Mar was amazing, food delicious
Everyone was so lovely and accommodating. Mar, our guide helped us every step of the way. Super smooth landing too.
Mar was lovely! This experience was one to remember!!
Amazing experience, very smooth
Mar was lovely, such a great day!
Very nice and informative great at translating instructions and historical facts
Really great experience! Our tour guide was Alejandra and she was so helpful, kind and explained each step of the multi-step experience. I’d highly recommend
It sure was worth it. Our tour guide Alejandra was very charming and knowledgeable, or driver. Lalo was super sweet and very chatty. Both of them made us feel welcome. Alejandra was too kind by waiting for people who were running late, if I would’ve been in charge of the tour, I would’ve left them. My only thing would be to make sure to warn the tourist about the possibility of getting stuck inside the cemetery. Once you’re in there, there’s no control or how many people go in and it gets overwhelmingly crowded. But the trip was absolutely everything it promised to be. Once in a lifetime experience.
The 3-part tour was an early start off to the day with breathtaking views of the valley and Pyramids. The Balloon Captain made the flight top class rotating the balloon so all had plenty of opportunities to take pictures of the pyramids with different heights and angles. Our tour guide was bubbly, knowledgeable, and very friendly. Breakfast was delicious with breads, fruits, and 1 choice of a main. Great experience!
Great experience, highly recommend! Smooth flight with amazing views, with gorgeous golden hour sun
Had a wonderful morning with Marv our guide and really smooth fun flight on the balloon. Would recommend to friends
Mar was a lovely guide, super friendly. The ride was beautiful and it felt very safe.
It was a great experience and excellent care by the guides and hosts.
Mar was a wonderful guide, very enthusiastic and helpful! Whole trip was very smooth.
Our experience with Mar valle was good and The drone shoots where cool. Lovely crew our captain and the ballons was a an amazing experience
The entire trip was well-designed, and the tour guides were very supportive. They also provided prompt replies whenever you needed assistance during the trip.
The entire experience was really smooth- Mar was our guide and she did great! I loved the ride and our group was very small which felt a bit more private. I would def book with them again! :)
it was very great our guide did amazing explaining everything. the food was great and mar was very very sweet
The host or organizer decided to message me and let me know that they are refunding our tickets due to high winds. To be specific, they decided there was a chance of high winds. At the time there was no indication that there was high winds whatsoever, furthermore when we woke up because we were already planning on waking up at that time because the organizer decided to message us only a couple of hours maybe four or five before the actual trip was supposed to be there was indeed very little wind. I took a screenshot of this and sent it to the organizer to request, they still went through with the trip and they decided not to . what was very unfortunate about this is that rebooking a comparable event on a busy weekend like this one was not possible whatsoever. Thanks to this host. Our trip to Mexico to do something we have always wanted to do in our lives… Ruined.
Alejandra and Louis with Cielo Azteca were wonderful. The entire experience was worth it!
Luis and alejandra were amazing to us, took us to the best places, the hot air balloon ride was exquisite and the breakfast in the cave was magnificent. The mezcal tasting after was a cherry on top and the walk along the pyramids helped us burn those calories! Highly recommend them
Amazing time with Alejandra and Luis! The pickup and drive out was prompt, and we were some of the first balloons in the air. We especially enjoyed the delicious breakfast in the cave afterwards! Highly recommend this experience.
Amazing feeling being up in the clouds, with great views of the pyramids. Our guide Mar was great throughout.
Such an amazing experience!!! Mar was absolutely amazing every step of the way. Very informative and made us feel very welcome. Would absolutely recommend and will book again!
Canceled tour and will not answer messages on refund. I understand weather can change but at least get in contact with your customers
Amazing experience that is a must do for your visit to Mexico City! Our guide Alejandra was wonderful and helpful in learning about the temples. Our driver Luis was ready to pick us up from each stop on time and kept our bags safe. The air balloon ride was unbelievable, 10/10. Would 100% recommend!
Really lovely balloon ride, felt totally safe and well taken care of by the staff and crew! Alexandra was my guide and she was very lively and fun, Louis my driver was amazing also!
Great experience! The pickup was perfectly on time. Very well taken care of. Alejandra our guide was great and Luis our driver was great as well.
Check in for the hot air balloons was super easy with our host Mar and her supporting team, and they had refreshments available while we waited to leave to the take-off site. The hot air balloon ride itself was so cool, and our pilot Abraham was very kind, he even turned our balloon at one point to get the pyramids in the background of pictures we were taking. The whole experience is very efficient, 10/10 would recommend :)
Mar was a great host, she was very helpful since the moment we arrived. The waiting area included coffee and restrooms were clean. Transportation was quick and it was a smooth balloon ride, we got awesome pictures and video. Highly recommended.
Well-organized and a great experience! Communication beforehand was excellent, and the pickup was right on time. Everything went smoothly, and the balloon ride was amazing!
We booked the hot air balloon over Teotihuacan and it included breakfast and extras. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and the balloons didn't fly, which was the main reason we booked. I realize balloon rides are weather dependent, but it's worth going in prepared for that possibility. To their credit, the company handled the cancellation fairly. They offered a 60% refund since we continued with the rest of the tour, or 80% if we left. The catch is that leaving means getting your own ride back, and I'm not sure you can easily get an Uber that far outside the city. We had plans later in the day and only wanted the balloon, but ended up staying with the group. That's the other thing to know: if you choose pickup, you'll be in a van with about 12 other people, and that becomes your group for the day. If plans change, you go along with the group whether you want to or not, or figure out your own transportation back. The rest of the day: • Cave breakfast: Unique setting, but the listing mentioned dancing and there were no performers. • Liquor stop: A short talk on Mexican spirits, mostly to encourage gift shop purchases. • Pyramids: Small extra fee and absolutely worth it if you're already out there. However, you only get about an hour, which isn't much time to explore the pyramids and browse the vendors. Overall, a good way to see the area if the balloons fly. If they don't, be ready to spend the full day with the group or arrange your own transportation back.
It was an amazing experience I would definitely recommend it! Driver Luis was very punctual with the pick up and Alejandra our tour guide was the best!
Amazing experience! Driver Luis was punctual with pickup time and everything ran smooth and on schedule with our guide Alejandra. Do not miss out on this experience. 100% worth it.
The tour guide is super nice! We had an amazing time. Fun ride! Ballon was really cool and the scene is great
I would say it was worth the money 100% recommend to do once in your life. It’s a little packed but the views make up for it. The guiders have been nothing but nice and helpful especially Mar. Would do it again!!!
Wonderful experience, all thanks to our guide, Mar Valle. Highly recommend buying the photos by Haz
Mar was amazing! She was very welcoming and outgoing, made the trip so much fun! Haz took some amazing drone shots!!
Amazing experience. Very friendly staff! Hazel was an awesome photographer.
Cielo Azteca was one of the best memories of this year’s trip to Mexico City. The gentleman Eduardo G. went above and beyond to help me find my wallet which I missed placed. I had given up hope finding it and the next day he reached out and found it with everything still inside. He back tracked all of the days events and he even brought it to my location the following day. He went to the take off location, landing location, where we stopped to eat and walk the pyramids. Grateful for all his team’s help. We are planning on returning with more family within the next few months and we are going hot air ballooning again.
This was an amazing experience for my wife, friends and family. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting CDMX!
Great staff, very accommodating and attentive
The experience was a 10/10 great service and hospitality!!!
The staff was great everybody was nice and welcoming
