Is the private flight good for a marriage proposal or anniversary?

Yes, it is our most popular choice for romantic occasions. Because the basket is exclusively yours, there is privacy for the moment and room for photos. If you are planning a proposal, message us in advance and we will help arrange it discreetly so it goes perfectly above the pyramids at sunrise.

What time does the private flight take off?

Private flights depart daily at sunrise. Arrival is around 5:30 a.m. (operating window 5:30 to 11:00 a.m.), because morning winds are calmest and the light over the pyramids is at its most beautiful, perfect for romantic photos.

Why fly private over Teotihuacan

There are moments worth keeping to yourselves. A private balloon over Teotihuacan gives you the whole basket — no strangers, no small talk, just the two of you watching the first light spill across the Avenue of the Dead and the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon.

It is, simply, the most romantic way to see this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Couples choose the private flight for anniversaries, honeymoons, marriage proposals and milestone birthdays — because it turns a once-in-a-lifetime sunrise into something genuinely intimate. Your pilot can give you space to take photos, share the silence, and pop the question at altitude if that's the plan. Tell us in advance and we'll help quietly arrange the moment.

We Fly Teotihuacan has flown this valley for 15+ years with friendly, AFAC-certified pilots who put your safety and your privacy first.

Our weather & cancellation policy

Free weather reschedule

Ballooning depends on the weather. If we can't fly safely on your date, we reschedule your private flight to another sunrise at no extra cost — no fine print.

Insurance included

Every passenger is covered by travel insurance included in the price. Safety protocols and AFAC-certified pilots on every flight.

Clear cancellation

Need to change plans? Contact us in advance and we'll reschedule or arrange your cancellation. We surface this up front — we never bury it in fine print.

What to wear & bring

Do bring / wear

A light jacket or sweater (mornings are cool)
Long pants and closed, flat shoes
Sunscreen, sunglasses and a cap
A camera or phone with a strap for your private photos
A valid government-issued photo ID — you show it at check-in together with your booking QR code, and it is what lets us register you on the travel insurance; without it you cannot board, though you can reschedule your flight for another date, subject to availability and our date-change policy. Minors don't need their own: a parent or legal guardian identifies and signs for them.

Please avoid

Skirts or dresses
Sandals, heels or open shoes
Loose scarves or hats without a strap
Bulky luggage or large bags
Drones (not allowed at the balloon port)
