What people are saying about State of Mexico

Everything was very cool, but the food there is very bad, mostly fast food. Also expect big queues, or you can buy FlashPas (Fast Queuing) for an additional fee - it costs $250 (Mex. Pes) for 1 person for 10 rides. This is more than enough. But FlashPass doesn't work everywhere, they have $500 VIP bracelets (Mex. pesos). If you want to go to the water attractions, then you will need to take a change of shoes and clothes. 2 attractions (bungee, catapult) are not included in the price.

Great experience - Highly recommend! Our guide Leonardo was excellent. Transport out and back was comfortable and the site itself is breathtaking. The small group tasting after was delicious and informative. As others have said, the meet-up location can be tricky to locate. I recommend using the gps location in the app. It directs you to a sidewalk location as of Oct. ‘22.

The pyramids were wonderful to see. Our guide Carla was amazing. Very knowledgeable and helpful. We would recommend this tour to all of our friends

Couldn’t find tickets anywhere, and then GetYourGuide popped up with some availability. I could not have been happier with my experience!!

great communication, did let me buy the ticket for the next day despite long waiting time according to official Frida site.
