Entertaining and fascinating tour
George_K, Mar 2023
Our guide Luis was knowledgable, patient, and fluent, and the tour had a great mix of experiences. Riding bikes through the area surrounding the pyramids gave us a good sense of the scale of the ancient city, as well as a chance to see some sights that would not be on a typical itinerary.
Great tour!
Scott_O, Mar 2023
Wonderful guides! We had a great time. I would highly recommend using this company. They were polite and very knowledgeable.
Knowledgeable and Friendly
leslie_l, Mar 2023
Miguel was very knowledgeable and because he is indigenous, was able to share special insights into native philosophy and customs. He was easy to understand and welcomed any and all questions. Our driverGuillermo was very patient , skilled and figired out how to get us out of a protest jam.
Totally worth it!
Dawn_G, Mar 2023
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience! Our driver, Giovanni, was prompt, courteous and a competent driver. Our tour guide, Miguel, was knowledgeable and did a great job answering all of our questions. The food that was included was very typical food and much better than anticipated. We can totally recommend this tour!
Such a great excursion
Dawn_G, Mar 2023
Our driver, Giovanni picked us up promptly and other travelers- dodging crazy traffic and still getting us to the pyramids at a great time. Our tour guide, Miguel was great and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The restaurant who provided us food as part of our package was better than expected and we highly recommend the experience!!
A must while in Mexico!
Barbara_C, Mar 2023
An absolute must and with this tour group! We had such a great time and our tour guides were the best! Don Ramon and Javier shared so much knowledge and everyone else with the company was just so kind and generous, even down to the transportation. I highly recommend this company and encourage everyone to visit the pyramids. Beyond beautiful! My husband and I were so impressed with everything and we are happy we booked this.
Great way to spend the day with this historical site.
Maria_D, Feb 2023
The actual site and the museum. Tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. Some other stops might not be necessary.
Very well done!
Svetlana_U, Feb 2023
Very well organized. Timely pickup at the hotel. Smooth ride to the site and from the site back to the hotel by a helpful and friendly driver. Knowledgeable and friendly tour guide Ramon! I also enjoyed a mini happy hour at the place that processes obsidian with a very entertaining host, whose name I am sorry I forgot.
Overall great experience and excellent service
Martha_E, Feb 2023
This was a really good tour. Highly recommend, especially participating in the temazcal. I do recommend that you know your physical limitations for the bike ride part of this. I tried and gave up half way through. It was just too fast paced for me. I then took advantage of the van. They drive you by the bike riders to keep up with group and see the same sights and take pics as well. The pyramids are absolutely breathtaking. They are not open to the public anymore to climb because they're trying to preserve structures. Disappointing but totally understandable. The temazcal was an unforgettable experience. If you do this make sure to hydrate and familiarize yourself with it so that you can fully enjoy it. It is intense but they walk you through it and make the experience comfortable. They provided snacks and went to an obsidian workshop where we had pulque, tequila, mezcal, with tasting of salsa and jam. We bought beautiful hand carved obsidian pieces in their shop. Great part is they pick you up it was very convenient.
From somebody who doesn’t love yours: great tour!
Michael_M, Feb 2023
Ramón was an excellent, informed, and very funny guide. He took us through the whole archeological site, peppering in personal insights and stories along with genuinely interesting historical and anthropological information. He then led us in a bike ride around the site, with a stop at and into a cave where he gave us a taste of the mythology of the times. Finally he led us to an obsidian workshop where we learned much about the ancient crafting material. Would fully recommend for those on the fence.

Dan_D, Feb 2023
Very good and courteous tour vehicle driver that picked up and returned us to our hotel. Our tour guide was excellent and helpful. Please note that bicycle ride is not inside the Teotihuacan pyramid areas as only walking is allowed. Lunch buffet was very nice with many food selections to choose from. Live music provided with Mexican singers.

Best trip to Teotihuacan EVER!
Hudson_T, Jan 2023
Our guide, Eloy, was so passionate and knowledgeable about the history of Teotihuacan. I have studied MesoAmerican history for years and still came away with increased knowledge.

Excellent day out!
Emma_M, Jan 2023
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and it was obvious that he has a passion for the history of the pyramid sites. He spoke perfectly in English and overall his enthusiasm added to the enjoyment of our experience. Transport between sites (I was walking) was well organised, but a tiny part of me wished I had cycled as it isn’t very far between sites.
The passion my Guide, Ana...
Alejandro_M, Dec 2022
The passion my Guide, Ana expressed all during my tour as well as the details about these ancient ruins.
Perfect
Bec_A, Dec 2022
All was perfect Our guide Eloy was really Nice and interesting He provide hat for the sun, water and thé lunch was good too
A full and fun tour!
Linda_S, Dec 2022
Definitely recommend this tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. On top of seeing the Sun and Moon pyramids, we also visited an obsidian artist (which was amazing) and caves which we otherwise wouldn't have known to go to. Amount of walking was quite manageable. Please note though, the day starts early and we didn't have lunch until ~1:30 pm so highly recommend eating a super filling breakfast and/or packing a snack!

Mitch_T, Nov 2022
Great day trip! The staff were excellent, helpful, fun, and very nice. The bike tour was fun and not too difficult.
Very memorable tour guide for the pyramids!
Jill_W, Oct 2022
The best part of seeing the pyramids was because of our tour guide, Eloy! Eloy made our experience so memorable because of his wealth of knowledge. He gave us so much interesting information in a way that we wanted to listen to him. He was patient, answered all questions and had a great sense of humor!!! Eloy is an asset to Viator!!!!! Thank you, Jill and John Welton
Awesome.
