    Such an amazing tour, 100% recommended

    Excellent and safe, high-quality tour

    It is something wonderful to be able to see the sunrise in the air; without a doubt, flying in a hot air balloon is an experience that one must do at least once in a lifetime. This tour is very worth it, I recommend Mictlán tours to you, the whole team is professional and friendly, we felt safe at all times, thank you Mictlán tours!

    A sunrise over Teotihuacán I won't forget.

    We booked the balloon flight with transportation and breakfast in the cave, and it was better than we expected. They picked us up at 6 a.m. at the Angel of Independence in an air-conditioned van, and the drive to the Teotihuacán Valley was comfortable and on time. The sunrise flight was the best part. Watching the sun come up over the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon from the air is hard to put into words. José, our pilot, was very friendly the whole time, and our landing was quite smooth. Afterwards we had breakfast in the natural cave. The food wasn't bad. Then we visited the obsidian workshop, which had some really beautiful pieces. We had free time at the archaeological site, with admission included, and Ithamar guided us in quite fluent English.

    Memorable birthday

    We booked a hot air balloon ride over Teotihuacan to celebrate my birthday and it exceeded my expectations from start to finish. The entire experience was seamless—from the pickup and check-in process to the balloon flight itself and everything afterward. Our guide, Ithamar is the best! One of the highlights was the special birthday sign they held up as we lifted off, which made the moment feel incredibly personal and memorable. The views of the pyramids at sunrise were absolutely breathtaking, and the crew was professional, organized, and attentive throughout the experience. Every detail was handled well, and the entire team made us feel taken care of from beginning to end. It was a truly memorable way to celebrate my birthday

    Balloon Flight with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.

    How much does Balloon Flight with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva cost?

    +

    Prices start at $3,100 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 with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Balloon Flight with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva?

    +

    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 with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Balloon Flight with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva?

    +

    Around 3 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Balloon Flight with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva 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.

    What is included in Balloon Flight with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; Breakfast; Private transportation; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Entrance fees. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    +

    Is Balloon Flight with Pick-up plus Breakfast in Cueva wheelchair or stroller accessible?
