Overview

WELCOME TO THE BEST HOT AIR BALLOON ADVENTURE IN MEXICO Most popular experience on Airbnb. It is also the safest, funnest, with spacious baskets, a bilingual team and zero gimmicks (no tourists traps). Watch the two-thousand-year old city from the sky at sunrise. You will experience amazing eagle-views. It will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our balloon company has the highest proffessionalism and safety standards. All of the pilots are well-trained and hold a valid license. Beware of doing this experience with companies with low or no safety standards. When safety is paramount, go with the pros. We start the pick-ups around 5 am and will be back in CDMX around 1 pm or well before, if you only do the ride. After the balloon flight, we will take you to a breakfast buffet in the best restaurant in the area. Once you are done eating, we will go inside the archeological zone where you will have 1.5 hours of free time to explore it on your own.

What a wonderful day!

Published on Dec, 2024

We loved the experience from pick up until we were dropped back in CDMX. Javier’s team was very welcoming and everything went smoothly with great timing throughout the day. We recommend this experience. Must book with them

A must-do while in CDMX!

Published on Dec, 2024

We had a great experience with Javier! We booked just the hot air balloon ride with transportation to/from CDMX. Communication prior to pick-up was great, our ride was comfortable, and instructions were clear once we arrived at the launch point. The balloon ride was so beautiful and definitely worth the early morning! Would absolutely recommend booking with Javier.

Amazing experience

Published on Dec, 2024

This was a great experience with Javier and his team. Good communication and everything was smooth. We were a group of 8 and they picked us up right from our Airbnb which was amazing. The pilot was excellent and the flight was unbelievably beautiful. The ground team was great and they had to work hard when a gust of wind took us off course and we landed in a corn field. The tour of the pyramids was worth the extra and the guide was very nice. Breakfast was just ok but would overall highly recommend the whole experience to everyone.

The most incredible experience of my life!

Published on Nov, 2024

Such an amazing experience!!! They were so good about staying in communication with me from beginning to end! I have to admit I was nervous about getting on a hot air balloon but after watching all the safety precautions taken, I felt really comfortable. The ride itself was so peaceful the feeling you get watching the sunrise amongst the other balloons was completely breathtaking. We got really close to the pyramids it was amazing! I would recommend this for all ages!!

Amazing

Published on Nov, 2024

Beautiful experience! Everyone was friendly and made it fun. Went with a group and we all enjoyed it. Smaller, intimate, and the ride back is a plus
