A hot air balloon ride is an incredible experience. Imagine floating through the air in a giant balloon with beautiful sights all around. Do you need any more excuses to ride in a hot air balloon? We will provide you with all required information and recommendations for the most popular locations in the state of Mexico, conveniently located near the capital.

Aside from providing you with a unique perspective of your city or a new location, soaring in a balloon will make you feel like you are in a dream. You will experience a deep sense of tranquillity that we are confident you have never felt before.

That said, we will tell you more about the 2 areas from which you can take off and live one of the best experiences of your life, aboard a giant hot air balloon:

Where to take a hot air balloon tour in State of Mexico?

- Teotihuacan hot air balloon ride: Have you ever imagined flying over State of Mexico's most famous pyramids? We can assure you that it is doable. Yes, you can see them while soaring in a hot air balloon. On the outskirts of the archaeological zone, you'll find several airports where you can choose from many options to experience this incredible aerial adventure. You can fly in a shared balloon, where you can climb into the basket with other people and soar in the sky and is easier and cheaper. You can even have the same experience in private mode, where you can enjoy an exclusive flight with your group, couple, or family.

One thing we'd like to remind you is that the flight's direction or route is determined by the wind of the day. So the flight may be over the Pyramid of the Moon and the Sun or along the sides. However, you'll be treated to spectacular and unforgettable views. From above, you'll be able to see maguey, cactus, and other Teotihuacan-specific plant species.

- Hot Air Balloon in Tepotzotlan: Arcos del Sitio, located only 1 hour and 45 minutes from Mexico City, is another area in the state of Mexico where you can enjoy a relaxing hot air balloon flight. Here you will also find the possibility of a single lift if you are not yet convinced about flying or if you want to lose your fear of heights.

How many people can take part in the flight?

If you have made up your mind to take a flight, you can choose to share the flight with up to 6 other passengers or book a basket to enjoy a romantic flight as a couple. This place is recommended for the views you can get above the aqueduct known as Arcos del Sitio. The view is one to behold!

What service can I add to my balloon ride?

Once you've determined which of these two regions you want to visit for your balloon flight, you'll need to decide on the type, or whether you want a shared or private flight option. We have to mention this because there are endless possibilities and extra services you can add. For instance, we have packages in Teotihuacan for romantic marriage proposals or birthday celebrations. These include services like a bouquet of roses, a bottle of wine, a canvas with the message to be dedicated and even 1 night of accommodation in various hotels or cabins.

Another additional service usually included in your balloon flight package is breakfast after the flight. We recommend this because the flight takes place early in the morning, just before sunrise, and we are confident that you will not have eaten anything before landing, so it will be the first thing you want to do when you arrive.

Is transportation included?

Another factor to consider is transportation. In the case of Tepotzotlán, there are no options for getting to the airport. However, in the case of Teotihuacán, you can discover packages that include transportation from your hotel in or at meeting spots in Mexico City.

Whether you choose Tepotzotlán or Teotihuacán, the experience of flying in a hot air balloon will be unforgettable, and you will feel that every nerve you felt was worth it when you return to the ground. Dare to go up and offer your eyes a present with the most beautiful dawn in the state of Mexico.

Fly through the air and experience what it's like to float!
