Om denne aktiviteten

Vi drar ut av Mexico by og stopper på det arkeologiske funnstedet Teotihuacán-pyramidene, der guiden vil fortelle mer om den mystiske historien til dette hellige stedet. Når du går rundt på området, vil du se Månepyramiden, Calzada de los Muertos (De dødes vei) og Solpyramiden, som er det høyeste og mest spektakulære i området – det er 63 meter til toppen (og ja, vi går opp).
Etter å ha utforsket pyramidene, drar vi til en familiedrevet fabrikk/butikk som spesialiserer seg på lokale produkter. Vi vil lære om ‘obsidian’ – materialet som folket i Teotihuacán brukte til å lage verktøy, gudebilder og dekorasjoner, og du vil bli oppmuntret til å ta en slurk av en gammel, hellig drikk kalt pulque, som lages av hjertet av maguey (en type kaktus) – som enkelte mener er forgjengeren til tequila. I tillegg til disse perlene vil du finne syltetøy, søtsaker, krydrede slikkepinner og mange andre produkter laget av folk i området fra den endemiske vegetasjonen rundt dem, som nopal, xoconostle og tuna (en kaktusfrukt, ikke tunfisk!). Suvenirshopping har aldri vært så morsomt!
Når du har skjerpet apetitten med pyramideklatring og suvenirshopping, tar vi deg til en venns hus for en minneverdig middag. Du vil bli ønsket velkommen inn i det tradisjonelle hjemmet deres, der du kan prøve autentiske lokale smaker (familien driver en svært vellykket cateringvirksomhet, så du er i gode hender!) og oppleve tradisjonelle meksikanske middagstradisjoner. Dette er også en utmerket mulighet til å teste spanskkunnskapene dine!
Etter middag drar vi tilbake til Mexico by, glade, mette og avslappet etter en fantastisk dag med utforsking av livet utenfor den travle storbyen.

Arturo the driver was awesome! He'd show me little extra trees and such. Rodrigo was very well spoken (chingon!!) and had so much cool information to share. They were a deligtd. Bring layers. It's warm climbing the pyramids. It is a good hike. Wear comfy shoes. The vistas are outta this world. Be prepared for a long day. After Teohuatican, you have a few drinks see handmade obsidian, then a homemade dinner. I'm vegetarian. No problem. I had nopales with rice and horchata. I suggest leaving tips at these stops. Free food and drinks? It's amazing. I also tipped the driver and tour operator. 10 hours of friendliness and transport.

Ady is an amazing tour guide, she had answers for all the curious questions our group had apart from the knowledge about the history of the site. Later we visited a local obsidian artisan to learn more about it and pulque/mezxcal/tequilla/ cactus fruit liquor, our group had a lovely time. Then visited a local family home for a delicious dinner cooked just for us, as we got back to the city she was helpful on uber pickups/ways to reaching our hotels. I would 100 recommend this tour to everyone who wish to visit the pyrimads

This trip is totally worth it! My 21 year old son and I both enjoyed the entire experience! It's a long day, so pack plenty of water, sunscreen and get a good night's rest before hand! The pyramids are a definite bucket list activity, once in a lifetime. My son and I loved visiting the local family for some samples of tequila, mescal and pulca. The other family provided our dinner which was great! Our guide was Adi, she was awesome!!!!! All around worthwhile side trip :

The tour guide was great, explaining every structure we saw. The place is breathtaking but I would suggest to visit it early morning to avoid the sun and the crowds. The visit to the first family was totally worth it since it included a little tequila-mezcal-pulque tasting which was great. The dinner with the local family, you'd expect something more personal and traditional, but neither the dinner was personalized the family didn't even dinner with us, instead they just served the food or traditional beside of the salsa preparation, the actual dinner wasn't traditional Mexican food. Or maybe I just expected other menú.

Great tour! Our guide Rodrigo was really knowledgeable about the pyramids, and has excellent English and communication skills. We really enjoyed having dinner at the local family's house. This was a wonderful way to experience Mexico!

The best way to spend Thanksgiving!! Dress comfortably, bring a sweater, and a cap...atop the pyramids, it is very windy. Do not be fooled...the steps are quite steep and there is one rope for guidance. Trust and believe...if you don't know Jesus before reaching to top, you will get to know him on the decent!! The dinner with the local family...worth every bite and some!! The samples of vodka, the conversation with the locals....OMG!!!

Following a slightly delayed start, waiting on the arrival of other group members who had taken a morning tour elsewhere, our Pyramid adventure began in earnest. We piled into a comfortable, mini- bus and headed out of the city. Transport was meant to be on the metro but this was far preferable as it allowed our Guide, Nathan, to speak with us enroute to our destination- there was a separate driver. First stop was the Palacios de Tetitla - an archeological dig made significant by the paintings that were discovered. Nothing prepared us for the sight of the Temples/ Pyraminds of the Sun and Moon - magnificent! Those who wished to do so, climbed to the top of one or both of these impressive structures always with the careful guidance of our guide, Nathan. There are clean, modern toilet facilities at the site and be prepared to be approached by the many touts on site, selling everything from water, through silver jewel leery to animal noise makers. Be assured none of the latter market aggressively. It is wise to take a hat even in mid winter as the sun was blazing down upon us. Of course, you can purchase a hat from one of the many stalls leading to the main site for a very reasonable price. Our group was comprise of a majority of under 35's which made the Tequila and other luscious liquids tasting session a hoot. The family who offered this service were delightful, with the patriarch being especially knowledgeable about both Agave and Obsidian. A modest but tasty evening meal at a family residence provided a fitting finale to a memorable and diverse experience.

We had a great time with Rodriguez and Bene. Roy is the best. He was very knowledgeable and friendly and knew where all his group was at all times. He was very helpful in getting us all back to the best place for us. Our group enjoyed the tour to the shaman and the wonderful dinner prepared by the local family. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
