What are people saying about Teotihuacan

Amazing tour
The transportation arrived on time and it was clean and comfortable. The driver and our tour guide Ivan were really good. The half day tour is awesome if you don’t have much time but you still want to go to Teotihuacan, you are not taken to restaurants or anything is just the history lesson visiting the site, exactly what I was looking for. I totally recommend this tour.

A good way to reach Teotihuacan
The tour was very well organized and the van was very clean. We got a lot of information on obsidian and the maguey on our way to Teotihuacan. On our way back we stopped at the Basilica de Guadalupe where our tour guide Amado made sure we saw all the important spots. Amado was very inclusive and funny. He made sure nobody got lost and provided valuable background information. We would recommend this tour.

Excellent trip to the ancient past.
I highly recommend this trip. Teotihuacan is a spectacular place. A profound record of an impressive lost civilization. Our guide, Ivan was excellent. He picked us up promptly in a clean air-conditioned van. He explained the history and meaning of Teotihuacan very well. He had lots of photos and illustrations to help bring the place to life. His English was perfect. The whole experience was memorable. Top rate.

A tour with unparalleled expertise
I had an excellent tour with Jorge. It was of unparalleled value having an archeologist who has worked at the site provide archeological and anthropological context to the not just what happened at Teotihuacan 1500 years ago, but also what has been discovered and theorisd during the 20th century all the way up to today. The tour was around 4/4.5 hours long, and perfect for those wanting true expertise from their tours.
