This was a very enjoyable tour. Andrés on the San Diego side provided information on the procedures for joining the tour with Carlos on the Tijuana side. I would suggest adding the phrase “Meet in front of the McDonalds” on the San Diego side.
Carlos gave a very informative and fun-facts tour of Tijuana. We visited iconic historical places in town, including markets, bars, and cathedral. A couple of common and unusual alcoholic tastings were included. We enjoyed a lunch at a hidden restaurant that was definitely not on any tourist list, but the food was outstanding and definitely worth a return visit. All in all, it was a wonderful way to spend some time in Tijuana with very knowledgeable advice from a Tijuana native like Carlos, a very personable guide.

Great experience that I would recommend everyone. Our guide Mari was lovely. She ensure we had made a relaxing and enjoyable experience.

It was a good introduction to Tijuana and there were some fun activities scheduled. The tour guide Marissa was very nice. We did it cause we were a bit scared of crossing over into Tijuana and it made us comfortable if we ever do it on our own.

I really enjoyed the tour. Our tour guide Tadeo, was knowledgeable and guided us through with no issues. Learning about the culture, historical sites, and seeing the various shops was such an amazing experience.
