Hot Air Balloon Rides Tequesquitengo 16 prices and offers 2025

A hot air balloon ride is an experience that everyone should have at least once in their lifetime. Despite being labelled an 'extreme sport' by some, soaring in the sky on a hot air balloon will give you a sense of peace and allow you to witness stunning vistas. Don't just take our word for it and try it for yourself! You will see that we are not exaggerating after your memorable flight!

To experience this incredible moment, we strongly recommend one of our favourite places - Tequesquitengo, in the state of Morelos. It is one of the best sites to appreciate the natural beauty from the highest point, and it will only take you an hour and a half to go there if you live in Mexico City... it will be worth the journey!

Even though Morelos is a small municipality, we must inform you that you have the option of flying from two separate locations surrounding the lake.

Where to ride in a hot air balloon in Tequesquitengo?

- Balloon tour from the north side of the lake: Just a few minutes from the Autocinema Hangar is one of the most popular airports for boarding a basket and flying in a giant balloon over the calm waters of Morelos' most famous lagoon. We must mention that you can book private balloon flights, shared basket flights, or group hot air balloon excursions from this location (at more affordable prices, of course). Breakfast, videos and images, and even a toast are available as extra amenities.

- Hot air balloon tour from the south zone: You will have another take-off option at the Tequesquitengo Lake's opposite end. This region is only 5 minutes from the Faro del Agua lighthouse and is easily accessible from the Cuernavaca-Chilpancingo route. You can also fly from this point and get a panoramic view of not only the lagoon, but also the municipality's surrounding territory. If you want a more exclusive experience, this airport offers private basket flights for couples and groups of only four persons. Fly uniquely!

Flying in Tequesquitengo is a fantastic idea because of the comfortable climate and beauty of the lake. When you fly over the lake, the reflection it casts on the water will leave you amazed. Don't be surprised if you see athletes practising from early in the morning from the heights, as the lake is a popular spot for surfing, water skiing, wakeboarding, and even sailing.

Enjoy the spectacular panoramic view, which includes beach clubs, large vacation estates, and restaurants and pubs along the lagoon's shore. After your balloon ride, pay a visit to one of them. Another advantage of visiting this lovely city in Morelos is that balloon rides are available Monday through Sunday, with increased demand on weekends, so we recommend booking ahead.

On the other hand, it is not required to celebrate anything special to take a hot air balloon ride, although that is the case. Packages that include an individual birthday cake or a congratulatory canvas are available on both the north and south sides of the lake. This similar experience lends itself to proposing to that person with whom you've been enjoying the happiest moments of your life for a long time. You'll find packages that include a bouquet of roses or a box of chocolates and sparkling wine to toast the occasion.

Flying in a hot air balloon allows you to see the most amazing and gorgeous sunrises, as well as experience a different kind of silence as you reach the highest point and touch the clouds.
