We took this tour on Christmas, and Marisol was absolutely the highlight of the experience. She was incredibly sweet, welcoming, and knowledgeable, and she truly did her best to make the day enjoyable despite the holiday limitations. Her warmth and positive attitude made us feel comfortable and taken care of the entire time. Because it was Christmas, many places were closed, and unfortunately we didn’t get to do or see as much as we had hoped. I do wish the company had been a bit more proactive in suggesting alternative places or backup options given the holiday, as that would have helped make the experience feel more complete. That said, Marisol really carried the tour and handled the situation with grace and kindness. She’s a wonderful guide, and we appreciated her efforts and genuine care. I would recommend the tour especially with Marisol as your guide, but I’d suggest booking on a non-holiday to get the full experience.
This was an absolutely fantastic tour! I signed up for the Intro to Mexico experience and wasn’t quite sure what to expect but it exceeded every expectation. Carlos was our guide, and he was wonderful, warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. He guided us through Tijuana with ease, sharing both the city’s history and his own childhood memories, which made everything come alive. He even took photos for us at key spots and seemed to know everyone along the way, which added a personal and comforting touch. Carlos had a great sense of what each person on the tour might enjoy and tailored the experience so everyone had a great time. I would absolutely choose this company again!
Amazing Taco tour with Carlos! Absolutely fantastic and i can’t recommend this enough. Carlos is so passionate about Tijuana and he brought me to the best places for tacos. Had a great variety of food and a cheeky pint to end the day. He’s super friendly, really nice and the best person to be a tijuana advocate. I felt incredibly safe throughout my entire trip. With regards to border crossing, i went on a monday and it was 10 minutes max across the border from Tijuana back to SD. will be back for their coffee and beer tours
Umberto, our guide, was incredible! This was the highlight of our trip to San Diego! I can't believe how much we learned and what an amazing time we had! I also had no idea how easy it is to go in and out of Mexico! The whole experience was amazing! Now we want to go see Baja with our kids! Thank you Umberto and team for opening our eyes to a wonderful new world that we had no idea existed!
I had the pleasure to join the walking tour from San Diego to Tijuana last Saturday. I booked this tour thru Trip.com. The guide on the US side arrived early and our group had only 7 people which was great. He helped us to take pictures and guided us on how to cross the border. On the Mexico side, we met with our lovely guide Tabitha. We took a shuttle to the downtown. Tabitha is knowledgeable and gave us some history of the area, took us to a few landmarks, and several street markets and stores. The package included a lunch and 2 tequila tastings. It was a wonderful experience. Since I was visiting alone, I felt very safe and comfortable in this fun group with a local guide. Tabitha is very nice and attentive. She also sent us the pictures she took for us after the trip. I had a blast!!
