What an unforgettable day! Our guide Carlos de Peña was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, accommodating and prepared. He explained the history of this place with captivating stories and enthusiasm. He knew the answers to every one of our many questions. Even though a few parts of the enormous site were shut dowm due to covid he brought along photos, maps and diagrams of them to make sure we didn’t miss out. Great snacks were included and we made a stop for some delicious barbacoa along the way. 10/10 Fantastic!

Amazing
Silvia was a terrific guide at Teotihuacan. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and spoke English extremely well. Ulysses, our driver, was also fantastic. We were on the fence about doing a guided tour vs just going ourselves and we undoubtedly made the correct choice. I would highly recommend.

great guide
Jocelyn was a great guide! The timing and content of the half day tour to Teotihuacan was perfect. We beat the crowds in the morning, it wasn’t too hot, and we got back in time for lunch. I would definitely recommend Vibe Adventures and specifically this tour.

amazing tour!
Had an amazing tour of Teotihuacan. In large part due to our guide Julia. She was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the history. Going early was definitely the right decision too since there weren’t very many other people there at the beginning.

worth it
I used Vibe Adventures for a private tour of Teotihucan. They were on time, courteous, and incredibly knowledgeable. I did my tour with Jonathan and he was off the charts good. It was in Spanish so I can’t speak on the English, but it was worth every penny.

wonderful time in Teotihuacan
We had a wonderful time on the Private Day Tour to Teotihuacan from Mexico City. Vibe worked with us patiently and professionally as we had to reschedule our tour because of Covid, not once but twice. Paula was our tour guide and her extensive knowledge of the site was invaluable. She provided us with detailed information regarding the construction of the pyramids and surrounding buildings, down to the composition of the concrete, the methods of irrigation, and how they created the red dye used on the artwork that still remains after all these years. We had a great experience with Vibe Adventures and highly recommend this tour.

awesome experience
Had an awesome private half day tour to Teohuaticlan with Paula (guide) and Emmanuel (driver)! Paula was very sweet and knowledge and made sure we were comfortable the whole time with bathroom breaks, water, snacks, etc. Even with traffic we made it back to our hotel with perfect timing. A tour!

fantastic tour
Our guide and driver for our day trip to Teotihuacan were both fantastic. Our guide made sure we saw all the highlights and had interesting information to share. Our driver gracefully tolerated my efforts at Spanish. We ended up having a great conversation between CDMX and the pyramids and back.Going early is a great idea there were a ton of cars slowly making their way into the site as we left. We got in quickly. Mayahuel for lunch was a good choice.

awesome
I used this Company for a half day tour to Teotihuacan from CDMX. Ari was on time and so friendly. The tour was very educational and provided a great walk through the ruins. Ari was so kind to provide other recommendations for us based on different attractions we were interested in for the rest of our short trip to CDMX. I would highly recommend booking her for a tour!

friendly guide
Took the half day tour to Teotihuacan. I was really happy with the service ! Salvador reached out the day before to precisely arrange travel, pick up etc… It felt really good to have that kind of support as everything else was coordinated online. I wasn’t blown away by the tour itself as I think there were a lot of historical details that were left out, but also, I have to admit I was traveling with kids so maybe a long history lesson wouldnt have been the best :). In any case, Salvador was very helpful, guided us throught the main parts of Teotihuacan, and even went back to get the car and pick us up on the far side saving the kids a huge walk under the sun. I would highly recommend the tour if you want a simple and convenient solution to the logistics and friendly guide.
