Amazing, breathtaking and beautiful! - We absolutely love this as it is the best way to sew the Pyramids without spening hours walking, especially for those with mobility challenges. We did learn that the transportation option is probably best as 3 Uber drivers canceled on us as fewer drivers were available that early in the morning. Excellent communication from the tour operators!

A beautiful morning!! - Oh man what an experience. Our driver Roberto picked us up early in the morning and drove us to the sight. We met our guide Rueben, he briefed us about the balloon ride and gave us some info about the historical sight! We had coffee, and some pastry and got into our balloon shortly after that. The views were spectacular, truly unforgettable.
When we landed our driver Roberto picked us up promptly and drove us into town for breakfast. The restaurant was very cute and the food was so good! We relaxed there and then Rueben showed up to take us around the pyramids! He is such a knowledgeable guide, with great English. He took us all over the sight for maybe, 3hrs! Afterwards we went back to the restaurant and had a beer with him and his wife who owns and cooks for the restaurant. It was so great hanging out with them. They live in that town and it was so wonderful to hear so much history from a person who has grown up right next to the historical sight!!!
We loved everything about it. Highly recommend, ballon ride with breakfast and a guided tour!!!!

Amazing Experience! - Had a great experience to Teotiachan with TeoTours MX. We had a private driver Ignacio who was great and attentive. The hot air balloon ride was breathtaking and the on site tour added a lot more context and history. If you want to experience the views and see the pyramids and ruins up close this is a great way to do it.

5 star, valuable memory - Everything here was amazing.
Tour: our tour is a graduate from the History of UNAM years ago, who researched the bottom of the Pyramid of The Sun in an Archaeology course he took. He grew up in this area and has a passion for his land and its history. Touring with him was a blessing.
Ballon: perfect timing, warm vibe, spectacular photography moment. Everything I expected and I was amazed.
Private Transportation: we two were picked up by a private car from our hotel and the driver took great care of us. He was with us throughout the tour from the beginning to the end back to our hotel. We felt valued and respected.
Breakfast: As a Chinese staying in Mexico for two weeks from Cancun, Tulum, Guanajuato, Saint Miguel to CDMX, I would say I had the best traditional Mexican breakfast here. Can you believe it? It's a personal comment but I guarantee my words.

Beautiful early morning... - Beautiful early morning views of the pyramids from the sky. Chilly at 5am, so layer up, because it gets warm by mid morning. Pickup at my hotel was easy and the ride from Polanco was about an hour to the
"balloon-port". I was flying solo this trip, so it was just me and the driver in his sedan, and the driver spent the entire day "on call", shuttling me to the balloons, on to the restaurant, to the pyramid parking, and ultimately back to my hotel. He wasn't the guide - that was someone else that I met at the balloon-port who actually guided me through the experience, including the walking tour of the pyramids.
Lovely balloon time - about 100 balloons in the air on a Saturday morning, so there was a lot going on, but it was really beautiful and you can't beat a sunrise view from the sky. Great overhead view of the historical site and surrounding land.
Breakfast at a local place was simple and tasty (I love chilaquiles). Ended up hanging around waiting after my meal for nearly an hour as the guide for the walking tour was waiting for a few more people to come out from the city to meet up. (This waiting is why I only gave 4 stars).
Guide handled tickets for the pyramid park, was knowledgeable, and had talking aids like maps and photographs. We spent a couple of hours walking the pyramids: make sure to wear comfortable shoes and expect a lot of walking on gravel and some steep stairs.
I was expecting the end to end to be 5-6 hours, but it was tracking to 8+ hours, so I asked to cut my portion a little short to get back into town. (5a pickup, thought i'd be back by 11a, barely made it back by 1p)

A must if you’re in the CDMX area. - Great overall experience and ended up being just as advertised. Seeing the whole process of how the balloons are set up to fly and then deflated afterwards was very interesting. The views over the pyramids is truly something to be seen. I would give 5 stars (even 4.5), but I purchased the 5 AM excursion, but was told afterwards that there was no transport available and that I’d have to do the 6 AM. My intention was to be onsite for sunrise however luck was on my side and there was a lot of fog for the 5 AM and it burned off by the time my group went up! 😂
Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I got some wonderful photos.
