We visited the Pyramids on Friday July 18, 2025. The bus ride was excellent, the tour guides were both awesome. One of our best tours ever. The lunch stop with Mezcal & Tequila tasting and education, along with the Obsidian demonstration was so much fun. We had a great time. Thanks for making it such a wonderful all around experience.

This tour was great! The length of time was perfect, and our guide, Alan, was exceptional. He was very clear, had great information, and made sure our group was learning throughout the tour. I took a ton away from the experience because of him. I'd highly recommend asking for Alan as your guide in the future!
