11 Best Teotihuacan Tours From Mexico City

Are you thinking of booking Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City but have no idea which tour is best for you?

This article showcases 11 of the best tours to Teotihuacan from Mexico City, so you are sure to find the perfect tour for your trip.  

We spend several months each year in CDMX – we love exploring every corner of this fascinating city. We have also visited Teotihuacan two times – on tour and independently – so we know what the best Teotihuacan tours should offer. 

Teotihuacan, or ‘The City of the Gods’ , is an unmissable Mexico City attraction. We have been lucky enough to visit ancient sites all over Mexico and around the world, but despite this, the UNESCO-listed Teotihuacan completely blew our minds.

It consists of over 2000 structures, including two of the largest pyramids in the world . Its awe-inspiring size, scale, variety and incredibly well-preserved monuments make Teotihuacan one of the best ancient sites in the world. 

Plus, as it is so close to Mexico City, it is easy for visitors to get to, and there are tours to Teotihuacan to suit every travel style and budget. Read on to discover the best tours Mexico City has to offer you.

Best Private Teotihuacan Tours From Mexico City

There are several benefits of booking private Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City.

A private tour enables you to travel to your own schedule. You won’t have to waste time picking anyone else up or wait for them to finish their sightseeing (or worse, shopping!)

Plus, Teotihuacan private tours guarantee the undivided attention of your guide . If you want to ask lots of questions about the site, you may feel more comfortable doing so in front of your own group rather than strangers. 

Unfortunately, the downside of a Teotihuacan private tour from Mexico City is the price. The convenience, flexibility and comfort provided by a private tour come at a cost, but if these factors are important to you, then we think the cost is worth it.

Best Teotihuacan Hot Air Balloon Tours

If you want to do something a little different from the standard Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City, how about taking a hot air balloon over Teotihuacan?

We highly recommend Teotihuacan hot air balloon tours; in all our global travels, our hot air balloon ride over Teotihuacan is one of our favourite travel experiences .  

A Teotihuacan hot air balloon ride will give you a completely different perspective of the ancient site as well as reward you with an incredible view of the greater Mexico City area. 

It is important to note, however, that a Teotihuacan balloon ride is solely dependent on the weather, so allow for flexibility in your plans. 

Note that the following Teotihuacan hot air balloon tours have a maximum weight limit of 110 kg (220 lb) plus a minimum age requirement.

Afterwards, you will visit Mexicanitzimo , an obsidian and maguey workshop where you can taste different types of locally made alcohol. 

At approximately midday, you can spend up to 2 free hours visiting one of the most famous historic landmarks of CDMX – Teotihuacan . We recommend hiring a local guide at this stage to get the most out of your visit, as neither a guide nor an entrance fee is included in the tour price. 

If you opt for the additional transfers, you will be driven back to Mexico City in the early afternoon.

This tour has a maximum of 15 travellers , so that you will get a lot of attention from your guide. It requires a moderate level of fitness, and there are bike trailers available for children. 

The tour allows free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. One negative point is that it does not include travel from CDMX . 

You will need to make your own way to the meeting point at Teotihuacan, where you will have 2 hours to explore the site on your own . 

After the tour, you will start a 3-hour guided bike tour of the Teotihuacán Valley . You will visit an old neighbourhood that still preserves Teotihuacan mural painting, a pre-Hispanic observatory and a local cooperative. You will also stop en route for lunch in a local restaurant. 

We think a Teotihuacan bike tour is a great way to see the pyramids from a different perspective. It also enables you to slow down and appreciate the Mexican landscape!

How To Get To Teotihuacan From Mexico City Independently 

If you have decided that Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City are not for you, you are probably wondering how to get to Teotihuacan from Mexico City independently. 

The good news is that there are several options you can use. 

By a rental car

We think that the best way to get to Teotihuacan from Mexico City is by rental car . 

Although you will have to navigate Mexico City centre traffic, you can leave as early as you want to avoid the worst of the traffic. It also means you can get to Teotihuacan before it gets too hot or too crowded. 

Plus, if you are a couple or a group, driving to the Teotihuacan pyramids will be much cheaper than taking a tour. 

The 48 km / 30-mile drive should take around 50 minutes, depending on traffic. You will head north out of Mexico City to join the 85D toll road, the 132D toll road and finally the 132 before reaching Teotihuacan. 

If you decide that using a rental car is best for you, we always use and recommend Discover Cars . 

Buses from Mexico City to Teotihuacan take around 40 – 60 minutes, depending on traffic. 

The bus from Mexico City to Teotihuacan departs from the Central Norte station , which can be reached by the metro system’s Yellow Line . The buses start at 7 am and run every 15 minutes until around 6 pm. 

You can buy your tickets when you get to the bus station. Look out for ticket booths and buses labelled Autobuses Teotihuacan or Piramides . 

Before you buy your ticket, make sure your bus goes all the way to the pyramids and doesn’t terminate in San Juan Teotihuacan. We also recommend double-checking with the driver before you board the bus. 

The bus to Teotihuacan from Mexico City costs around $15 / €14 per person for a round trip . It is an affordable option, particularly for solo travellers. 

If you want the flexibility, comfort and speed of a car but want to avoid the stress of driving in Mexico City, your best option is to take an Uber to Teotihuacan. 

The current cost to take an Uber from Mexico City to Teotihuacan is around €44 / $47 . You won’t have to pay for petrol or insurance, so this is an easy, cost-effective way to take a day trip to Teotihuacan, Mexico. 

Teotihuacan Tours From Mexico City: FAQs

Is Teotihuacan worth visiting?

Yes, Teotihuacan is definitely worth visiting. We have visited Chichen Itza, Tikal in Guatemala and other famous sites, but we still love Teotihuacan. 

It boasts perhaps the most significant and important pyramids built in the pre-Columbian era. Its highlights include the majestic 66-metre-tall Pyramid of the Sun and the 43-metre-tall Pyramid of the Moon. Plus, the mystery surrounding who built it makes it an intriguing place to visit. 

Teotihuacan was once the largest city in the Americas and is thought to have been the sixth-largest city in the world of its time. 

This UNESCO World Heritage site is a fascinating, living history and cultural textbook, and we think it is a must-visit on any Mexico itinerary. 

What is the best time of day to visit Teotihuacan?

We think that Teotihuacan is best visited as early in the day as you can. If you arrive around midday, you will be exploring an unshaded site in the hottest, busiest part of the day. 

Visit early so you can enjoy Teotihuacan when it is cooler and quieter. 

We also recommend avoiding Teotihuacan on weekends – and particularly on Sundays. Mexico residents have free entry on Sundays, so you can expect the site to be very busy. 

Is Teotihuacan a lot of walking?

The Teotihuacan site measures approximately 20 square kilometres and contains over 2,000 structures, including palaces, temples, compounds and pyramids. The main thoroughfare, Avenue of The Dead, is 2.4 km long .

So, yes, you can expect to do a lot of walking if you visit Teotihuacan Mexico City!

How much do you tip a tour guide in Teotihuacan?

How much to tip your Teotihuacan tour guide depends on how much your tour costs and if you are satisfied with your tour. 

The standard tip rate is 10-15% of the tour cost, but if your guide has gone to extra effort for you, we think it is appropriate to tip between 15 – 20 %. 

Don’t forget if you have a driver as well as a tour guide you will need to give them a tip also. 

What do you wear to the Teotihuacan Pyramids?

Whether you choose to take one of the Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City or to visit independently, we strongly recommend dressing appropriately for your visit. 

Wear sturdy, comfortable shoes. Flip flops will not be comfortable for all the walking you are going to do. Dress in loose-fitting cotton or linen clothing that allows you to breathe in the hot temperatures. 

Wear a wide-brimmed sun hat to protect your face, ears and neck. There is very little shade in Teotihuacan, and you will burn quickly and easily if you do not protect yourself. 

What to pack for Teotihuacan?

We suggest packing sunscreen and sunglasses. Bring plenty of water , ideally in reusable water bottles, so you don’t add to the plastic waste on site. 

Pack some snacks or high-energy bars to fuel your walking. Don’t forget your camera and spare batteries (just in case!) 

If you do not plan on taking a guide, we recommend downloading or printing off your own information and guide to the site. What you are seeing will mean much more to you when you know and understand what it is. 

What are the Teotihuacan opening hours?

Teotihuacan is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m ., with the last entry at 3 p.m. The Cultural Museum closes at 4.30 pm. The site is open 365 days a year. 

How far is Teotihuacan from Mexico City?

Teotihuacan is 48 km / 30 miles northeast of Mexico City. As it has a short driving time of around 50 minutes, you can take half-day Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City if you are restricted on time. 

How much does it cost to go to Teotihuacan?

The cost to enter Teotihuacan is a very reasonable 80 MXP / $4 / €3.60 per adult . Children under 13 enjoy free entry. 

Your ticket includes entry to Teotihuacan, the Teotihuacan Cultural Museum and the Museum of Teotihuacan Murals. If you leave the museums or the site, you are allowed to re-enter if the time on your ticket is still valid. We like this element of flexibility, and it is a useful feature for families with young children. 

Do I need a tour for Teotihuacan?

If you take one of the Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City, you will travel at speed and in comfort. Plus, if your tour comes with a guide, you will learn a lot about the history of Teotihuacan and of Mexico in general. 

We cannot stress enough how important it is to ensure that you have adequate time on site. The best Teotihuacan tour will allocate at least two hours to the ancient site. 

However, it is not necessary to join a tour of Teotihuacan in order to visit the site. You can travel on your own by public transport or by self-driving. We do recommend hiring a guide once you are at the site in order to appreciate what you are seeing fully. 

Which is better Chichen Itza or Teotihuacan?

This is a difficult question to answer as it depends on your personal preferences. We have visited both sites and loved each of them. 

However, if we had to pick one site over the other, we would pick Teotihuacan. Our balloon ride was exceptional and created an exceptional memory for us.

Plus, Teotihuacan is a much bigger site than Chichen Itza, and to be honest, we found it more impressive because of this. 

How much is Uber from Mexico City to Teotihuacan?

As previously mentioned, an Uber from Mexico City to Teotihuacan costs around €44 / $47 one way. If you are a couple or a group of friends, this is an easy, cost-effective way to reach the pyramids and the ancient site. 

Can you climb up the pyramids at Teotihuacan?

Unfortunately, as of 2023, you can NOT currently climb either the Pyramid of the Moon or the Pyramid of the Sun at the Teotihuacan. Climbing the pyramids was stopped at the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, and access is still prohibited today. But you can still climb the smaller and less impressive Temple of the Feathered Serpent .

There is some debate as to whether visitors will ever be able to climb the pyramids again as archaeologists argue that the ever-increasing visitor numbers are slowly damaging the precious monuments. 

Watch this space! 

Is Teotihuacan Mayan or Aztec?

Although Teotihuacan got its current name from the Aztecs and contains some Mayan features, it wasn’t built by the Mayans or the Aztecs. It was built by a much older civilisation (the site dates back to 600 BC, well before the Aztecs). 

Some scholars have suggested that Teotihuacan was built by the Totonac or the Toltec people, but no one knows for sure. The unsolved question of who actually constructed Teotihuacan is part of its current appeal. 

What were the Teotihuacan known for?

Teotihuacan is probably best known for its two imposing pyramids, which sit at either end of the Avenue of the Dead. The Pyramid of the Moon and the Pyramid of the Sun are two of Mexico’s most recognizable landmarks. 

The Pyramid of the Sun is one of the largest pyramids in the world.

How many pyramids are at Teotihuacan Ruins?

In addition to the Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon, there are 15 smaller, monumental pyramids. 

How do you pronounce Teotihuacan?

The correct pronunciation of Teotihuacan is one of the first things Teotihuacan tours from CDMX will teach you! If you want to know before you go, it is pronounced te-aw-tee-wah-kahn. 

Teotihuacan Tours From Mexico City: Final Thoughts

We have visited Teotihuacan independently and as part of a tour. Therefore, we can conclusively say that Teotihuacan tours from Mexico City are the best way to understand and appreciate this remarkable location. 

You will learn so much more about its history, stories and legends than if you tour the site alone. 

Whichever tour you choose, make sure its schedule, group size and budget fit your criteria. We also recommend choosing a tour that allows at least 2 hours on-site. 

We guarantee this incredible site will wow you, and like us, you will want to return again and again.

Teotihuacan is an ancient, prehispanic city and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has some oof the most famous and best ruins in Mexico.

This archeological site dates back to the mysterious Teotihuacan civilization and the Teotihuacanos. This civilization predates the Aztecs, though archeologists say the Aztecs did inhabit Teotihuacan in the 1400s.

How do you pronounce Teotihuacan?

How old is Teotihuacan Ruins archeological site?

The exact age isn’t known, but many Teotihuacan Pyramids history experts say it was founded as early as 400 BC — making it about 2,500-years-old.

At its peak, the Teotihuacan population was as high as 200,000 people, one of many cool Teotihuacan history facts!

Who built Teotihuacan?

Though it’s attributed to the Teotihuacanos and named Teotihuacan, no one knows for sure that they built the site.

Since little is known about these ancient peoples, the best guest historians have ( at least for now ), is that the Teotihuacano civilization built it, and the Toltec and Aztec civilizations later inhabited it.

How many pyramids are at Teotihuacan Ruins?

There are three Teotihuacan pyramids : Pyramid of the Sun, Pyramid of the Moon and Pyramid of Quetzalcoatl (quetz-al-co-wat-ull).

From the Teotihuacan entrance to the pyramids, you’ll walk down the 1.25-mile-long (2km) Avenue of the Dead.

There are about 10 smaller structures with Teotihuacan art along the way, so it might be more accurate to say Teotihuacan has three large pyramids, and about 10 smaller pyramid structures.

Note: In Spanish, you’ll see this site called Piramides de Teotihuacan, Piramides Teotihuacan, Pirámides Teotihuacán, Teotihuacan Piramides, Teotihuacan Pirámides — though they all refer to the Teotihuacan Ruins.

Can you climb the pyramids at Teotihuacan?

Yes — You can climb the most of the structures and the majority of pyramids at Teotihuacan.

There are a few smaller structures roped off, but all the three large pyramids are open for those who want to climb some ancient ruins in Mexico !

Do note, it’s a much steeper climb than it looks, so be extra careful when climbing the pyramids.

Many wonder, Is travel insurance mandatory for Mexico? While Mexico travel insurance isn’t mandatory, it’s certainly something you will want.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

Is moscow or st petersburg more beautiful.

Moscow and St Petersburg are two completely different cities and difficult to compare. Both are beautiful in their own way. Moscow’s sprawling cityscape reflects centuries of history in a mixture of architectural styles - gilded cupolas of medieval Russian churches merge with Stalinist monoliths and towering glass skyscrapers, and cobble-stone alleys balance grand boulevards. St Petersburg’s centre was laid out over a matter of decades, its regular and harmonious city plan lined with Neoclassicist, Art Nouveau and Baroque masterpieces, intersected with meandering canals. If you can’t choose between the two, check out our best combined Moscow and St Petersburg tours.

What is the best time to visit Moscow and St Petersburg?

A trip to St Petersburg or Moscow at any time of year will be enjoyable. Museums and galleries are much less busy during winter, accommodation is significantly cheaper, and you can enjoy outside activities such as skiing or sleigh rides. Exploring the cities is more enjoyable in the warmer months, and St Petersburg especially beckons during the White Nights.

Công bố nguyên nhân golfer Mỹ chết khi đang thi đấu ở PGA Tour

Mỹ Grayson Murray qua đời ở tuổi 30 sau khi bỏ dở vòng 2 Charles Schwab Challenge 2024, dù sự nghiệp và tinh thần khởi sắc sau nhiều năm bất ổn.

"Con trai chúng tôi vừa mất. Cuộc sống đã không suôn sẻ cho Grayson. Và dù tự chọn cách kết liễu đời mình, chúng tôi hiểu giờ nó đã an nghỉ", PGA Tour hôm 26/5 dẫn lời bố mẹ Murray.

Trước đó, tổ chức chủ quản đấu trường golf hạng nhất Mỹ thông báo Murray qua đời, khi Charles Schwab Challenge 2024 vào vòng 3 trên sân Colonial par70. Vòng 2, Murray vẫn thi đấu nhưng bỏ hai hố cuối với lý do sức khỏe. Lúc đó, anh đạt điểm +3, trong khi điểm cắt loại ở mức +2.

PGA Tour xem đó là mất mát lớn đối với cả đấu trường, theo đặc phái viên Jay Monahan.

Golfer quê ở Bắc Carolina qua đời giữa lúc sự nghiệp chuyển biến tích cực, sau khi thoát cảnh trầm cảm và nghiện rượu. Giới chuyên môn từng hy vọng Murray sẽ trở lại cuộc sống bình thường và tiếp tục phấn đấu chuyên môn. Cách đây bốn tháng, anh còn bày tỏ lạc quan về tương lai, đã lấy lại niềm tin và sắp cưới vợ.

"Tôi sẽ không đánh đổi gì nữa. Vì giờ đây, tôi có hôn thê xinh đẹp, bố mẹ, chị gái và cháu tuyệt vời. Họ đã luôn bên cạnh tôi trong thời gian khó khăn. Đời tôi hiện tươi sáng hẳn", Murray chia sẻ sau khi ẵm cup Sony Open 2024, hồi tháng 1. Đó là giải đánh dấu anh trở lại PGA Tour sau một năm rớt xuống hạng nhì Korn Ferry Tour, đồng thời chấm dứt gần bảy năm khát danh hiệu trên đấu trường golf hạng nhất Mỹ.

Tháng 8 năm ngoái, Murray còn theo khóa học tự vệ và quản trị nỗi sợ với Tony Blauer - HLV chuyên cộng tác với lực lượng đặc nhiệm SEAL của quân đội Mỹ.

Murray lần đầu về nhất trên PGA Tour tại Barbasol Championship 2017. Trong vài năm sau đó, anh gây nhiều tai tiếng như đuổi việc caddie ngay giữa vòng đấu, xúc phạm nữ sinh trung học trên mạng xã hội, ném gậy gạt rồi bẻ đôi gậy sắt bằng cú thúc gối trong vòng cuối major US Open 2022...

Sau khi Murray chết, Charles Schwab Challenge 2024 vẫn tiếp diễn theo đề nghị của gia đình anh khi được Ban tổ chức tham vấn ý kiến. Để tưởng nhớ Murray, tất cả golfer đấu vòng cuối đều mang hoặc cài băng đỏ hoặc đen – hai màu Murray thường mặc mỗi khi góp mặt trong chặng về đích trên PGA Tour.

Sự kiện hạ màn sáng nay 27/5, giờ Hà Nội với cup và 1,638 triệu USD thuộc về Davis Riley. Golfer này ghi mốc thắng -14, bỏ cách bỏ cách năm điểm so với T2 gồm số một thế giới Scottie Scheffler và Keegan Bradley - người đã đoạt sáu cup trên PGA Tour, trong đó có major PGA Championship 2011.

Tân vô địch Charles Schwab Challenge năm nay 27 tuổi, ở Mississippi, đã qua năm năm đấu chuyên nghiệp, trong đó đánh 90 giải trên PGA Tour. Chiến thắng ở Texas giúp Riley tăng 172 bậc, lên thứ 78 bảng golf chuyên nghiệp thế giới tuần này.

Zelensky secures further promise of military aid as he continues EU tour

Slow deliveries of support by its Western partners, especially a lengthy delay in US military aid, have left Ukraine at the mercy of Russia’s bigger a

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has received a second one billion dollar promise of military aid in as many days during a whirlwind tour of three European Union countries.

It comes as President Vladimir Putin warned that hitting Russian soil with Western-supplied weapons could set the war on a dangerous new path.

The aid pledge for 2024 came from Belgium, which topped up the money with a commitment to give Ukraine 30 F-16 fighter jets in the next four years.

“Our task is to use the first F-16 on the battlefield this year and in such way fortify our positions,” Mr Zelensky said.

He later travelled to Portugal, where he said it was important that Ukraine’s supporters do not allow themselves to be misled by Russia and that “we don’t grow tired of the war”.

The onslaught by the Kremlin’s better-equipped forces that is unfolding in eastern and north-eastern Ukraine as summer approaches has brought Ukraine its biggest military test since Russia’s full-scale invasion began in February 2022.

Slow deliveries of support by its Western partners, especially a lengthy delay in US military aid, have left Ukraine at the mercy of Russia’s bigger army and air force.

European countries have been discussing the possibility of deploying troops to Ukraine in support roles, while talk of giving seized Russian assets to Ukraine has further angered Moscow.

Mr Putin has repeatedly warned the West against deeper involvement in the fighting, holding out the spectre of a nuclear conflict.

The use of Western-supplied long-range weapons by Ukraine to strike Russian territory could bring a dangerous escalation, Mr Putin said on Tuesday, speaking to reporters while on a trip to Uzbekistan.

The use of such weapons would rely on Western intelligence data and imply the involvement of Nato military personnel, Mr Putin said, warning the alliance that it should be aware of the possible consequences.

“Representatives of countries that are Nato members, particularly in Europe, should be aware of what they are playing with,” he said, adding that “countries with small territory and dense populations” should be particularly careful.

The Netherlands promised to quickly assemble with key EU partners a Patriot air defence system, which Mr Zelensky sees as key in stopping Russia from hitting Ukraine’s power grid and civilian areas, as well as military targets, with devastating glide bombs.

Nato chief Jens Stoltenberg welcomed the move but insisted much more work was needed.

“We have seen some progress, but more progress and more air defence systems are urgently needed in Ukraine,” Mr Stoltenberg said as he headed into a meeting of EU defence ministers.

Before returning to Ukraine, Mr Zelensky visited Portugal and signed another bilateral agreement.

Portugal is one of Western Europe’s poorest countries and has a small military compared with its bigger EU partners.

Prime Minister Luis Montenegro said Portugal is sending a further 126 million euros in military and financial aid to Kyiv as part of a broad co-operation plan.

On Monday, Mr Zelensky signed a security agreement with Spain that allocates one billion euros of military aid to Ukraine in 2024, and five billion euros by 2027.

The bilateral aid is essential since the 27-nation bloc is again struggling to overcome Hungary’s objections to the EU itself providing billions of euros in military aid to Kyiv.

An estimated 6.5 billion euros are stalled by the Hungarian government of Prime Minister Viktor Orban, considered Russia’s staunchest ally in the EU.

Single member states have wide veto powers, and Hungary has long held up funds aimed at boosting Ukraine’s defences.

“That’s the sad thing that we have the cash, we have the capacity, but we are still pending decisions to implement” aid decisions for Ukraine, said EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell.

Mr Zelensky met with Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo, and as well as the immediate money, he obtained a security agreement aimed at providing guarantees of military help until Ukraine joins Nato.

Since Russia launched a spring offensive in the north-eastern Kharkiv region, Mr Zelensky has insisted Ukraine urgently needs seven more US-made Patriot air defence systems.

Mr Putin says the Kremlin’s forces are seeking to establish a “buffer zone” in Kharkiv to prevent Ukraine launching attacks across the border there.

Dutch defence minister Kajsa Ollongren, meeting with her EU colleagues, said a Patriot system will be built “in a short time frame”.

The Netherlands has the core components for a Patriot system and other EU nations will contribute other key parts and munitions.

“Ukraine is also fighting Europe’s fight,” she said.

Mr Zelensky was to visit Belgium and Spain earlier this month but postponed all his foreign trips after Russia launched its Kharkiv offensive and left Ukrainian forces reeling.

In other developments, the UN’s atomic agency’s chief was in Russia’s westernmost territory of Kaliningrad to talk about safety issues involving the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine.

The plant has been occupied by the Russian forces since early in the war, and all of its reactors have been in a cold shutdown.

Frequent shelling around Europe’s largest nuclear plant has raised global concerns over nuclear security.

International Atomic Energy Agency director-general Rafael Grossi met with Alexei Likhachyov, head of Russia’s state nuclear energy corporation Rosatom.

The Russian state news agency RIA Novosti quoted Mr Grossi as saying that “common understanding” has been reached on the steps that are necessary to enhance the plant’s security, but restarting it “seems impossible” at the moment.

Mr Likhachyov echoed his sentiment on restarting the plant, but also vowed its current state is “absolutely safe”.
