★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's completely mind boggling the immense size of this special place. You are no longer allowed to climb the pyramids. I didn't find that a bother. There is so much to see. There weren't nearly as many souvenir sales people here like there are at some of the other sites in Mexico. I really enjoyed the experience. This sacred place is a must see!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ While the pyramids are obviously amazing the management of the site isn't. I'm sure they have had a massive drop in income over the past 2 years due to Covid19 but a lot of places have taken the opportunity to tidy things up. Poor, sun bleached, unreadable signage, closed museum, a lot of other buildings closed and lots of areas fenced off. You couldn't climb a pyramid either.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Teotihuacán is an essential if you are in the Mexico City area for more than 5 days. Yes, it's quite a drive, but you WILL NOT regret it. The archeological site of Teotihuacan is impressive to say the least. Guides are not only recommended but (IMO) essential. You will learn 10x more with one than without. Don't buy any souvenirs without bartering, especially if you're buying more than one. It's important to remember to bring bottled water, hats and sunscreen as buying this on site may be more expensive. On any account, you will not regret visiting Teotihuacan... the Teotihuacan-gods will thank you and bless you for your patronage ?

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An incredible place to visit - unbelievable how well preserved these thousands of year old ruins are. I'd recommend a tour (private if possible) so you can get the best understanding of everything thats there. Also do you don't spend too much time being lost and looking for things, it's easy to miss important sites i.e the houses within houses

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really great place to visit. Bring appropriate attire because you will walk a lot and it’s hot! I’m not sure if they had actual restrooms. I only saw port-a-potties

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great historical monument with so much history behind it. Recommend to go earlier in the morning as they open as it's gets very hot and hard to walk the distances. Carry water with you and a hat for sure.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Is just breathtaking and beyond words. Due to Covid health risks some places are temporarily closed, such as going up the pyramids. Yet, just looking at the temples of our past was incredible. Food, transportation and entertainment is guaranteed.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A must see for any visitor to Mexico City. Spectacular in every way possible. Could not limb at our time of visit due to covis, but absolutely worth it. This is a critical piece of Mexican history that provides tremendous insight to their broader national identity. And the Museum is very through and well thought out.
