Overview

Are you in Mexico City? Dare to experience the incredible thrill of a hot air balloon flight over the pyramids of Teotihuacán. If you’re looking to completely disconnect, we recommend our "all-inclusive" flight option.
This experience is designed for those who want to enjoy the utmost comfort and safety.

It includes: round-trip transportation, a hot air balloon flight, breakfast inside a cave, an artisan workshop with a beverage tasting, and a visit to Teotihuacán (admission included).

We will pick you up directly from your accommodation and take you from Mexico City to Teotihuacán.

You’ll enjoy a flight while taking in the sunrise, and after landing, we’ll head deep underground to enjoy breakfast inside a natural cave.

Additionally, you’ll visit a cultural center with a distinctly Mexican theme, where a pleasant surprise awaits you. To wrap things up, you’ll have free time to explore the Teotihuacán archaeological site.
Don’t miss out on this highly personalized, premium service!
