8 verified traveler reviews for Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco. Ratings and reviews provided by Viator and Tripadvisor.
Clarity is lacking in the actual itinerary, although good service and good price.
We started badly because the time the start is published (09:00) was not, so when they call us to say they are on their way to pick us up, we had to run to reach the meeting point, they should specify that information well, since the team goes to one hour and on the page is to another. Once already in the van, we were very comfortable and both the driver and the guide are very friendly and collaborative, we were very comfortable; about the locations: Tlatelolco is something very short and punctual, it's okay. - The obsidian and liquor tasting workshop part is an interesting explanation for commercial purposes. - Teotihuacán went with another guide and I feel it was very short and a bit to the races, only a little more than 1 hour when in the itinerary it is 2 hours and 30 minutes. - Basilica of Guadalupe we returned with the guide and it was perhaps the most complete part. In short, it is a good experience, it is very well priced compared to other companies, the van, the driver and the guide (when it was) very well, great human team, it is only improve or be clear with the start time since it is not nice to run and fulfill the time in Teotihuacan, which is the main thing, would be fulfilled what is promised and therefore would be 5 stars.

Definitely a Must See
Very Interesting. The tour guide was excellent is sharing information and her experiences in Teotihuacan. Seeing the temples up close and being able to climb the Moon Temple is a definite must. The views from the top are spectacular. The Basilica of Guadalupe was impressive. The history around St. Guadalupe and the churches is important to understand how religion plays a major role in Mexico. This tour was great for learning more about the Mexican culture. Highly recommend.

It was a great value for...
It was a great value for the money. The guide at the Pyramids, Susanna was terrific. Also Alet was an amazing guide at the Guadalupe church. Don't forget to tip your guides. They work very hard.

Perfect.
We booked this tour from Mexico City and did not regret it. First of all, of course we were the only customers of this title, the company did not attempt to move it or cancel it which is a huge positive because, just Teotihucan, the entrances to the site and the private speaker guide assigned to us would have cost us more than the entire tour if we had gone there on our own. In other words, the company probably lost money that day. The three tours are particularly interesting and allow to discover some parts of the history of Mexico little known to foreigners like us. Our guide Vanessa was attentive and very informative throughout the day and especially she is a professional guide, so she knew her subject at her fingertips. Andrés our driver had a smooth and pleasant ride, anticipating any potential difficulties. The vehicle that was used for the excursion was immaculately clean and at the end of the day Andrés was kind enough to drop us off at our Airbnb rather than at the drop-off point originally scheduled. Moreover, last point to note, although the agency usually wakes up with a restaurant in the surroundings for lunch the latter was not imposed on us. We would like to have lunch in a more typical place and had found an address (a few meters from the planned restaurant), which was no problem. I highly recommend this title for the quality of its organization and the professionalism of the Ballons City team!

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco cost?
+
Prices start at $700 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 Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco 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 Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 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 Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco?
+
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 Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 3. 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 Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco?
+
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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best Tour of Teotihuacan with Basilica of Guadalupe and Tlatelolco 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.
