What you will do
Check-in for the flight is at 5:30 a.m. That’s the key detail of this package: anyone leaving from Mexico City has to hit the road around 3:30 a.m. to arrive on time. You arrive half-asleep, after a two-hour drive and without having slept well the night before.
With this package, you’ll spend the night before in Teotihuacán. The ride from the hotel to the hot air balloon launch site takes 15 minutes: you’ll take off around 5:10 a.m., having had several more hours of sleep and without having to drive at night. The flight is the same shared flight lasting 45 to 60 minutes over the Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon, with the same certified crew, the same toast, and the same breakfast buffet upon landing.
You'll have the previous afternoon free to explore the area at your own pace. It's the difference between just passing through Teotihuacán and actually being in Teotihuacán. Check out our guide on what to pack to help you get ready.
