5.00Our tour guide was wonderful and gave us lots of interesting Indigenous history and histories of the construction and preservation of each site. While the restaurant lunch at Teotihuacan was lackluster, the sites, the guide, and our tour companions made the day so fun and interesting, I have to give 5 stars.

5.00Maria our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and had first hand experience working in the archeological site of the pyramids. She was able to answer any questions we had and was super friendly and seemed to really love teaching us about the different sites. The tour bus was comfortable and a smooth ride both ways. This was my second time visiting the pyramids and would recommend doing this tour over going on your own.
Must-do trip!

5.00We had a very nice trip with Jesús and Marió and the other cool participants. Marió had a lot of knowledge and it was very interesting what he told us about all the places we visited. We had a lot of fun and there was not a single thing that could have been done better ☺️
Bad Tour, look elsewhere

1.00Do NOT under any circumstances choose this tour company. There are plenty of others offering the same tour that I’m sure are better and offer the promised experience. This one does not. The tour was advertised as ‘hotel pickup’ however that is false, the day before the tour we were instructed to meet at a meeting point that was a 20min taxi from our hotel. Everyone on the tour was collected there and all the other tour guests we spoke to were also annoyed there was no hotel collection / drop off as advertised. The first attraction Tlatelolco listed on the tour we only drive past and did not stop at, even though it said “admission included.” The third stop was approx 30mins at a gift shop with loads of other tour buses, which was a waste of time. The tour guide did not speak English, so had enlisted her student nephew to translate. He was very nice but was still learning English, so it was not ideal and he is not a tour guide. It was painfully slow and the information did not seem very helpful, so we ended up requesting to leave the ‘tour’ and requested meeting point at a set hour. Everyone else did the same and it was not well organized for the meeting points or managing expectations for the timings of the day, which led to delays and wasted time. The tour could have easily been half the time with better organization and a bilingual tour guide. Tons of wasted time. The tour was advertised as lunch included, however we had to pay for our lunch. We queried this at the time, but at the time of lunch the translator had already left for the day, the tour guide spoke zero English and didn’t appear to care as she was already eating her own lunch, so the driver stepped in to try to help out. He didn’t have us on a list of people who’s tour included lunch, so we faffed around for 10mins trying to login to the Viator app to prove our tour included lunch, by which time we were frustrated and told them never-mind we’ll just order and pay out of pocket. We did manage to access the confirmation to prove we were supposed to have lunch but were so frustrated by this point and the restaurant wasn’t anything special, so we just ordered a starter to share. Very poor communication, the day before the tour we had tried to contact them to check why they had told us a random meeting point 20mins away instead of the promised hotel pick up. We tried to contact them via phone (number not in service), WhatsApp text which only got an auto-reply and never responded and viator app messaging. Their first response ignored the question entirely and their second response said they couldn’t logistically do the hotel collections.
The tour guide makes the difference!

4.00Although this trip got off to a rocky start with poor communication of where we'd be picked up the day of, it all got sorted out and the rest of the experience was terrific! Ivan was a very knowledgeable guide and spent plenty of time sharing his knowledge as well as patiently answering all our questions in both English and Spanish. Visiting these sites would have been stunning on their own, but having such a guide as Ivan made it spectacular. Thank-you Ivan for sharing the day with us and thanks to Jorge for the safe transportation!
