Great day with a great guide - This was a delightful day from beginning to end. Our guide was Roberto, he has a deep interest in the culture and the sights we visited. It was amazing to have such a knowledgeable person to take us to the hidden spots, overlooked corners, lesser-used entrances that we never would have found with a larger group. Every question was answered and our knowledge of Teotihuacan and its inhabitants grew immensely. Along the way, Mexico City life (and traffic) was explained. Our day finished at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe. An experience not to be missed. It was a splurge for us. But totally worth it!

pyramid visit with private guide. - I was picked up early in the morning and we got out to the pyramids early prior to the crowds. It is a must see attraction and my guide was essential in helping me understand the past and present. Visiting without a guide would have been a huge mistake for me. I was treated to a superb lunch nearby and also learned about the local arts and crafts.

Great for solo female travelers! - What a fantastic trip! I booked this as a solo female traveler and it was perfect. Roberto, the tour guide, and Rocio came to pick me up at my hotel and from then on I learned so much. The pyramids of Teotihuacán are a true wonder, and having a personal tour guide made all the difference. I travel a lot, and this has to be one of my most memorable trips. I felt safe and taken care of the whole time. Remember to bring a hat and lots of sunscreen! Highly recommend!

Great historical information - This tour gave us a good understanding of the history of the Mexican and Teotihuacan. The guide, Maximo was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. He took us to areas we would not have seen on our own. The driver, Eduardo was great. The information on agave, obsidian and silver we also very informative. Not a hard sell but an opportunity to see some high quality craftsmanship.

Teotihuacan and Guadalupe shrine - Beautiful sites both of them. Guide and driver were very nice, the guide was full of information. The place to eat was not very good. Waiters were very nice though.

Our tour guide was the best! - Ernesto, our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable! He gave us insight not only on the pyramids but on many other parts of Mexican history. I would recommend having a hearty breakfast if you are not including lunch, we didn’t and were hanging on by a thread by the end of the tour around 2pm. They were on time picking us up at the hotel, and even dropped us off at a restaurant we requested on the way back. Definitely recommend!

Beyond Expectations!!! - We had the pleasure of experiencing a fantastic tour with Mariana as our guide and Don Arturo as our driver. From start to finish, both were absolutely outstanding. Mariana was incredibly professional, always ensuring we felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire journey. She was also very knowledgeable of Mexico’s history, offering fascinating insights and details about each landmark we visited, which truly enhanced the experience. Don Arturo was on-time, ensuring we kept a smooth schedule without feeling rushed. He also drove with care, making the journey both safe and pleasant. The SUV was impecable. Both were patientand accommodating, especially when we needed extra time to explore or take photos. It was clear they both truly cared about making our experience memorable. I highly recommend this dynamic duo for anyone looking for a top-tier tour experience!
