Great guided tour on less crowded Monday - We had such a great day! Picked us up right on time. All day was right on schedule. Our driver did an amazing job both there and back. Luis our guide was so knowledgeable and thoughtful! We enjoyed the site. Incredible, piece of history. The stop to see the obsidian and tequila was fun. The bike ride made us wish we had booked a place to stay there so we could have tried several of the restaurants! The cave was cool. The lunch was good, some entrees better than others depending on your taste! All in all a wonderful day to see some ancient history!! Research the site then go the museum of anthropology to see all the artifacts they have saved from the site.

Different than expected, but still great. - The bike portion was not what we expected, but still enjoyable. I wish our guide would have paused periodically so we could take pictures of the pyramids from a distance. Then again, I guess we could have just stopped and he would have come back for us. All in all, it was a great experience--just not quite what we imagined.

Seamless Adventure: Highly Recommended Tour with Insightful Local Guide Ramon - What an incredible and effortless experience! From booking to logistics and the adventures, we highly recommend this tour. Our guide, Ramon, is a local who provided great insights on the pyramids, the site, and even shared personal experiences from his childhood memories. His knowledge and expertise added value to our tour.

Great experience! - This was a great tour! The tour guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.
If you are booking this tour through Tripadvisor, I recommend checking if you have transportation included or not. We booked the tour that did not include transportation from our hotel so we decided to take the metro and the bus to Teotihuacan. It was fairly simple but when we arrived at the pyramids, we were a bit confused about how to get to the location.
We ended up having to pay for our pyramid visit tickets out of pocket (even though it is included in the tour) so we could take a shortcut cross through the pyramids and arrive at the meeting location. The walk is not too far but since it was our first time there, we were a bit confused.
Once we found the location, the company greeted us with local bread, cookies and coffee and they refunded us the cost of the ticket. If you chose to take the bus to this location, I suggest arriving early so you can find and walk to the location. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and I would do it again.

Fun, varied and great fun - Eloy was a great guide, offering insight and information throughout. The added fun of cycling around the nearby area (which included going underground in a cave system, and visiting a local co-operative) made the whole day diverse and very fun.

Best way to see Teotihiacan - This was the best tour we have done anywhere in the world. So much fun. Not only was Ramon a wonderful guide, you got to see the pyramids from a unique perspective as you arrived on bike and then circled the site. There were also several stops that I don't think are on other tours so you get to see a larger portion of Teotihiacan. This is the best way to do it!

Teotihuacán Tour: Temples Triumph, Bikes and Basics Need Boost - The Teotihuacán walk and bike tour offers a mixed experience. The highlight is undoubtedly the walking tour of the temples, where the guide's deep knowledge shines, bringing the ancient ruins to life with captivating stories and insights. This portion of the tour is both engaging and educational, providing a memorable exploration of this historic site.
However, the bike segment falls short of expectations. Limited visibility due to biking outside the fence and a noisy bike can detract from the experience. Additionally, the frequent requests for tips from vendors at lunch, while understandable once, become overbearing with multiple performances.
Transport-wise, the lack of air conditioning in the van, with a requirement to keep windows down, impacts comfort, especially in warm weather.
In summary, while the walking tour is fantastic thanks to the expert guide, the bike tour and some logistical aspects could be improved for a better overall experience.
