Overview

What makes this experience special is to start the day in Teotihuacán witnessing one of the most magical moments in the valley: the inflation and takeoff of hot air balloons at dawn. Many people dream of experiencing the atmosphere of ballooning, but not necessarily flying; this experience allows to enjoy that spectacle from the ground while the sky is filled with colors over the pyramids.

Then you will explore the ancient City of Gods walking along the Causeway of the Dead and admiring the imposing Pyramid of the Sun and the majestic Pyramid of the Moon.

The tour is completed with traditional breakfast, a demonstration of obsidian and maguey, and a visit to the historic Basilica of Guadeloupe, creating a unique cultural experience in a single day.
