Your day starts with a pickup at your hotel or a central point in Mexico City. Ride comfortably while your guide shares context about Mexico’s history and Teotihuacán’s role in it.
On many tours, you’ll visit Tlatelolco to see where Aztec, colonial, and modern history overlap. It sets the stage before you head toward the pyramids.
Skip long queues with pre-reserved entry. Your guide sets the pace and outlines the route—usually along the Avenue of the Dead.
Walk this central axis while learning how the city once housed over 100,000 people. Guides explain the urban planning and sacred alignment of the pyramids.
Climb or stand at the base of the largest pyramid in Mesoamerica. Hear stories about rituals, offerings, and how the pyramid was built without metal tools or wheels.
At the north end, take in views of the valley. Your guide explains how ceremonies honoring fertility and water deities were conducted here.
Admire its intricate stone carvings. Guides decode the symbolism behind the serpent and the role of human sacrifice in ancient culture.
Depending on your tour, you may stop at a local workshop to see obsidian crafts, sample pulque or tequila, or explore a pre-Hispanic cave with food tastings.
Wrap up with a visit to Mexico’s most important pilgrimage site. Learn how Catholic and indigenous traditions blended here.
Admire from the base of the tallest pyramid in the Americas. Your guide explains how it was built without wheels, metal, or beasts of burden, and why it aligned with the cosmos.
Walking tours inside the site usually last about 2 hours. Full-day tours from Mexico City range from 6 to 11 hours depending on whether they include Guadalupe, Tlatelolco, or a cave visit.
Yes. Most tours include pickup from central Mexico City or your hotel. Private options guarantee door-to-door transfers, while shared tours may use central meeting points.

Yes. Children can handle the walking parts, but pyramid climbs are tough for young kids. Many families choose half-day or walking tours with a slower pace.
