Great experience overall, from pick up to the balloon flight!
Everything was very smooth and clear throughout the flow of the day. Truly made for a magical experience to start the day in the balloon overseeing the historic site. I only wish we had more time to explore at the pyramids, though we had exactly the amount of time described in the booking. Was a perfect booking to match the amount of time we had in the area.
Awesome, beautiful, well worth it
Pilot was amazing, views were great and the experience unforgettable.
Incredible experience and beautiful view!
Such an amazing experience! Our pilot Alfredo was so fun and safe. Our guide, Isaac, was great as well!
We had an amazing time, everything was smooth, well managed, and we loved our pilot Alfredo and our guide Izack. Definitely worth every cent!
Freezing cold morning. Only 45 minutes in the air. Didn’t go as high as I was expecting. Friendly staff and well run operation.
Such a cool experience! Would recommend to everyone! The guides were friendly and helpful. The views were absolutely amazing 🤩
This was a great experience!!! Laura was very hospitable and Elias, the person controlling the hot air balloon, was great!!! Griselda, their resident dog, also provides excellent customer service!!!! Would definitely recommend
The tour was amazing and super fun; it was a little bit chilly, so bring a jacket, but overall the views were amazing and great for groups.
Great experience. Smooth ride. Gorgeous view. Friendly staff. Easy pickup and organization. Worth it!
Yes you have to get up insanely early in the morning, but this is one time it's worth it!
Overall wonderful experience! Everything was well organized and the views were amazing!

Amazing organised trip with great staff. Highly recommend. Wear several layers!
Good and worth to join, I recommend all of you to join this incredible event.
Nice experience and it’s worth to have it on the trip
The entire experience was smooth and well organized. Pickup at our hotel in Roma Norte with a 1 hour drive. The hot air balloon views were scenic and gorgeous. The photo and drone/video package is available for purchase. Champagne at the end was a great touch. Everyone we interacted with was amazing, knowledgeable, and friendly. Would definitely recommend this experience
This was an amazing experience! The team was extremely professional, organized, and kind. Would recommend to everyone visiting Mexico City!
We had a great time with Tlatoani Tours on the hot air balloon ride! Very organized, prompt pickup, and detailed instructions. Views were amazing. Highly recommend!
I loved every moment! Truly an amazing experience. Se lo recomiendo a todos! Elsa was a fantastic tour guide. Jorge was a great driver and special shout out to Martin, for managing the hot air balloon so well! Te lo prometo, no te arrepentirás!
Great experience! Beautiful day
Perfect experience. All the people were nice, friendly, and knowledgeable
Easy pick up from hotel. Food communication, food value
Very organised tour from start to finish - a smooth pick-up from the hotel & details all provided in advance so you had no concerns. Our pilot Mauricio was friendly, attentive and explained the process. Jafet our guide was welcoming throughout the day too!! ☺️
Very timely from start to finish, from pick up to the flight it was all brilliant. All the staff were lovely and super kind!
Followed itinerary, were responsive, and take off and landing were smooth. Would recommend booking with them.
It was very fun and worth the money and the early wake up. Our pilot Alfredo was the best in the business and it was smooth sailing from take off to the softest landing. It was beautiful scenery from all angles of the pyramids, mountains, sunrise and even the tip of the volcano. Our guide was extremely nice, our group was small and enjoyable and the ride was about 30-40 minutes long.
Incredible experience! 1000 out of 10
Great service every leg of the way!
It was fun and great, mauricio and the stuff was so great!
Great experience! We had a blast and Mauricio our pilot was the best
Cool experience! Well worth the early wake up. Beautiful way to start the day!
We went for our friends birthday excursion. Very easy to use. Communication was great leading up to trip. Guide we’re friendly and helpful. The ballon ride was smooth with great views. Definitely recommend.
Wish the flight was a bit longer but overall great flight!
It was great! Well organised.
Amazing experience! Shuttle pick up was easy, the meeting location had a fun vibe with cute photo spots and coffee, and the balloon ride was peaceful and beautiful.
10 out of 10 everything was excellent
The balloon ride was beautiful captain Alfredo was great! Our tour guide was so sweet. The basket was not overcrowded and the length of the balloon ride was perfect! Definitely recommend !
I had a delightful time flying with Tlatoani Tours!
The experience was amazing! From the pick up at our hotel to the waiting and balloon experience.
Great experience had a blast.
Amazing experience! From start to fish it was lovely. The crew/puppet were very knowledgeable and efficient. I felt safe and it was a beautiful tour.
Great experience! Our guide Laura was personable and enthusiastic. The cave breakfast was tasty, and the tour of the pyramids was the right amount of time. The balloon basket felt very tight with six people; you could barely move; five should be the absolute max. The ride back into the city was also excruciatingly long…with traffic and other drop-offs scattered throughout the city, it was every bit of 3 hours after the tour concluded.
Barbra was awesome! The balloon ride was out of this world. Loved that they had options to pick you up vs. meeting somewhere else.
Absolutely worth the 3am wake-up! Sunrise over the Teotihuacan pyramids was truly an unforgettable experience. The entire staff, our driver Ivan, guide Fernanda, hot air balloon operator, David, and the crew were all so knowledgeable, professional and ensured all aspects of the trip ran smoothly and that participants were having an enjoyable time. If I'm back in CDMX, I'd do it all over again!
Absolutely an incredible experience. The staff was amazing, knowledgeable & friendly. The views of the sunrise, mountains & pyramids was absolutely breathtaking from up there. I highly recommend this experience!!
Loved every moment ❤️ everyone was so nice and helpful and I would highly recommend to others. The experience of a Ballon ride was smooth and fun, we got so many pictures of all the other balloons and the really good photos of the pyramids
