Itinerary
We will depart from Mexico City early in the morning to ensure the best experience, avoiding lines and large crowds. At 7:55 am, we will begin our tour from Mexico City, which lasts approximately 50 minutes in total. We will make a stop at a shop halfway through to purchase coffee or anything else visitors might need, taking 10 to 15 minutes since there aren't many options at the archaeological site. We will arrive at the archaeological site a little before 9:00 am to begin our tour. We will visit the main buildings, such as the Temple of Quetzalcoatl and the majestic Pyramids of the Sun and Moon. We will walk approximately 2.5 km along the Avenue of the Dead and its main structures, receiving explanations from our expert guides. The guided tour will last approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes, and at the end, you will have free time to shop at local vendors. Departure from the archaeological site at 12:00 pm and arrival in the city between 1:00 and 1:30 pm. End of tour.

We truly enjoy this day trip. Yair was very knowledgeable and his English was perfect. All his explanations were very clear and concise and made our experience much more interesting. Everything was done precisely on time and as advertised there wasn’t a single tourist trap
This experience has been amazing for our family. Our tour guide, Yair, was very knowledgeable and made the experience smooth and enjoyable. We were able to climb the moon pyramid and the serpent temple. They gave us plenty of time to take the scenery in and take photos. Make sure to be at the pick up locations on time. The bus was right on time and left right on time. We would gladly book this tour again.
We loved the Teotihuacan tour. Ruben shared a lot of interesting facts about the history of Teotihuacan. He is very articulate with English. Many members of the tour group approached him to ask questions and he is very knowledgeable. He always had an answer.
One thing I want to emphasize is the price. We booked the Teotihuacán Highlight tour with twice more expensive than shared tour expecting better experience, but there’s no difference than shared tour which is cheaper. They don’t explain details between highlight and shared and cheating customers on booking more expensive one. Also we booked two weeks ahead. And two weeks later when we checked price again, the price between highlight and shared are almost same, but we are too late to cancel. Also there’s no heads up and confirmation email. We did have a trip and the guide is friendly. I don’t have problem for that. But pricing is not honest from the company I wish everybody knows.
Dear Customer, We sincerely regret that you were left with that impression. As we explained previously, you made your reservation well in advance at the price that was available at that time. Later, due to lower-than-expected demand, we introduced a temporary promotion to encourage new bookings. This is a common business practice within the tourism industry and is not intended to disadvantage customers who booked earlier. We understand that it can be frustrating to see a lower price after making a purchase. For that reason, as a gesture of goodwill, we already provided you with a partial refund, even though the tour was delivered in full and exactly as booked. We work hard every day to provide high-quality experiences, punctual service, and professional attention that have been recognized by hundreds of travelers. Therefore, we are saddened that this situation has had such a negative impact on your overall perception of the tour. We appreciate your feedback and will take your comments into consideration. Our goal is always to provide the best possible experience for all of our guests. Thank you for choosing us, and we wish you all the best. Kind regards,
This was an excellent tour! They were timely in picking us up at the designated location and explained the itinerary thoroughly. Yair, our English-speaking guide, was fantastic. He provided interesting information throughout the tour and allowed plenty of time for pictures. He was also happy to answer any questions to the best of his knowledge. The group size was small enough that when he spoke, we could all be close wlenough to hear. Another nice thing is, aside from a bathroom stop outside of the temple entrance, there are no additional stops. My husband and I highly recommend this tour and Yair!
Omar (the driver) was punctual and fast! Our tour guide Yair provided lots of interesting information and context about the structures we saw, the origins of their names, myths and also about the archaeological findings in the area! There was also plenty of time to climb the temple of the moon and get lots of photos! We were in a group of about 40 people which was split roughly in half for English amd Spanish guided tours once we reached Teotihuacan Duration: roughly 3hrs + 1hr bus ride either end
This trip could not of been better, pick up was at a very accessible area and the Omar our driver was excellent getting us to and from the adventure. Yair was by far the best tour guide I have had. His knowledge of the traditions and history made it such an immersive tour and I feel like I have a better understanding of the temples and history of area. The whole staff have been wonderful and so kind! Will recommend them to everyone I know that visits Mexico City!
FantasiIc experience! Knowledgeable guide with a sufficient balance of free moments to explore and photograph too.
