Balloons over the ruins. Excellent!
Nice experience over the pyramids

Hot air balloon at sunrise over the pyramids
Awesome experience! Would highly recommend. Our trip included a breakfast buffet which was delicious. Seeing the sunrise, all the other balloons and the pyramids was unreal. Not scary at all, our pilot seemed very competent.

100% recommended
I recommend this flight option if you do not want to waste time with so many people we had a very fluid guide the driver passed to our accommodation and the return gave us the option to go to Basilica of Guadeloupe I recommend this option 100%
via Tripadvisor (translated)
Excellent private tour option
Excellent option if you want a more personalized and private tour the guide very attentive and was very fluid we saw that other balloons carried more than 15 people and saturated transports to us assigned us to a balloon with maximum 6 people super comfortable and the car of 4 people that adds many extra points worth the price

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mexico City.
How much does Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup cost?
+
Prices start at $2850 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 Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup 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 Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup?
+
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 Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup 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 Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup?
+
Around 2 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 Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Flight over Teotihuacan with Hotel Pickup 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.
