Teotihuacan Private Tour

Our private tour is the perfect option if you want to explore Teotihuacan at your leisure and have a guide on hand. There won’t be anybody else in the group apart from your partner, friends or family.

The Teotihuacan archaeological site is a must-see on any trip to Mexico. Pyramids, temples, history and unsolved mysteries are waiting to be discovered. The size and magnificence of this site will leave you lost for words! The name Teotihuacan is said to mean ‘birthplace of the Gods’ because the Aztecs believed that the Gods created the universe at that site. It has become one of the most visited places in Mexico, and as your private guide explains its history, you’ll be sure to understand why.

You’ll be mesmerised by this incredible site! Did you know that historians and archaeologists are still unsure about which civilisation created this impressive city?
