Itinerary

  • San Francisco Mazapa

    Flying over Teotihuacán in a balloon is an immersion in a magical journey through time. From the sky, ancient pyramids and monuments unfold majestically, silently telling the stories of past civilizations. This panoramic view from the air not only highlights the grandeur of this world heritage, but also deeply connects you with the essence of a culture that has marked history. Without a doubt, it is an experience that you should do at least once in your life. Your adventure begins around 4:30 am with pickup from your hotel lobby. We recommend bringing an extra battery, as you'll want to capture every moment, from the inflation of the balloon to the aerial views of the archaeological site. After a flight of 30 to 50 minutes, depending on weather conditions, a delicious breakfast awaits you to continue with the day. Please note that the maximum weight allowed is 110 kg (220 lb) per person; If you exceed this weight, please contact us before making your reservation.

Professional and friendly and attentive and kind and knowledgeable staff who took care of me and gave me the best day of adventures.

Best way to experience Teotihuacan!

Published on May, 2024

I was looking for a tour that offered Balloon ride and a guided tour of Teotihuacan, and this was one of the rare tours that offered this. We started the day early but there was a small miscommunication where the sister tour operator tried to pick us up 40 minutes before our stated pickup time. After we resolved that initial miscommunication, it was all smooth sailing. Angeles picked us up promptly at the right time, and drove us out to the Balloon takeoff site. The ride itself was fantastic! I was riding with two people who had a fear of heights, but this experience was enjoyable for both! It is extremely gentle ride, to the point that you don't even realize when you've lifted off. You don't need a jacket or anything as the heat from the propane flame can get quite warm. So, dress for a normal day. The flight lasted about an hour before we landed which is quite exciting as the pilot doesn't have directional control and it's a joint effort with the ground team to land the Balloon. We went back to the takeoff site for a decent breakfast while being serenaded by a Mariachi band. We weren't expecting this, so it was a nice surprise. After breakfast, we went to the tour office to sign some paperwork, and pick up our guide for Teotihuacan- Luis. Luis was phenomenal. He has great knowledge about the archeological site, and was very patient with us when we stalled to take photos. All of this made for a wonderful day - they were even able to take us to the Pyramid of the Feathered Serpent as we had enough time. I cannot recommend this experience enough. This is more expensive than the other tours that offer Teotihuacan Balloon and Site visit but it is absolutely worth it ad you get small group focus which truly elevates the whole experience. I would definitely choose Angeles and her team again.

Great tour

Published on May, 2024

Great tour and fantastic experience. Loved it. Baloon ride is great experience, loved every second of it. The guide during the walking trip after the ride was very knowledgable and it was really interesting. Breakfast and dinner that was included was edible although room for improvement always exists.

Excellent, amazing experience!

5 out of 5. Our guide Eloy was simply amazing. I’m not sure if you can request a particular guide but if you can Eloy can’t be beat. Super knowledgeable, passionate and spoke very good English.
