Upon arrival in Teotihuacan, the tour will start with the Pyramid of the Sun, which you’ll be able to climb, heading next to the Pyramid of the Moon. The guide will provide you with explanations on the architecture and urban design of the site, which represents the Mesoamerican cosmovision, along with letting you see the way in which this civilization lived and was organized.

Join us on a breathtaking journey to Teotihuacán, known as the ‘City of the Gods’. Departing from Mexico City, we’ll arrive at Teotihuacán just as the sun begins to set, offering a truly unforgettable view of the changing hues of the sky. Our guided tour offers insights into the site’s history and archaeology, but you’ll also have free time to wander and discover on your own. Adding to the richness of the experience will be the stories, anecdotes, and latest discoveries that we’ll share throughout the tour. Following a brief overview of Teotihuacán, we’ll ascend the Pyramid of the Sun, then move on to the Pyramid of the Moon, with our guide explaining all about Mesoamerican architecture, design, and cosmology. Later, we’ll visit a local restaurant to enjoy authentic Mexican food. The journey concludes with a visit to an Obsidian workshop, where you can observe the artisans’ skills and their products, before we return back to Mexico City.

History-filled Adventure - We originally booked our tour for Thursday afternoon but they switched it to a morning tour, which was such a better option due to heat! Antonio was our tour guide and he was delightful :) The food was good with entertainment.

Teotihuacan Half-Day Afternoon Tour - Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and a joy to ride with, great experience! She arrived on time, and was very easy to coordinate with. She also shared a lot of the city's history with us along the way outside of the actual tour.

Amazing historic site made up for other problems. - Unfortunately, because roads closed for demonstrations, the guide Alexa had us take subway to meet bus. Very strenuous on hot day. Lost about 45 minutes because of this, and this shortened the visit to pyramids, but not to store and restaurant. Too bad. Alexa tried hard to give much information, switching constantly between Spanish and English, but she spoke much too fast, making it hard to understand her. The visit to store, ,where we were offered samples of several typical (?). drinks (not really tasting well) and pressured to buy overpriced items, was a waste of time. The bus was comfortable, and driver Fernando (?) was good. The amazing views of pyramids and other temples compensated for the problems.

Unreliable company, canceled at the last minute - Awful. We booked this tour back in January for a visit in April. They cancelled the day before the tour was supposed to take place, so we had no time to plan out an alternate visit to Teotihuacan since our schedule was already packed. This was one of the reasons we were traveling to Mexico City, so we were very disappointed in the unprofessional way the company canceled our tour at the last minute, when they had months and months to inform us that it wouldn't be happening. Truly awful.
