Poor experience
Breakfast place is in a cold and dark cave which is a poor choice in winter. Food is bad and wastes precious time after the balloon ride. The mezcal tasting is poor quality and a significant waste of time and is a poorly cloaked way to sell trinkets. You only get ONE HOUR at the pyramids which feels rushed. We could not see the museum there or walk the entire grounds. The English speaking guide we had was a young women who could not answer questions & could only tell you info from the 3-ring binder she was given. The balloons were not blown up when we arrived & we were not in the air for sunrise. We wasted time at the balloon launching sight waiting for them to put us in the balloons in 43 degree Fahrenheit weather.
Operator response
Thank you for sharing your experience in such detail. We’re glad the hot air balloon flight and views were memorable, but we’re truly sorry for the aspects that didn’t meet your expectations: the cave breakfast in winter, the quality of the mezcal tasting, the limited time at the pyramids, and the organization at the launch site. We also take note of your feedback regarding the guide and the communication beforehand. Your comments are very valuable to us, as they help us improve every part of the experience and provide a more complete and satisfying service.
