Overview

The aim of this tour is for you to enjoy the Teotihuacan pyramids while also supporting the local economy and enjoying an authentic, homemade lunch cooked by locals at their home. The tour is designed for your money to stay in the community.

We'll go on public transport to the North Bus station in Mexico City. We'll take a public bus to Teotihuacan and once there, you will be introduced to your local guide who will explain the history of the pyramids.
