About the tour
Your magical morning begins at the take-off zone, where you will receive a short safety briefing as the sky starts to glow with the first light of dawn. Prepare your camera, admire the inflating balloons, and then ascend on a breathtaking hot air balloon flight over the ancient city. From above, marvel at the Pyramid of the Sun, the Pyramid of the Moon, and the Avenue of the Dead, all illuminated by golden sunrise tones. This unique aerial perspective offers a once-in-a-lifetime connection with one of the most important archaeological sites in the world.
After landing, enjoy a sparkling wine toast to celebrate this unforgettable experience and receive a commemorative flight certificate. You will also have the opportunity to purchase professional photos and enjoy some free time to explore or have breakfast at a nearby restaurant. Guests who came with transportation will later relax on board as they return to Mexico City—unless continuing the adventure with the full cultural experience.
For those who opt to extend their journey, the day continues with a guided tour of Teotihuacan, exploring its temples, plazas, and imposing pyramids on foot. Learn about the history, cosmology, and architectural achievements of this ancient civilization, visit a local obsidian workshop, enjoy a tequila tasting, and discover the traditional flavors of Mexican cuisine at a local restaurant (meal at your own expense). The experience then continues at the Basilica of Guadalupe, one of the most significant pilgrimage sites in the world. Your guide will reveal the spiritual and historical importance of this sacred complex as you visit the Old Basilica, the New Basilica, and its surrounding chapels—an inspiring journey into Mexico’s deep cultural roots.
Whether you simply want to soar over Teotihuacan at sunrise, enjoy a seamless round-trip experience, or immerse yourself fully in Mexico’s history and spirituality, this adventure offers the perfect blend of excitement, culture, and wonder—an unforgettable day from beginning to end.
