Smooth pick up and drop... - Smooth pick up and drop off, good arrangement for all the activities in this package. The balloon ride is spectacular, we were also lucky to have a nice weather too. The breakfast in the cave restaurant is interesting too, a special experience.
Our guide for the pyramids are knowledgeable and friendly too. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Globo Magnifico - One of the highlights of our trip to CDMX is to see the Teotihuacan pyramids on a sunrise balloon flight. Jeanie and Fabio picked us up in Condesa at 4:50AM. She explained the itinerary of the day. Jeanie's English is excellent and her bubbly personality made the entire experience so fun.
We didn't know this but apparently we had one of the smaller balloons with 12 people. We met others in a balloon with 30 people. Much nicer to be in a smaller balloon. They took lots of photos and videos that you can purchase. The quality was very good so we did purchase them.
After the balloon ride, we had breakfast in a local cave restaurant. Seems like most if not all the balloon operators go here.
After breakfast, we were driven to the pyramids for a close up walking tour. Jeanie was our tour guide and she was excellent with her knowledge and her ability to keep everyone engaged. We all walked away having learned something new about this special area.
We highly recommend this operation.

Not to be missed! - This was the highlight of the trip for me. The captain of our balloon was enthusiastic and friendly. All of the crew (takes a lot of teamwork to get a balloon aloft!) were friendly. Definitely take the tour. The added insight deepened my appreciation of the whole experience. And breakfast in a cave was actually quite cool! Wear a sweater or jacket to begin. I wore shorts and the initial chill was fine.

Highly recommended - Highly recommended. Great experience from start to finish. Our driver arrived sharply on time, we waited about two cups of coffee and one bathroom visit long before taken to observe filling up of the ballon. Once in air there’s a drone camera following the balloons so remember to waive and smile (a copy would be available in the end for purchase) - I wish I knew beforehand cuz it would have freed me from taking my own subpar photos and focus on the observation.
The breakfast was what it was - an experience. Don’t expect fine cuisine but it was in a cave and we were sat on barn tables and were able to mingle a bit with other tourists which was nice.
After breakfast we were chauffeured to the anthropological zone (pyramids). I thoroughly enjoyed our informative and humorous guide - the stories and symbolism were what made it a walk through time, not the just the stones.
Our driver waited for us the entire time and sent us to the hotel (or other points of interest if we wish so). I find the entire experience smooth and enjoyable, and they did stick to their time table.

Very professional - Our host Ginny was fantastic! Such a lovely fun person and very knowledgeable! You can tell she switches her approach based on the needs of the guest which was great! Ginny also helped us find someone to do one final activity we had been hoping to do which was incredibly helpful and she followed it all the way to make sure it happened as planned and we had a good time.
We were unlucky with the weather so didn’t get views but that’s the risk of this kind of activity.
Only issue we had was Viator showing we could have pick up at our hotel but this didn’t match the tour operator approved pick ups. We managed a solution but definitely something to be fixed with aviator to avoid awkwardness.

Would def do this - The experience was amazing and the process was so seamless, 10/10 and our tour guide and driver were equally great. Only note is the experience says there's a tequila tasting after seeing the ruins but that wasn't something that was offered to us.
