Can you imagine flying over the Teotihucán Valley? Live through an unforgettable experience, admiring one of the most important Mesoamerican civilisations from above.
Teotihuacán Hot Air Balloon Ride
We'll meet at the scheduled time at the Independence Angel statue in Mexico City and make our way to the take-off point.
As we wait for the balloon to fill with air we'll enjoy a coffee or a snack to fuel up. We'll then climb into the basket and set off on a unique trip through the skies.
The balloon tour will last around 45 minutes and will fly over the Teotihuacan Valley, enjoying the best views of the most visited archaeological site in Mexico.
From the clouds, we'll get a unique perspective on the "City of the Gods" admiring wonders such as the Sun Pyramid, the Quetzalpápalotl Palace, the "Road of the Dead", "Pyramid of the Moon" and Quetzalcoatl Temple.
To end this fascinating experience, we'll follow worldwide tradition, with a toast and a full buffet breakfast, and all participants will receive a certificate to accredit them as certified hot-air-ballooners!
Afterwards, you will have around 2 hours to visit the Teothiuacán ruins at your own pace and discover this incredible site.
But that's not all! We'll attend an artisan workshop to learn about Teotihuacan customs. We'll learn some of the uses of obsidian, the importance of the agave plant, how mead is fermented and how silver pieces are made. As the finishing touch to this special day, we'll enjoy a tasting of pulque, tequila, cactus liqueur, and mezcal. Cheers!
Lastly, we'll make our back, ending the tour in Mexico City around 4:00 pm.
