This tour needs to be redesigned

AlterPeerless, Jan 2026
Guide was knowledgeable and nice The driver did his job the pyramid information was interesting But there’s so much wasted time, especially at the beginning of the tour and at lunch. By the time we reached the cathedral, all we wanted to do is to get out of the tour. A drop off at the cathedral gift shop was ridiculous The cathedral was also closed for mass.So we were not able to go in. We left early because we felt we had had enough and took an uber back to our hotel. Way too many hours spent wandering around and waiting especially at the restaurant It was NOT a well designed tour with the traveler’s best interests in mind Not the guide‘ s fault The tourist traps were unnecessary and a waste of our travel day.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the guide knowledgeable and the information interesting. We’re sorry to learn that the pacing and waiting times did not meet your expectations. The itinerary is designed to balance visits, rest periods, and logistics, and shopping stops are optional; however, we understand that this experience felt frustrating for you. Your comments are very valuable and will be shared with our team to continue improving the tour design for future travelers.

Awesome Adventure

Herbert_V, Dec 2025
Our guide was awesome, so energetic, friendly, and knowledgeable about all the places we visited. I felt like I was watching a Discovery documentary but was the people in the documentary. We enjoyed the entire experience.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the experience and that our guide made it so engaging and informative. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to see you again soon.

Somewhat disappointed

Jeya_H, Sep 2025
It is better to find out whether the tour is Soley English or not. My husband and I are the only English speaking couple and the rest were all Spanish. Therefore the guide was trying to cater for both. He did his best and his English was very good but we were not told that the tour is going to be bilingual. The other disappointed was, although the tour was listed as 'Guadalupe Shrine and Teotihuacan', we spent 15 minutes in a shop near the Shrine and less than 30 minutes at the Shrine. We stopped at a old monastery/convent for 45 minutes and a lot almost and hour and a half in the arts and jewellery shop at Teotihuacan which was totally unnecessary. These times should have been spent at the Shrine.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the tour didn’t fully meet your expectations. The bilingual format and scheduled stops, including cultural and artisan visits, are listed in the description at the time of booking, but we understand this may not have been clear. We truly appreciate your comments and will keep working to improve communication. We'd love to welcome you again on a tour that better matches your preferences, feel free to reach out anytime for personalized suggestions.

The most friendly and...

The most friendly and exciting historic site tour I have ever taken. The restaurant was pretty decent too.

Thank you so much for your kind comment! we are so glad that you enjoyed the tour and we hope to see you again very soon!

Our tour guide didn’t turn up!

Xing_Z, Dec 2024
Our tour guide did not turn up! We have to contact another agency to take us to Teotihuacan. It was a very stressful experience.

Response from Host, Dec 2024

Dear Mr. Xing, Thank you very much for your feedback. We are sorry for the stress you experienced during your service to Teotihuacan. We arrived at the hotel at the scheduled time, as agreed, and although you saw us, you were looking for another guide who had previously provided services to you, which is why you did not board the transport. Later, you contacted us, and we did our best to return to the hotel so you wouldn't miss your tour. You signed the service acknowledgment with us, which was due to the confusion because you thought the service was with a different agency. Providing excellent service is always our top priority, and we made every effort to assist you during this busy holiday season. Kind regards,

Good experience

Visit to the Our lady of Guadalupe shrine, The tour guide at mexitours Gabriela Morales was excellent, very knowledgeable and did a great job!!! Thank you

It was Hell!

Marbet_A, Nov 2023
This was the worst experience in my life. Our itinerary said 9am, we were waiting for the bus for 45 minutes at their meeting spot & they never picked us up. I call them & they lied to me saying they drove by but we weren’t there. The hotel bellmen said they never showed up either. They sent me on a wild goose chase & never apologized nor tried to make it right.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

The reality is that no apology or comment will be enough to repair what happened. In the operations area we are taking the appropriate measures in this situation and working to improve the impression of our service in the company. Mexitours is committed to the satisfaction of the clients who kindly hire our services and it seems the problem began with the lack of information for your pick up schedule. At the end, the tour was given to you in English language and the complete visit to Teotihuacan and Guadalupe Shrine.

A delightful experience with a great tour guide and a good mix in the group!

Ameya_P, Oct 2023
An awesome tour of Guadalupe, Teotihuacan, The Temple (they’re not pyramids), Local Artist Shops followed by a delightful meal! The tour guide Abarro was awesome and a delightful person. Our group was also a good mix!!

Pyramid and our lady of Guadalupe shrine

Lidia_M, May 2023
Amazing driver and your guy. Especially tha one at the temples ( better known as pyramids). Just too little time at our Lady of Guadalupe shrine (30 min or less)😞

Response from Host, May 2023

Dear Lidia, Many thanks for your message. We take note about your comments, with this we will can do the best for all of you.

Plan for more time in the pyramids.

Juana_R, Jul 2022
Time in the pyramids was too short and time in the souvenirs store was too long. I recommend only 15 minutes in the store initially, 2 hours in the temple system/ pyramids (instead of just 1h).

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us, we are glad that you had a fantastic time. Best!

The tour was amazing. Although we couldn´t get inside due the pandemic we saw everything from the road. Guadeloupe Shrine Complex was very nice.

Beautiful places but lack of time management for the visits

Adriana_D, Nov 2025
Teothiacan is beautiful and deserves a visit but the tour left to be desired from the point of view of organization and time management. We left CDMX past 9:30 and instead of going straight to the pyramids pq this was the focus of the tour we stayed turning back until we stopped at a store where we stayed for more than 1 hour. When we arrived at the pyramids we had almost an hour to visit. The guide was very good and knew a lot of the history but did not give time to stay explaining otherwise we would not have time to visit. The same happened in the basilica we had 1h to visit. So for me time management made the experience very bad. If there is a traffic problem, if you have to pass in the local store then the tour start earlier and do not harm the weather in the locations.

ALLEZ SUR LE SITE SEUL . PAS PAR UNE AGENCE

MICHEL_E, Mar 2024
POUR LA VISITE BIEN MAIS ORGANISATION MINABLE TRIPLE ZERO 1) au départ on m'a laissé seul sur le trottoir je n'ai rejoins le groupe qu'environ une heure après J'ai payé pour visiter la cathédrale de Guadalupe et le site Tetihacan , pas pour passer ^plus de deux heures dans un magasin d'objats en obsideienne, ce qui a fait que nous sommes retournés sur Mexico à la tombée de la nuit et le guide ayant plusieurs personnes a déposer a endroits différents m'a laissé à un carrefour me disant que mon hotel était à 15 minutes a pied. J'ai marché pendant une heure et demie. TREES MAUVAISE ORGANISATION

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Mexitours s'engage à satisfaire les clients qui font appel à nos services, c'est pourquoi nous avons reçu avec regret les commentaires sur votre experience pour la visite des pyramides de Teotihuacán et du sanctuaire de Guadalupe le 1er mars dernier. Il semble que le problème était qu'après 16h00, il y avait un événement politique à proximité de votre hôtel et qu'il n'était pas possible de vous déposer à l'entrée principale ou même très près de celle-ci. De nombreuses avenues et rues étaient fermées aux véhicules et c'était hors de notre contrôle, la seule façon de passer était de marcher. Nous vous rappelons que notre espace service client est à votre disposition 24h á jour et 7 juors á la semaine afin que nos clients puissent vous appeler et demander tout renseignement. Notre visite est programmée pour 9-10 heures depuis le début, c'est pourquoi vous êtes revenu presque de nuit. Malgré la mauvaise expérience, nous sommes heureux de lire que vous appréciez les sites touristiques.

Responsable y profesional

Evelyn_s, Sep 2023
Positivo :Lo recomiendo son muy responsables. El guía conoce muy bien la cultura mexicana, explico cada detalle de las visitas. El tour a teotihuacan fue excelente me hubiera gustado más tiempo ahí qué en la basílica qué no es nada interesante. Negativo: La cata de tekila y mezcal no es una cata como tal, es una pequeña probada. Nuestro grupo fue muy extenso no me gustó eso.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

En Mexitours nos esmeramos en ofrecer a Uds. un servicio que cumpla con sus expectativas apoyándonos con personal preparado y con vastos conocimientos. Estamos felices que los servicios ofrecidos por el guía hayan sido de su completo agrado. Agradecemos de antemano sus amables comentarios. Con respecto a la distribución del recorrido, debemos hacer de su conocimiento que también ofrecemos recorridos por solo Teotihuacán sin visitar la Basílica de Guadalupe necesariamente y que se disfruta la zona arqueológica por igual. Esperamos que regrese muy pronto a México y tenga oportunidad entonces solicitar ese tour. En cuanto a la cata de las bebidas, pues se trata sólo de una pequeña degustación de las mismas y una breve explicación de la historia y elaboración de tequila y mezcal meramente informativo. En el tour que le comento de la visita a sólo Teotihuacán, existe una segunda opción que incluye un taller para los visitantes más detallado donde les hacen parte de la elaboración de bebidas artesanales.

Excelente
