It was a good trip. Unfortunately, not all itenary items were covered. The Plaza de Tres Culturas was limited to a quick glace over the fence, the venue is closed for Covid. The Alcoman tour was canceled all together. The main objective, Teotihuacan visit was good. Visit to an obsydian workshop was interesting. Shop offered very nice pieces, but the pricing was way, way to high. All together it was a nice trip, well timed and quite comfortable.

I chose this activity because it was one of the shorter activities that seemed to focus on the pyramids (or temples), and it turned out to be exactly that. After pick up at the hotel, we made a brief stop to the Plaza de las Tres Culturas and then directly to Teotihuacán. The guide, Eduardo, was very knowledgeable and charismatic. He made the transition seamlessly between English and Spanish for the entire day, which was very helpful. I would definitely recommend this tour. Helpful tip - the ticket options made it seem as though the lunch stop was optional so I did not purchase a ticket that included lunch. However, the bus made a lunch stop for everyone anyway (even if you did not have lunch included), and there we paid cash for the buffet. Just something to consider when purchasing the ticket.
