Unforgettable experience with the Que Loco Tours team!
The balloon ride in Teotihuacan was a fascinating experience! We start the adventure from Mexico City. We arrived at the balloon port and began the flight, the experience of rising above the ancient pyramids of the sun and moon in Teotihuacan is wonderful! The team showed unique professionalism, guaranteeing our safety at all times. During the flight they gave us a toast, I think it is one of the experiences that we will never forget. In the end, they took us to a Buffet restaurant with delicious food. Thanks to the entire Que Loco Tours team!
Response from the operator: Hola! Nos alegra mucho escuchar que tuvo una buena experiencia en el vuelo el globo en Teotihuacan. Nos encanta ser su anfitrión en esta experiencia. Estamos para servirle en cualquier otra ocasión!

Fantastic - highly recommend!
I went on two tours with Que Loco: a day trip to Teotihuacan and an overnight to La Malinche. I cannot recommend Que Loco enough. Their guides were so accommodating and knowledge. I’ll definitely be using them again!
Response from the operator: Hello Sam! We really appreciate your time to write this review. We're so happy you enjoy The Malinche summit and the balloon ride with us. It's our pleasure to serve customers like you! Thanks again, and we hope to make your next visit just as positive. Have an amazing day!

Amazing Views. Highly recommend
My 4 friends and I got up early and took an Uber to the tour office to arrive by 6:20. It took us about an hour from Polanco. While our flight did not actually go up until 6:45-6:50, the hour long flight was beautiful and very well organized. The tour was safe and professional and the views were incredible. I'd highly recommend this hot air balloon adventure over Teotihuacan to anyone who is considering
Response from the operator: Hello Tyler! Thank you for such a kind comment. You're right, the hot air balloon ride is amazing. It was a honor to be your host on this balloon ride. I hope you and your friends enjoy Mexico :)

Amazing tour
One of the best experiences ever. My girlfriend and I enjoyed all the trip from Mexico City to the balloons, the staff is very friendly. From the reservation process to the end, Que Loco Tours was an amazing agency. The pyramids are just wonderful, I wish to have more time to be in Mexico. Wonderful country
Response from the operator: Thanks for your review Thomas. We are glad you enjoyed it

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $2498 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 Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Mexico City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 6. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour?
+
Around 4 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacan Tour 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.
