We went on a Private tour with Ligia. She picked us up and detoured to some central city points for a photo opportunity. She was well versed in the history of Mexico and as it stands today. She took us to the Pyramids where we were given a guide on the ruins. The place has so much history. We were then taken to a lovely recommended restaurant where we had a lovely dinner ( we loved the green sauce they gave us). I would recommend this tour if you want to have comfort of transport picking you up and dropping you off, history talk, and nice food. Ligia was a brilliant guide.

Geovana and Abraham were awesome tour guides! Geovana is very knowledgeable about the history of Teotihuacán and was very accommodating of us. Would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to explore Teotihuacán and learn a little bit more about local culture.
Me and my friends had an amazing tour! Our tour guide was such a sweet lady and filled with so much knowledge. We honestly also appreciate her telling a bit of the history of the CDMX as we were driving out of the city. Even the whole drive there was filled with more facts about the towns. Nice we arrive there she quick into the tour of the pyramids. We did an amazing job explaining everything that was being shown to us. We appreciate that it was also in English so we could understand everything. Overall she did an amazing job at walking us through and even gave us a bit of few time to walk and take pictures of our own.
We had an amazing private tour at the Teotihuacan Pyramids. Andres was our tour guide. He picked us up on time at our hotel and is very polite. This is our first time there and he gave us an amazing introduction and explained everything in detail. We had an amazing time!
