★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 11,603 reviews · 9 hours (approx.) · from $39Our pick

Review of a Mexico City day tour to Tlatelolco, Guadalupe Shrine, and Teotihuacan, with transport, tequila tasting, and optional lunch.

“Fabulous day! Leonardo our guide and Luis our bus driver were excellent! A fabulous day chocked full of history and sights to see. Migas Cafe where we started our tour required people to wait in line and buy drinks to use the bathroom before our tour, which is the last thing we wanted to do before getting on a bus for a few hours, even going so far as the woman in the cafe locking people out until we showed a receipt. I get it if we're just strangers walking by, but I thought that was a rude way to start a tour, especially when we had no choice but…”

Visit Teotihuacan before the crowds with a guide, transport, pyramid views, obsidian workshop, and optional Mexican lunch from Mexico City.

“The pyramids are indeed unique but our guide did not seem to know much about the history or background at all. The tour was also a mix of english and spanish together and all his explanations were a bit longer in spanish and only a sentence in english. validating facts after the tour, we found he even gave wrong info. Also stopped at a lunch place where the tour had mentioned we’ll be allowed to choose from a buffet if we want but pushed us into another place with clearly a commission set up. Last, and not most important, but the bus wasn’t the most comfortable seats either. Do not…”

Review of a Teotihuacan balloon flight with sunrise views, cave breakfast, pyramid tour, transport, costs, timing, and practical tips.

“The hot air balloon trip was about $400 CAD per person. My partner and I decided it would be a great addition to our trip especially since we never experienced a hot air balloon ride. We were told we would need to be in up and ready for 4am as flights are around 6am-8am with the 6am sunrise spots being the most preferred. The day before the trip we were advised we would be on the 7:30am group and would need to leave at 5am. Transport arrived late 5:30am, then we arrived at 7:30am but our balloon did not arrive until 8:45 am. Prior to arrival, the tour guide advised…”
