1.Hot Air Balloon Flight with Breakfast Cave and Pyramids Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,066 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $140Our pick

Review of Teotihuacan balloon flight, cave breakfast, pyramid tour, timing, safety, value, transport, and practical booking advice.

“The planned experience was interesting once it happened… after waking up at 4am on our scheduled day we were held at the hot air balloon base for 4.5 hours before they told us they were canceling it for the day due to winds. However we watched every other tour company fly that same day and they would not assist people to book with another tour. Not a single guide gave us any direction on what was happening so we were all standing outside in 40 degree weather clueless, while we watched them making TikTok’s inside another floor. There was also no heat and the space to stand inside had an…”

Review of a Teotihuacan hot-air-balloon tour from Mexico City with cave breakfast, mezcal tasting, hotel pickup, and pyramid access.

“The hot air balloon ride was an unforgettable experience! Although my youngest son, who is nearly 3, wasn’t able to ride (which I completely understand), they did offer a partial refund for him but, I never received it. The breakfast was tasty, though it did feel a bit rushed. The pyramids themselves were spectacular, and our tour guide and driver were incredibly helpful throughout the day.”

Review of a Teotihuacan balloon flight from Mexico City with cave breakfast, pyramid visit, tastings, transport, tips, and honest value advice.

“The balloon ride itself was pure magic! We had a great pilot that took us right over the temple of the sun. The entire ride was smooth sailing from takeoff through to landing. Much like other reviewers, the multiple stops during the day really did end up taking a toll on the mood of the entire group. Our trip coordinator didn't do a great job of communicating with the driver and he got lost a couple of times (I don't think this was his fault, btw - it was definitely because of poor communication between the coordinator and him). Overall I definitely still recommend this experience but be sure to…”

5.Balloon Flight with Breakfast in a Natural Cave and Transportation from CDMX

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,206 reviews · 3 to 6 hours (approx.) · from $138

Review of a Teotihuacan balloon flight from Mexico City with sunrise views, cave breakfast, mezcal tasting, transport, and practical tips.

“The air balloon ride was great. The breakfast in the cave was great. However, I was told to figure out transportation on my own. Even after purchasing the package including transportation. The night before our scheduled flight, I received a text basically saying good luck getting here. I asked about the transportation I bought and the employee said WE ARE FULL. I had to buy an Uber for an hour drive to the sight and was not reimbursed. No apology, no reimbursement, nada. I would choose another company next time, plenty to choose from.”
