Mexico City · TOUR REVIEWS
Four days or a fortnight, the problem is the same: a city of nine million with a pyramid complex, a canal network and a pilgrimage basilica attached. The 15 below are the days that earn their place, priced and timed, with the full catalogue underneath.
See Tlatelolco, Guadalupe Shrine, and Teotihuacan in one day, with transport, a guide, tequila tasting, and optional buffet lunch.

See Coyoacán, Casa Azul or Casa Kahlo, UNAM murals, and Xochimilco by trajinera on a full-day Mexico City tour.
“It is a pretty full experience, but one books way ahead , so a good reminder for exactly what is booked will be good.. did not know if we had tickets to Frida Kahlo house for example, said-nothing g is included and i could check options, but it was already paid for. The guide said we should have seen this and that after we finished, but other guides said what they should look for. A bug miss. Also guide spoke too fast, better to have separate explanation by each language, it was more noise than information.”

“Excellent tour of the site. YAHIR our guide was brilliant, he gave us great detail about the history and details of the architecture. He catered for all the needs of the group and took time to chat and answer everyone’s questions. He had a welcoming and fun interaction with us all. Our driver Roberto got us to and from the City safely and efficiently. Would highly recommend this tour.”

“We had an amazing, life-changing experience! There's no need to arrive before 5:45–6:00 AM. One of my favourite moments was watching the balloons fill up at ground level before takeoff—such a beautiful sight. Highly recommend! Our pilot was fantastic and very accommodating.”

“Absolutely Amazing! Must Do! Feb 11/2026 & temps 10-15*C Absolutely Amazing Experience! (Hot Air balloon & Breakfast-No pyramid tour) Day started with a 5-530am pick up. If your accomodations are in the tourist areas (Roma/condesa ext areas) our hotel did not show up on their list, but we talked to Volare and they said it was good. Driver was great! About an hour or so drive to site, once there you check in, grab some coffee, light snack options (apples, pineapple Cookie tarts) Once checked in you can stand outside and watch them set up (from afar) there's heat lamps outside too and a little vender selling poncho sweaters and…”

“Had a wonderful day on this trip. Ruben and Alex were great guides and spoke excellent English. They had great knowledge of all the history and made it very interesting and were approachable with any requests as I needed help with gluten free food for lunch. They made the day great fun as well. Really enjoyed the Xochimilco canal boat ride. Great to see the iconic Frida Kahlo house museum. Would had like more time exploring Coyoacan. Was a really great trip.”
Review of the Teotihuacan balloon flight, cave breakfast, mezcal tasting, and pyramid tour from Mexico City, with practical booking advice.
“The planned experience was interesting once it happened… after waking up at 4am on our scheduled day we were held at the hot air balloon base for 4.5 hours before they told us they were canceling it for the day due to winds. However we watched every other tour company fly that same day and they would not assist people to book with another tour. Not a single guide gave us any direction on what was happening so we were all standing outside in 40 degree weather clueless, while we watched them making TikTok’s inside another floor. There was also no heat and the space to stand inside had an…”
Fly over Teotihuacan at dawn, eat breakfast in a cave, explore the pyramids, and return to Mexico City with hotel pickup.
“Loved the archeological site. Balloon ride is great if you’ve never done one (l hadn’t). Enjoyed the fire pit and coffee at the start. Great guide (though didn’t guide us through the archeological site which was totally fine by us - just something to know). Would skip the cave breakfast and tequila tasting next time. Our guide was great but nobody tipped her even though she deserved it. This is likely due to there being tip jars and signs absolutely everywhere (in the Van, in the balloon, in the restaurant where a server told us tip was not included); also due to it being really really difficult to get small…”
Review of the private Teotihuacan tour from Mexico City, with early pickup, expert guides, pyramid views, transport, tasting, and practical tips.
“My sister and I did this private Teotihuacan tour and it was one of the best choices we made in Mexico City. The private pickup made everything easy, and the early departure really helped us avoid the worst of the traffic and crowds. Our guide, Aldo, truly brought the site to life. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and shared clear, interesting context as we walked through the major areas, including the Pyramid of the Moon, Pyramid of the Sun, and the Temple of the Feathered Serpent. He was also genuinely flexible and worked with us the whole time. We were both recovering from hip surgery, and while we could walk, he kept…”
See Cholula’s great pyramid, Tonantzintla’s Indigenous Baroque church, and Puebla’s historic center on an 11-hour trip from Mexico City.
“After receiving stern warnings to be on time, our driver (Juan) was 40 minutes late, citing heavy morning traffic. I was on the point of cancelling when the van finally arrived. We then started driving *into* the historic centre for a second pickup at 9:20am for a second pickup! I have been on other tours that dealt much better with the morning rush. This meant we set off from Mexico City around 10:20, and were caught in further queues on our way to Puebla. He also went to the wrong side of the cathedral square which caused a further delay. The tour guide was often having to give him navigation…”
Explore Teotihuacan with a bilingual guide, early or afternoon access, pyramid views, an obsidian workshop, tequila tasting, and optional lunch.
“Good guided visit, nice amount of time on the site. Definitely worth the early start. Artisanal market at the end is quite pricey. Meal excellent.”
Pick a ruin, a canal, a kitchen or a ring.
