Thank you Tadeo! - Tadeo was a great tour guide! We had a great, leisurely-paced day getting some history and seeing some art as well as visiting the sites and markets. Our lunch was casual but very good. We would have never found this family-run restaurant without our tour guide. I had a great prior experience on another tour with Tadeo and would highly recommend him and the company.

Brilliant Border Tour with Fantastic Guide - Sara was a brilliant guide from start to finish. Great fun and showed us around with lots of different experiences. She arranged a street band to come and play a song for a birthday girl in our group. And then she went off piste and had Taco’s on the street. Best Taco ever. All in all a superb day out and well worth doing. Even better if you can get Sara.

Tijuana with Carlos - Carlos was incredible! he made the whole day fantastic. We saw all his favorite spots and all the greatest highlights of Tijuana. He was extremely communicative and kept in touch til the minute we met up with him, all the way til we were back at our own hotel in CA. Highly recommend the fun adventure! Beware the wait to get back into the US! maybe avoid US holidays as there was a huge wait to get back in on Labor Day. Carlos found us a short cut and was able to get us on a bus to cross for a small fee, that was a much, much shorter wait! Thank you again Carlos!!

Visit to Tijuana - We had a great time visiting Tijuana with our tour guide Mr. Tadeo Calles, who was like a friend from long time ago, he makes us feel like we are in good hands, he is very knowledgeable about the history of the city. We enjoyed the food, the atmosphere, the shopping and every moment at Tijuana. I recommend this tour to everyone who likes to see a taste of Mexico.

Excellent tour! - I would highly recommend this tour. Our guide, Tadeo, was very knowledgeable about the history of the city. The length of the tour was perfect for a walking tour. I was skeptical since Tijuana has had a bad rep in the past. I felt safe and our guide stayed with us from the time we crossed the border until he put us in the line to go back.

Extremely pleased - Carlos was fantastic! We saw all the parts of Tijuana, tasted many things, had a great lunch, and they were super efficient. I didn’t feel rushed at any point and there were even some extras on the trip like getting to tour the original Caesar salad restaurant. Overall a really great trip and lots of good memories!

Good but could be better. - We had a great day exploring with Tadeo, really enjoyed it. Our only issue was the length of time it took to cross the border back home; nearly 3 hours! The tour didn't start until 10.30 & the guide was also sadly late. My suggestion is start the tour earlier, around 9am. The time to recross is out of the company's control but if it finishes around 2-3pm instead of 4.30, you aren't getting home so late. Makes a very long tiring day & ruins the fun had.
