The short version

Decide in four lines

No scrolling required — what the day trip is, who picks it, what it costs and how the morning unfolds.

What is it?

A done-for-you Teotihuacan day trip: round-trip transport from Mexico City, a shared dawn balloon flight over the pyramids and breakfast — one package, nothing for you to organise.

Who is it for?

International visitors based in Mexico City who'd rather book once and turn up — no rental car, no pre-dawn route-planning. A natural fit for couples, friends and anyone flying for the first time.

How much?

From $3,300 MXN per person (was $3,500). That single price holds the transport from CDMX, the flight, breakfast, insurance and the landing toast — nothing extra at the field.

How does it work?

Reserve online and we lock in your Mexico City pickup point. We collect you before dawn, drive out to the launch field in Teotihuacan, fly you at sunrise, sit you down to breakfast and return you to the city — usually by midday. If the weather won't cooperate, the reschedule is free and the transport comes with it.

Quick answer

The All Inclusive day trip, in five lines

The All Inclusive hot air balloon day trip from Mexico City to Teotihuacan is $3,300 MXN per person (reduced from $3,500).

That price already covers round-trip transport from Mexico City, a shared sunrise balloon flight over the pyramids, breakfast, certified pilots and passenger insurance — there are no add-ons to buy.

You spend about 45 to 60 minutes in the air; counting the transport and breakfast, the whole outing runs roughly 3 to 4 hours.

From the basket the rising sun lights up the Pyramid of the Sun, the Pyramid of the Moon and the Avenue of the Dead below you.

It is the simplest way to tick this off your list: book online, we collect you in the city, and there's no driving, no parking and no navigating in the dark. Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacán holds a 4.9-star rating from over 1,200 reviews.

Everything for the morning is in the price; the three on the right are other packages, not omissions.

Round-trip transport from Mexico City

We come to you in the city before dawn and drive you home again — so you never face the dark highway to Teotihuacan alone, never hunt for parking, never squint at directions at sunrise. Rest in your seat on the way out; we take care of the road. The full round trip is baked into the price, leaving you one job: be ready at pickup.

Shared sunrise flight

Rise as the first light spills across the Avenue of the Dead and the Pyramid of the Sun glows beneath the basket — roughly an hour from inflation to landing.

Breakfast

Come down to earth and sit down to breakfast — the easy, well-earned ending to a morning spent over the pyramids.

Insurance & certified pilots

Certified pilots fly every balloon and passenger insurance is built in as standard — it's part of the package, never an extra line item.

Toast on landing & cameras welcome

Touch back down, lift a glass to the flight, and yes — bring your phone or camera aboard for every frame of the dawn.

What's bundled into the All Inclusive day trip from Mexico City?

The package wraps in round-trip transport from Mexico City to the launch site in Teotihuacan, a shared sunrise balloon flight over the pyramids, breakfast, certified pilots, passenger insurance and a celebratory toast on landing — all for $3,300 MXN (down from $3,500). Your only job is to show up.

When and where does the transport from Mexico City set off?

Since balloons launch at sunrise, the transport from Mexico City leaves very early — usually before dawn — to get you to the launch field in Teotihuacan in good time for the morning flight. We send through your exact pickup point and time in Mexico City after you book, so plan on an early start.

How much of the day does it take up?

The flight itself runs about one hour, counting the preparation and the landing toast. Add the round-trip transport from Mexico City and breakfast and it fills the morning — you're generally back in the city by midday, with the afternoon still yours.

Is this a shared flight or a private one?

It's a shared sunrise flight — you fly alongside other passengers, and that's what holds the all-in price at $3,300 MXN. Prefer to keep the basket to your own group while still getting transport from Mexico City? Look at our Shared Flight + Private Transportation option or a fully private balloon.

What if the weather grounds the flight?

Safety always wins. If the conditions on your date won't allow a safe flight, we move the whole day trip — transport and all — to another morning at no cost. You never lose the booking; it simply shifts to the next clear sunrise.

Is it safe, and may I bring a camera?

Yes on both counts. Certified pilots run every flight, passenger insurance is part of the price, and you're free to bring your phone or camera aboard to capture the sunrise over the pyramids of Teotihuacan.

More answers for travelers

Sorting out your balloon day trip from Mexico City

Straight, factual answers to what international visitors ask most before booking a hot air balloon in Teotihuacan with transport from Mexico City.

What does the All Inclusive balloon day trip from Mexico City cost?

The All Inclusive hot air balloon day trip from Mexico City is $3,300 MXN per person, reduced from $3,500. Across the full Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacán line-up, prices run from $2,100 to $3,750 MXN per person, which places this round-trip, done-for-you option squarely in the middle of the range.

Is flying a hot air balloon in Teotihuacan safe?

Yes. Commercial pilots certified by Mexico's civil aviation authority (AFAC) fly every balloon, and passenger insurance is built into the price of every tour. When the weather won't permit a safe flight, the whole day trip is rescheduled for free — so a balloon only ever lifts off in safe sunrise conditions.

Is transport from Mexico City part of the All Inclusive day trip?

Yes — this is the hot air balloon Mexico City to Teotihuacan transport package, and the round-trip ride from Mexico City sits inside the $3,300 MXN price. We collect you in the city before dawn, drive you to the launch field in Teotihuacan and bring you back, so there's no driving, parking or pre-dawn navigation left to you.

How long are the flight and the full day trip?

You'll spend about 45 to 60 minutes in the air. Add the round-trip transport from Mexico City and breakfast and the outing comes to roughly 3 to 4 hours in total — you're usually back in the city by midday.

Is the balloon ride over the pyramids worth doing?

Yes. From the basket you watch the rising sun set the Pyramid of the Sun and the Avenue of the Dead aglow from above — a perspective the ground simply can't give you. Hot Air Balloon Teotihuacán holds a 4.9-star rating from over 1,200 reviews, and the All Inclusive package strips out every bit of logistics so all that's left is the enjoying.

Where is the balloon launch site?

The balloon lifts off at sunrise from a launch field beside the archaeological zone of Teotihuacan, in the State of Mexico, roughly an hour and a half from central Mexico City. On the All Inclusive day trip our transport takes you directly there, so there's no field to track down on your own.

Can older adults, pregnant women or children take part?

Most healthy travelers can fly, older adults included, provided they can stand for the length of the flight and climb into the basket unaided. Two rules are absolute and we cannot make exceptions for anyone: the minimum age is 5 years, and pregnant travelers cannot fly. For any other medical condition, let us know when you book so we can confirm whether flying is advisable for that passenger. Cameras and phones are welcome on board.

What precisely is in the All Inclusive package?

For $3,300 MXN per person you get round-trip transport from Mexico City, a shared sunrise balloon flight over the pyramids of about 45–60 minutes, breakfast once you've landed, an AFAC-certified pilot, passenger insurance, a celebratory toast on landing and a flight certificate. The only thing left out is anything extra to buy — there are no add-on charges for the transport or the breakfast.
