Early Morning Teotihuacan Pyramids Tour with a Private Archeologist

When in Mexico city this trip is a must. Not giving it a 5 only because one of the two tour guides called in sick and so we were delayed and our tour poor guide had to present the whole trip himself. But he did a great job. Do the morning tour, less people, no lines and avoid the burning mid-day sun

We did the early morning teotihuacan pyramids tour with Gabriel on Dec. 22. It was a fantastic day. Gabriel in incredibly knowledgeable and made the tour extremely interesting. He was very attentive of guests needs and paced the day so that everyone could feel comfortable. He was able to answer all of my many questions and gave our family an amazing insight into the culture and civilization of Teotihuacan. He provided great information all the way there to the sight so we learned a great deal about Mexico City as well. Thank you so much for a fantastic day. I'd recommend this tour to everyone!

Great concept --- leave early and beat the traffic and the crowds and the heat. Wonderful guide. Disappointing finish with a bad lunch and typical push to sell overpriced stuff to tourists.

Excellent, outstanding Archaeologist made the trip very informative, we thoroughly enjoyed our tour.

Good trip with a good explanation and detail. I will highly recommend this tour. Driver and tour guide were the best!!

I have had some amazing tours via Viator, and saw this particular one had great reviews. It was described as an English speaking tour with an archaeologist. This tour is definitely not 100% English. There was a mixed crowd of English and Spanish speakers, and the guide went confusingly between the two languages saying one sentence in English and then the next in Spanish. It made it pretty hard to follow. It also was much longer than it needed to be as we waited a fairly long amount of time at each pickup location, a gas station stop, and eventually a lunch/pitch stop at a restaurant/mezcal location with a gift shop. I wish I had followed a friends' advice to book a private tour or just book a car to go by yourself. It would save you precious time in Mexico City.

Wonderful tour guide and experience. Be prepared to walk!

For somebody who has never been to Teotihuacan, this tour is a good introduction. The buses are organized and tour guides were very professional and knowledgeable. As someone who is a museum and history geek, the tour did not leave enough time to explore the ruins. I was hoping they would have the option of coming back with the afternoon tour, but that's not the case. In addition, there is a "cultural" stop where you are given a sales pitch for local arts and crafts that costs significantly more than what you can find in Mexico City. Still, it is a good introduction and recommended for first time enthusiasts.

We had such an amazing day.It is a long walk maybe 3-4 miles after it is all over but so worth the experience.

Our guide was super funny and informative. The afternoon trip was nice, although if you are going around September, I suggest you doing the morning one because it often rains in the afternoons in Mexico. Otherwise, amazing!
