100% Private Tour in Teotihuacán Pyramids from Mexico City

My friends and I are extremely satisfied with the Epic Tour! The owner, Andrew has made our vacation the best trip in Mexico City! The service and the responses of this travel agency to be excellent! A definitely 5 stars from the start!
Oscar, our main tour guide has also been an amazing guide! His knowledge of the history is wonderful and very informative! I’ll definitely book more travels with Epic Journey again!
Highly recommended!

Andrew Xavi, the owner of Epic Journeys was helpful, professional, and prompt. This was a customized tour for the two of us to go to Tula as well as Teotihuacan in the same day. Ruben, our guide (and driver) was excellent. He was helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and consistently cheerful throughout the long day and traffic (not so bad once you get out of Mexico City). Highly recommend.

Ari was fantastic! He customized the tour itinerary to accommodate our interests and gave us great information about both CDMX and the history behind the pyramids. We had a wonderful time and Ari kept making sure that we were comfortable and enjoying the tour. He was very friendly and we enjoyed talking with him throughout the car ride and tour. It was the perfect half day length as well - 10/10 recommend!

Oscar accommodated our unique pickup and drop off requests and demonstrated a passion for the tour that was infectious. Would strongly recommend.

Well organized, highly educational trip to one of Mexico City’s must-see historical sights. Our guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant, making for a great day.

Good points:
Transportation was on time and efficient, if a little shabby.
The guide was a nice person.
Bad points:
The guide was shy and incompetent. He spoke too softly. When picking us up he made no effort to connect to his clients. We had to walk up and ask him if he was the guide and ask for his name.
We had asked for an English speaking guide. He barely could do so. He regularly consulted his phone for translation of even simple things. Luckily we had a person who speaks Spanish in our group who could also help. For instance, to translate something as simple as"animales salvajes"(wild animals). Maybe he was embarrassed about his incompetence and that made him speak too softly.
We saw other English speaking guides at work, who led their groups to important pieces in the museum and were giving clear and enthusiastic explanations. None of that happened to us. Our guide would run ahead, read the comments provided by the museum and try to say the same thing in English, frantically looking up words on his phone.
He was blatantly incorrect about some things. Examples: He claimed quetzal birds were brought from Peru. When we pointed out to him that the bird is native to Southern Mexico and Central America, he said "well, sure, Guatemala, Peru, far south from here". Sense of geography?
He claimed that human sacrifice only took place at the pyramid of Quetzalcoatl. This, again, is blatantly incorrect (see ample publications by leading Mexican archeologists).
Let us note again that he was a nice guy, his intentions were good but he is in need of thorough training in English and knowledge about Teotihuacan to be able to function as an acceptable guide. Now, the highlight he could offer was the nice paleta stand near the pyramid of the moon
All in all, because of the guide, the excursion fell far short from what was promised and in this form was a sham, not worth the considerable cost. We could have contracted an Uber for the day and have self-guided for a lot less.

An absolut must if in Mexico City, an impressive site.
The guide, Ruben, was amazing, very knowledgeable and nice. Thanks for a great experience.

Reuben was an outstanding tour guide for the personalized tour of the pyramids at Teotihuacan. He is very knowledgable about the site and has a true passion for teaching about Teotihuacano culture. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an informative day trip to the Pyramids

Our experience with this tour wasn’t the greatest. It was the very first time our guide was giving this specific tour and he was assigned to it the day before. That meant that he was completely un-prepared and he knew almost nothing about the history of the site. It was very frustrating because we saw all the other tours spending time in front of each monument and learn about it and our guide was just taking pictures of us. He was a very nice person, the pick up was smooth and the journey there was very pleasant, however we were there to discover the culture and history and we didn’t get any of that. If going back to mexico we won’t take this agency anymore and we won’t recommend it.
The fault here is of the agency who gave a very short notice to a very inexperienced guy. They clearly went overbooking and wanted to make more money.

I had a wonderful experience with Reuben as my tour guide around the Pyramids. He picked me up from my hotel in downtown and drove me the 1.5 hours out to the archaeological district. It was immediately evident that Reuben had a passion for teaching about the life of the Teotihuacános. I learned so much, and truly appreciated the great conversation and excellent tour. Highly recommend

We had an amazing time on our trip to Teotihuacán with Ruben! He was super knowledgeable about the site, very kind and personable, spoke great English, and had a wonderful vibe. His passion for the history of the place was clearly very genuine and overall our visit was a major highlight of our 9 days in CDMX. Coordination with Epic Journey was very easy and we even booked a different tour with them later in the week, since our first experience was so awesome. They were able to accommodate our second (fairly last-minute) tour request via WhatsApp, were responsive even late in the evening, and everything was handled seamlessly. Both tours felt like we were hanging out with a local friend rather than on a pre-packaged experience!

Omar was a great tour guide. He asked how we wanted to see the pyramids and gave us time to roam independently and he did not rush us through the agenda. He was a wealth of information about the Teotihuacan pyramids. He provided us with water and snacks, encouraged us to visit the museum (which was a gem) and chatted with us about life in Mexico.

Diego was a wonderful guide and driver. He had knowledge and explained the pyramids and the cultures well.

The tour was amazing! Ruben was very informative and very attentive to us. The pyramids were absolutely a must see and going early in the morning was a great idea to miss most of the crowds

Our tour guide Victor was excellent! Very knowledgeable and attentive. Drive was smooth, we saw the pyramid sites and a small museum that has some of the murals. Really great tour with young kids.

We had an amazing trip to visit the Pyramids. Our guide Victor was phenomenal. He picked us up from our hotel in a comfortable van. He had water and snacks for us. He had immense knowledge about the pyramids and was able to show us around in an efficient yet informative manner. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Highly recommend it!

We booked this trip from Mexico City to visit the pyramids. Our guide Victor picked us up from our hotel in a comfortable van. He brought water and snacks which was great especially with kids. At the pyramids, he was able to give us a full history and explained the significance of the pyramids and surrounding artifacts. Overall, this trip was amazing and I would not hesitate to book another trip with Victor and his company.
