Great cable car ride! Definitely go, and even more so if you happen to have your kids around. (They’ll love it - just as much as you will!) The single ride is 30 pesos, the return ticket costs 50 pesos. Check out the current opening times which may change again based on COVID restrictions! Ideally, choose the return ticket, and try to make it just around sunset. In case you’d manage well, you can take the first ride when there is still some light, and the second so that you’d see Puebla at night.

From this cabel line we had a beautiful view over Puebla and the monument. We could this cable line arrive easily by bus. It is 500m long. So its maybe a bit short but the price is still okay. On both stations is a souvenir shop. A guide comes with you and explain view.

You can have a great view of the City of Puebla from this cable car and its station, a bi-lingual guide (Spanish and English) will accompany you and explain the wonderful views below. I would suggest to go there a little earlier before dusk/sunset to take in the magnificent view of the city skyline and the Popocatépetl Volcano. I also would prefer to ride from the park side, going toward Calle 2 Norte, and buy just one-way ticket, as the scenery on the return ride is OK, there is really no need to buy round-trip tickets. Any how, it's a wonderful and enjoyable ride!

It's ok but not worth all the cumbersome process, queues, lines and wait you MUST go through before you get to ride the teleférico. 2 queues by main entrance; then you go to the 1st sitting area to wait before you get to purchase 1 way ride for 30 pesos or round trip for 50. Then you go to the 2nd sitting area to wait for the elevator to ride up the loading area. Once up and before riding you get your picture taken for purchase after the ride (expect to pay anywhere from 100 to 200 pesos depending on package you choose). If you have a round trip you will get off the teleférico and get in line to wait to ride back.
So my piece of advise is to visit either on a weekday or be EXTRA patient to deal with all of the extra and long process

Don't waste your time here, 1 hour wait, and a 3 min ride, not even worth the way back. Better take a walk instead

It's a short ride in a hanging wagon, accessible price, nice view. Try to visit this place in labor days, if for some reason you reach this place during the weekend it may be probably crowded, which means it will take a long time for you to take the ride. Try to avoid crowds.
