Brilliant tour of the Teotihuacan Pyramids

A very informative and interesting tour. Its a very long day but really worth it to get the full pyramid experience. Excellent guides and a superb buffet lunch included.

Pyramids and Basilica

The pyramids and the Basilica are great to visit…we were under the impression this was a small group with English guide. The group was 30+ and predominately Spanish speaking. My family was the only English speaking. The guide seemed rushed to give a mediocre discussion in English. The private morning transportation from hotel to area where the tours split was fine. But the big bus was the only transportation back and made stops at every hotel on the tour. We asked to be dropped off to Uber as the trip to Polanco would have been 2 + hours. Rather than following the itinerary we went to pyramids first. We arrived to Basilica too late to enter many of the chapels. Needless to say logistics was poorly thought out.
