Both guides were great,... - Both guides were great, Humberto spent most of the day with us. Extremely personable and easy to chat with, small group was great. We saw some sights, ate some excellent food, had chances to buy souvenirs, and got a feel for Tijuana. It felt very safe and was a lovely experience. The ONLY downside was the wait to get back into the US was insane, took us about 2 hours. Nothing they can do about that though.

TJ Walking Tour - We had a good time on our Intro to Mexico walking tour with Carlos. We had a small group which made it very intimate. We enjoyed the information that Carlos shared with us about TJ and its history. We learned about the tequila and mezcal. The tasting of different ones was fun and tasty. Going in and out at the border was very easy. Andres, our guide who picked us up on the USA side and walked us to the Mexico side to link up with Carlos. We had a great time and highly recommend the tour. We felt safe and had no issues.

Awesome Experience - Highly recommended for anyone hesitant about visiting Tijuana for the first time. Diego met us on the American side and guided us through the border crossing. Victor was waiting for us on the other side right where you exit the turnstile. Very easy. We had a great experience with Victor. He's local and very informative. I would feel very comfortable visiting Tijuana on my own now. AWESOME experience overall!!!! Thank you very much!!!!!

A great introduction to Mexico - I had a really good time on my tour - it was a great introduction to Mexico and really good as a solo female traveller. The other members of my group had to cancel so I ended up having a private tour with Carlos! Carlos was a fantastic guide - really great communication before the tour, he took me to some great local spots and told me all about the history and culture of downtown Tijuana. Thank you for sharing some of your favourite spots with me. 10/10 would recommend!

Exceptional - The knowledge and professionalism from Humberto was amazing to experience. It was the best decision we made, he took us to places that we wouldn’t experienced going alone. We felt secure, comfortable, and very happy with the experiences. Best food ever!

Safe and easy: recommended! - Very good! Marisol was an excellent guide and we had a good time. Food, transportation and tequila testing (!) was included. I travelled with two teenagers (17M, 13F) who had no problem with the walking involved. We were worried about security in Tijuana and the lines going back to the US. No problem. The line was about 60 minutes. We never felt unsafe at all.

Excelent in every way! - Carlos was a fabulous guide! He was very knowledgeable and helpful. His communication was clear and concise regarding where to meet, how to cross the border, and how to recognize him. I was with my mom (80) and MIL (73) and he modified his pace to match theirs. When there was extra time he brought us to extra places. He was friendly with many of the shop owners and people in the market. Tijuana was safe, clean, and enjoyable.

A day at Tijuana - The guide was very friendly and the trip was enjoyable. I felt safe as a solo female in the group setting. I met wonderful people traveled using the tour group. Tip: Be sure to bring a jacket and a hat. Be ready to deal with the length of time that you need to wait on the border on your way back into the U.S.
