Pick up at 2pm at Fifth & C in Downtown San Diego. Tour starts by 3pm at the San Ysidro International Border.
We will follow the ruta artesanal, which starts at Garita Chaparral towards the Arco Monumental, along Revolucion and finish on 8th Avenue. We'll be doing stops for sightseeing, local beer tasting, and Tijuana's bites. We'll check out what really is happening in the Tijuana, none of the typical tourist traps. Finally, your guide will load you on a taxi de ruta, head to the border (cost: 12 pesos or $1), walk you to the border, and send you on your way to San Diego.
Again: we pick you up in Downtown/San Ysidro and drop you off at the border, but we do not cross back with you. Your guides are knowledgeable locals that will fill in the gaps of Tijuana's rich, infamous, and transformative history. Our mission is to change foreigner's perception of this city. Visitors are encouraged to ask questions. The narrative is intended to give the visitor an understanding of Tijuana's current course and the various causes.
