The 4 Full-Day Tours in Mexico City That Earn Their Price

1.Full-Day Tour Exploring the Waters of Tolantongo

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,277 reviews · 14 to 16 hours (approx.) · from $134Our pick

Small-group Tolantongo hot springs, caves, and river day trip from Mexico City with early pickup, breakfast, snacks, and included gear.

“We had a great trip!! The springs were beautiful. We went on a cooler day and on a Monday, so it was very quiet, which we loved. I went with six friends to celebrate a bachelorette, and all really enjoyed the hot springs, though the warm caves were honestly the standout. A phenomenal touch!! The trip to the area itself wasn’t bad, just a bit bumpy. The only real area for improvement was that the bus was quite cold on an already chilly day. That said, the drinks at the springs were great, and the staff there were wonderful. Overall, it’s a fantastic option for a day trip from Mexico…”

3.Teotihuacán Full Day Tour from Mexico City

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 265 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $118

Teotihuacán full-day tour from Mexico City with guided ruins walk, optional free bike ride, cave visit, and included lunch.

“The pyramids were the best part. The cave was somewhat interesting. Luckily the company provided helmets as the cave ceiling was often quite low. The co-op mini-tour was also interesting, but I don't like to be pushed to buy stuff. I especially didn't like the guide's comment to the effect that the husbands should be the ones buying jewelry for their wives. Maybe I want to buy some jewelry for my husband. The final meal was very good. I was glad for the vegan options”
