If you only have time for 1 tour do this one! - This was one of my favorite tours since it’s an absolute must to see the Guadalupe Basilica and Teotihuacan Ruins! Our tour guides Manuel and Alexa were both amazing and took turns breaking our groups into 2 groups offer you a Spanish and English tour for each attraction. They also allow you time to buy souvenirs at each stop just be warned the stop at Tequila tasting has lot high pressure sales people but I will admit I gave in and bought bottle tequila and some jewelry from Obsidian which is the famous dark volcánic glass! Restaurant for lunch also had good authentic food but we didn’t eat until almost 3:30pm so bring snacks if your used eating earlier. Make sure you do walking tour of Guadalupe you get climb up hill and see 2 other beautiful Churches and get great views of Mexico City. If you only have time to do 1 tour this is your best option see lot main attractions in 1 day!

A worthwhile experience! - What an interesting trip! We saw so much from the shrine of Guadalupe to the surrounding churches to the ruins of Teotihuacan. What gorgeous views! Our tour was made complete due to the wonderful tour guide. His explanations were clear and detailed and he made it fun for us.

Not to be missed - What a fantastic day!! Our guide, Fernando, was excellent. He was knowledgeable and caring. He spoke English well. The bus was comfortable, clean and air conditioned.
We saw the beautiful Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe. We also saw the pyramids which did not disappoint.
You will go to a gift shop where they will hold a tequila tasting and give you time to buy souvenirs. Although the items beautiful, they are overpriced. Would recommend buying from the local artisans who are willing to barter with you. There is also a better chance of helping a family instead of commercial setting.

Do not recommend - Two main issues with this trip -
a) the main attraction of the trip - the pyramid was the last stop in the itinerary instead of the first. Because of this, I could not visit museum or the temple since they were closed.
b) The tour guide/bus almost left a group of 10people including myself at the pyramid. They did not try to reach out to us via phone. We got lost at the pyramid because of which we could not reach on time. But instead of contacting us they decided to justeave without us.

Don't waste your money on the English guide - The “Teotihuacan, Guadalupe Shrine, Tlatelolco & Tequila Tasting” English tour is a very bad tour for many reasons. 1) The guide Alejandro does not know the history and speaks almost no English. If you want to learn more than "we were captured by the Spaniards and they built a church on the area of the pyramid," or “Ansteks hung out here” then this is not the place for you; 2) The guide Alejandro (see photos) delivers his "historical info" in completely inappropriate places like a gift shop instead of a church square; 3) There is no choice of cafes for lunch; 4) The pyramids will be visited at the end, after 5-6 hours. Our groups of 4 people dislike it very much.
Don't waste your time and money on this tour.
