Hot air balloon brilliant but do not book through Viator - there was no knowledge of our booking!
Warning - Do not book this through Viator. We had booked a 6am flight and were making our own way there with an Uber. We had left the hotel at 4:30am to enjoy a sunrise experience. When we arrived at the meeting point we were told no flight had been booked in our name. We were a group of seven, travelling with children. This was our last day in Mexico City. Imagine the distress, disappointment and upset. A rep from another company was called who then phoned around trying to get us on a balloon flight. We were offered a flight at 8am with another balloon provider. However that would not have got us back in time to Mexico City. A a flight was eventually found at 6:45am and we were rushed over to a different provider and put straight into a balloon. We missed all the photo opportunities that the other families got for the hour before and and also missed breakfast as we had to rush back. Viator have refused any liability for the stress and missed breakfast. This is the second time I have booked through Viator and the second time my booking has not been acknowledged. Previously in February 2019 I booked a city tour with my children. We waited over an hour in the hotel reception, phoned numerous times to be told that despite booking to be picked up from our hotel, they did not actually offer that service. I did not receive any refund then either. Please do not waste your precious time and money with this company. The balloon flight itself is magical and I highly recommend. I have taken balloon flights in Europe and this far excelled any of them. Just remember to book direct with the companies themselves.
Response from the operator: Estimada Luisa Lamentamos profundamente la experiencia que tuvo y la angustia que esto le generó. Entendemos la importancia de este tipo de actividades, especialmente cuando viaja con niños y tiene expectativas altas para una ocasión especial como esta. Queremos aclarar que, aunque Viator es una plataforma de terceros con la que trabajamos, en ocasiones pueden ocurrir problemas en la comunicación de reservas. Como empresa, siempre buscamos que cada cliente tenga una experiencia excepcional, y lamentamos sinceramente que no haya sido así en su caso. Nos alegra saber que finalmente pudo disfrutar de un vuelo en globo, pero entendemos que la experiencia inicial no cumplió con sus expectativas. Le aseguramos que hemos tomado medidas para evitar que esto vuelva a suceder, incluyendo la revisión de los procesos con nuestras plataformas de reservas para garantizar que cada cliente reciba una confirmación adecuada y una atención personalizada. Si nos da la oportunidad de atenderle directamente en el futuro, estamos seguros de que podrá vivir la experiencia completa tal y como la planeó. Valoramos sus comentarios y agradecemos que se haya tomado el tiempo para compartirlos, ya que nos ayudan a mejorar continuamente. Por favor, no dude en contactarnos directamente si desea discutir este asunto más a fondo o si podemos hacer algo por usted. Atentamente, Isaaya tours and Balloons/Guias de turismo Mx

Why this scores 53
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast cost?
+
Prices start at $2799 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 Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 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 Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast?
+
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 Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast?
+
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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sunrise Balloon Flight + Cave Breakfast 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.
