The balloon and tour...

The balloon and tour experience was wonderful. Our driver Sergio and tour guide Saul were professional and fun. The Volare balloon operator knew his stuff! It was worth doing the combination package as each included experience was great. Would highly recommend this tour.

Magical ballon ride over the pyramids

What a magical experience over the pyramids. The tour guides were excellent, and the photographer was amazing. Another moment in time crossed off my bucket list. They stayed in communication with me during my booking and up until the moment of pick up. So dependable and reliable for sure.

This was an amazing...

This was an amazing experience! It was super simple to sign up and a smooth experience from pickup to return. Each step was guided and explained thoroughly. Our guide, Diego, was passionate and did a great job contextualizing the world when Teotihuacan was constructed. I highly recommend signing up for the full package for the best experience.

Do not miss this

Absolutely incredible. Be sure to dress warm but with layers. You can leave your jackets in the van as it gets warmer in the day. I wish I had known that before. My favorite part of the tour was with our guide. He was funny and gave the history in such a clear way that was educational (which I loved) but entertaining for people who may not love history as much. Be SURE to wear a hat. Breakfast was bland, but the cave was really nice. The gift shop has some fun things, but you can get it all much cheaper inside the actual park. 10/10 recommendation. I plan to bring my son back and do this same tour.

Great tour. And great job Isaac.

Such a wonderful experience. Pick up was smooth and quick ride to the balloons. You’re in a very comfortable sprinter van. Isaac met us and was our guide for the day. Balloon experience was top notch and we had an amazing pilot that gave us the best views and 10/10 landing. Breakfast in the cave was very good and cool experience. The pyramids were very cool. You don’t have a guide inside and wonder on your own but can cozy up to some other groups and listen in if you want. It’s cold in the am and warm at the pyramids.

Book the whole package!

Absolutely incredible experience! We booked just the balloon flight but decided to join the breakfast in a cafe portion too and it was great. Carlos is a great guide and if we could do it over again we would have booked the entire package - getting an Uber was very, very difficult at 4:30AM.

Rita_S, Apr 2026

Bucket list item - check!

A full day experience. It's tiring, but worth it. Very well organized and a lot of fun. A few things to note that I wish I knew before. - The balloons are huge, and there are more than 20 people on the ride. Your group is placed in small sections of 4-5 adults in each. There's not much room to move around. - The vans are a little old and very bumpy, especially in the back. If you get car sick, be careful. - The "bread and coffee" before the balloon ride - it was muffins (with NUTS), cookies, and sweet coffee. FYI, in case you have to watch your sugar intake or have food allergies. - It's cool/cold in the morning, especially while waiting for the balloon to fill up. While in the balloon, it's windy, but the heat from the fire is also hot. It gets very warm during the late morning pyramid hike. LAYER your clothing, and bring a hat/sunscreen for the second part of the excursion. You can leave your items in the van at each stop. Note, you're not allowed to bring anything on the balloon, even a small purse. - The breakfast at the cave is beautiful and delicious (chilaquiles or omelets). They have vegetarian and vegan options, too. Just ask. - During the market/mezcal tasting. If you like the Obsidian stone items, purchase them there. I thought I could find it back in CDMX, but I couldn't find it easily in the city.

Cheers to Allen & Leonardo!

Allen & Leo were amazing. We felt safe the entire time Leo drove. Allen was very friendly. He smiled and answered questions throughout our time with him. The balloon ride was stunning! The ride was smooth and we took beautiful shots ourselves, and the video/picture package was absolutely worth it! Breakfast at the cave was yummy. I opted for the mushroom and cheese omelet. We had Mexican coffee and sorrel drink. The stop at the local space was cute. Learned about obsidian and various minerals and had a few tasting. The pyramids tour was educational. Remember to bring your sunblock, hat, & water! The stairs are high and steep if you choose to climb/descend. Our guide was knowledgeable Will recommend this tour especially with Allen & Leo as our guides!

Balloon ride excluding breakfast & tour of pyramids

We drove to the We Fly office as we only had time for the hot air balloon ride. Check in was seamless and didn’t require our passports, however accessing a locker to store our bags required a drivers licence. There’s a gift shop with hoodies and beanies in case you’re cold (although they are quite expensive). The balloon ride itself was amazing and we had a beautiful sunrise. It wasn’t too cold in the air, particularly given the heat from the balloon. The pilot seemed experienced, but spoke only Spanish (despite asking us if we preferred he speak English as well). We had a glass of apricot wine after landing. We purchased one of the frames from the drone footage for ~$70 aud - pricey but it was great footage. Everything was well run and very professional. We felt safe throughout the entire experience.
