This was such a great experience.
#1: pick up was smooth and easy.
#2: balloon set up felt surreal. So many balloons being inflated or starting take off from the surrounding area. Very photogenic
#3 they take professional pics and a a drone video of you that you can choose to purchase at the end. We bought the usb hoping there’s a few we like of ourselves.
#4 the balloon ride was serene. You do feel like you’re floating. Not scary at all.
#5 didn’t have to worry about breakfast or coffee. It is provided.
It was wonderful not to have transportation to and from the pyramids from the city.
We also stopped at an artisan shop near the pyramid entrance where I purchased some authentic silver jewelry and obsidian goods. They gave us a presentation on the history/use of the agave plant and local minerals by the indigenous peoples of the area
We did opt to have a tour guide when we got to the pyramids for 2000 pesos divided by the number of us (5). Which was well worth it. There isn’t information posted about Teotihuacán so having the guide was ideal.
The inclusiveness makes it very worth the price!

This was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I'm not going to leave long description of the splendid views, just what I wish I'd known in advance:
a) Even if you (I) don't speak a word of Spanish, the people are SO great! They will be patient and will make you feel comfortable - even if they don't speak a word of English! don't be afraid!
b) It's not cold up there: the flames are so strong that it's warm and cozy in the basket - but make sure to have a jacket for when you land as the mornings are chilly, and it's cooler on the ground than in the sky;
c) Don't be afraid of the landing - the pilots are professional, and the crew on the ground make sure to take good care of the smooth landing;
d) if you take the tour to the pyramids with them, beware that the prices in the souvenir store you stop by on the way are at least double those you will be at Teotihuacan or a liquor store (for tequila). However, the history lesson they give you is worth paying extra, if you can.
e) Do try pulque :-) And Tequila
f) If you take a package with transportation and visiting the Pyramids - you will be back to Mexico no sooner than 2:30-3:00 PM. Plan accordingly
g) Pilot Oscar is the best!

My wife and 6 year old daughter and I were picked up from our hotel at 545am and we were driven shuttle with 7 others to the Sky Ballooning site in Teotihuacan. Everything was superbly organized and planned. We checked in and were served coffee and croissants/donuts/muffins as the magnificent balloons were filled. Clean bathrooms. Oscar (our pilot, 10 persons per balloon) gave my daughter a beautiful paper balloon which lifted off into the air after we lit the base on fire (intentionally). We took off at around 645am and the sunrise and airscapes were simply marvelous. Oscar was a terrific pilot. He opened a bottle of sparkling when we were high above! Our 6 year old loved ithe ballooning and so did we!!!!! After ballooning for a very comfortable hour or so we had a gentle landing and took some more pics-this time inside the balloon. Just VOW!! We then all went for a nice hot breakfast buffet and then spent two hours at the pyramids. We returned to the the hotel at 2pm-exhuasted but with a sense of unparalleled contentment. Bravo Sky balloons!! Magnifico!!!!
Warm people, beautiful country!

This sunrise 🌅 balloon ride over Teotihuacan is magical and unforgettable! I enjoyed it so much the first day, I booked again and took in another breathtaking sunrise! Sky balloons is an excellent company, very professional and their customer service is excellent! They will pick you up and return you to your hotel. When you arrive at the balloon field you are welcomed with hot coffee and a sweet roll while waiting for the balloons to inflate. Upon check in, you are assigned a pilot and balloon. When the balloon is almost ready the pilot will escort you to the balloon and get you settled into the basket. Lift off is thrilling! The beauty was amazing with the other balloons in the air!
Landing is another fun event! Finding a spot to land is tricky, but these expert pilots avoid the trees and power lines and the fields of Nopales to land you safely! This is definitely a bucket list item checked off!
