Early Teotihuacan tour with an expert English guide, round-trip CDMX transport, and a focus on pyramids, architecture, and photos, not shopping.
“DO NOT BOOK WITH THIS OPERATOR! I reached out before the 24 hour deadline per their policy in order to cancel because both of my parents were sick with food poisoning and could not make it. I never heard back. I reached out again, asking if I could reschedule the tour for my parents for another time when they were feeling better as an alternate option. I still received no response. Then I went to the location of the pick up in order to talk to somebody, but nobody had the authority to rebook my parents or issue a refund. After following up after the activity to check on the…”

Sunrise balloon over Teotihuacan plus a cave breakfast and guided ruins walk, with hotel pickup and simple, high-value logistics.
“Pros: Our driver was so nice and informative. The balloon ride was unforgettable, what an incredible experience!! The ride is so smooth, the staff are professional and experienced. Breakfast was great! We met wonderful people. The tour guide at the ruins, Jesus, was very sweet, knowledgeable, and well-meaning. Cons: We were extremely rushed at the ruins. It appeared to be because the company was incredibly disorganized. This was not the fault of the guide however we missed so much at the ruins and feel it could have been a much better experience. It was a major disappointment.”

“Angelo was an amazing guide, really informative and multilingual to cater for the different nationalities. He was very friendly and knowledgable, sharing info on the lake and cenotes as we went.

You are also welcome to stick around afterwards and use the other facilities”

“We clicked for an English guide, and our guide spoke 99% Spanish to the others in our group. The only English we got was "sr you ready, get in boat" maybe a total of 10 words in English. Our guide never told us his name. At one point we were stuck on a sandbar and the rest of the group, guide included, just kept going. We did not get any explanation of the surroundings but we did enjoy the nature. The group that was with us, got very long chats(maybe explanations of the surroundings???) It would have been very nice to actually get someone with a little more English. Yes…”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
