Great site, great tour

Great all around. It's a very small group. Mine was two tour guides and three guests, so I had a one-on-one tour. Tour guide very good at explaining, and the site is fascinating. Not good for people with weak legs.

Amazing surprise

We got to the meeting point and that was obviously beautiful to walk to and see, and it was clear to see Jesus with the pink umbrella. And surprise it’s going to be a private tour with just me, my friend and Jesus! Could he have cancelled? Maybe, but he didn’t and we LOVED EVERY MINUTE!!!!! Jesus was just so knowledgeable and made us extremely comfortable. It was as if we were friends! I recommend and if you get Jesus. You are lucky!! It’s just as the itinerary stats. We did it all and learned so much. It was Hot but because we followed their recommendation of shoes, water and sunscreen, we were ready!!

A fantastic day trip to the pyramids with a knowledgeable and communicative guide.

Luis was our guide through the pyramids. Luis is a trained historian and had visual aids to clearly explain the eras of history of the area, the different indigenous peoples who were involved and how they developed these anthropological sites. He was knowledgeable, able to answer all kinds of questions, and extremely informative. There is no comparison between going to this on one's own vs. having the insight and perspective of someone as informed as Luis. Highly recommend!

Carolina was an excellent...

Carolina was an excellent guide. Just be aware that there is little shade and a lot of stairs, and not just the pyramids. I found the demo of the natural dyes used on the pottery most interesting.

Operator response

Thank you for your kind words! We’re happy you enjoyed the experience, especially the natural dyes demonstration, and we’ll gladly share your lovely feedback with Carmina 😊

Teotihuacan Pyramids Tour – Small Group Van from Mexico City

This was an excellent experience from start to finish. The group was truly small (16 people), which made everything feel organized, relaxed, and personal rather than rushed or crowded. Our guide was fantastic. They were incredibly knowledgeable and did a great job balancing full group explanations with extra one-on-one attention, taking time to answer questions in between stops. It really felt like we saw everything Teotihuacan has to offer within the three-hour tour, without ever feeling hurried. There was a last-minute change to the meetup location due to a ceremony happening in the city, but the guides handled it smoothly. Communication via WhatsApp was clear and very helpful, and they made sure everyone understood where to go and what was happening. Despite the change, everything stayed on track. Helpful tip for future travelers: if you’re getting to the meetup spot via Uber, give yourself extra buffer time. Mexico City always has a lot going on, and an Uber that says it’s “3 minutes away” can very easily still be 3 minutes away… 15 minutes later 😄 Overall, this tour was well-organized, informative, and thoughtfully run. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Mexico City who wants a thorough Teotihuacan experience without the stress of navigating it on their own.

Operator response

Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review! We’re glad everything felt well organized despite the adjustment, and that the experience flowed smoothly throughout. Creating a seamless and enriching visit is always our priority, we truly appreciate your recommendation 😊✨
