. We booked for 6 and 2 got sick the night before and were unable to attend and we asked for a refund of only their balloon ride costs, pyramid entry tickets and meals and were totally stonewalled with no response after multiple requests. Would not book with this company as I felt it was greatly over priced for the experience-would arrange on your own.
Endless thanks to Justine and Ricardo for an AMAZING day trip from Mexico City to Teotihuacán. The hot air balloon ride was one of the most magical experiences my Mom and I have had so far in our travels. Then, to walk around the site and learn so much from Justine, incredible! We also really appreciated Ricardo ensuring we traveled all around safely. We highly recommend this experience!
Professional; timing accurate; friendly staff. We enjoyed the entire morning. Views spectacular and trip was just as promised.
Howard our guide is very efficient and knowledgeable. And Ricardo our driver is good too. Highly reconnect this tour 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😀 Truly, Teotihuacan is amazing!!!
Such a great experience and totally worth it. Our guide, Howard, was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and helpful. He and Carlos (driver) were professional, polite and fun. The combination of balloon ride, historical ruins tour and lunch at a lovely eatery was fantastic. We would highly recommend this to others.
The highlight of our Mexico City was this it's a early morning one but I think it's worth getting up early one day on your holiday, the tour guide and driver both were very good and the best was breakfast
Wonderful in every way. Transportation was perfect, balloon ride was magnificent, Teotihuacan site tour was awesome. Huge thanks to Jacqueline and Fernando and our balloon pilot for providing a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Etienne Flores was punctual, pleasant and professional. Highly recommended. Made the whole process easy and fun for my family of 5.
The only way to see the pyramids is by hot air balloon, and the only way to get there is in the comfort of private transportation with a friendly driver, and then the guided tour too with our guide - it was the best day out, well worth it, and the whole day ran smoothly. Breakfast was a real treat too.
