Great day south of the border - From San Diego : Tijuana Guided Day Trip with Lunch our tour guide Tadeo Calles was excellent. It was fun, educational and felt very authentic to Tijuana. We enjoyed Tequila tasting, candy sampling, lunch, shopping and so much more. Highly recommended🙌

- Marisol our tour guide was amazing! She was friendly and patient! Enjoyed the group we were in! This trip is also great for solo travelers as well! Entering Mexico went well. Coming back to the United States took us two hours, but keep in mind the tour guide will make the border transitions smoothly by dropping you off safely at the border.

False advertisement and ghosted by company at the border - The listing and the company itself gave false information. I saved screenshots of them advertising that birth certificate and ID could be used for the day trip if you dont have a passport. I was rejected at the border and NO ONE from the company has responded to me since.
