Best tour for Tijuana - Tabita was my local guide and she knew a lot of Tijuana. We went Tijuana arch, Avienida Revolucion, El mercado popo and enjoyed Tequilla tasting. It was super great tour and I will recommend this tour to my friends who are going to visit Tijuana

A lovely day out - We were met by Andres at Macdonald's at the border who took us over the border to meet our guide Humberto. Transport to the centre of Tijuana was by bus and then we had a really interesting tour around the historic centre. Food was provided and the tacos were excellent - nothing like shop bought ! . After some free time we were taken to a craft beer bar where we sampled a flight of beers. I have to say that Humberto has a real passion for Mexico and it's history which came across throughout the day. Try the flight of beer - you'll thank me

Who knew Tijuana was so great! - My wife and I took this tour with Carlos in September 2025. We were fotunate enough to be the only 2 on the tour. Carlos could not have been better. He is very personable, knowledgeable, and funny. He made us feel right at home, as this is a tour that I don't know how comfortable I would have been on our own. The food, the shops, the tequila, and the company were the best. Tijuana gets a bad rap, but is actually a great place to start as far as a Mexican history lesson. I would highly recommend this tour and Carlos as well.

Great job on showing us around the city. Would highly recommend. - I’m glad that I took this tour with Carlos. We went to see places that I couldn’t be able to explore my own. It was an amazing experience and I probably book another trip next coming week :)

A unforgettable day! - Wow! What a tour! Carlos was the best guide we could have asked for, giving us an unforgettable experience, from trying typical foods to seeing the highlights of downtown Tijuana, the tour was memorable and so fun. We felt very safe and the crossing both ways was no more than 15 mins.
Can’t recommend the tour and especially Carlos enough!

Day in Tijuana - We booked the 5 hour tour. Carlos was our guide for the day. We had such an amazing day, he had a great knowledge of the city and shared lots of info.
Carlos took us to a few tasting sessions.....more, sweets, tequila plus lunch and souvenir shopping, and a lovely final stop off for a margarita, a really nice touch.
Would totally recommend this day, we were walked right up to the border crossing both ways, checked we got across ok on the way back. Just enough exploring, lots of experiences and just an overall great day.
Thank you, Carlos.

Great trip to get some insights into Tijuana - Overall the trip was very good and the guide Tabitha was friendly, informative and made the day fun. The start was not great as we were not met at the US side of the border but received a text to say we had to make our own way across. This would have been ok if we had been forewarned.

Beautiful Mexican day with tiring return - A day of introduction to Mexico. Nice guide Victor in English, excellent tequila tasting and good typical lunch. The part that I believe needs to be improved on cross-border return for Europeans. About 3 hours in a row to get back to the USA. This is also an experience but you should expect something
