The story of Happy Fly

Happy Fly was born on June 12, 2016, when Captain Santiago Torres had an idea that would change the skies of Teotihuacán forever: what if hot air balloons didn't just fly, but also made people smile?

That's how the first emoji-shaped balloons in Mexico came to be. What started with a single 😄 balloon and a dream is now a fleet of 6 emoji balloons that have become the most photographed icon of the Teotihuacán Valley.

Each balloon has its own personality, its own story, and its own fans. From couples who've gotten engaged in the air with the 😍 balloon, to entire families celebrating birthdays flying with the 🥳, our balloons are more than vehicles — they're happiness generators.

With over 10 years of experience and more than 10,000 flights completed, our commitment remains the same: to offer the safest, most fun, and most memorable experience above the Teotihuacán pyramids.
