Had a great experience on this amazing hot air balloon tour. Everything is well organised and we were picked up from the hotel promptly and everything went smoothly. The hot air balloon ride was stunning! Cannot be missed if you’re travelling to Mexico City. It also included a hearty breakfast in a natural cave, the portions were large and lots of free coffee and snacks available throughout the experience. Absolutely 100% recommend! We had a great tour guide called Carlos who made everything extra special. Not to be missed!

The hot air balloon experience itself was great, but the photo package was a disappointing experience. We paid MX$800 for the photos and were told they would be sent through a link within a few hours. Several days have passed, and we still haven’t received anything. We’ve also tried reaching out through their official WhatsApp number three times, but our messages have been ignored. If you decide to purchase the photo package, I recommend asking them to send you the photos before you leave. Otherwise, you risk paying for something you may never receive.

Amazing experience, would recommend Carlos took well care of our group. Pick up was on time, activity well managed. Loved the hot air ballon ride it’s truly magic. Only thing I was not into is more the end of the excursion which is a bit of a tourist trap with the mezcal tasting cause it’s actually a store they bring you in.
The entire experience was worth every penny! I loved the hot air balloon and learning about the Obsidian afterwards. The tour guide Carlos was amazing!
This experience was great. Everyone worked out for our experience and I’m grateful for their work. I enjoyed learning about the culture with the mezcal tasting at the end. Plus the food was amazing
Great experience!! 10/10 recommend. Def not as scary as it sounds
