I freaked when you said $200 for a room; I would have thought 40-50 at most.

Another great walk! Chears!

I had a Honda CBX in 1979! LOL It was fast! Not quite like your trip! Thanks for the video!

Pretty busy for midnight, when I crossed there was only two other people using CBX. Uber was $30 to SD Amtrak taxi was $60 , had to bite the bullet to make my train on time

wow this is easier than i thought. great video

I love videos like these. It's great to see videos on what to do in a country, but stuff like this is golden because it's so rare to find info on it. And especially if I'm going to be landing somewhere tired and jet-lagged, I want to know ahead of time what process I'm going to face for getting to the hotel so I can be prepared.

Great video, thank you!

Great!

Thks...great 👍!

Loving the Mexico content Jeff!

It's like culture shock when you cross into Mexico from the San Diego area. No other way to describe it!

Overall the process really is quite easy.

Funny story: Took my kids to San Diego Easter weekend this year (never been, and didn't know San Diego was that close to Tijuana. My friend told us about a mall, that we googled and drove too. while driving the signs are starting to count down, that it was 3 more exit till the Mexico Border.. then 2 more exits. My kids and I are freaking out.. and screaming like crazy ppl. the exit for the mall was the very last exit. kmsl.. We laughed so hard!!! it was so funny. I always think of that now.

Oh yeah I did that before. I just wanted to go to the border and the signs kept saying intl border but we could not find the exit. We actually ended up crossing the border in our car on accident and had to figure out how to get back across. Waiting 3 hours in a line… I know exactly what you are saying.

Nice and informative video. Thanks for sharing! Didn't you get FMM card when you cross from SD to TJ? They issue tourists FMM cards upon entry to Mexico. I am surprised to learn that you had to fill out FMM card at CBX because I thought you would have already been issued an FMM upon your entry to Mexico. You just need to return that FMM card to Mexican Immigration at CBX when you leave Mexico. I am a little bit confused with the FMM form filling at CBX.

Thank you for the walkthrough🙏. Cali to Mexico isn't as rough as I thought. Not sure if you mentioned it, but this is on a weekday right?

Do I need FMM form if I'm just walking over to visit for the day?

CBX (Cross Border Xpress) is the service that allows you to cross the border between Tijuana and San Diego more quickly and safely. Important: due to government restrictions, inbound land border crossings from Mexico to the US are limited to essential travel.

I'm UK living in Mexico but need to cross border to refresh my VISA. How long do I need to wait on USA side before I can walk back into Mexico?

I'm planning to fly into Tijuana next month... at CBX did they ask you for negative covid test?

Thanks going there this coming Friday. Should I take my passport to make things easier?

I just took greyhound bus from Cleveland Ohio to San diego

Do you know how to get to the train station from San Diego airport?

Is border open? I heard only essential allow to enter?

Zona Centro ❤

What did you think was more interesting? Crossing border into Mexico or coming back into the United States through the CBX at Otay Mesa?

Dude, you don't need a compass card and you only needed to pay $2.50 for one way fair on the trolley. The $6 pass is if you gonna ride all day back and forth. Paying $200 bucks for a hotel room in Tijuana is highway robbery. I'm sure you could have gotten a 4 star hotel room for $60 bucks or so without even trying. I live in San Diego. How much you pay for the Taxi to the airport? you paying tourist prices.
