A terrific tour with a fun and informed guide.
Seeing Teotihuacan itself was the most amazing thing of the day. Sergio provided a great introduction as we were driving to the temple city and good information as we walked through the area. I do think the tour should provide water for the trip home. We spent a lot of time in the hot sun and my guess is that most of us had drunk all the water we brought ourselves before the end of the long day. Our driver was excellent!
Response from the operator: Dear Costumer Thank you for choosing Interliv Travel, Mexico We are very happy to hear that you had a wonderfull trip to Teotihuacan with our guide Sergio. We will put your consideration about the water for the future costumer. Thanks you so much for your comment. with warm regards from Christina Sørensen

BUYER OF SILVER JEWELLERY AT TEOTIHUACAN BEWARE -ALL FAKE PLATE
The tour began with us being collected from the intercontinental hotel when the tour bus could have collected us from Camino Real Polanco. It was stop start collecting the remaining 10 sight-seers. We waited 20 mins outside a hotel for the last couple. Once we arrived at TEOTIHUACAN our guide CARLOS, pictured, was informative and chatty. We were approached by lots of hawkers and we looked at their wares. One hawker, again pictured with his accomplice, was selling silver jewellery and CARLOS our guide said that the vendor was trustworthy, he made the jewellery at home - a cottage industry and he’d recommended this vendor to his clients and had recommended this guy for over 10 years. Genuine and trustworthy. All his real silver is hallmarked CARLOS told us and he did a magnet test etc. CARLOS our guide said that others hawking silver were selling fake stuff. We bought 2 bracelets for gifts for USD200 using the hawkers card machine he said he’d send a digital receipt. This never materialised. I was the approached 5 mins later by another asker selling same products a lot cheaper annd asked CARLOS our guide why is this chap cheaper? He said that he was selling fake silver and not to worry. However I did worry. I took my silver to be tested by reputable jeweller in Mexico and was told it was cheap silver plate and the hallmarks are illegal. The authorities should crack down on this activity. This is a warning to other tourists like me and of course there is no recourse. I blame CARLOS our guide too for blatantly lying.
Response from the operator: Dear Costumer Thank you so much for your comment. We want to inform you that Carlos is no longer working with us because of your comment. The comments he made was made in a personal matter and not in a compagny matter. we do not tolerate this behavour. How ever it is well known that you should never buy jewellies in the street and expect a good quality. Warm regards from Christina Sørensen

Great visit to shrine of Guadalupe and Pyramids
The visit to the shrine of Guadalupe was quite a lightening and moving. Also the pyramids tour was really impressive and you learn a lot about the history. I was delighted to have, for a second time on the same week, Fernando and Mayra as an our team of driver and tour guides, as they are wonderful to be with, friendly, fun, and very knowledgeable. A great thanks!

More money- zero value
Paid almost double the price of a regular tour in order to have a small group experience. Expected more comfort and additional access to guide. Tour later arriving (30 minutes). Stuffed into the back of a non passenger van with higher seats and lower window - making sightseeing impossible. At Teotihuacan, guide simply said “see you back here in an hour” Ridiculous.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $1690 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 Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 11 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 Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.1/5 across 21 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 Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch?
+
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 Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch?
+
Around 7 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 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Small Group: Teotihuacan Pyramids and Shrine of Guadalupe with Lunch 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.
