Teotihuacán Private Hot Air Balloon Flight

  • 20 reviews | 304 travellers
    Amazing experience for my family. This was our first time on a hot air balloon and it exceeded our expectations. We got there before sunrise and the view of the valley and pyramids during sunrise is awesome to behold. We went for the private tour option and the organizer arranged a private car pickup from hotel, completed the balloon ride, drove us to a breakfast buffet, got us to the Pyramid complex, and dropped us back to the hotel

Teotihuacán Private Hot Air Balloon Flight

Meet your guide at the indicated time at the Angel of Independence monument (Ángel de la Independencia) in the heart of Mexico City. From there, you'll be taken by car or minibus to the takeoff area. Ready to experience one of the most exciting days of your life? While you wait for your hot air balloon to be prepared, enjoy a coffee to build your energy for your flight over one of Mexico's most famous archaeological sites.

Climb aboard your hot air balloon accompanied by an expert qualified pilot who will inform you of key safety procedures so you'll enjoy the hot air balloon experience as much as possible.

You'll be able to fly over the Teotihuacán Valley during 45 minutes or an hour, taking in the spectacular views over the archaeological site with a soundtrack of romantic music. The Avenue of the Dead, the Temple of Quetzalcoatl, the Pyramid of the Moon... you'll have ancient Mexico at your feet!

For the finishing touch upon landing, you'll be handed a glass of sparkling wine to toast to an unforgettable experience, as well as enjoy a delicious buffet breakfast. What's more, you'll be presented with a certificate of your flight experience - the perfect souvenir!

Back on solid ground, you'll have two hours of free time to explore Teotihuacán on foot. You'll then be returned to Mexico City after a total of 8 hours.
