Who it's for

Visitors staying in Mexico City with no car, who don't want to drive at 4 a.m. or arrange a taxi at dawn. Ideal for international travelers, couples and small groups who want the whole morning handled door-to-door.

How much

The flight with round-trip transport from Mexico City is $189 USD ($2,890 MXN) per person — the drive there and back is included in that price. Prefer to make your own way? A flight-only shared basket starts at $130 USD ($1,990 MXN), a birthday flight is $150 USD ($2,300 MXN) and a private flight is $245 USD ($3,750 MXN). No OTA fees, free weather rescheduling.

How it works

We collect you at your own hotel before dawn, drive the 45 minutes to the balloon port, serve coffee and check you in, fly you 45–60 minutes at first light, then a toast (a Mexican buffet breakfast is included in the other packages and optional on the Shared flight) — and drive you back to Mexico City. Daily, at sunrise.

Why book the flight and transport together

A Teotihuacan balloon launches at first light, which means leaving Mexico City in the dark — somewhere around 4:00 to 4:30 a.m. Finding a taxi at that hour, or driving an unfamiliar route half-asleep, is exactly how travelers miss their flight window.

Booking the flight with round-trip transport removes every one of those risks. You meet our driver at the Angel de la Independencia on Paseo de la Reforma — a landmark every taxi and rideshare knows — and we handle the rest: the 45-minute drive out, your sunrise flight over the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon, breakfast (included in the other packages, optional on the Shared flight), and the ride back to the city. No car rental, no parking, no pre-dawn navigation, no risk of arriving late.

Because you book direct with We Fly Teotihuacan, you also skip the OTA markup that resellers add, and you get free weather rescheduling and a real human on WhatsApp if your plans change.

Flight + transport — frequently asked questions

Yes. You can book the sunrise balloon flight and round-trip transport from Mexico City as one package. We pick you up at your hotel before dawn, at no extra cost within 4 km of the Angel de la Independencia, drive the 45 minutes to the balloon port, fly you over the pyramids and bring you back. The flight with round-trip transport is $189 USD ($2,890 MXN) per person, with the drive there and back included.

Pickup is at the Angel de la Independencia on Paseo de la Reforma — a central landmark any taxi or rideshare can reach from your hotel. From there the balloon port near Teotihuacan is about a 45-minute drive, and we bring you back to the same point after breakfast.

Because balloons fly at sunrise, pickup is early — generally around 4:00 to 4:30 a.m. — so you reach the We Fly Teotihuacan reception for check-in by about 5:30 a.m. (operating window 5:30–11:00 a.m.). We confirm your exact pickup time when you book.

The flight with round-trip transport from Mexico City is $189 USD ($2,890 MXN) per person and transport is included in that price — nothing extra to quote. Flight-only options: a shared basket from $130 USD ($1,990 MXN), a birthday flight $150 USD ($2,300 MXN), a private flight $245 USD ($3,750 MXN), each with transport available as an optional add-on. Booking direct means no OTA fees and free weather rescheduling.

You don't need a car — that's the point of the transport add-on. If you'd rather drive yourself, the balloon port is about 45 minutes from central Mexico City and there's free parking on site; just aim to arrive by around 6:00 a.m. Either way you get the same flight and honor toast; a Mexican buffet breakfast is included in the other packages and is an optional add-on on the Shared flight.

We only fly when it's safe. If the weather doesn't cooperate on your date, we reschedule your flight to another sunrise for free — including your transport — with no extra cost and no hidden fees. That's one more reason to book direct.
