Overview

Live Teotihuacan from the sky and also from its traditions. Start with a hot air balloon flight at sunrise over the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon and enjoy breakfast in a traditional cave.

What makes this experience special is that you will be able to visit the home of a family of artisans from Teotihuacán, learn about their craft, and watch the artisan work the obsidian in front of you. If you choose the guided tour option, you will also learn about the history and architecture of the Archaeological Zone accompanied by a guide. With round-trip transportation from accommodations within 12 km of the Zócalo of Mexico City, this experience combines adventure, gastronomy, history, and a close look at a tradition that remains alive in Teotihuacán.

During some seasons we incorporate special cultural activities related to Mexican celebrations. We can also prepare a special detail for those celebrating an important occasion, with prior notice when booking.
