Great value - educational and efficient. - Rose (guide) and Eli (driver) were great. They picked us up right on time. We had an interesting day learning Mexican history and culture from Rose and they made sure every step was safe and enjoyable. The lunch spot was very good (definitely tourist prices) and the van was small and a hard to see out the small windows (but not their fault!) This is an excellent way to see the pyramids and the basilica and a good value.

Great Experience with a bit of everything. - This tour was great, we experienced a bit of everything. Our Tourguide Rosa Maria was amazing. She was very good at explaining the history of the Mexican people dating back to pre historic times. The pyramids of Teotihuacán were breathtaking and impressive. The Basilica de Guadalupe was memorable and our tour group became like a family by the end of our trip! 10 out of 10 all around! Our kids who are 9 and 10 also enjoyed the tour and had a lot of question. Rosa Maria our tour guide was patient and answered all their questions with kindness and knowledge.

Interesting - Our tour guide was a knowledgable and fun man and he was great. The issue was the morning was chaotic - the first 2 hours were collecting people along the way which made for the day to be very long!
