Why choose this Mexico City tour ?
Our excursion focuses exclusively on Teotihuacan. We do not cram additional sites to speed through Teotihuacan. This trip is for individuals that want ample time in Teotihuacan to appreciate the archaeological site. The majority of the trip is in Teotihuacan and its surroundings.
We include almost anything you can think of that you will need throughout the day. You should be able to hop on the transport and worry about just exploring throughout the day.
