HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOUR!
Experience was amazing! Balloon flight was a great experience in the morning. Breakfast at La Gruta was also great. But my experience at Teotihuacán was the highlight for me. Our guide Itza did a great job at explaining the history of the ruins. I learned a lot about the culture. It was a very friendly environment. Highly recommend this tour!
via Tripadvisor
Experience
My experience was truly amazing! I took a long time looking through different options before making a reservation because I really wanted to make sure I chose the right one, and I’m so glad I did. Itza made us feel very safe and comfortable throughout the entire experience, and our hot air balloon pilot was amazing as well. My little brother has a disability, and I was especially appreciative of how welcoming and accommodating everyone was. They never made us feel like his disability would limit him from being part of the experience, which meant so much to our family. I would definitely recommend them!

Amazing experience but some downsides
Amazing experience flying over the pyramids just after sunrise. We had a terrific time and Aerostat is very professional. We were so happy with the transportation too! A few things to consider though, we were not the highest of all which was a bit disappointing. Unfortunately, we saw neighbouring balloons go higher which we would have liked. Don’t spend all your time making photos because they’re extremely expensive. They don’t tell you beforehand so it’s good to know (€60 for all photos, excluding drone shots). The cave breakfast is okay at best, definitely not a good Mexican breakfast but the cave makes up for it! So have to sit with the group, rather we would have liked to sit with each other and not the rest. At the end, something terrible happened. The driver ran over a dog and kept on driving. We were all very shocked and it took away the glamour of the flight. No communication afterwards. Disappointing..
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the balloon flight, our transportation service, and especially the professionalism of the Aerostat team. Regarding the altitude of the flight, hot air balloons do not follow identical paths or altitudes. Each pilot continuously evaluates wind direction, speed and surrounding traffic, always prioritizing a safe and enjoyable flight. For this reason, neighboring balloons may sometimes fly higher or lower at different moments. We also appreciate your comments regarding the photography service and breakfast, as this feedback helps us review the experience provided by our partners. Most importantly, we would like to clarify what happened with the dog, as we completely understand how upsetting it must have been to witness. After the incident, our pilot and another member of our staff stayed behind to speak directly with the dog’s owners and helped arrange transportation so the dog could receive medical attention. The situation was not ignored, even though we understand that this follow-up may not have been visible or communicated clearly to the passengers who continued with the tour. We sincerely regret that this unfortunate event affected the end of what had otherwise been a wonderful experience. Animal welfare matters to us, and our team did take immediate action to assist the owners and the dog. Thank you again for recognizing Aerostat as a professional company and for sharing both the positive aspects and the areas where we can improve.

Why this scores 84
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City cost?
+
Prices start at $2199 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mexico City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mexico City is not rushed.
Is Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 814 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 5. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City?
+
Around 285 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mexico City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mexico City and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Balloon Flight+Gruta brekfast+Teotihuacan Tour from Mexico City start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mexico City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Mexico City?
+
On Outty we rank every Mexico City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Frida Kahlo VIP [Museum Tickets Included] Walk, Markets & Churros, Local Foodie Adventure CDMX: Tacos & more with Sherpa Food Tours, Mexico City Historical Centre Food Tour with 7 Tastings & Drinks. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Mexico City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Mexico City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
