Great guide, great tour, highly recommend

Published on Dec, 2024

Super friendly and helpful guide, happy to answer questions and take photos for you. The food and drinks tasting was great.

Tania was an AMAZING tour...

Published on Nov, 2024

Tania was an AMAZING tour guide for Teotihuacán! She gave us a clear meeting point and made sure we had blankets for the morning when it was cool plus water and snacks for us as it got warmer. She showed us the pyramids, the details and the gods, how the pyramids were laid out, and why the site was structured the way it was. She guided us through the museum and pointed out some artifacts she had mentioned earlier, then showed us sacred caves with modern and older religious meaning. On top of that, she had curated a five-course lunch with drinks and dessert which was incredible -- followed by a visit to see various minerals (including obsidian) and to taste various drinks (pulque, mezcal, pistachio liqueur). The tour was superbly organized and a delight. Much thanks to Tania: she was GREAT!

Goes beyond your expectations.

Published on Nov, 2024

This tour went beyond our expectations. Tanya was incredibly personable, fun, prepared and well-informed about everything she showed us. We learned so much and had a REALLY fun time with her. We felt absolutely taken care of. This tour with Tanya was the highlight of our entire trip to Mexico City. Thank you Tanya!

Take the Tour!

Published on Nov, 2024

This tour was wonderful. Tania truly thought of everything we may need for a day exploring Mexico's history from blankets and coffee for the early morning drive to the Teotihuacan archeological park to water, umbrellas, sunscreen and snacks for the 4 hour walking tour to helmets and flashlights for the cave exploration. Every detail was thought out and Tania passionately shared her knowledge of Mexico's origins with us. 10/10 recommend

Great way to spend a day!

Published on Nov, 2024

Great tour if you want to get a thorough understanding of the pyramids and experience the local area's geography and food. It's and intimate and fun way to experience a truly awe-inspiring archeological site. - This tour is great for parties that prefer the smaller group/party instead of the large tour buses. The itinerary is very thoughtful; you'll spend most of the day at the pyramids. There is a stop at a workshop to discuss the dogs, agave/mezcal and minerals local to Mexico, but there's no pressure to purchase anything. - Tan is a knowledgeable guide, very familiar with the site and can answer questions. - This tour sweats the small stuff, in the best way. The itinerary online is very detailed, which gave me a lot of comfort in what to expect. Tan made sure my friend and me were comfortable on the ride out and back with blankets, coffee and snacks, she had sunscreen, water and umbrellas, there was always toilet paper available and restroom stops were always noted. She even moved the car when my friend mentioned her ankle would sometimes get irritated, just so we would have a shorter distance to walk back. - Super glad to have a thoughtfully planned and delicious lunch!
