1.Full-Day Tour Exploring the Waters of Tolantongo

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 14 to 16 hours (approx.) · from $134Our pick

Review of Tolantongo’s thermal pools, warm river, caves, and waterfalls on a long but well-organized day trip from Mexico City.

“Overall Tolantongo is worth a visit but we don’t recommend Viator. It would make more sense to book a private driver and stay at the hotel at least for one night! The trip to get there is very long (min. 4h) and the van was extremely uncomfortable and not only on the bumpy roads, which was the case half of the trip! The whole trip the van shaking and we were bumping around. Our seats didn’t have any windows. We were sitting in the back and we couldn’t hear anything the guide said, even though he didn’t say much. A guide for the tour is not needed, even though our…”

“Eloy was great. Very knowledgeable and good personality. Bike was a little tiring I think because of altitude. I wouldn't do if you're 20lbs or more overweight. Bikes need beach cruiser seats. I think my butt is bruised the day after from them.”

Review of a Teotihuacan hot-air balloon tour with breakfast, wine toast, pyramid visit, obsidian workshop, tequila tasting, and Guadalupe Shrine.

“The Guide David was a BIG Disappointment. Not engaged & uninterested in the group and giving any information. Was just mumbling away. At the Basilica, he made us literally charge after him for 10 mins and gave us a birds eys view and then disappeared. The sites are good - the balloon ride is a great experience and the pyramids are wonderful and the Basilica is healing. They waste a lot of time at the souveniour shop and brunch. And finally we reached the Pyramids at noon when it is very hot. Viator co-ordinator was not interested in the feedback we sent. They replied " inform the operator". So basically,…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 8 hours (approx.) · from $249

Ride a hot-air balloon over Teotihuacan, toast with sparkling wine, enjoy breakfast, explore the pyramids, and return to Mexico City.

“Excellent experience. Transportation from Mexico City to Teotihuacan. Then a hot air balloon ride over the pyramids. The balloon ride was fun itself, but seeing the ruins from above was amazing. I highly recommend it. Then you get a ride to the ruins to see them on foot which was great as well. We booked late so we did not get up in a balloon immediately, we had to wait for a bit. But that was not a big problem, it mean we had the sky to ourselves.”

Review of the Taxco and Cuernavaca day tour from Mexico City, with silver workshops, historic churches, transport tips, costs, and honest drawbacks.

“Pros: -El guía fue super puntual, muy amable y nos explicaba todos los datos históricos, algo que valore para elegir este tour fue que se acercarán a tu hotel o punto de salida. -La segunda platería que visitamos fue interesante por la historia que compartieron. -Hay tiempo para caminar y conocer el pueblito, vale la pena perderse por sus callecitas. Cons: -Platicando con los turistas vimos que no tenía sentido hacer una parada en Cuernavaca ya que lo único que se ve es la iglesia podría omitirse. -Teníamos una mayor expectativa con la plática de la platería que nos contarán más historia y en realidad pasas a una mina para…”

The town of Taxco was a very cute little town and wish we could stay there for our next trip. They also picked us up from our AirBnb so there was no need to be at a meeting point. The tour guide was very nice and good at his job. He was bilingual (Spanish and English) and made sure both languages were included. We definitely recommend for anyone trying to get to…”
