Great morning
Great experience, just as advertised. However the breakfast in the cave, although nice, wasn’t all that good. I would’ve skipped had I known. Best to just book the balloon ride and pyramids.

Girls Trip 2026
I did have some reservations as I calling to confirm. I reached out through the number provided by the trip advisor agent and was given the wrong company. After that was sorted out, I was able to communicate with the correct company via what’s app. Take a translation tool with you as the driver spoke little English and I spoke little Spanish. We made it work though. The ride was smooth and comfortable. I especially appreciated the continental breakfast before the flight. The staff and pilot were excellent at explaining safety measures prior to the flight. I enjoyed the experience overall- hot air balloon, caves, breakfast, temples. It is a long day that starts very early. Dress in layers take a light jacket, wear comfortable shoes. Tap is a widely accepted form of payment but you may be charged extra to cover transaction fees.

Worth the Full Experience
It was such a great experience. For the price, it was very much worth it. Because we lived near area of pick up, it was so convenient to have the driver pick us up at the place we stayed. The experience from the time we were picked up (including both driving and events) ended up being more than 6 hours, which I truly didn’t mind. This is just helpful to know for those who plan their days more precisely. Overall, I would recommend, our tour guide was so nice and gave us enough time to explore both the pyramids and the tequila tasting. The breakfast at the cave was also a great experience. The atmosphere was very calm in all scenarios. Our tour group was a good amount of people, not too little and also not overcrowded. Huge thanks!

Why this scores 89
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Balloon flight + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Balloon flight + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan cost?
+
Prices start at $141 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 + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 89 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 2,660 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 + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan?
+
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 + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Balloon flight + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan?
+
Around 931 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Balloon flight + pick up in CDMX + Breakfast in Cave + Teotihuacan 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 Teotihuacan 3 Pyramids Tour + Hotel Pick Up + Lunch at La Gruta, Historic Center Essentials: Mexico City Downtown Walking Tour, PREMIUM Frida Kahlo Museum and Xochimilco (Small Groups). 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.
