These are our facilities; if you did not book the full package, you must arrive at 6:00 a.m. If you booked the full package, we will pick you up before 5:00 a.m. Upon arrival, we will check you in, show a safety video, and you will have time to enjoy coffee and cookies.
The hot air balloon flight will begin and will last approximately 45 to 60 minutes, depending entirely on the weather. Please note that the pilot does not control the direction, as it is determined by the wind; they can only control the ascent and descent of the balloon. Remember that we will record your journey with a drone—don’t forget to wave!

A great flight with a very competent crew. The view of the mountains (Popo!) and the pyramids was spectacular. A really fun time, complete with a traditional bubbly toast! Ismael was our coordinator and Faniano our pilot, a great team!

About Mexico City
Mexico City is a vast, high-altitude capital built over the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan, rich in museums, murals, markets and outstanding food.
The Zócalo, one of the largest squares in the world, is framed by the Metropolitan Cathedral and the National Palace, where Diego Rivera's murals tell the story of Mexico. Beside them, the excavated Templo Mayor reveals the heart of the Aztec capital, and the Palacio de Bellas Artes, with its marble exterior and Art Deco interior, stands a short walk west.
Top-ranked sights in Mexico City: Teotihuacán, Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Frida Kahlo Museum (Museo Frida Kahlo).
