Witness Teotihuacán like never before—floating over its ancient pyramids at sunrise. Whether you're here just for the ride or upgrading to a full cultural deep dive, this experience blends adventure, history, and unbeatable views.
Your day begins early, and your meeting point depends on the option you’ve selected:
For the hot air balloon ride without transportation, you must arrive at Aerodiverti Teotihuacan Balloon Port (55850 San Martín de las Pirámides, Méx., México) at either 6am or 7:30am, depending on your booking. It is important to arrive on time to allow for check-in and pre-flight safety procedures.
For the hot air balloon ride with transportation, meet at Citibanamex, Ángel de la Independencia, Mexico City, at 5am. Here, you will board a shared transfer to the balloon port.
For the full experience, including a guided tour of Teotihuacán and the Basilica of Guadalupe, the meeting point remains the same at Citibanamex, with transportation provided throughout the day.
Upon arrival at the balloon port, you will check in and be assigned to your balloon. A briefing will cover safety instructions, the boarding process, and what to expect during the flight. You will also have the opportunity to enjoy a light coffee or tea while the balloons are prepared for departure.
Float over the Pyramid of the Sun, the Pyramid of the Moon, and the Avenue of the Dead—the same views that ancient Teotihuacános once revered.
See the Magical Towns of San Martín de las Pirámides and San Juan Teotihuacán from the sky.
Toast to your adventure with a sparkling wine celebration and receive a flight certificate to mark the occasion.
Enjoy a hearty breakfast to recharge before the next leg of your journey (if selected).
If you’ve chosen the full experience, your adventure continues:
Explore Teotihuacán—Walk the same paths as ancient civilizations, learning about the city's rituals, sacrifices, and architectural marvels.
Visit an obsidian workshop—Watch artisans craft volcanic rock into stunning souvenirs and sample some authentic drink.
Basilica of Guadalupe—Discover one of the world’s most significant Catholic pilgrimage sites, where millions come to honor Our Lady of Guadalupe. Visit the Old Basilica, the New Basilica, and other sacred chapels.
If you selected only the hot air balloon ride, you are free to continue exploring the area at your own pace after breakfast.
If you booked the transportation option, you will be taken back to the original meeting point at Citibanamex, Ángel de la Independencia in Mexico City.
For those who chose the extended tour, you have the option to be dropped off at the Basilica of Guadalupe and explore on your own after the guided visit. If you prefer, you can return with the group to the original meeting point.
