China 69
12-06-10, 05:41
I have not been to Tijuana in 3 years. I used to be a regular, I would go every 1-2 weeks. Back then I was getting a lot of bad experiences and only a few good ones. So I quit going. Been a while and I was feeling adventurous so I decided to go and spend the whole weekend there. I went friday night and crossed the border at 11pm, and walked to the Zona Norte. I *never* take a taxi, always walk, any time of day or night. The most dangerous part is probably the bridge over the drainage canal. There used to be cops posted at both sides but this time there were no cops. I was a little nervous but there were ~10 other people on the bridge so I didn't feel like I was in danger. On the whole 15 minute walk to the arch I only saw 2 cops. They spotted me and I was sure they were gonna stop me and search me like they always used to but they ignored me.
I would probably change my strategy now and not walk it alone after midnite since there seem to be less cops now.

I checked into Hotel Cascadas, single room $35. The room was nice but there was no hot water, no heat, and no sheets between the bed and the bedspread (which was probably covered in cum stains).
Went directly to Hong Kong and I was TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY at how many hot girls were there. Nothing like last time I was there. The place is 2-3 times bigger and probably 80% of the girls are hot enough to go with. I remember in 2007 the majority of the girls there were not attractive. After an hour of wandering around, I made eye contact with a cute one and she came over. She seemed innocent and new to the Zona Norte. Said she started 2 months ago and was from TJ. She was really sweet and cute. A waiter took us to a table and I made a huge mistake, I agreed to have some drinks brought over. He brought 6 small orange sodas and a plate of ham & cheese. Damage: $56. My fault, I should have known better. I paid it and we chatted for 30 minutes in my horrible spanish (she didn't speak english). I asked her to come to the room for an hour, it was $120. Not sure if I could've gotten any cheaper. Lots of hugging and kissing, and she had the most perfect 21 y.o. firm tits I have ever seen. She told me to go slow, she was scared it would hurt. I never heard that before, usually they want to finish as fast as possible. So I did what she asked and went really slow screwing for a while and it did seem like it was not comfortable for her (yes it was tight). It was a really awesome hour so I asked her to come back to my room the next night at 8pm for another hour session.

Hardly could sleep at all due to the noise. My room was directly over the bars and it was really loud. Then at 8am the construction noise started. Sounded like jackhammers, impossible to sleep over all that noise. Saturday morning I complained about no hot water, the front desk guy said wait for an hour, then there would be hot water. He was lying because for the entire 3 days there was no hot water. Only icy cold water, which is not good on a cold TJ morning (with also no heat in the room). I asked for a new room and he said "sorry, full". Probably lying again, of course.

Wandered around Revolution for a couple hours. Really boring.

At 2pm I decided to try Adelitas. I was expecting it to be pretty empty and have low-quality girls. Again, I was totally surprised. There weren't many guys at all but there were plenty of attractive girls. Probably 3-1 girl to guy ratio. I got a beer and a really hot girl walked up to me, I would say she was a 9/10 and spoke great english. Perfect body, no kids, probably one of the hottest girls I've ever been with in TJ. Drank a beer with her and asked how much would it be for a hour at my hotel. She said $200, I said "hmm, no thanks". She explained that part of it is to pay a cut to Adelitas to make up for the lost room revenue. I wasn't going to pay $200, she eventually talked me into an hour in the Adelitas hotel for $120 +room. It wasn't a great GFE but wasn't bad either. Long 20 minute massage. Then 20 minutes of fucking. Damn, No hot water in that room either! I was dying to get a hot shower. We finished before the hour was up, she asked for a tip, I said no since we only had sex one time and I didn't get a whole hour. (I always try to have a good answer ready for when they ask for a tip).

8pm and my super-sweet girl from Hong Kong friday night showed up right on time at my Las Cascadas room. She was wearing normal street clothes, which was cool. Another GFE hour, just like the night before. I can't believe this girl is a hooker! She's too nice.

Sunday 11am made another visit to Hong Kong. Not many guys but dozens of hot girls. I guess this place is open 24 hours/day. I sat at the bar and drank a beer and it was 30 minutes before anyone approached me. The girl that approached me had awesome large tits and nice bod. Only spoke a little english. She asked for a drink, and a couple minutes later asked if I would go up to a room for $60. I said yes of course and we went up to my room. (The robe-tip guy asked for $2 this time, but it was only $1 friday night). Fairly good session, she rode me hard, but I guess the Tadalafil (Cialis) was wearing off from friday night and was not staying that hard. Only complaint was there wasn't any foreplay at all, she just took off her clothes and immediately put the condom on me. And she didn't stay the whole 30 min.

Checked out of hotel 1pm Sunday, walked to border, 30 minute wait in line, went back home.

Lessons learned:
1. I won't stay in the Zona Norte again, next time I will get a $20 hotel near Revolution (there are some decent very quiet ones on side streets with hot water and sheets) and rent rooms from the bars to go with girls.
2. I spent way too much money. No more hour-long sessions.
3. Daytime is an excellent time to go to Adelitas & Hong Kong. In fact I think I prefer it to nighttime when its so crowded.
4. Should I be paying less for daytime sessions? $50 maybe?
5. Hong Kong Club is amazing!

Great report and nice list of lessons learned. There are many other hotels, such as Caesars that are within walking distance that might suite you better. I completely agree; Hong Kong Club is amazing! I also agree that the afternoons and early evenings are better at Adelitas & Hong Kong. Later in the evenings, especially on the weekend, HK becomes a sausage festival. Some might argue that the talent is better in the late evenings, but being there every weekend, I preferred the ladies in the late afternoon/early evening shifts at HK. You also might want to check out Tropical Bar; which is becoming one of my favorites as well.

Good report China 69 - I have done the P4P scene in about 20 different countries and what we have here in our backyard (TJ/SoCal) is very remarkable. Quality woman of all types set in a fun environment (HK & AB)with the cost being reasonable (little travel expense unlike Medellin Colombia where I will be next week).

Being a seasoned P4P traveler I don't need to tell you that we are very fortunate.

Me personally, I don't know if I am just getting better with my selection of the chicas I want to party and play with, but in the past year and a half in TJ with about 15 trips I am batting 70% with finding very fun and affectionate chicas.

In TJ and other places I have learned that they really appreciate a respectful, clean and good smelling man as when I dress up a bit more I always get more in return, with the "return" to me meaning even better than GF experiences (if there is such a thing).

Good report. Thanks.

i am very happy to live two hours from tj. i will be there with some amigos for new year's eve. there will be about 5 of us, most flying in from the different areas of the u.s. and canada. while there will be fewer ladies, it will far exceed anything i would do in the states.

i agree that hk is a club that should be seen by all, and i do enjoy it better during the day. maybe if they turned up the ac at night it would help.

i also enjoy las chevalas. if you can speak some spanish, it is an excellent place to find the elusive "diamond in the rough" that may never have been with a gringo before, and offering excellent services. i also enjoy chicago club where there always seems to be two or three do ables, and a place to sit and chill. i enjoy tropical for dancing, but they need to turn down the volume to 10 or so.

i have just returned from medellin, colombia and there is an area that reminds me of tj called mayorista. it is a street scene that hardly any gringos frequent. some super hot ladies (be careful of **** though) for $30k cop ($17.00 us). paisas are off the charts for looks and gfe services.

i haven't been to tj in about three weeks now, so i am looking forward to nye. if you see a fat, old, fart having tequila poured down his throat, stop and let's have a drink.

health & happiness to all...........

Nice report, I was planning to get a few nights at Hotel Cascadas in January but it sound sounds like a horrible place to stay with no hot water and loud noise 24/7.

I have stayed at the La Mansion Hotel which was very nice, clean and quiet but is not very close to the Zona clubs. I guess the hotel on or near revolution are worth checking out. Been wanting to try hotel premier as well some day as it looks very nice but again not close to the clubs.

I might be back in TJ on the sunday the 19th. The girl I met there on my last visit wants me to meet her somewhere other then Hong Kong. I may get us a room at La Mansion. I'm not so sure why she wants to go other place and not meet at Hong Kong.

Do they not get to keep all of the money they receive when working in a club? My only guess is the club or hotel take a cut of the many paid?

I'm not so sure I want a one girl only relationship from a club as I was sort of planning on trying out a few others that caught my attention and I dont want any hard feelings from it. I dont want to feel obligated to be with her every time I step in to Hong Kong bar. I also wan to be able to sit an relax with out wasting money buying round after round of expensive drinks.

Nice TR. Thanks...

Couple of tips. Yes, you overpaid. $50 during the day is very easy to obtain, and $40 is more common than you might think. I've been offered $40 by some pretty good lookers in AB. YMMV.

The hour rate is never double the half-hour rate. They would like you to think so, but stand your ground. It should only be about 50 - 60% more, i.e. if it's $50 for half an hour, an hour should only be $70 or $80, max.

Use pesos, you'll save money. The "chica" exchange rate is 10:1, so think in those terms, i.e. $50 is 500 pesos. 90% of the girls will have no problem with it, the other 10% are sharks to be avoided. :)

Wow, that good to know. Next trip: January. Any TJ experts want to meet up and give me some mentoring?

A few years ago at CC I tried to get a girl to go for an hour for $100. She wouldn't budge from $120. So I said fine, I'll sit here with you and drink my beer for 30 minutes and then give you $60 for 30 minutes upstairs. And thats what I did. I told her she's losing money but she stood her ground. So I guess thats why I thought there weren't 1-hour discounts...

I find that it's better to start with an hour in mind, rather than 1/2 hour and then increase. I just inquire about an hour, if I'm so inclined, and let them suggest a price. They may start at double, but this is MX and everything's negotiable. . IMHO the ones who insist on stupid amounts of money are rarely worth the effort.

New taco place: I read a couple of posts talking about this place, so I decided to try it out. Because I only eat tacos off the pork roll, my opinion only goes as far as that. The pork taco was pretty good and it was cheaper than the infamous taco stand that is next to the new place, however, it was lacking the crispy quality and size factor. The infamous taco stand did not seem to lose many customers to the new place. About 3pm, there were around 15 customers hanging around and enjoying the stand; I was the 16th. The huge pork roll has some serious fire on it, which helps make it crispy and even after the "Pork roll Master" cuts off the pork, he cuts it up on the grill and makes it even more crispy. And the pork portion is almost doubled in size when compared to the new place. Once again, just my opinion.

Hong Kong: The place was rocking on Friday afternoon. After a trip upstairs to wash the tacos off my hands, I walked about halfway down the stairs to watch and get an overview of the place and I noticed a bunch of new talent in the place (many gearing up for the holidays; who knows). One of my favorite and trusted servers, D Ray, came up and chatted for a bit. I saw a older, but stunning woman dancing on the "Big pole of asses" and I asked D Ray if she was new to the scene. And he replied,"Nah, she has been in and out of HK for years." Then he said,"You know your friend Ely?" I said,"Sure, is that her older sister?" He replied,"No, that's her mother!" Holy shit on a shingle! I went down to say Hi and to pay my respects. The closer I got to her, the more resemblance I saw. Beautiful woman, her name is Yada (I think).

I was hanging out in the loft, the table above the jacuzzi, with Marla drinking Tequila, when all the chaperones took the stage for a few songs. There were about 12 chaperones dancing and there were lots of dudes hanging out watching. And out of nowhere, Marla said,"muchos hombres sin dinero." Which I understood, just wish I could understand all the other things she tells me! There is always one chaperone that I enjoy watching dance and give her a buck whenever I'm there. She is the short hair blonde that always wears funky glasses and dances like there is no tomorrow! Full of energy and life; which I lack both at my age.

The last few times I went arriba with a HK lady, we went out the alley entrance, hung a left, walked pasted Las Chavelas, then hung another left into the hotel. I don't know the name of the hotel, but I like the rooms. They appeared to be remodeled and quite nice. A little help here please? This is not the same hotel that is used when you head out the front entrance of HK; right?

Headed out for another taco around 7:30 and stopped in Tropical, Las Chavelas, and Adelita; all the places were pretty busy. Tropical always seem to have a 2 for 1 special going on, so I had a couple of screwdrivers and danced a bit. Back to HK and I said to myself,"You will leave by 9." I wish I had a dime for every time that never happened. But this time, it did happen. Went out the alley entrance and the street girls were abundant! After getting a Tijuana hotdog on the corner of Callejon and Constitucion, I hoped in a cab to head back. The taxi driver spoke English and we talked a bit. We made our way down the alley and then hung a left. We ran into some sort of festival that block the street. I asked the driver what was going on, and he told me it was a festival to celebrate the Virgin Mary. After just traveling down the alley, I had at least 5 jokes that popped in my head; but I kept them to myself.

I found the time to run down for a quick visit today. Got to the cab stand about 5:00-ish, and off the the Nelson. Revu was closed north of 2nd. Turns out there is a biiiiiig fiesta going on. Probably old news, but I haven't been down since last month.

Wandered into La Malquerida and nabbed a booth. The place kinda grows on you after a few visits. The meseros didn't seem as pushy this visit. No chip scams. 2x1 beers, at least early. Not sure about after 8.

Had the mesero bring me a favorita, and we hung out for a bit, did a couple of dances, had a couple of beers and a couple of lady beers (sprite in the Tecate Light bottle). Then we adjourned to the roach trap next door. 70p for 1/2 hour, but biz musta been a bit slow, because we were in for almost an hour and nobody said a word. Cool. .

After filling all of my date's holes, and a quick shower, we popped back into LM at about 8, and WTF? There on the dance floor is some Chippendale's refugee I leather chaps and a g-string doing a slow grind. All the dancers were sitting at tables, tipping the guy and doing some distreet groping. It was dark, so I'm not sure, but I thought I saw One Wing Low hanging on the rail, drooling and slipping $1 propinas in the guys jock. But, again, it was dark and I may be mistaken. . Anyway, as I said, WTF? What marketing genius decided that guys who are looking to hang out in hooker bars want to ogle some muscle-bound dude? Couldn't they pay some gorgeous professional stripper? Now THAT would bring in some biz.

So, we left and went to the fair. Wow. I'd never been before. I thought the Patpong Night Market was an absolute zoo, but they have nothing on the Feria de Guadalupe! OMG! But it was very interesting looking into the mob in the church, watching the parade, feasting on homemade tamales and flan. Mmmmmm.

After proving my marksmanship on the antique BB guns, we split. SHe went home, I to the border. Traffic was unreal, and the taxi had to drop me at the top of the hill. But there was no line, waltzed through the checkpoint in no time flat.

I think the fiesta goes through Sunday, and it's an interesting glimpse into another culture. And some pretty good food, too.

Is La Malquerida renamed bar in Zona Norta and where exactly is it location? How safe is it are things that pop-up Thanks for the clarification. It is now where Las Charitas used to be. Remodeled. Upstairs, downstairs and a dance floor. Very hot upstairs in the evenings. Owned by the same people who own HK. Sort of a cross between HK and LC. Unfortunate mix of music, and played a little too loud. Girls range from 5s to 8s. Better selection after 8. Shows alternate between so-so strip shows and customers dancing with the ladies.

Not for everyone. I've been told the girls' pay has kept increasing, probably in order to retain them. It always looks pretty busy in the evenings, but it seems to be a fair amount of local guys who buy a bucket and sit and watch.

Hey I'm making my first trip to Tijuana in feburary. I could not do it over the last year due to financial issues. But I got everything ready and booked. Staying at the Santiago in Zona norte. I was just wondering if you guys would happen to know what the weather is usually like in feburary? And how abundant would the SG / Club scene be. Hopefully it won't die down due to the weather change.

I hope to have some good times. Hopefully the Hotel is a safe one, and I hope to share as much info as I can gather. Just about 1 month and two weeks away and I can't wait. I'm coming from the far east (ny). To be honest I've never been with a latino women, but I hear good things LOL. I'm also gunna try to use pesos to save a bit. Any advice you can give a first timer I would greatly appreciate it. I will contribute as much as possible afterwards.

Thanks again

I have seen couples dancing inside and group of males ihanging outside but did not spend time. The chica door greeter was very appealing in looks and kind in manner which was the big draw to go in.

Are the chica drink program & ariba similar to HK & AB?

Arribas are whatever you can negotiate. Cheaper than HK.

Tijuana like southern California has decent weather year round. You make have a bit of rain in February, but it is the oldest profession in the world and recession and weather proof. If it is a daiy of heavy rain, sof of the SGs will go home. The Club scene is always happening.

Hopefully it won't die down due to the weather change.

I hope to have some good times. Hopefully the Hotel is a safe one, and I hope to share as much info as I can gather. Just about 1 month and two weeks away and I can't wait. I'm coming from the far east (ny). To be honest I've never been with a latino women, but I hear good things LOL. I'm also gunna try to use pesos to save a bit. Any advice you can give a first timer I would greatly appreciate it. I will contribute as much as possible afterwards.

Thanks again

20% increse in price since summer at Hotel Ticuan. HK hotel from 11 to $15 (over 40%) in one year. Chica price on rise?

Hotel Ticuan

Now $60. 50 pr 725 pesos was this summer $ 50 USD or 650 pesos for a room. It is located eight blocks south of the "Tijuana Arch." Turn right into Calle 8va #8 and it is opposite the police station. Has smoking and non-smoking rooms. Well decorated and the rooms are spacious.

Other low end hotels from 220 to 350 pesos on Ave. Revocution. Not sure what the Grand or other luxury hotel rate is currently.

Tijuana Recession proof. ! Only time will tell. Viva Tijuana.


Tijuana like southern California has decent weather year round. You make have a bit of rain in February, but it is the oldest profession in the world and recession and weather proof. If it is a daiy of heavy rain, sof of the SGs will go home. The Club scene is always happening.

I went Wednesday night, and I just want to say there are definitely a lot of new faces. Just like someone else said, a lot of girls that normally don't do this kind of work are trying to make some extra money for the holidays. It would be worth your time to check out the scene.

One of the ladies that I see quite often in Tijuana is Silvia, she is a enterprising free lance lady who is trying to start her own online brothel. She is not associated with any pimps and has her own small collection of girl friends. She would like to rent a house in Tijuana, also start an associated web site. On the site will be pictures of each girl as well as webcams for that girl. The big twist is that you can pay and visit the girl and have sex with her. She is looking for investors, if you would like to contact her or her partner they can be reached on yahoo chat silviadetj at yahoo. Com and tijuana_jack at yahoo. Com.

You are perfectly correct, I do not post because most of my exploits in other countries are not of any not or have been covered by posts by other travelers. And if you chat with Silvia I am sure that she would be more than happy to see you. Also I thought as a group, we would be the only type of people who would be interested in investing in such a business. When new Vegas casinos come out, they get investors by offering VIP memberships. I like having sex with young Mexican women at a lower rate than other online escort companies and she delivers. By investing in her business we would be facilitating a better medium for us to get action. So if you prefer street girls with no GFE and small shitty hotel rooms than please ignore my post.

A new guy comes on a internet web site where you tend to believe members with a history of posts (which you can look at if you so desire) much sooner than a member who has never posted before. This new member is offering you an opportunity to invest in a business venture. This business venture is being initiated by a woman from another country where her business background is having sex with numerous unknown people from all over the world. The business venture is a brothel.

Although the concept sounds interesting, I would be highly skeptical if my best friend, who has a MBA, came to me with a business venture that would compare with IBM, Google, or Facebook. You will find that members will consider you credible once you have a pedigree. Remember, this is the internet.

Had my first solo visit to Tijuana, on Wednesday. Decided to play it safe and just get a hotel room and call girls. SO I rented a room online for the Pueblo Amigo Hotel. It was rated as a nice hotel and it is close to the border, within walking distance if you want (daytime walking). If you take a taxi, like I did, make sure to have cab fare ready in your pocket, not in a wallet. Never let them see you have more money, because to most it is a game. When my driver arrived at the hotel, I asked how much I owed him, and he said "how much did you pay last time?" I just gave him $10, and said thanks. He seemed please with that, because it is like a 2 minute ride. You could probably get away with 3-5 dollars, but I wanted to play it safe, because the cabs are one weak points for being solo (if you don't speak Spanish).

First I will talk about the hotel. It is pretty nice, by Mexico standards; with a deluxe king suite for $103 total. Be aware though, they say there is a in-room safe, however you have to put a $100 deposit down for the lock on the safe. If you leave your credit card billing open, then you do not have to put down a deposit; just remember to ask for it. The rooms are nice and clean, and most of the lights work. My room had a coffee maker, and 2 bottles of water. The TV is ok, with good reception on some channels, mostly the American ones. They give you a decent amount of large towels (4) , and there is a hair dryer, with a tub / shower. On a side note, secure your door, or put out a do not disturb sign. It was 7 pm, and I was doggie behind my first girl; and freaking room service knocks on my door. At first I thought it was next door, but after the second knock the door starts to open. I pulled out and ran around the corner shouting "no thanks", and the girl wrapped a cover around her. The maid spotted the girl and said sorry, and left.

I was not impressed by the Casino downstairs. If you have been to Vegas, or most American casinos, it is a disappointment. The only non-video games are one roulette table and a craps table. Everything else is electronic, which I do not trust; so I did not play any games. The restaurant is nice with good service; and the food is pretty good for the price. I got 2 beers, mushroom soup, and beef quesidea for about $18. Pretty much all of the staff are nice and friendly, and speak English.

The agency that I called was Hottijuana. Net, operated by Tania; who used to be a Adelita regular. She speaks English and can arrange appointments (don't bother with emails as they rarely reply). I won't use the names of the escorts because they might goggle it. So the first girl I choose was the 2nd from the bottom of the right side, and I asked for a 3hr session ($300). She was nice, and somewhat decent; however it seemed that she was distracted. She lives with her mom and her son in T. J. And her phone kept buzzing with messages. The escorts like to start off with a shower, so suggest it first and they will happily do it. I recommend you bring liquid soap (hotel soap is kind of small) , because it is fun to used in the shower. It last 15-25 minutes, with soap, rinse, then head until you pop. Very nice start, but after that she did not seem into doing the job; and I had to basically show her what I wanted. She mostly wanted to just watch Telemundo, and kept her distance.

So after dinner, and some exploring for local talent, I called Tania again at 11pm. I wanted the top left, however she was not available; so I decided on the bottom left. She was a great choice. Even though it was late at night she was very, very energetic. She laughed and smiled all the time, even though we could not communicate very well. I did have my Android phone, with Google translate, but that took time. She is 4'8' of pure enthusiasm, and a person who really enjoys what she is doing. There a few different type of BBBJ, where one person will just work the tip and use mostly their hand (1st girl) ; and the other is where they use only their mouth (2nd and oh so good). She is not fine, but I will definitely call for her again next time I'm in T. J. The only thing I regret is I forgot to tip her the money that I had left; so I will give her a lot extra next time I see her. Also I forgot to take her picture.

One more thing. If you go to T. J. During the week before Christmas, expect long delays getting back across; because there are tons of Mexicans going across to do shopping. I got in line at 9:30, and it took me about 15 minutes just to find the end of the line. By then there were already about 2, 000 people in line; and it doubled back 4 times. At 12pm I was still in line and now there had to be over 30, 000 people there. Finally at 1330 I was back in the USA, and late for work. Wish I had a Sentri card, but my interview is mid January.

Thanks for the TR, George. Always fun to read about noobs' experiences. We all had 'them at one time or another.

Just my dos centavos:

You got hosed by the cabbie. Max cab fare for the yellow cab would be $5. No tip. Yellow cabs operate by zone. The PA, Centro, Zona Norte, are all within the $5 zone. You bet he was happy with $10. But it's Christmas.

$100 / hr for the escort is close to top dollar for Tijuana. $300 for three hours is extremely top dollar. For that kind of dough, she better exhibit some enthusiasm. She can watch Telemundo on her own time. Next time, should this happen again, you turn off the TV, you give her partial payment, and you show her the door. Then you call Tania. She'll make it right.

Main thing is you had fun, except for the line. That's why I quit going during the day.

My first trip to Tijuana I stayed at Pueblo Amigo because of the wingman that I went with. IMO, it is a very tired hotel, and way too far from the zona. I paid approximately $90. 00 per night, and I would not stay there again.

If one wants to have a nice place to stay I would suggest the Ticuan. Someone posted that they have raised their rates, but it should be less than $60. It is on Calle 8, just south of Ave. Revo. I walk the area both day and night, although maybe some would want to take a cab to the zona $3-$5. There are many hotels on Ave. Revo, and in the Zona that are from okay to nice and in the $30. 00 to $50. 00 range. Since I only use it to sleep, I choose the mid range hotels.

Phordan is correct and the cab should have been $3-$5 PA. What you paid for the sessions, is just what you paid. It sounds high to me, but I could care less what others pay. I would suggest that maybe you check some of the other escort sites. They seem to be less in cost, and from the pictures the ladies look very nice.

I'm happy that you enjoyed your first visit to Tijuana, although it seems that you may want to visit the Zona next time. I am looking forward to my next visit for New Year's Eve. There will be five of us there who just spent Thanksgiving in Medellin, Colombia. While I greatly enjoy my trips to Tijuana, if you have not yet been to Colombia give it a try.

If you will be there for NYE PM me, or look for five Gringo's drinking Tequila and having a great time. Stop by and say Hello.

Happy holidays to all.

The hotel used is Casade by La Malqerida in this case at the rate of 180 pesos ($15. 00 USD). It is distace walk both ways, only for the brave soul as you walk in the alley for good 1000 feet roundtrip. The waiters and staff not as ruthless as HK. Small set-up and similar in some ways to HK. Does have a promotional drink program 2 x 1.


Drinks are $7 or 84 (?) pesos.

Arribas are whatever you can negotiate. Cheaper than HK.

Shitty hotel is 70p for 1/2 hour.

Do you have your hotels mixed up?

The hotel they have alwasys used for me is right next door on the alley. The same one the SGs that hang on that corner use. Strong rumor has it that LM management is going to buy it and completely refurb it. And, of course, charge more money. But with business so slow, who knows?

Thanks!I was in the Zona yesterday (Christmas Day) from about 4:30 to 7:30. HK was the only place that had a decent selection of ladies; even though it was HK's third string. There was a butt load of no money groping locals around.

Adelita had about 10-12 women and Tropical had 3. On the street, the school girls were well represented; about 8 or so on their corner. The rest of the alley had about 12-15 girls in all.

The good part for me was the infamous taco stand was up and running; crowded as well.

So yes, the reports you read or heard were pretty much correct.

Hi folks,

Sorry for the rookie question here. Will be headed into Tijuana in early Jan, and read through the Tijuana forum to try to find an answer to the 2 specific questions I had but without luck.

1. I will have a car in San Diego, but is it more advisable to drive to the border and park somewhere and walk across? It will be daytime when I travel (around 3pm). If yes, where is it recommended to park the car State-side? If not, where is it safe to park the car in Tijuana?

2. I do not plan on getting a hotel in Tijuana since I will only be able to go for a few hours. If I check out the regular spots (e. G, HK) , can I get by without renting a private room and simply go with the hourly places nearby?

Thank you all so much.

Thank you all so much. I always recommend parking on the us side. There is a lot right next to Jack in the box for $5 for 8 hours. Walk across and take a taxi for no more than $5. Don't even ask the price. Tell him adelitas and pay him at the end. Also if you don't want to appear like a fresh tourist sit in the front. Its the local custom.

Crossing back depends on time. I usually cross back at 11pm. 1am hardly any wait during those times. Cross any time between 6 and 9 pm, expect to stand in line an hour or two. Worse if your driving.

Parking in the Jack-In-The-box parking area works well. When you leave you just drive straight across the tracks and you are on the freeway back to San Diego. After parking in the lot walk down the hill and turn right. Just after the trolley tracks turn left. You will see the exit back into the USA. Just to the left of that you will see people walking up a ramp. Follow them up and cross the freeway, walk down the other side. On the other side, turn right, and walk through two revolving gates. You will then walk straight ahead and the yellow cabs will take you to Adelita's. As was stated, it is at most $5. 00. Tell them that you want to go to Adelita's. Do not let them tell you about other places, where they will try to take you for a propina.

If you are there during the day, I would recommend that you go to Hong Kong first. It is a few doors down from Adelita's on the same side of the street. It usually has more ladies available during the day. The rate should be no more than $60 per half hour. You will be taken to a hotel right next door to the bars. It is $12-$15 for the half hour, and yes they are safe.

When you leave find a cab and tell them you want to go to the border (la linea). It should be no more than $5. 00. Depending upon the time of day, it will take you from 15 minutes to usually no more than two hours to get back through.

Health & happiness.

Sometimes, the driver will open the car door for me, and it's always the back seat. Only once, have I been propositioned about going to somewhere other than Adelitas.

Use the philosophy that football coaches tell their players: "When you score a touchdown and get in the end zone, act like you have been there before."

An important factor to consider is that your US car insurance is not valid in Mexico. You have to buy Mexican insurance if you want to drive into Mexico. You can get it in San Ysidro but I agree with the others that it is simpler to park in the US and walk across.

Finally, what do you guys usually do with your cell phone and drivers license when you cross the border? In my three previous trips to Tijuana, I've left my drivers license and blackberry behind in my stateside hotel room along with my credit / debit cards and just brought my a wallet with cash and my passport. Do you think that's overkill?

I tend to drink a lot in Tijuana, and I get a little paranoid when I have all Of my belongings On me. I'm debating bringing my cell phone along this time in case I feel like snapping a few pics. What do you guys think? Or is traveling with less still the way to go in Tijuana.

Hey guys,

I am going to Tijuana for the first time in about 6 years. Back then HK was a dump, but it looks like it's the new hangout now. What is the average cost to get a girl from there to come to your hotel room after work. I don't do the 30 minute unsanitary session at the clubs. Never liked it. I like to take my time in my own hotel. I used to get girls from Peanuts and beer to come to my room after work. Is that place still good. Also, what strip clubs are on revo now. I paid 5 a lapdance. Can you still negotiate that rate.

Thanks

SuperSteve
12-29-10, 22:40
This is just IMHO, so it is not necessarily true for all.

HR: I would suggest that you may want to check out the escorts available in Tijuana. A lady from one of the clubs, if she will even go to your room, is going to be somewhere in the $200-$300 range, for a TLN. I have done it for $100, but I knew the lady very well, and go to Tijuana about twice a month. In the past six years much has changed in Tijuana, including costs. Everything in Mexico is negotiable. So the numbers that I just gave you, other than what I paid, could be crap. In Hong Kong you should be able to get a lap dance for less than $ 5. 00. If you buy her a drink ($7. 00) , and choose right, it will be multiple lap dances, while copping feels, and hopefully she doesn't gulp down the drink (a bad sign).

A: The clubs all offer something different. Without knowing your preferences, it would be hard to say. HK is much better in the day for me than it is at night. It becomes a real sausage fest, and usually very hot (temperature wise) at night. Adelita's is pretty much wham-bam-thank you- and on to the next. There are not as many hotties are there used to be, but there are still many. Unless you spend some time in there, it seems to me that it is more "Get-R-Done" mentality. Chicago Club is usually very dead until at least ten o'clock, then it is just dead. Having said that there is always a lady that I would do in there. You can always find a seat, and you don't get hassled by the ladies or the waiters. I usually go about midnight to wind down and sit without the Tijuana hassles. If you can speak any Spanish at all I would suggest stopping at Las Chavelas. There is usually a "diamond in the rough" there, and they normally haven't been with Gringo's which can be nice. Also Tropical Bar, if you can stand hearing Mexican music played at 12 level. It is very loud. You can go in there and dance with one of the ladies, if you enjoy that, and tip them a buck. If you hit it off, ARRIBA. There are other local hangouts in the Zona that are worth at least sticking your head in the door, and many times will offer a 2 for 1 drink special. You shouldn't have to pay more than $ 60 for a half hour, but many are now starting at $80. If you are interested in a lady, before you buy her a drink, especially in HK, ask does she go Arriba (not all do) , and what is the rate. I was foolish enough not to do that a couple of months ago, and got quoted $100, although she was very hot, and intelligent.

I will be there this weekend for New Year's Eve and will post on how it went.

Health & happiness to all.

I never get sloppy drunk as that's one of the worst things you can do in a foreign country. My [beer] drinking in Tijuana is slow and steady over a prolonged period of time with a few stops to the taco stand mixed in. That being said, with all of the visual distractions and grabby women, my concern is that I wouldn't notice if something fell (or was lifted) from one of my pockets. That could still happen to me if I was stone cold sober, but I'm sure I'm a little more relaxed when I'm drinking.

You're right though. Why tempt fate? I'll continue to travel with only what is necessary.

If you're going from the airport straight to Tijuana then there's no reason to go to Old Town Station. Just take Airport Bus #992 (its every 15 minutes during the day, every 30 minutes after 7pm, stops right in front of each terminal) and get off at America Plaza trolley station which is downtown. Then take the trolley to the border.

Super steve. 6 years ago I didn't speak spanish. Now I am at advanced basic. Its going to be interesting to actually talk to the girls now. Since chicago is slow now, should I try to get a girl from there to go to the hotel after work. If you had to pick one of the clubs that has nice looking girls and is the easiest to get a girl after work, where would you go. I'm thinking around 125. 00 for 2 hours or all night.

What is the lowest I can get a lapdance in HK? Also, are they dressed in stripper thongs and tops or more like adelitas where they hide eevrything and when you get them naked everything falls to the ground. LOL

Thanks! For some reason I thought the Old Town Station was the closest trolley station to the airport.The downside is that it might take you 2 hours to get to the border using public transportation. And oh yeah, forgot to mention, they are doing repairs on the trolley line right now so you'll get to Chula Vista and then the trolley stops, and you have to transfer to a bus to get the rest of the way to the border.

I'd say the fastest you could get there on a good day if you're lucky is 1 1/2 hours, but if you have to wait a while for the bus, then wait for the trolley, it could take 2+ hours. The repairs don't slow down the trip any. You just get off the trolley and hop on a bus thats already right there waiting for you and takes you straight to the border via I-5.

I go to Tijuana monthly. I walk across and taxi to and from the border. In my mind deaths are 99% drug related. So when the out of ordinary happens I like to re-think my Tijuana strategy and I will share with other mongers so they too can rethink theirs and stay safe.

Sorry to the family for their lost! Sounds like he was one of the good guys. Henry was a friend and coworker of mine. He was going back to visit his family in PI on the 19th. The Tijuana cops don't have a motive; clueless as usual. My only guess is that he pulled money from somewhere in town and two thugs escorted him back to his apartment and took more than his money.

You are correct; he was one of the good guys. He lived in Tijuana because he could not afford to live in California; quite a damn shame.

I really had to rethink crossing the border; but I did last night with more awareness and no matter what country I go to, I always look over my shoulder. I think the Zona is safe and even up and down Revolution, as well as the big shopping mall. I will walk less, and take more cabs for sure.

[QUOTE=G C Patton; 1105540]If you take a taxi, like I did, make sure to have cab fare ready in your pocket, not in a wallet. Never let them see you have more money, because to most it is a game. When my driver arrived at the hotel, I asked how much I owed him, and he said "how much did you pay last time?" I just gave him $10, and said thanks. He seemed please with that, because it is like a 2 minute ride. You could probably get away with 3-5 dollars, but I wanted to play it safe, because the cabs are one weak points for being solo (if you don't speak Spanish). QUOTE]

Nice report. But $10 for a cab ride was over price.

Headed down to Tijuana, since I was half way there. Parked behind JIB. On my way into the lot I spotted a very pretty blond American girl, looked around 20, with what looked to be her younger sister, and two young guys were with them. More on that later. Parked and wisely decided to pack my umbrella, as it looked pretty cloudy. Got the the Zona around 4:30 pm. Popped into AB and HK; the pickings were slim at best. At HK, noticed that the group I mentioned above had shown up to hang out and drink some beers. They seemed quite shy. Another group that looked out of place were this American (20yr old guess) lesbian couple.

For the next 3 hours, I hopped back and forth between AB and HK. On one of those hops the cute blond American girl (mentioned about) , decided to give the shaving cream show a try on Pista Sur. Pretty hilarious. I had never seen a gringa up there, and she was doing it with a chicka from HK. After the show, the guys left these girls alone to go mingle with HK chickas, so obviously they weren't their boyfriends. I sat next to these girls and the older one began to chat it up with me. Since, the pickings were slim, and she was pretty good looking, I propositioned her to go arriba. But after going back and forth she wasn't sure she was ready to graduate to that next step.

Back at AB around 7:30, there were some next arrivals. I picked up Mar, from Tecate. Heavy bolt ons. Around 25 yrs old. Could tell she was new, because she didn't know where the coat rack was. Then she asked the doorman "what happens when I get upstairs?" ect. While she was not new to the game, it was her first day in Tijuana, and I her first customer. Got to the room, paid her. Without her shirt, she revealed quite the flabby belly, but no other complaints. She went on to give me the performance of a lifetime! One of the most intense sessions I've ever had. GFE, PSE, no holds barred. Finished just after the knock and considered going for round 2, but could barely walk after that one! Would highly recommend. Looks 9. Body 7. Performance 10.

Went to get the usual tacos at the stand by CC. The umbrella came in handy. Cabbed it back to the border. It went by quickly. Chatted with two older gents in line. Apparently they had just come back from AB too. Didn't think about it at the time. But wish I had asked if they were members of this forum.

Wanted to head over for NYE but weather in AZ kept me grounded. Saturday was clear and cold. Flew over to Brown and taxied to the border. Tried to touch base with One Wing Low with no luck.

Caught a cab on the other side about 4 and procured a hotel room, freshened up and headed over to HK. What a disappointment. The selection of chicas was miserable must have had a dozen or so of the 3rd string in for work. Checked over at AB, no different. Alley was very sparse as well. Had a couple of beers, grabbed a couple of tacos and made the rounds again. Things still dismal.

Eventually the count of chicas in the bars improved but it was less than what I have come to expect in Tijuana. Spent a fair amount of time hanging by the piste norte to see if OWL showed and just watching the goings on. Wound up taking an all natural cutie upstairs and had a good time. HK turned into the usual sausage fest earlier than usual and I headed out.

Went over to CC about 2300 and it was busier than I have seen it in the past. Decided there was exactly one item of interest there but apparently others thought the same thing and she was never free. Back to AB. Eventually settled on a chica. She seemed a bit "stand offish," but she looked hot. Should have gone with the initial assessment. Upstairs too many rules and an uninspired performance. I won't see her again.

Called it a night. Headed out about 8 the next morning. No wait at the line, and tailwinds home.

I will be back but hope that things are better next time.

On my last trip one of my favorites told me she'd be heading back home during the holidays, not returning to Tijuana until end of January. A couple of other chicas also said similar travel plans, although there are some that live in Tijuana, but just working less to have more time off for the holidays.

I may head back down in a couple weeks, there should be a nice size crop of chicas ready to get back into the groove for the dinero.

When do the chicas start returning back after their Christmas / New Years breaks to their home-towns?

Having some business dinners around 7 pm. That will be on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

I want to go and have fun at my favorite place, the HK club during the day. Is there any way one can "predict", roughly, the time it will take to croos the border back on such days? I mean could it be as bad as 2-3 hours?

Can't comment on HK but your best bet is to come down AFTER the 7pm dinners. You will have no delay returning to the USA after 10 or 11pm but. If you are thinking of an early morning or noon run you are in trouble. Most likely from 1 to over 2 hour wait crossing back to the USA in the afternoon. Your passport shouldn't be a problem as long as you have it on you.

I was in Tijuana over New Years with an amigo who is from Canada, and he sailed through customs. I don't think that a passport other than USA makes a difference, as long as it is current.

Have you considered staying on the Tijuana side in a hotel? That way you could travel back to San Diego during the day, and be at the clubs at night when there are more women. I agree with Ninguno Especial that your choices before 2 PM are limited, especially on Monday. It would seem that maybe a street girl would be a better choice due to the time line.

If you try a session before your meetings it would mean that you would really have to hustle, and have the potential of a 2 hour wait to cross back, and then depending upon how you travel another 30 minutes to get to your San Diego meetings.

Health & happiness to all.

I cross with a Canadian passport and can attest that it doesn't cause any problems. There are tiers of countries that may get more scrutiny. Canada and Mexico are part of NAFTA and have some favoured nation status in crossing the border. Next comes 1st world countries (Europe, Japan, Australia, etc.) then nations with which the US has a good relations (Korea, Chile, Israel, etc.) and then getting to more possible problems (e. G. Iraq, Pakistan, Sudan, etc.). Plus I'm sure there are alerts and other notices that the border guards receive.

I did the same thing recently. This will turn out to be an all-day affair for you. You will have to wake up early, eat breakfast, and get down to Tijuana, and I mean be IN Tijuana and in the alley (the street where HK is) around 11am. I am not sure how live HK is at that time but the street is fairly packed by then. Do whatever you want but you need to be in line at the border by 1:30 or 2pm (latest). On Saturday and Sunday you can expect a little over 2 hours in line. So we are talking 4:30 or so, you will be back at the hotel. Then you need to shower and change for the meeting, eat a little, and be ready by 7pm.

In general, I woke up around 9am, and left around 10 am took the trolley from downtown to Tijuana and walked to the alley and was usually there by 11:30am.

I've been in a similar scenario before, down in San Diego for business with evening events scheduled. I've also been down recently when the daytime lines on the weekend are 2 1/2 hours long.

The quality of the early-afternoon shifts are hit&miss, however, there is a higher quality and quantity of options in the late-evenings. If it was me, and the business dinners lasted the whole evening, just head down to Tijuana afterwards, there's still plenty of time for fun even if you get there at midnight. You can always sleep in during the time that you were thinking of doing an early-afternoon visit.

The long lines in the afternoon are not fun, and there is no way to predict the wait, just expect at least 2 hours of standing in line.

Just my two cents, have fun.

Even around 3pm'ish during the week is a good time. Weekends = more gringos and higher prices. IMHO tijuana is at it's best when less gringos are around.

Between the holiday and the cold, the Zona was near dead. Wandered thru the alley with prolly about 10 chicas out, AB with about 3 guys to 1 chica, CC with about 7 chicas and 10 guys, HK with at least 3:1. Bar Tropical had a few chicas, only one do able but with attitude. I ran into a guy working there who spoke perfect english. He said he had been working in Seattle until they deported him as illegal. Didn't get a chance to talk more to him, but will look him up next visit, if he's still there.

HK has had a major renovation to double the size. Las Chevalas next door to it also was redone to double the size. They had a live band there, so will be worth checking out next time since I tend more towards the ficha bars than then the LA style strip / rip off joints.

A few new food places in the zone that look alright. I may start worrying if the zona becomes too upscale with a starbucks, valet parking an' all.

No line at the border at 4 AM and no hassles.

Scarab. Did you overnight at a hotel or just stay up? I'm trying to find a reasonable price / non-skanky room for the night to avoid the alcohol and post-sex drive home. Eventually, I'll churn my way thru RTFF, but I tire quickly of the flame wars.

. If you can speak any Spanish at all I would suggest stopping at Las Chavelas. There is usually a "diamond in the rough" there, and they normally haven't been with Gringo's which can be nice. Also Tropical Bar, if you can stand hearing Mexican music played at 12 level. It is very loud. You can go in there and dance with one of the ladies, if you enjoy that, and tip them a buck. If you hit it off, ARRIBA. There are other local hangouts in the Zona that are worth at least sticking your head in the door, and many times will offer a You are bringing back memories for me. Considering I was with you when I had these memories it's impressive I can remember.

Steve is dead on about the above two locations. I personally hate Tropical Bar because of the music being so damn loud you can't hear. This is coming from a guy that has survived gogos in Pattaya where the volume knob is turned to the right until it can't turn any further. I just find that traditional Mexican music which I call Mexican Polka is just brutal at that volume level on my ears.

Las Chavelas is a fun bar as Steve said if you can speak Spanish. I speak conversational Spanish and I hit it off with this very cute girl while Steve and another amigo were in there. We ended up going arriba and she was like you are my first gringo. I hope I didn't disappoint her.

Tijuana is a fun little trip and hanging out with SuperSteve makes it more fun. If any of you guys have a chance to meet him and share a drink you should. I have been with him in 4 countries now and there is always fun and adventure right around the corner when he's around.

I hung out at HK for several hours today and can tell you for sure; vacation is over and the ladies are back on the job. This includes the street girls, and the girls at Tropical. I was in the Zona on Christmas day and New Years Eve and will agree with many of the reports; the ladies were AWOL and the third and forth strings were called in; plus tons of chaperones at HK. Both days really sucked; but I was expecting that, sort of.

HK was hopping on Friday afternoon and early evening. I hung out with one of my favorite ladies in the loft (table above the hot tub) for a few hours. While doing so, I'm sure I paid the Tequila dude's rent or mortgage because of all the tequila he poured into us. The photo is one of the booth follies I tend to get involved in; this one I had my buddy Artisttyp in mind, a true ass monger indeed.

A side note; the Tijuana hotdog! Jesus-tap-dancing-christ; are these one of the best drinking snacks that the world has to offer. Grilled onions, chili peppers, hot sauce, and the other extras included. I rank this drinking snack up there with BBQ sticks in PI, pods in the bag in South Korea, and whatever was in that banana leaf in Indonesia.

The border line was long at 8pm, but I have to be honest, the Sentri card is worth its weight in gold. I by passed the line and was through immigration within 2 minutes and no questions were asked.

Hey guy I had a question? I don't have a passport yet and was wondering if anyone has had any luck crossing without one, any experiences I really miss going across the border, thanksThere is a separate line for persons "not in compliance" with ID regulations. You will have to veer to the right once you are in the building. At times, this line is actually shorter than the regular line. However, at other times you are at the mercy of the border patrol. They do not always provide an agent for those in non-compliance.

At times "non compliers" can stand in line and wait until they decide to open the gates for them!

But, yes, they will let you return without the proper credentials. Many people just have their state ID cards.

And, as I said, at times that line is actually faster.

Have some more information from my last 2 trips down. First one I wanted to stay somewhere in the Zona, till early morning. Did a lot of web research and Hotel Cascadas stuck out as a good option. It is the hotel right above Hong Kong, and they advertise themselves as a growing and renovated hotel. THIS IS A LIE. They are not a hotel, they are still just a one pop stop. Even though their web page shows credit cards, implying they accept them, they are cash only. Don't even think they have computers there. Also I stayed in their best advertised room, which looks like the pictures. It is poorly lit though (dark in the shower) , and the bed sheets are scary. Most of the Hotel is still under construction. Maybe with 2-3 more years of work, they could become a hotel. However:

1. If you want a key to your room. $10 deposit (really)

2. If you want the key to use the safe. $10 deposit

3. If you want the remote to operate the TV. $10 deposit

The only really good thing I can say is that they gave me a room, on the 4th floor, far away from any of the regulars. Also they actually gave me back my deposit, in US dollars.

Next trip I used my regular escort service, which they advertise boarder pickup and drop off. They had me walk to the street across from McDonalds, and wait there for pickup. I was early, they were late, but not by much. Pickup was in old 2dr Plymouth, with Tania driving and me and my girl in the back. Kind of surprised by the car, usually can judge person life style by the car; so wonder what her private love cabin is like. We headed to La Premier Motel, for scheduled 3 hr session. This is a very nice hotel, and if you drive a car across it is a great place to stay (very private). Basically you drive up to the entrance, and tell the person what room type you want and for how long. It cost $18 for 4hrs, for the basic room. So you pay and then they give you a garage number. There are no keys, all the garages are closed except the number that they give you. If you have a car you park inside, then close the garage. The room is above, suite style, with walk in shower, extra thick curtains, clean sheets, and decent TV reception. Also room service is very good, with a T-angle small service door. So you can get food and exchange money, while being completely nude. Prices are pretty decent also, drinks and dinner for 2 was about $12. Only things that were bad about the place was the shower control was a bit difficult to get working properly. Also I got 0 reception on my Android, so could not use Goggle Translate (awesome app) , but still managed a good time. Also, because there are no keys, I don't think you can leave and come back, though they do let in taxi's for girl pickups. But if you had a car there, could wait outside for escort, drive in, do four hours, drive out, get new escort, and then get a completely new room.

I prefer the escort experience to the Hong Kong type scene, because it is more time based. Nice to start in the shower, soap, rinse, head. Also I did not have a very good time in Hong Kong, not really a single person scene, to me. I know many people here can single HK, AB, CC and all that but I'm am still new to Zona, and do not speak a lot of Spanish. I hated the fact that you cannot go to the bar and order a drink, bartenders either just ignore you or say they are closed. As soon as you sit down, freaking waiters swarm, and then you get a girl delivered. Also really really hated the fact that you have to give the waiter the $20 for the private dance. I was like "Are you going to dance?", and the girl did not seem upset at all.

Next week I have my Sentri interview, so if I pass can I finally do overnights and not be late for work. Does anyone know of decent hotels in the Zona? Anyone been in the one across from tropical? That one seems like a decent one, if you go by goggle street view.

I usually go to the bar myself and have never been rejected. Believe me, the bartender would rather get a tip himself than split it with the waiter. Also, if you do sit, and get a drink. You have the ability to turn a girl away. As for the Spanish. Every single waiter knows enough basic English to get buy and facial expressions are universal. Just be assertive, and turn the guy / girl away. When you are assertive they will listen. My tatic at HK (which I assume you are referening to specificly is walk in and do a couple walk arounds though the bar to scout the place. If I'm thirsty, I'll go up to the bar and order a drink directly and walk around more. When I spot an area with hotties (which is usually between the two "stages" on the North side) I'll find a place to sit so I can observe them. Never let waiter pick a seat for you. They will tend to seat you in the boonies away from the action if that is their assigned area. When you see one you like, approach her. Most will speak a bit of English, or you can get the waiter to translate.

I'm also a renter and I used my Gas & Electric bill and Cable TV bill as evidence. A copy of your lease would work as well. You do not have to register a vehicle; that is an option.Thanks TomJackin! That's reassuring.

Yes, they do have a single bus lane for border crossing and Mexicoach is one of them that provides this service. The crossing time varies depending on the number of buses, it can be anywhere from 15 minutes to an hours plus in the worst case. Mexicoach has a $8 fare in 2010 for border crossing.


Once, I took the socalled "Mexicoach", or something like this. Does this bypass the line? If so, it's quite useful, I think it cost hardly 5 US$.

Spent some time checking out the shaving cream show at HK (can't beat fingering / grabbing those tits for a $ tip) and wanted to check out the SG scene in the alley too. The talent level in the alley was decent. Much better than I would have expected knowing that a lot of girls return to their hometowns for holidays.

Araceli (the thin, heavy make-up SG) shushed me to get my attention in front of HK / Cascadas as I took my walk to access the talent-level in the alley. She shushed me again as I passed by her and we made some small-talk. She offered the standard 200 pesos fare with additional 100 pesos for sin-ropa (without clothes) and oral. I decided to take the plunge just to get her off my list. She uses the Cascadas hotel (same as one used by HK girls) but they only charge you $5 when bringing in SG vs $15 when you bring a BG (the logic still defies me till date).

Once inside the room, she stripped to reveal a not-huge but decent pair of titties and gave an average CBJ followed by mish / DG to completion. The session was very average and by no means did I feel any level of intimacy but it was cheap nut none the less. Paid her the agreed 300 pesos, washed Jr with soap in shower and I was back in HK to enjoy the shaving-cream girls washing themselves / playing in the tub this time!

SG session = 15 minutes (standard)

BG session = 30 minutes (standard)

They figure guys pulling chicas out of HK are rich and those pulling them off the street are on a budget most likely. A lot of us try to avoid using the Cascadas and if we want a chica from HK or LC will set a date before or after her shift if not her day off.

Bill finally got his sentri card approval, expected to use it immediately, but told they no longer issue right away, but you must wait a week and then validate it on line via the code that comes with the card. Fuck!

Bill took a white public bus with blue stripes to his interview from the corner of Const. And the 2nd road kitty corner to the Calimax grocerey store. Cost is 8.5p. There are 2 buses that you can take to otay linea, took them both and one will drop you off 1 mile south and the other about 500 ft away. Ride time is about 30 minutes, the bus had few passengers and you get a street view from zona Rio through some barrios, the international airport and then otay.

Anyone going to walk to Costco just take Revolution south to the 5th. 6th or7th street and take a left (east) and you will run right into it.

If your room is too cold, I bought one of the single burner hot plates for sale by many of the vendors across dolce and gabbana club. Works nicely, is small, quiet but not sure if permitted, so stashed it so the maid won't see. $140p.

SG's are not as plentiful as a couple of months ago, but having no problem with choice.

Getting good luck and GFE from girls that have lived in Cali.

What are the top 2 massage parlors in Tijuana? I want to check out a couple before I leave. All I can say so far is they really cleaned this place up from 5/7 years ago. These girls are very hot in hk. Chicago club is now deserted. Looked like a bomb hit it. The girls at ab now where bikinis so you can actually see their bodies. I guess they had to compete with HK. The only negative I see so far are there are too many waiters in hk. Its non stop asking you for a drink.

Have some more information from my last 2 trips down. First one I wanted to stay somewhere in the Zona, till early morning. Did a lot of web research and Hotel Cascadas stuck out as a good option. It is the hotel right above Hong Kong, and they advertise themselves as a growing and renovated hotel. THIS IS A LIE. They are not a hotel, they are still just a one pop stop. Even though their web page shows credit cards, implying they accept them, they are cash only. Don't even think they have computers there. Also I stayed in their best advertised room, which looks like the pictures. It is poorly lit though (dark in the shower) , and the bed sheets are scary. Most of the Hotel is still under construction. Maybe with 2-3 more years of work, they could become a hotel. However:

1. If you want a key to your room. $10 deposit (really)

2. If you want the key to use the safe. $10 deposit

3. If you want the remote to operate the TV. $10 deposit

The only really good thing I can say is that they gave me a room, on the 4th floor, far away from any of the regulars. Also they actually gave me back my deposit, in US dollars.

Next trip I used my regular escort service, which they advertise boarder pickup and drop off. They had me walk to the street across from McDonalds, and wait there for pickup. I was early, they were late, but not by much. Pickup was in old 2dr Plymouth, with Tania driving and me and my girl in the back. Kind of surprised by the car, usually can judge person life style by the car; so wonder what her private love cabin is like. We headed to La Premier Motel, for scheduled 3 hr session. This is a very nice hotel, and if you drive a car across it is a great place to stay (very private). Basically you drive up to the entrance, and tell the person what room type you want and for how long. It cost $18 for 4hrs, for the basic room. So you pay and then they give you a garage number. There are no keys, all the garages are closed except the number that they give you. If you have a car you park inside, then close the garage. The room is above, suite style, with walk in shower, extra thick curtains, clean sheets, and decent TV reception. Also room service is very good, with a T-angle small service door. So you can get food and exchange money, while being completely nude. Prices are pretty decent also, drinks and dinner for 2 was about $12. Only things that were bad about the place was the shower control was a bit difficult to get working properly. Also I got 0 reception on my Android, so could not use Goggle Translate (awesome app) , but still managed a good time. Also, because there are no keys, I don't think you can leave and come back, though they do let in taxi's for girl pickups. But if you had a car there, could wait outside for escort, drive in, do four hours, drive out, get new escort, and then get a completely new room.

That one seems like a decent one, if you go by goggle street view. Well, the hotel across the street from Bar La Tropa is called Hacienda de Santiago. It is a decent place although it feels more run down now than it was a few years ago. Rooms are decent, and there is safe (free) parking there if you get a room. They are totally chica friendly so it's no problem if you want to bring a girl back. Cost is $40. $45 per night when I last stayed there.

Up on Revolucion, right by the arch, is the Hotel Nelson. It's older and kind of worn on the inside but it's clean, safe and comfortable for the most part. The issue at the Nelson is noise from the street. At night, mariachi bands stand by the arch and play music, and you can also hear music from nearby clubs. Cost is $40. $45 per night, well down from a few years ago when it got as high as $55 on weekends. The Nelson is also chica friendly, but just keep in mind that there are non-mongers who stay there, so you and your girl could share a crowded elevator ride up to your floor with a family of 5!

Hotel Tiucan (not sure if I got the spelling correct) is further south on Revolucion. I've never stayed there, but I understand it probably the best of all three. Cost seems to be $50 per night and it sounds like it has the best amenities and is the quietest. It's also the furthest from the zone so you're in for a walk or a short cab ride at the end of the night.

I'm heading to Tijuana tomorrow night and I might stay at the Tiucan. If I do, I'll report back on all the details.

what are the top 2 massage parlors in tijuana? i want to check out a couple before i leave. all i can say so far is they really cleaned this place up from 5/7 years ago. these girls are very hot in hk. chicago club is now deserted. looked like a bomb hit it. the girls at ab now where bikinis so you can actually see their bodies. i guess they had to compete with hk. the only negative i see so far are there are too many waiters in hk. its non stop asking you for a drink.over the 7 years that i've been on this forum, it's been my observation that most tijuana mongers do not recommend the tijuana mps. most guys seem to prefer sgs or bar girls. i've tried a lot of the mps in tijuana, and i would break them into two broad categories:

legitimate. these are places where you can go to get an actual massage from a trained therapist. these girls know what they are doing and you will emerge an hour later feeling quite refreshed. however, no sexual services of any kind are offered there. the cost is generally $25 for one hour and includes a hot shower at the end. you can tip the girl if you enjoyed the session and i usually tip $5-$10. best one, in my opinion, is aztec, which is located on the southwest corner of revolucion and either 2nd or 3rd street. it's on the second floor so look up, and enter on 2nd or 3rd street, not from revolucion.

mps that offer sex. unlike their cousins here in the us, often staffed with asian ladies, these mps are not coy about the services they offer. the general routine, following your arrival, is to line up all the ladies and have them introduce themselves to you. you can then pick one and head to the room. here is where it gets interesting: your entrance price of $40 covers only the room and a very cursory massage. don't expect it to be like the us where you actually get a massage followed by something else. you get 3-5 minutes of massage followed by negotiations of what comes next. generally, the prices are higher than what you would pay for a bar girl for the equivalent act and duration. i guess once they know that you've paid to get in then you are a more captive audience and, seeking to get a return on your initial investment, will be more willing to pay a bit more. whatever the reason, it can be up to $80 or so for sex. for this reason, a lot of us mongers avoid these places: you can get a better massage in the us for about the same price. or, you can go to adeliata's and get full service for $60 + room fee.

if you really want to try the full service mp then a good one to try is mermaids, which is across the street and slightly west of ab, just before you get to tropical bar. they have many girls, the rooms are nice and there is a bar downstairs where you can have a drink. there are many other mps, and there used to be a spa in back of bar la tropa. not sure if it is still there, but the sign is so it's worth a look. any taxi driver in tijuana knows at least 3 mps and is no doubt compensated for bringing you in. beware of this, and of guys on the street who want to show you a mp. it's buyer beware!

overall, i agree with most members of the forum: mps in tijuana are simply not worth the prices they charge. this may be different than further south in mexico or other latin countries, but it's the experience of most people on the board who have shared and it has been mine as well. i generally give these places a pass but i always try to get to a legit place when i'm south of the border.

couple of tips: if you want a massage + extras from a sexy latina then mps are not your only option. most bar girls, especially when it's less crowded during the afternoons, will happily provide you with a massage + fs. you just need to ask and then negotiate. i usually negotiate a massage with my services and make sure it's either included in the price or will come with a modest tip on top of the $60 for the girl. the real hotties at ab may not go for this, but most ab girls will, especially when it is less crowded. regardless of whether you want a massage or something else, remember to negotiate, negotiate, negotiate! maybe offer to buy her one ficha drink if she'll throw in a massage or something like that. if one girl declines, don't be afraid to take a pass on her and try it on another girl. you are the one with the money which means that you have most of the power before the transaction transpires. believe me, if the girls sense that you are about to walk away, most will quickly lower the price or try to accomodate you another way. there aren't that many gringos in tijuana anymore, compared with the old days, so use this fact to your advantage!

MPs that offer sex. your entrance price of $40 covers only the room and a very cursory massage.Blue Nose's review is pretty comprehensive but here's a tip for the full service MPs: you can negotiate a "package" deal before you go up to the room at many of the places. This covers the whole experience, I. E. The "massage"/room + sex. Packages can be had for as low at $80 but even at $100 it will be cheaper than doing the negotiations in the room after you've paid the house fee.

I've played in Nuevo Loredo, Nogales, Los Alogones, and Mexicali. I'm considering working my way to Tijuana. I started to read this 307 page forum and my eyes are about to pop out of my head.

Would anyone like to give me a quick summary or just answer a few questions?

1. Which road takes me into the heart of the fun? I assume it's Interstate 5.

2."Zona Norte" seems to be the fun zone. Is it walking distance from the Port of Entry?

3. Is there an overnight parking lot close to the POE on the US side?

4. If I fly in, which airport should I fly to?

5. As a first timer to Tijuana, where should I go 1st. 2nd, and 3rd? It will probably be a 2 evening trip.

6. Which is the best days to go? I'm sure the weekends will fetch the best selection but prices are higher, right?

7. Going rate at the clubs, parlors, and street?

8. As of today, anyone crazy cartel action? Will I come out alive?

Thanks in advance!

1. Which road takes me into the heart of the fun? I assume it's Interstate 5. Yes. Go south until you see a sign something like "last parking before border."


2."Zona Norte" seems to be the fun zone. Is it walking distance from the Port of Entry?Yes. It is less than a mile but a little confusing if you don't know the way. If you make a wrong turn you could end up in some shady neighborhoods. The safest way is to take a cab directly from the border to your bar and back. You can walk around between CC and AB with no problem.


3. Is there an overnight parking lot close to the POE on the US side?Yes. See #1.


4. If I fly in, which airport should I fly to?San Diego.


5. As a first timer to Tijuana, where should I go 1st. 2nd, and 3rd? It will probably be a 2 evening trip.I have been a Chicago Club and Adelitas guy. Stay off of Ave Revolucion. That is a rip-off spot.


6. Which is the best days to go? I'm sure the weekends will fetch the best selection but prices are higher, right?There will be more girls in the evening and on weekends of course but I have gone in the middle of the day on a weekday and found some gems too. I have not noticed higher prices at those times.


7. Going rate at the clubs, parlors, and street?It has been 5 years but I was able to go $50 from 2001-2005. They will ask for more of course but if you are not afraid to walk away they will come down significantly.


8. As of today, anyone crazy cartel action? Will I come out alive?I have no first hand knowledge since things have flared up. Taking cabs may help.

7. Going rate at the clubs, parlors, and street? I think Edward was still living in that 2001-2005 era. Right now in my opinion the best place is Hong Kong, and Adelita Bar is 2nd. At HK the girls are younger and you can do some serious teasing and have fun with it. At AB, the girls are more mature and have more plastic. YMMV, but it is somewhat of a F*ck Factory. Going rate is standard 60bucks, regardless of when you go. During slow times you can negotiate lower rates. At HK the young hotties may quote you 80. Just talk them down to the standard 60.

Depending on where you are coing from to take either the I5 or I805 and take the exits that in yellow says "Last Exit USA" Plenty of overnight parking there. Follow the crowd. When you get to the tunstiles you will be in Mexico. Keep walking past the armed gaurds and past the second turn still there will be a squard of taxi drivers wearing black slacks and yellow dress shirts. They will ask if you need a taxi. Say yes. Follow the guy to his car and hop in the FRONT seat. When you hop in the car say on of the following: "Adelita","Hong Kong","or "Chicago". They are all within a block from each other and this area, though bustling is probably the safest area in Tijuana (don't worry about cartels). When the cab gets to your destination, hand the guy the standard 5 bucks. Make sure you have the right change, otherwise he might prentend not to have any change in hopes of you saying,"keep it".

Enjoy!

Enjoy! I agree with this. Hong Kong seems to better for now with Adelita Bar at # 2. On my last few visits I have been able to get 1 hour for $100. 00 plus $1. 00 robe for chica and $24. 00 for one hour in the room at Hong Kong. Try not to get too caught up in buying the girls drinks or your money will be gone fast.

Also be sure to check out the Street girl's. Just go out the entrance near the dance / floor show girls. I think that is the south or maybe known back entrance now days. And then just walk up and down that block. I have had allot of good experience with the street girls and they are also much cheaper in price. Some of them are pretty hot as well.

I think I will be down there tomorrow afternoon and evening.

Much has been said, lately, about walking to LZN. From some people saying it's a 5-mile trek through dangerous slums, to others who think you may get lost.

Well, I maintain that it is worth the effort, it's a nice walk if the weather is nice, it's not particularly dangerous, and you save $5, which will pay for almost 2 rounds of 2x1 beers at Tropical or La Malquerida. So, in case anyone's curious, here's a quick guide.

When you cross the initial turnstiles, proceed straight to the next set of turnstiles, and then to where the Yellow Taxi guys hang out. You'll also see a Cambio dead ahead, behind the taxi dudes. They have competitive rates, and are often a bit better than the one immediately inside the first gate.

Turn right at the cambio and proceed through the crowds of folks around the gordita cart, the churro cart and the taco stands. You'll come to a main road. Immediately opposite will the the famous McDonald's.

Cross the street. Keeping Mickey D's on your right, enter the Plaza Mexico, or whatever they call the place. It's a huge concrete pedestrian mall, with lots of failed businesses, some pharmacies, souvenir shops, etc. Proceed straight and it will dead end into something that looks like the world's biggest wheelchair ramp.

Ascend the ramp. There is a stairwell at the north end you can use for a shortcut. At the top is a nice little restaurant with somebody (often a very cute girl) standing on the top landing holding a menu and asking if you want to come in for a beer. The price is right, and if you're thrsty, by all means.

Now, the worst part of the journey. Cross the bridge over the Rio Tijuana. On a hot day you can experience some really interesting smells coming up from below. On the up side, you can get some really nice views of Tijuana on a clear day.

At the end of the bridge is a mirror-image set of ramps, with a shortcut stairwell on the south side. After you descend you will be in a sort of cul-de-sac, which is, more or less, the eastern terminus of a large pedestrian mall that leads to Avenida Revolucion. There's a pay toilet around the corner to your left as you exit the stairwell, if you can't wait. I think you'll get change from a 5p coin.

Proceed westerly along the mall. You really can't go any other way. You will cross a couple of main streets, but if you don't wander down any of them, you have NO chance of getting lost. You'll stroll past lots of souvenir shops, some guy selling silver chains, a fruit cart or two, some pharmacies and a restaurant or two. On a nice day you'll see lots of locals loafing around, maybe enjoying a cerveza or two at one of the open-air cafes, and other normal activities.

If in doubt, look up. The giant arch dominates the skyline to the west. You can't miss it.

At the end of your stroll you'll be as the corner of Revolucion and Articulo 123, aka Calle Primero. Hotel Nelson will be on the SW corner, a pharmacy on the SE corner, some dumpy hotel (can't remember the name) on the NW corner.

Feel free to turn left and wander up Revu. These days there aren't many gringos there, but there'll be lots of locals on a weekend.

Proceed on down Art. 123. You'll pass Dragon Rojo, Hotel DF, El Fracaso on your right. On your left will be a little stage where they have free entertainment on the weekends, Rio Verde, a barber shop, etc. Don't bother with any of the cambios here. Their rates suck.

The first intersection you come to, after crossing La Revu, will be Constitucion. Turn right and head north. Or, for a change, keep going to the next intersection, which is Ninos Heroes, and turn right. You'll find a whole different class of street girl.

Proceed north on Constitucion. Lots of SGs here, both sides of the street. You'll need a bit of Spanish. Figure sin ropa for no more than 200p, maybe less on a slow day. The hotels here are pretty grim. If you think Cascadas or Jalos is the bare minimum you can accept, keep walking :-D.

A little over half way to the next intersecion is the famous Alley, or Callejon Coahuila. Hang a left and check out the cuties. Plenty has already been said here, no sense in covering the same ground.

Past the alley, on your right you'll see the cop shop, a cambio (usually good rates) , a barber shop, and the "ice cream" corner at the SE corner of Constitucion and Coahuila. So-called because there used to be an ice cream shop there. Now, just lots of "school girls" trying to get your attention with "come here for just a second" gestures. Along the left you'll see some taco carts, Playboy Bar (an interesting local strip club) , and La Gloria bar (a $1 a dance club) on the SW corner.

On the NE corner you'll see a liquor store, and the Adelita souvenir shop on the NW corner. If you proceed north along Constitucion, there will be nothing of interest on your left. On the right is the infamous Hotel Monitos, Al Capone's restaurant, Chicago Club, the hotel Jalos and hotel Leyva. Do not proceed any farther. The neighborhood goes to hell rapidly from this point.

If you proceed west from Constitucion, along Coahuila, on your right is the afore mentioned souvenir shop, a new restaurant, a clothing store of some sort, and an OXXO. No clubs. Farther along you'll come to Mermaids, then Bar Tropical, and the hotel Grano de Oro on the corner of Constitucion and Ninos Heroes. Along your left you'll pass a convenience store, the hotel Garcia (I suspect maybe used by girls from Gloria, but I don't know) , Adelita, Adelita's hotel, a church, Cascadas hotel, Hong Kong, La Botana and a new taco joint on the SE corner of Coahuila and Ninos Heroes.

If you proceed west past Ninos Heroes, things peter out in a hurry. La Perla is a good seafood restaurant on the NW corner. A good short time hotel on the north side, just past La Perla's parking lot. $20 for all night. Not much on the south side. Amor Latino, and what once were New York and Manhattan. I don't think they're in business any longer, but am not sure.

From turmstile to Constitucion, if you walk at a brisk pace, it'll take you about 15 minutes. It's not long, you can't get lost, and it's mostly a very pleasant stroll.

Going home, you can certainly retrace your steps. I've walked it many times late at night. It's a bit like downtown, once things close there really is nobody around, and no fish on which the sharks can feed, if you know what I mean. Rateros are going to hang around where there are potential victims. The pedestrian mall vacates after dark. No business means no tourists. No tourists, no reason for rateros to hang out.

Now, that said, the walk is a bit creepy at night. And, a couple of years ago I got jacked up by a gang of cops on the bridge. So, discretion being the better part of valor, I now take a cab at night. And, I recommend that everybody should, too. But, if you choose to walk it at night, I really think the danger factor is pretty low.

One last tip. I don't think this happens much these days, as the cops probably have other things to do. But if you catch a cab outside AB, or the Coahuila side of HK, they will proceed east, and they have to turn south on Madero. That stretch of Madero is very dark and lonely. It used to be a great place for the cops to jack you up and frisk you for contraband. It happened to me, and lots of other folks. So, once bitten. I now always catch a cab in the alley, or on Ninos Heroes. They can't go down that stretch of Madero, so your odds are better.

By the way, if you're on foot, check out the new pedestrian mall on NH, in front of the church.

I have walked to HK Club many times from the border during the day and early evening. It takes about 20 minutes. Sometimes that is faster than a taxi.


Much has been said, lately, about walking to LZN. From some people saying it's a 5-mile trek through dangerous slums, to others who think you may get lost.

Well, I maintain that it is worth the effort, it's a nice walk if the weather is nice, it's not particularly dangerous, and you save $5, which will pay for almost 2 rounds of 2x1 beers at Tropical or La Malquerida. So, in case anyone's curious, here's a quick guide...

Excellent report by Phordphan.

I have taken this stroll many times.

The only thing that I would add is that after walking down the stairs, or ramp, through the open air plaza, cross the street (Wax Museum will be on the left) , you will come to Taco Bell on the right.

If you are hungry it is a nice place to stop and eat. Three tacos for a dollar, and dollar beer. It is a nice place to sit outside, rest if it is hot, and watch the people going by while having a bite to eat for a couple of bucks.

I agree, take a cab back to the border at night.

Health & happiness to all.

I also applaud Phordphan's excellent post.

One additional tip: after you finish the pedestrian mall portion of the walk (I. E. Starting on Articulo 123) make sure to watch your step as there is lots of uneven pavement. There is a tendency to gawk at all the interesting surroundings but you don't want to fall on your face and become one of the sights.

I have never had a problem walking, just take a taxi when I am lazy or carrying things.

Thanks, BN. Have you seen any MP girls with an ample bosom? . Me gusta las chicas con chi chis muy grande, por favor.I would say that the selection of girls at a Tijuana MP pretty much runs the gamut. It depends on the size of the place and the number of girls they have working. I was in Tijuana last weekend and early on Friday evening, before things got too busy, I stopped by Mermaids just for kicks. There were two fellow mongers just in front of me so I followed them in for "the parade". They lined the girls up (10. 12 in total) and they all stepped forward to introduce themselves. I wasn't specifically focused on breast size, but I feel sure that you could have found what you were looking for. If not, go across the street to AB. There are many women in there with large breasts and asses (not always natural, mind you, but when in doubt just buy her a ficha and do the patented Country John "squeeze test".)

JPF offers up good advice, and I should have mentioned it in my original post. Most places offer a no haggle special. You will likely pay a bit more, but the upside is that price for the girl and the services you want is negotiated up front. That way, you can just relax and enjoy yourself once the session starts. I would use this option unless you are a good negotiator, can speak some Spanish and are prepared to walk away if you can't get the price / services you want.

Gentlemen,

A couple of questions regarding Sentri-card.

1. I need to come up with a reason to justify applying for a sentri-card to my SO. Any suggestions? I sometimes have to travel to Canada for work-related trips. Is sentri-card applicable for traveling back from Canada as well?

2. I am American but my usual Tijuana trip-buddy is a Permanent Resident (Green Card). Can he apply for sentri-card as well? Since we car-pool when we make Tijuana runs. It gives me no benefit if I can use the Sentri lane and he still has to use the usual line. Any idea if he would be eligible as well?

Thanks in advance!

Ok thanks! Do they mail you a "Global Entry Card" afterwards? Or how do you use such priviliage at the airport?I did not get a "Global Entry Card", you scan your passport at the Kiosk and the Kiosk is not like any other Kiosk I have ever seen. After you scan your passport, the Kiosk will take your picture and scan your fingerprints (same fingerprints you get scanned for during the Sentri process). Because you scanned your passport before you left the US, the Kiosk magically has your flight number coming back into the US. You confirm the flight number and where you been and answer the US Customs questions (no need to fill out the US Customs form anymore). The Kiosk will print you out a receipt and that is what you give to the US Custom agent. The whole process takes about 2 minutes tops.

There is currently only one Kiosk in Miami International, but there are several at LAX.

The following is the latest update from the Web site:

"NEXUS and SENTRI Members May Utilize the Global Entry Kiosks.

(01/03/2011) All NEXUS members can enjoy the benefits of Global Entry at no additional cost through using the automated kiosks for entry at participating airports. NEXUS members will need to check their status in their Global Online Enrollment System account, as they may need to submit their 10-fingerprints or any other necessary documentation in order to receive Global Entry benefits. (GOES)

USA citizen and lawful permanent resident SENTRI members can enjoy the benefits of Global Entry at no additional cost through using the automated kiosks for entry at participating airports. SENTRI members will need to check their status in their Global Online Enrollment System GOES account, as they may need to submit their 10-fingerprints or any other necessary documentation in order to receive Global Entry benefits. (GOES)

Mexican national SENTRI members can apply for Global Entry benefits at no additional fee. Mexican nationals will need to submit a Global Entry application and pass a thorough risk assessment conducted by the Mexican government before receiving full Global Entry benefits."

I read here: http://www.sandiegored.com/noticias/3396/SENTRI-pass-will-soon-cost-a42-25/ That the San Diego / Otay / Calexico SENTRI offices will begin a new cheaper fee for SENTRI. Another article I read said the fee cut wouldn't be permanent and they weren't sure exactly when it would start.

You have to do the interview and car inspection here, but if you find yourself in Texas you can use the SENTRI lanes there.

I went to the SENTRI website and it still had $122. 50. I asked the dude at San Ysidro swiping my passport card when the new price was in effect, and he didn't know. He did say the new SENTRI office in the shopping center right next to the CBP office would be opening soon.

Regarding the Global Entry card, I think you have to have your SENTRI card completely processed first. Once that's done you apply for the GE card.

[In other border news, the new pedestrian bridge over the freeway is almost done and will be opening in April. At that time, the old pedestrian bridge will permanently close. The new bridge is farther from the border (it is at the corner of the Jack In The Box and the end of the Trolley platform) but it has a combo steps and ramps so the net time walking may be the same for those preferring the stairs]

Gentlemen,

I finally took the decision to get a Sentri Pass this week. I went the online application route and it takes under an hour to fill the application. Although the price is still listed at $122, At the end of the application I was only asked for and paid $25 application fee using the online secure payment system and got confirmation of the receipt. I am assuming the rest of the fee is only due after you are granted the conditional approval.

The next steps are to keep checking the website every few days for conditional approval and once that is obtained, Schedule the interview.

Although I added my car as a conveyance in the application, since I never take my car south of the border. Can I ask them to remove it from my application at the time of interview?

Thanks for sharing all the wonderful information here!

I applied too- a coupla weeks ago. It only took a week or less for my conditional approval to come back. I set up my in-person interview, but the earliest dates were in March.

I'm not sure I like the idea of lowering the fees, that will mean more people and that means longer lines.

A Sentri office at San Ysidro is an excellent idea, I can't figure out why they put it in Otay Mesa in the first place.

Finally, I can't figure out why they would have build that new spanning pedestrian bridge when walking over the building is already the norm. It works, why spend the money to build a new bridge? Is it because they don't want unfettered access to the building's roof for security issues? Before I knew about the over-the-building access, I used to just walk up a block from Jack in the Box to the street that goes over the freeway, then walk over that then down the stairs and along the duty free shops to the border gates.

Now we get a birds eye view of their car searches and goings on. This should be a move in our favor as it should shorten the number of steps with the zig zag up and down eliminated.

He could wait up to a couple of hours depending on the time of day and a number of factors. The sentri ped line closes at 10 pm in case you have the pass and are planning on crossing back with him you will have a very long wait most likely on your friend. Good news is that the lines are usually much shorter after 10:30pm.

There are times when the NO DOC line is actually faster than the regular line (for those with passports, etc). However, there are other times when there is no agent to receive these people and they have no recourse but to stand there and wait until an agent opens a line for them!

The main problem with having "no documents" is that you never know what to expect!

I was in Tijuana this past Saturday.

The street scene is still light, not as many ladies out but still some lookers.

I spent most of the day in Hong Kong. There were many ladies, but to me it looked like the quality was down. Hey, it only takes one, so IMO HK is the best day scene. The Edcanes are now Hong Kong sashes and wearing black. Still really no interaction with an old f*rt, nor anyone else that I could see. Some hot young ladies though. Unfortunately I picked a spinner from Mexico City to go arriba. She made all the right moves in the bar, light kisses, sstp, but in la cama it was don't touch this, don't do that. When that happens I just roll over and say,"Well get the phuck busy then". She didn't understand the words, but got the point. She had to work her a* off. I was brought up to the main stage in the bar for Tequila shots. If you were there sorry guys, it wasn't my idea. Anyway, every time he sees me he is pouring Tequila down my throat. He can't quite believe an old f*rt like me can down so much. I went through AB and not much happening, as usual, in the day.

At night for a while I went between AB, HK, with an occasional trip through LC. HK seemed to be a sausage fest, with the quality again down, but it only takes one. The quality of AB was fairly good, but I'm starting to not like the hand on the hip, come phuck me attitude in AB. LC was fairly busy, but no one really caught my eye.

I actually spent most of my time after about 10 PM in Chicago. My treat for the night there was another from Mexico City. She was very pretty, and a great set of legs. She was an excellent performer, although she had a bit of a gut when the clothes came off. We had a good enough time she wanted my phone number, etc, of course she did not get it. I sat in one of the chairs in the alcove, and was soon accosted by another lady who had been giving me the eye all night. I bought her a couple of drinks since she was giving me a good lap dance with sstp. She said she was borracha, and horny. She also was lactating, and pulled a boob out and shot milk about three feet when it hit the wall. I don't know how far it would have shot, but it looked like it could put your eye out. Masero came by for another drink and I said see ya. A great set of legs, and if your like man mades, nice boobs. It was hard to believe that she a kid that recently from the hardness of her body.

As usual I took the Amtrak, and trolley. For those who take the trolley they are working on the tracks. You had to exit at 24th Street, and take an express bus to the border. It was probably faster than the trolley since it made no stops. On the way back Sunday morning it was the same. The down side of that was when we got to the 24th Street station, we had apparently just missed the trolley and had to wait 30-40- minutes for the next one. If you are taking the trolley back and have to be on time somewhere, I would leave a little earlier than usual.

Both ladies started out with higher numbers than $60. One quoted $80, and the other $70. When I asked if they thought I was a chump, they didn't understand, but when I said good bye, they both immediately dropped the price to $60 without even saying anything else.

It was a good trip for a quickie, and will be back for Stuperbowl with a couple of amigos who are flying in for some partying.

Health & happiness to all.

So you basically follow the pedestrian line once you get to the border. BTW, it is a heck of a long ride from down town with lot's of stop signs / lights and traffic to deal with. They once you are there you have to deal with finding a "secure" place to chain up the bike. They will steal the seat or anything else unless you have it parked in front of a bar like Adelita or pay a lot attendant to watch it.

The problem may be their location.

If you absolutely must stay in the ZN, the my friend NE's advice is sound.

If you want to stay outside, then there are a couple of worthwhile places to check on Revu. Espana and Caesar are good choices, although the lady that runs Espana has bags of attitude to spare. But they're clean, safe and meet your price point. Don't know how they handle bikes. I think Nelson dropped their prices, so that's a good bet. And their restaurant is pretty decent, and their little watering-hole bar is a good place for a quiet drink. Rooms are pretty dumpy.

The Ticuan raised their prices, or so rumor has it, so they'll be a bit outside your range. But much nicer than the average Revu hotel. Around $60, IIRC.

There's a place on 6th, IIRC, about 3 blocks east of Revu, corner, south side, glass front. Don't remember the cross street or name but somebody here probably knows. Clean, safe, decent beds, $20 / night. They'll probably lock up your bike in the back.

Also try Villa Zaragoza. 7th and Revu. It's a drive-up style motel. Should be around $40 and you could put your bike in the room. Of course, the maid may steal it!

Headed down to Tijuana again as was in SoCal anyway, this time at the weekend. Train from LA to SD, then trolley, all very easy. Trolley is under construction, but not a major inconvenience, there is a quick (ish) bus transfer, but there are 2 buses, on calling at the other stations and one express to SY.

Got there maybe 5pm or so, still light. Briefly wandered around looking for a good exchange rate and toyed with the idea of trying a different hotel. Eventually decided the reliable 230 pesos at Hotel Santa Cecilia (right by the arch) was still about the best blend, the 270pesos big hotel on Revolucion just down from the arch seemed a little far to drag chicas, based on other reports the couple of other cheaper options aren't much cheaper, and might lack such things as hot water. Plus I'm comfortable with the security and attitude here. I think if you got the slightly bigger room (330pesos, I think) there'd be no trouble taking a bike up there, assume 2 flights of stairs won't trouble you. Set out on the prowl.

1) Leandra from my last trip (http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?2223-Streetwalker-Reports&p=1032511#post1032511) , around her usual haunt on Art. 123 near Ninos Heroes. She said "how much you going to pay me then, I said "200pes, we go to my room", she wanted to stay there, so she asked for 150pes for her and 50 the room. Brief covered BJ (said she had a sore throat might be able to get BBBJ otherwise) , then went straight in through the quite well used back door. Got there a little after she'd clearly had enough. Saw her in passing later, she wanted to go again, I suggested the following morning, like 10:30, she agreed, but didn't seem to be around. Very happy with her service, she's tall, well stacked and looks pretty good, late 30s. She wanted the light off this time which I thought a shame. Good service, reasonable looking older broad.

Wandered into HK, need to buy some crappy $4 beer on the way in, but don't need to tip the guy on the door. Saw a lively shaving foam show (actually saw 3 over the evening, one was upstairs and included the girls undressing a guy and dragging him onto the stage. I'm fairly sure they'd have blown him but somehow he just wasn't responding. Younger guy in good shape, even. Also saw Elizabeth on stage as I wandered in, she'd dyed her hair black, but couldn't mistake her trademark grab of a guys head and thrusting her ample assets into his face everytime she gets a tip. So pretty often. She vanished shortly afterwards and I went in and out of HK several times looking for her overnight, was eventually told she'd be there maybe half an hour later about when I had to leave Sunday morning. Looks like she'd be really fun in the room.

2) Some nasty old toad called Jasmine, was stood on Constitucion opposite the police station, promised the earth so was hoping for good service like Leandra, but this was a fail all the way. In the room suddenly everything cost extra and she didn't smell good either. Turfed her out unfinished. Must stop agreeing to these.

3) Young cutie called Perle also stood on Constitucion. Came to my hotel having agreed 30 for all holes. 300 pesos was fine. Good attitude, took it well, nice CBJ to start, if she's around try for a BBBJ, I expect it'd be worth it. I'll look for her again if I return any time soon.

4) Another young thin cutie called Anna in the Alley, Constitucion end, HK side. Wanted 60 for being cornholed in my room, but was OK with 30 (+6) in hers. Nice room, mirror on the end that she was facing, she started out with a pretty nice BJ too. Quite liked seeing her face as I got to it, she didn't appear to be in pain or anything, still not as willing as Perle.

5) Eventually brushed off some pushy attention in Adelitas, but did buy one a drink. 3 of them teamed up on me to try to persuade me to take 2 of them for 100, mucho everything, plus 12 _each_ for the room! Then (as I was basically shattered at that stage) , I was just coming back to my hotel when some fairly low grade, older lady sort of got in my face and started on me, but also wandered her hand into my shirt pocket and relieved me of the remaining dollar bills I'd had there for tipping. Can't have been more than 3-4 of them at that stage, but I figured I wasn't going to get far yelling at her for doing it. She offered $10 in the room, so I figured I'd just skullfuck her in revenge. She did a reasonable job, I think she was high as a kite as she seemed very confused. I thought she was coughing up blood at one stage but just drool and lipstick on the tissue. Gave me a few moments of hesitation though. Basically took half my toilet roll and put it in her handbag too at the end. Perfectly adequate service all in all, I'm beginning to wonder if maybe I'd actually blown all my singles in AB.

6) Next morning couldn't find Leandra, but ended up having a beer back in Adelitas. Anna Maria came over and put her moves on me, I went to the room for 50 plus 12 and predictably on the way out 2 different cum boys tried to hit me up for a tip. Service was fine, Adelitas girls seem to take their time and leave you satisfied. But why so many fake boobs in there? Nearly every lady in there has them.

Journey back uneventful, left maybe 45 mins later than I'd planned, as breakfast at Taco Bell hadn't been served with any urgency at all, and I'd been looking for either Leona again or Elizabeth in HK. All in all, while HK was quite a bit busier, I didn't really notice much different about the Saturday night than my other trips which have all been Mon / Tues. Good, because I was worried it'd be a big sausage fest in HK as some I think have posted in the past. Maybe it's the winter? Although nobody seemed to have told the weather which sat around 80 degrees daytime and wasn't really cold enough at night to merit much more than a shirt.

Wandered into HK, need to buy some crappy $4 beer on the way in, but don't need to tip the guy on the door. Saw a lively shaving foam show (actually saw 3 over the evening, one was upstairs and included the girls undressing a guy and dragging him onto the stage. I'm fairly sure they'd have blown him but somehow he just wasn't responding. Younger guy in good shape, even. Also saw Elizabeth on stage as I wandered in, she'd dyed her hair black, but couldn't mistake her trademark grab of a guys head and thrusting her ample assets into his face everytime she gets a tip. So pretty often.BTW, you can trade in that crappy beer for a non-crappy beer.

That's just it, once on stage, the dick no longer responds; been there, done that, in the Banana Club in Okinawa; lesson learned.

Elizabeth is one of my favorite dancers, as well as Ely. Elizabeth has so much energy on the stage and the energy does carry over to the room. She is a little bigger than the other girls, but her passion and the spirit she shows for the customers make up for the size deficit. Because of her liveliness, she does get a lot of tips and regular clients; I'm one of them.

Headed down to Tijuana again as was in SoCal anyway, this time at the weekend. Train from LA to SD, then trolley, all very easy. Trolley is under construction, but not a major inconvenience, there is a quick (ish) bus transfer, but there are 2 buses, on calling at the other stations and one express to SY.

Got there maybe 5pm or so, still light. Briefly wandered around looking for a good exchange rate and toyed with the idea of trying a different hotel. Eventually decided the reliable 230 pesos at Hotel Santa Cecilia (right by the arch) was still about the best blend, the 270pesos big hotel on Revolucion just down from the arch seemed a little far to drag chicas, based on other reports the couple of other cheaper options aren't much cheaper, and might lack such things as hot water. Plus I'm comfortable with the security and attitude here. I think if you got the slightly bigger room (330pesos, I think) there'd be no trouble taking a bike up there, assume 2 flights of stairs won't trouble you. Set out on the prowl.

1) Leandra from my last trip:

http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?2223-Streetwalker-Reports&p=1032511#post1032511

Around her usual haunt on Art. 123 near Ninos Heroes. She said "how much you going to pay me then, I said "200pes, we go to my room", she wanted to stay there, so she asked for 150pes for her and 50 the room. Brief covered BJ (said she had a sore throat might be able to get BBBJ otherwise) , then went straight in through the quite well used back door. Got there a little after she'd clearly had enough. Saw her in passing later, she wanted to go again, I suggested the following morning, like 10:30, she agreed, but didn't seem to be around. Very happy with her service, she's tall, well stacked and looks pretty good, late 30s. She wanted the light off this time which I thought a shame. Good service, reasonable looking older broad.

One question:

What place of av constitucion was Perla?

Misterroc, Very similar experience to yours. The conditional approval came in a week. I now need to schedule my interview in the next 30 days and that should pretty much do it!

Now only if I can think of any valid reasons to justify why I need a Sentri pass during the interview (I don't have work, business or family ties to Mexico) if asked about it. Any suggestion for a valid reason?


I applied too- a coupla weeks ago. It only took a week or less for my conditional approval to come back. I set up my in-person interview, but the earliest dates were in March.

I'm not sure I like the idea of lowering the fees, that will mean more people and that means longer lines.

A Sentri office at San Ysidro is an excellent idea, I can't figure out why they put it in Otay Mesa in the first place.

Finally, I can't figure out why they would have build that new spanning pedestrian bridge when walking over the building is already the norm. It works, why spend the money to build a new bridge? Is it because they don't want unfettered access to the building's roof for security issues? Before I knew about the over-the-building access, I used to just walk up a block from Jack in the Box to the street that goes over the freeway, then walk over that then down the stairs and along the duty free shops to the border gates.

Any suggestion for a valid reason? It didn't appear on what time or date the appointment was when I was in the office. I saw some just walk in without an appointment and one dude that was quite late for his; they did not seem to care. I would call and ask just how important the appointment time is, and once conditional approved, could you just show up for a walk-in.

As far as reasons to go down there; I had a couple of thousand of response ready. But the only question that I was asked, was if I had business in Mexico. I just replied and told the officer that I visit my friends in Tijuana 2-3 times a month. That was about it.

That building will no longer be there around 2016 or so. It is being replaced. Although the building looks like a monstrosity, CPB grew out of the office space years ago. And they're doubling the number of pedestrian booths inside, and car lanes outside.

The trick is going to be how to do this without slowing down the crossing. I suspect they'll do most of the stuff at night making my 10 minute-from-Adelita-to-my-car trip late at night impossible.

Stayed at the Cascada Hotel the first night after reading a post by Mike123. Nice (by Mx standards) remodeled rooms for $40 US. No extra charge for girls up to my room, as I took three of them there during a 12 hour period. The last one went home at 3AM and I slept until 12 noon. Wanted to stay on another night, but the idoits that remodeled the rooms place non-access plates over the electrical outlets. No electric hookup to recharge my cell phone.

Got up, checked out, and had breakfast by 1PM. Ran into an American that lives down there and stays at the Leyva. He took me by the hotel and I previewed several rooms. I figured for $21. 50US (discounted for no TV) and they had electrical outlets, that I could at least stay one night.

I was WRONG. They friggin noise at night from people yelling, and cars parking was just too much. I did use the room to entertain another three girls. I decided to call it an early night and went to bed at 1230AM, but after an hour and half of people yelling & car noise in their interior parking lot, I finally got dressed & packed and checked out.

Cell phone fully charged, I headed back over to the Cascada, checked in a 2AM. By this time I was WIDE awake and head out over to one of the clubs until about 4AM. Went back to the hotel and sleep (QUITELY) until about noon.

I'll post more about the girls and other adventures later.

The Leyva next to Chicago is probably as good as any for your needs. Sent you a PM with more info.

Most likely not too well, as most clubs close at 3AM. Only street action, and most girls leave before then, at that hour. 10-3 is the best bet for night action.

I was able to re enter HK after going upstairs. Browsed around for a friend. When I didn't find him, I headed over to Adelita around 4:15am and they let me in. Maybe they are not enforcing the curfew on weekends.

I hadn't been to Tijuana in 15+ years. Until last Monday & Tue. Yes, HK & Adelita were unofficially still open after 3AM, and yes MOST of the girls were gone.

Also, don't remember the name of the two bars at the end of the street. If you go out the back of Hong Kong turn left to the end of the street. There are two bars on either corner (will someone please help the boy here with their names). Anyway. The one on the right as you are facing away from HK is open until 6AM. I know because I was talking with a HOTTIE from Hermosilla named Ashley until 430AM. Gave her my room number and she "PROMISED" to come by after work.

Also, the hotel above this bar had a nice little street gal working late afternoon & nights. Her name was Jackie / lyn. I was there two days and paid for her company three times. She was lots of fun and almost full GFE. No BBBJ Also met with Isabela & Guadalupe, both were also lots of fun. Had another gal but don't remember her name, and wish I could forget that I actually paid her for the BAD service.

I shamefully must admit, that I although I had read the FJ boards for several years, I really did not prepare myself for this Tijuana trip. Hell, I had even copied MIKE123 reports (all the way back thru 2007) into a word document. I was going to use his great reports as a sort of landmark & girl guide.

How did that work. It didn't. As I had my head up my ass and left CA without it. Oh well, I did stay at the Hotel Cascada in their newly rentivated rooms. I even noticed those Kama Sutra painting on the walls. Oh well, Mike123 thanks for the great reports just the same. To bad I probably won't get to use them for another 15 years.

At the end of 40 hours, I had 6 encounters, and all but 1 was lots of fun. Also, I crossed coming & going at Otay Mesa POE. The cab ride in each direction was $10.00US, and the wait at the border upon my return.... well with 8 people ahead of me, there really wasn't a wait. I crossed back over at about 330PM on Wed.

So I'm planning a trip to Tijuana at the end of the month. It will be my first. So I've read over the posts fairly well and there's none that really compile the information. The prices are all over the place and the break down of each place is with less detail I was hoping for. I've went to San Jose, CR many times and I guess I'm just an idiot but I didn't realize Tijuana was so close to the US. Anyway I would really love a break down of hotels, descriptions and pricing. Bars, Mps, and strip joint. Description and pricing. If anyone has been to San Jose would love to hear the differences. I thought at first Tijuana was cheaper when reading posts but then when I read more in depth I realized that generally prices are negotiated for 30 min not an hour. Plus unless it's an MP I want to go back to my hotel, which I'm hoping I can find a fairly nice comfortable one. I'm going to stay for around 4 days, probably check out the beach and a few other things. I'm going down with a friend of mine who lives around Los Angeles which is where I'll fly in. Oh also info on this train to trolley I hear about from Los Angeles. Website links would be great. Also a heads up for any laws that I should be careful of breaking would be cool. In general I'm a late night wanderer which I know isn't the safest thing but I like to find the really gritty local clubs.

Also I've been to a lot of places around the world and no matter how cheap the girls are I still like trying to pick up girls that aren't working, is this as easy in Tijuana as other places around the world or because of its close vacinity to the US does it not really work as well. I call it the Justin Timberlake effect, because in most countries they think the average American makes 500k it turns me into Justin Timberlake which certainly helps my confidence. Ha ha well can't wait until I'm down there and able to post about the mayhem. Oh also will cell phone get international charges there? If I could answer my cell phone I might not come back, that's all I need for business!

I am surprised cascadas was quiet enough for you to sleep. I wonder if the hacienda de santiago (across from the old tropical) is quiet?

If anybody knows of any of these places that are doable I would like to know about them. This is coming from a guy who travels with a nature sounds mp3 and ear plugs. Low frequency noise (bass) can never be blocked out no matter how hard your try.

I am still looking for apartments for rent in Tijuana or a decent apt / hotel set up like the leyva. If anybody knows anything please let me know. CL's is hit or miss and I don't fully trust it for Tijuana.

There are tons of hotels and living arrangements in Tijuana but finding the right fit is very tricky. I've visited a number of places but most lacked one thing or another to make it not doable.

You can take the train from anywhere south of LA's Union Station to San Diego. Get off, cross the street to America Plaza. Take the Blue Line to San Ysidro. The trolley stops right at the border. I understand there is some construction and they put you on a bus for part of the trolley ride, but that's temporary. The biggest problem with the train is that the last one departs SD around 6:00pm. So, any decent trip is an overnighter.

The main bar scene in SJ is similar to Tijuana. Blue marlin is a lot like Adelita. Biggest difference in strip clubs is that the SJ strip clubs get prices anywhere from astronomical to stupid for the lady drinks. HK is a comparatively reasonable $7 each. While a lot of guys pay $60/30 min in Tijuana, if you have even the tiniest bit of negotiating skills, you'll get $40 and $50 quotes all over the place. And it's no problem doing hours. And it's NOT double the 1/2 hour price, despite what you may think and what they may say. $70 / hr is very do-able, sometimes less. Depends on your intended target.

If you want seriously local clubs, go to El Fracaso or Rio Verde on Articulo 123. But if you feel the need to start wandering outside the ZN at night, don't. You're just begging for trouble.

If you're looking for a comfortable hotel, there are plenty to choose from. If you're looking for comfort in the middle of LZN, not so much. Look around, there are some posts here. But if you stay outside LZN, it's going to be difficult to get girls to go to your hotel. Some will, most won't. Tijuana is pretty much an on-site kind of experience.

Forget your Justin Timberlake fantasies. The bloom is off the rose. Tijuana residents have all seen gringos. Hell, half of them have lived in the US. Picking up locals is not all that easy. Just because they have lots of hookers, doesn't mean the Mexico is not a conservative country. Boffing locals is going to take a bit more time and energy than a few-day trip to RJ. But don't take my word for it, go to Las Pulgas and hit on a few chicas out for the evening. You could get lucky. From your post I assume you speak fluent Spanish.

Many cell phones will allow roaming access from within MX. But it can be really expensive. Check with your carrier.

Don't bother with the Tijuana beach. If you want a bit of beach, head down towards Rosarito. They're a bit nicer there.

Depends on your intended target.One needs to keep in mind those prices usually don't include the hotel room which is an extra $15 the $1 for the towel boy and maybe a drink for the chica. Not to mention at least $20 for any extras like BBBJ.

I've also heard that the knock sometimes comes at 20 minutes...? for that kind of money that's crazy. If you do the hour would you need to pay $30 ? For the room unless you are staying there ? $70 an hour seems like a great deal....where HK or AB ? I've never heard of that before.

I've never done a bar girl. I am too wimpy to let $80 go like the wind knowing that I could buy a TLN in other countries.

I would like to try it on my next trip though. I was thinking maybe just do a girl every other day and let it be a bar girl. One member told me they perform better than street girls. Other guys swear by SGs and say bar girls are total scammers. IMHO Tijuana is a place where regulars benefit the most.

headed down friday afternoon, around 4, which is later than usual for me. the taxi stand by the mcdonald's. was empty and the stand further up had a line of people waiting for cabs. so, i decided to walk to the zona instead. it is a fairly easy walk, the only thing to contend with is getting through the gauntlet of never ending "chicklet" children and the "hello, my friend" dudes.

have not been down to the zona for about a month, so as soon as i could smell my favorite taco stand, i started salivating like a mad dog. after two crispy pork tacos and a orange soda, i was ready for prime time; hong kong.

i really like the late afternoons and early evenings in hk; plenty of women and a lot less sausage. scored my favorite booth and my first visitor was the tequila guy, speedy. i am going to attempt to claim speedy as a dependent on my taxes this year; the irs will have fun with that one for sure. speedy got me started and everything went downhill (in a fun way) for the rest of the afternoon and evening. i had speedy fetch my drinking buddy and a personal favorite; ali. ali and i (mostly i) discovered new ways to drink tequila shots (pictures below). i must say that the pussy lips tequila drizzle was my favorite. however, the ass crack tequila drip had a nice kick to it!

at one point, speedy got on the back stage and was looking for volunteers for free on stage tequila. i about crippled ali climbing over her in the booth to get on stage. all i had to do was get on my knees, hold on to two hot ass women, and open my mouth; easy cheesy! that was my first stage appearance of the night; little did i know it was not the last.

at one point (not sure when) , ali and i decided to retire to the room for a bit of rack operations. i turned over my booth to another dude that likes the same spot. he is dating the hot little dark chica and we always seem to joust for the same booth. in the hotel, i do like the remodeled rooms, especially the red mood lights in the ceiling. apparently the dude that knocks on the door when the time is up does not get it when i yell,"maņana." because, he kept coming back!

when we went back into hk, i asked ali if she wanted to work the crowd or continue drinking with me; drinking was the call. because i lost my booth, we ended up at a booth next to the front stage. ali's friend came by and she looked good and thirsty; she joined us. low and behold, speedy took to the front stage with a full bottle of tequila and was once again looking for volunteers. this time, ali and her friend, both half drunk (ali fully drunk) , grabbed my happy ass and all three of us were on stage performing acts of debauchery, and getting lots of free tequila as well (one pic below). some other dude on stage tried to join the action and ali's friend would have no part of it; swatted him away. the message here is: hey dude, is you want to dry hump a lady, at least buy her a beer.

i decided it was time for my favorite drinking snack; the tijuana hotdog! are these things addictive or what? am i alone on this one? i had one and then headed into tropical; my number two place in tijuana. the place is trying to cater to americans because at one point during the night, not sure at what time, the music goes from hispanic to american dancing music. when i went in there around 10-11, the dance floor was full of people dancing to american music. plus, there is always a 2 for 1 special going on, which makes the place more appealing. tropical seems to be the only real dance venue in the zona. after having a couple of drinks with my favorite tijuana sweetie, i had yet another tijuana hotdog and headed back to the border.

i'm really easy to please and rarely complain, but this is how the border experience went. it was around 12, i think, and i walked through and was looking for the sentri line. the chunky bastard at the desk before the line told me that the sentri line ended at 10, and i needed to follow in the regular line. the regular line was short, so to me, it was no big deal. that was until two guys walked in the open lane next to me and they were ahead of me, they told me they were in the bus line. i asked the chunky bastard,"what the fuck," in those exact words. chunky walked over and pointed out a hand printed sign that said something to the fact,"the sentri line is closed at 10 due to the lack of officers available." i replied,"this is absolutely bullshit, you can support a bus line, but you can't support paying sentri card holders!"

i raised hell with the agent that i went through with, and then came to the realization that i was about to cross that fine line that the consequences could be worse than better if i continued my ranting and raving; so i quit and moved on. however, i plan on e-mailing the immigration world about this silly injustice to the sentri card holders.

great reporting at hk options & tp.

borber patrol sentri after 10 pm is a toss-up to say the least. the baggage check machine is turned-off.


headed down friday afternoon, around 4, which is later than usual for me. the taxi stand by the mcdonald's. was empty and the stand further up had a line of people waiting for cabs. so, i decided to walk to the zona instead. it is a fairly easy walk, the only thing to contend with is getting through the gauntlet of never ending "chicklet" children and the "hello, my friend" dudes.

One needs to keep in mind those prices usually don't include the hotel room which is an extra $15 the $1 for the towel boy and maybe a drink for the chica. Not to mention at least $20 for any extras like BBBJ.

I've also heard that the knock sometimes comes at 20 minutes? For that kind of money that's crazy. If you do the hour would you need to pay $30? For the room unless you are staying there? $70 an hour seems like a great deal. Where HK or AB? I've never heard of that before.

I've never done a bar girl. I am too wimpy to let $80 go like the wind knowing that I could buy a TLN in other countries.

I would like to try it on my next trip though. I was thinking maybe just do a girl every other day and let it be a bar girl. One member told me they perform better than street girls. Other guys swear by SGs and say bar girls are total scammers. IMHO Tijuana is a place where regulars benefit the most.

* The editor is messing me up. Sorry for the weird punctuation. I can confirm that HK charges $25 for an hour in the room. $15 is for 30 mins.

I was in Tijuana Saturday and Sunday for Stuperbowl weekend. There were questions about it.

The SG scene is back to normal after the holiday's. Same ladies in their usual spots. I didn't partake, but there are some VGL looking ladies on the street.

All the bars were back to usual also.

Hong Kong was crowded but my amigo had a bad experience there. The b*tch that he was with ordered some Buffalo wings without him knowing. When they showed up he said that he did not order them, and the masero said,"No, but she did". He said,"Well then she can pay for them". He told her to get off his lap and started to leave. He then said "You didn't pay for your last drink, and you owe eight dollars". Another masero agreed that he had paid, along with our other amigo. As he was walking for the door the "rentacop" becomes involved and it was easier to pay the eight dollars than to become involved with the Policia. I will check with him and see if she remembers her name. It seems like a new potato chip scam. Anyway lots of women, just watch the scams that seem the worst in the zona. About the same scene as usual even on Stuperbowl day.

Adelita's also had many ladies back. Stuperbowl Sunday it was easy to find a table. IMO, Adelita's talent is a bit down now, although there still are some VGL looking ladies, I enjoyed walking through hottie corner in the past.

Las Chavelas seemed like the talent was up. Several VGL ladies in the crowd.

Chicago Club was about the same as usual. It has become my club of choice after about 11 PM. I sessioned with a lady Saturday night and it was a good session, but not great. Sunday night I was with a lady that greatly enjoyed sex. Probably the best sex I have had in Tijuana ever. She is not the best looking, but not ugly either, but a very hard body, with bolt-ons (not really my preference). Did I mention that she loved sex? I will be back this coming weekend and if I see her I will ask her if she wants me to post her name. I also met the owner who is a nice youger guy who really cares about his club and giving great service to us mongers. While there are not many women there, there are always a few that are VGL. I think becuse it is so slow that the ladies service there is somewhat better. They seem to know that they have to try harder or the men will not return.

We made it through many of the local clubs around the block, but there is nothing to report. Didn't see the elusive "diamond-in-the-rough" unfortunately. Most of them have "two-for-one" specials though if you want cheap drinks and can sit through loud ass local music.

All in all Stuperbowl weekend seemed like any other non-holiday weekend in terms of both women and mongers. It is easier to get a lady during the game though since many mongers actually watched the game.

I left the hotel at 5 AM Monday morning, and was at my desk in Anaheim at 7:10 AM. (about 120 miles). The line at San Ysidro for cars was crazy though. They said it was 2. 5 hours to cross.

I probably wouldn't have posted since I didn't offer much in graphic details about my encounters, but some were wondering about Stuperbowl weekend. To me it seemed like any other weekend.

Health & happiness to all.

The prices don't include the hotel, but the prices don't in most other countries, either. And the hotels do charge double, which sucks and does put a crimp in the finances.

Sometimes the knock comes early, sometimes late. My experience is usually later than earlier. YMMV. But just make a point of checking your watch right as you pay the desk man. And raise a stink if they knock early.

IIRC I've had lower rates at both LC and AB. I've had reasonably good lookers walk up in AB and immediately offer $40. So, that's probably a $60 hour with a bit of persuasion. It's been a while, cuz I rarely go to HK any more, but I think I've done $80 hours at HK in the past. Heck, I know one older lady in a dinky bar who gives me 300p hours.

Yes I did stay at a hotel on Ave. Revo. I always overnight on the Tijuana side.

It took about 10 minutes to get to the border since there was a cab immediately passing the hotel. It is amazing how many cabs run up and down Ave. Revo. At all hours. I wondered about that the night before. The line was moving well thru Immigration and took only another 15 minutes. I think since it was Monday morning they had all lines working in the booths. I heard on the radio coming back that the San Ysidro car crossing was 2. 5 hours. Also the driver set the maria and it actually should be under $5. 00 for the fare. I want to say it was about 45 MP, or about $3. 87 at the 11. 90 exchange rate. Being the big spender that I am I still gave him the five dollars.

I was in my car and hit the freeway that was wide open all the way, doing about 80 to stay up with the traffic. No sh*t the stars were in alignment that morning.

My friends who left later in the day said it was a 2. 5 hours wait in the walking line, so they paid the five bucks and took a van, and it was still one hour.

Some day I'll have to check into the Sentri pass, although I usually leave at 7 AM on Sunday and up to this point there has not been a wait.

Health & happiness to all.

Oh, and I'm new here. Planning a trip to Tijuana in May. Was there last May. Had a great time for the money. Plan to have an even better time now that I've discovered this board.

Preferred HK over AB. Spent time with 2 SGs (don't remember there names) , and got the best GFE lap dance of my life at HK. Only had one day available last year. This year, probably 4 or 5. Not sure the money will last long enough. LOL.

I'll probably ask for some recommendations after I've read a few more postings and have some intelligent questions to ask.

Gentlemen, I'm going to Tijuana next month and looking for some answers.

I will reach there by Fri midnight and wondering about the hotels near or around Zona Norte.

Security: We will be traveling with our passports, so wanted to know is it safe to leave them behind in the hotel. Any recommendations on a hotel that's walking distance of Hongkong and other clubs? I would want something that is safe and bonus if I can pick up a street girl and take it in to my hotel room (not sure if she would agree to it). Any other guidance that you folks can give around security? Like the streets to avoid and stuff.

Since I will reach Tijuana by Fri midnight I would want to know of a place where I'm going to stay and not waste time trying to find a safe hotel.

Thank you very much.

Going to be in San Diego a couple times over the next 2 months, and am looking to make a run for the border. Planning on an overnight stay on at least one occasion. Is Hotel Casadas worth a shot?

http://hotelcascadas.com/index.php

I've read reports on this forum that seem to vary from calling it a total dump to a decent place that was recently remodeled. So what is the current scoop? I'm thinking of getting one of the high end rooms (Jacuzzi or Master Suite). Certainly not expecting a 5 (or even 3) star hotel experience, but I would hope that any roaches will at least be well mannered. I'll only be in Tijuana to 1) eat. 2) drink. 3) poke, and 4) sleep. The quality of the room does not matter much to me for items 1-3, but is it quiet and clean enough to sleep off a night's debauchery? Also, is the Master Suite worth the extra $10?

Hey guys, I was wondering if someone can tell me what is involved with the vehicle inspection. I have my Sentri interview in a few weeks and am considering getting my vehicle registered for Sentri so that I can go to Baja, ect. I saw online that the driver and passenger windows should not be tinted. I have a new car, black exterior, black interior, and the windows in question are lightly tinted. How strictly is this enforced? How closely do they check? The tint job is very clean, barley noticable. Should I just give it a shot? Or should I get the tint stripped prior?

I think that they would not be concerned with windows that are lightly tinted.

Worse case would be that your car does not past the tinted window test, but you still get the ball rolling with the Sentri card. Then if tinting was a problem, you could return at a different date to get the car re-inspected. Either way, you will not get the Senti card the same day as your appointment, it will come in the mail in about a week.

Looking at the rooms in the Web site, none of the short time rooms look anything like the pictures in the Web site. The only concern I would have is noise, but the higher up, might be better.

Is there any white american women working in brothels or the street in Tijuana. How about Boys Town.You might run into a few but IMHO it is better to stay away from them. A lot of them are hardcore drug users or possible criminals escaping US authorities. Most of the local girls are just hard up on their luck with a few trouble makers in the mix.

Maybe stateside would be a better place for what you want. From what I've hear west coast prices are fairly reasonable if you know where to look. I don't.

There is plenty of white American women stateside if you look at places like BP (although usually at a higher cost and some risk that comes with mongering in US).

It's been awhile since I got my own room, but none of the cleaners ever came by to knock on the door. YMMV with a chica being a clock-watcher, but I didn't notice that it was an extra issue. When I brought a chica to the front desk I just showed my key and told them I already had a room.

As a side note, I did give a dollar tip for extra towel and sheet for each new session.

But any idea about the safety of taking a room there in the hotel right over HongKong?

How much do they charge for a room anyways?

The chicas pay their usual attention to the clock and leave after 30 minutes. I suppose they would stay longer if you paid them more or if they really liked you.

When you leave Hong Kong and go upstairs you still check in at the reception desk, but you tell them your room number and then you go on your way. I don't know if they log the girls name and the start time or not.

When I stayed there in December the room was $35. Taking 2 chicas upstairs costs $30 so its a pretty good deal.

However I'm not staying there overnight ever again because its too loud and it was imposible to sleep. Also there's no heat / AC. And when I was there there was no hot water either.

I am Portuguese and I am at present time in the US. Going to Tijuana do you have to go through US immigration going to Mexico and comming back (do I need a Mexican visa)?

CPThere is no border patrol check point going INTO Mexico. You just walk through the turnstyles and you are in. Nobody really cares about who goes INTO Mexico.

On your return into the US you will need whatever credentials you used to get into the US the first time (passport, etc.)

But, again, there are no checkpoints going into Mexico.

P. S. I always thought you were Brazilian.

SSAnd DO NOT FORGET YOUR VISA, if you entered with one. (If you entered through the visa waiver scheme, then ignore what follows).

Some years ago, I went into Mexico with my current passport, forgetting to bring along the old one in which my visa was.

I had to wait at the border till some guys from my hotel in San Diego broke into my room safe, took the old passport and brought it to the border. Took 3 hours. Glad I was not staying in LA.

Another story about crossing back: last month I went 2 days in a row to Tijuana. First night back around 12 am, the immigration officers checked my papers and jokes with me, as an European, very friendly, says good bye in my mother tongue. Nice.

Following day, a bit earlier, same guy at immigration: Suddenly became suspicious: "again in Mexico? What are you doing there?" I just thought best to say the truth: "went to the clubs"Hhe looked at me dejected, and almost threw back the passports at me.

Morality, as said before on this board, say the truth, it is not illegal to go the te clubs and do there was it legal in Mexico.

Haven't been to HK in months but recently went two times and was not charged cover. When did they change this or was it just a fluke?

Also noticed the big new taco shop on the corner. I love the tacos from the cart but had to try the new place out. I thought the tacos were really good, but I'd have to do a side by side taste test to see which is better. Anyone else try this place out?

Mexican Immigation office at the border. 50 feet after crossing the US side of the border. US resident have to request special form for stays longer than 72 hours (old rule).

The way I understand it is that under US Law, if you are not a US Citzen, you can be denied entry for admiting to go aboard to do something that is illegal in the USA. I always warn my Euro friends about this before we go to Tijuana. I will have to find that again in writing. There are plenty of reasons you can give.

Amazing! I'm going to try the pelvic thrusts next time!Good luck on that pelvic thrusts thingy. I passed through immigration on Sunday evening and here was the dialog, with a male officer:

Him: are you bringing anything back from Mexico?

Me: A lot less pesos than when I entered.

Him: Hopefully that is all you brought back (smiling).

Me: Could not agree more!

Him: Have a good night (still smiling).

But it is not illegal to go to a strip club in the US, is it? What I am saying is that if you start inventing a story of some sorts, (visiting friends, going shopping etc.) if the officer wants to catch you lying, he will. He knows better than you (I mean me, the occasionnal european visitor) and will ask, where, who are the friends, which restaurant, which shop etc. And you will sink quickly. If he had asked me what I had done in the club, I would have said: had a few drinks, and enjoyed the show. Clearly no more details. But he knew he had no ways to catch me, so gave up.

In my experience, HK only charges a cover on Friday, Saturday, and occasional Sundays. If you're there during the week, entry is free. I generally stay away on weekend nights, but go in and out freely on other days.

If you are not a citizen, and they ask you what you were doing in Mexico, you can just reply that you were mainly "drinking and dancing". I've used this one before, and it usually gets a chuckle out of the border guards. At the very least, it shows that you are being honest, rather than making up some crazy story about the purpose of your trip. (I consider an answer like this to be telling the truth, even if the dance was called the "horny drunk gringo horizontal lambada dance".)

As a citizen, you can be a bit more brazen in your answers. Country John used to answer "having sex with beautiful women" when asked about the purpose of his trip, and I myself have also replied "beer and girls" to the same question. One reason for being somewhat cautious, even as a citizen, is that CBP can actually take notes and add it to your file. No doubt, the next time you cross over, the notes are available to the next guard. That's why I wouldn't be quite so overt about the true purpose of your trip. Once you have been flagged as a person of interest, crossing the border will become much more painful. While I do not have a Sentri card, I've found that having a US passport card identifies a person as a kind of a "frequent crosser", so to speak, somebody who crosses over enough to know (a) that passport cards even exist, and (b) the rules and procedures for getting back in. In some weird way, having a passport card seems to give you a bit more credibility to these people, but of course they sometimes still ask you the silly questions.

I also want to caution everybody about computers / thumb drives / cameras / smart phones / cell phones. According to current case law, these things are fair game for CBP to search, even without probable cause or reasonable suspicion of any wrongdoing. While the number of searches that they do conduct of these electronic devices is quite low, they certainly can do it and in some cases keep the information for a few days while they examine it for evidence of illegal activity.) Many companies now warn employees about taking computers across borders, and be careful about your cell phone / camera / smart phone also. Make sure there are no images or content on there that you would not want a judge and jury to see!

Regarding non citizens exiting the US and entering Mexico, I agree with most of the posters here: the Mexican side of the border is a joke, with a few military guys randomly searching folks who bring in large bags of stuff. Nobody asks for, or checks, ID. The vehicle lanes are largely the same, and the only vehicles that get stopped are the ones that are chosen at random for a cursory secondary inspection (again, no ID), just a quick check of the vehicle and you're on your way.) One thing to be aware of is that the US CBP does occaisonally stop people as they are EXITING the US, just before you get to the turnstile. This happened to me once, and the CBP guys did the full interrogation on what I was doing, checked my bag, checked my ID etc. If it happens, just answer the questions truthfully, play it cool and let them do their thing, as this is really "security theater" taken to its most ridiculous level. In my case, they seemed really disappointed when my bag wasn't full of guns or cash wrapped in cellophane. Just another horny, thirsty gabacho on his way south of the border for a little R&R!

Most common questions that I've been asked at the border:

(1) How long have you been out of the country?

(2) What was the purpose of your trip?

(3) Do you have anything to declare? (helpful tip: don't respond to this question with,"my genius", as nobody but me will be amused with your response!)

(4) Where are you going today? How are you getting there?

(5) Where did you stay / go while in Mexico?

(6) What do you do / what is your occupation / where do you work?

If you have answers for these questions then you will be fine. Remember to answer all questions truthfully, but also that you are not in a courtroom so you do not necessarily have to give them "the whole truth".

Guys, please keep the useful posts coming. As a EU citizen who has been going more or less once a year to Tijuana from SD, I can confirm what Blue nose said: Just tell them the truth, or at least part of the truth. I said" went to the clubs", and the officer knew that he could not get much more from me, and let me go. If he had asked what I actually did, I would have said, had some drinks, and watch the shows. I always go "empty handed", that is no laptop, Ipad, computer, . Just a phone, just the necerssary cash, and, yes, I abstain to take any picture.

The only problem I ever had, as described in a previous post, is when I forgot to take along my old passport which was carrying my visa. I must say that the head of the immigration control office on duty that night, was extremely civilised, friendly, and actually let me wait in his office, where he kept me company while waiting for the passport to be delivered. We had a very interesting chat on what life was at this border, about his family etc. My negative preconceived ideas about those guys being rude and uneducated just were untrue in this case. Of course, he was the most senior officer on duty that night, and I guess this explains.

got down to tijuana around 3:00, walked over to the zona, and had one huge crispy pork taco (usually have 2, but this one the dude poured on the pork). then off to hk.

one of the first girls in hk i ran into was lucy. lucy is a hostess, pretty, and a great drinking partner. we have a history of drinking episodes (mostly fun in nature). i recently cut her off because she was drinking her drink, and then mine; the girl can drink. she reported she was having a great day. of course i asked why. she pulled out money and drink tickets from one side of her bra, and then more from the other side. i was happy for her. i could tell she was half drunk because she tried to put it all back in only one side of her bra, she then laughed, and said that one tit is now bigger.

i decided to spend time in the hotel with naomi, the first time for me. i met her in the early summer when she was pregnant. her english is very good, a tad older than the others, but quite sensual. i always learn things about hk and the other clubs in the zona from her. again, hk does not charge the women to go to the hotel in any manner; confirmed that tonight. i have a hk bucket list, she was on it, and she was well worth the time and money.

other clubs. tropical was busy by 6:30, and there was a few hotties in there that i have never seen before. it was in the early evening, so hispanic music was the venue. las chavelas also had its share of hotties early on, but the music was a tad too loud for me. adelita had a smaller crowd, but then again, it was early; but still some fine women were available.

so at around 8:00, i decided it was time to go (been through this scenario more than a few times). i found a different hotdog stand that offered 7 different hot sauces; tasted them all. chose the orange cream hot sauce; outstanding. i head back to hk to get my jacket, which i left at the front reception. putting on my jacket, and out stumbles drunken lucy, on her way home.

i asked lucy if she was hungry, and she said yes. i took her to my new favorite hotdog stand, and ordered two, because i wanted another. while hanging on to me with one arm, lucy wolfs down the hotdog with her free hand. she then decides she was still hungry, then chomps on my hotdog, which was fine, but my fingers where in the way; i will bruise up tomorrow for sure. after the hotdogs, lucy announces she had to [CodeWord134] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord134). and she wants to go to la malquerida to [CodeWord134] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord134), and have a couple of drinks; insisted she was buying. i said,"hell yeah, let's go!" so much for leaving at 8:00.

went to la malquerida and the place was packed at 8:30. there was a band playing. i really have mixed reviews on this place; sometimes it's a dance place, not a dance place, or some other venue. lucy followed through on her word, she bought 4 drinks (2 each) for us. we were leaving, and i planned on putting her in a taxi and giving the driver 50p to take her home. we got outside, and lucy announces again that she had to [CodeWord134] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord134). so she wanted me to escort her to the bathroom back into la malquerida. she was hanging on to me for dear life on the way. i dropped her off at the bathroom curtain and waited.

10 minutes later, no lucy, and then 15 minutes later, still no lucy. i'm thinking that she passed out in the john, or sick, or both. now i'm walking around trying to find someone that speaks english in order to help me find her. using my best spanish, which sucks, i was saying," problema amiga baņo por favor ayuda." i exhausted all my spanish in one damn sentence! no one responded, guess my pronunciation sucked. so now i'm standing at the bathroom curtain yelling her name; no response. a few minutes later, she comes out, looking good as new, with her mother! she introduced me to her mother and she decided to stay; i left!

bottom line; never a dull moment in the zona.

Thanks! You need to take the bus from the airport, I think it is 992, to Ketner & Broadway. That is just across the street from the Amtrak Station. Walk across the street to America Plaza trolley station, and take the blue line to the border.

When you arrive follow the people that walk up the ramp, to the left of the immigration exit, walk over the freeway and down the ramp. When exiting the ramp turn right. You will walk through two revolving gates. After the second there will be yellow cabs. Tell the driver you want to go to Adelita's. It will be $5. 00 When returning just get a cab and tell the driver la linea, and it will be another five dollars.

Time getting back on Sunday depends on what time you leave. I usually leave about 7 AM and it is usually about 15 minutes at most. Later in the day it can be up to two hours. The trolley takes about 45 minutes to get from the border to America Plaza, and the bus I don't know how long it takes back to the airport.

Have a great time.

Thanks! Another thing to add to the prior post, is that might want to have $5 with you when you leave the San Diego Airport. When you catch the 992, right outside the baggage claim area, you can get a $5 DAYPASS. Just tell the driver you want a DAYPASS ($5). Then you can just use that pass to ride the bus and then get right on the trolley to Tijuana and then take the trolley back from Tijuana all with the same ticket.

I had a very interesting experience going from the US to Tijuana Friday night:

I was stopped leaving the US to Mexico by the CBP, my passport was checked. It took 2 minutes and then I was on my way.

Comming back 12 hours later I was checked again and was asked what I was doing in Mexico: my answer was: going to the clubs, having some drinks and watching the shows. As I was empty-handed the CBP was looking into my pockets: I simply had nothing. No cell-phone, no camera, no credit-card receipts, simply nothing. After 10 munites I was admitted back to the US.

Be careful out there.

Well, sounds like TomJackin, Carlos P and myself were all in la zona on Friday evening, and that we all had interesting, albeit different, times. I arrived around 4pm and took a cab to Revolucion. From there, I went for a one hour massage at Massage Azteca (Revo & 2nd). It's a good way to start the evening, especially at the end of a long week, and you can take a shower and clean up a bit after the massage. Following Aztec, I went straight to HK which was not crowded when I was there. Lots of girls, but not the usual Friday night sausage fest. Just hung by myself and watched the show for a while. Some good lookers on stage. Was approached by the usual assortment of girls trolling for fichas, but I wasn't in the mood for it so I sent them packing.

It's interesting at HK: I feel like it's turned into more of an AB than it used to be, with many of the women asking directly to go to the room (never mind the privados or the VIP room). As I recall from years past, it was never like this and although you could certainly go with a woman to the hotel cascadas, this was more the exception than the rule. Now I seem to get propositioned all the time and, in passing HK on the street, I see a lot of girls and their customers going back and forth to the hotel. It used to be that the HK girls were viewed as "pricey", meaning that they would ask $80 for what a "10" at AB would charge $60. I always figured that had something to do with it. However, last night one of the girls who approached me (she was young, pretty, thin etc.) wanted to go upstairs for $50. Thought it was a very good deal but I just wasn't ready yet. Anyway, it's just an observation about HK and perhaps I am mistaken.

AB was not crowded at all, and there were not a lot of women there while I was present. Spoke with Izabel de Pueblo, but I didn't really want to session with her so I sent her packing. I spoke with one gentlemen in the club who said he had been in Tijuana since 1pm, spent $180, and had nothing to show for it. Just fichas for the girls and bottled water for himself. This is the true definition of "ficha fucked". Don't fall into that trap!

Took a quick spin through Las Chev, but they had a live band going at that time so the place was noisier than usual. I really do like it there, but the place is so loud that it drives me crazy. Some nice looking girls there but I couldn't stay too long. Didn't make it to Tropical, but I'll pass through on my next visit.

Finally, I felt the need for a pipe flush so I did a very nice session with a SG whom I have known for a long time. She is blond, with carmel skin. 22 years old and stands outside Gloria Bar. A very nice girl, great service and very pleasant personality. It was early but I wanted to get home before the big rain storm hit so I headed back to la linea. Only a 5 minute wait around 9pm, and I went right through. Sounds Like Carlos P got singled out for a very thorogh inspection, both directions, but fortunately I avoided that.

Carlos, did you do / say anything to draw attention to yourself or did you just have a bad night? What is your US immigration status? I'm wondering if that had something to do with it.

Anyway, following my post a few days ago, I notice that the DHS has now posted signs, along the fence with I-5 as you walk towards the turnstiles, outlining what I posted: people are subject to search / questioning as they are leaving the US; electronic devices are fair game for search (I. E. Download all your stuff and then sniff through it with special software) and you're basically fair game for arrest and civil / criminal penalties if you refuse to go along. I do believe that the DHS has overstepped its bounds on this one, but it will take some time to work all this shit out in the courts. Even then, my guess is that the courts will eventually side with DHS."security" (or "security theater" as I call it) seems to trump civil rights every time in the post-9/11 world.

In the interim, continue to play it safe: take only what you need and make sure that your electronic devices contain nothing that you wouldn't want the whole world (judge, jury, employer, family members, friends etc.) to see. If you must take naughty pictures, take them and then email them back to yourself from an internet cafe in Tijuana, then erase the picture. It won't truly "erase" it of course, but it will allow you to get through a cursory check of your phone. Even better is to leave your phone in the US, or to swap out the SMS card for a clean one before you cross. If you're a frequent visitor who absolutely needs a phone in Tijuana, consider buying a no contract phone at Wal-Mart for $50 and just using that in Tijuana so you can leave your expensive smart phone in your car. There are, I'm sure, other technological "work-arounds" that can help you avoid the prying eyes of Uncle Sam. Perhaps other people can post some of their ingenius ways to get around all this BS. Fundamentally, these people are pretty brain dead so I'm sure we can come up with something if we use our collective brains. They are counting on people not knowing / understanding the laws, so let's not fall into that trap!

Final note: just as I was approaching the Syg-Venture parking lot on the US side, I almost got hit by a huge DHS bus. A big, brand new expensive bus filled with deportees who are being deposited back into Mexico. Lots of new faces and people in uniform at the border, lots of expensive new equipment, as our southern border takes on the look and feel of a militarized border. All that's missing are the machhine gun nests, and I'm sure we'll have those within a few years. Guys, I know I am cynical, but the day will come when every person entering or leaving the US is searched, photographed, fingerprinted, questioned and genearlly abused by our wonderful, bankrupt, inept federal government. When that day happens, you'll find me living in Colombia or Costa Rica, surrounded by gorgeous women, thumbing my nose at Uncle Sam and with no intention of ever returning here. Look me up when you're visiting those places. In the meantime, have fun and stay safe out there!

Hi Blue nose.

I am Portuguese and I entered the US on a normal Visa-Waiver.

I am legal in the US and I legally left the US. I did not even talk to CBP and they simply stopped me, asking to see my Passport. I produced it, got questioned and left the US.

Comming back I was obviously on their "to-do-list" and I was questioned and searched. But I think that there is nothing illegal entering the US with emptied balls. I was searched for a mobile phone and camera but I had nothing! I had lefet everything on the US side of the boarder.

I have the impression that the CBP is reading even this forum in order to get informations. I hope they enjoy it, going clandestinely over to Mexico. At least they know then whome to fuck. In Mexico.

Anyway, following my post a few days ago, I notice that the DHS has now posted signs, along the fence with I-5 as you walk towards the turnstiles, outlining what I posted: people are subject to search / questioning as they are leaving the US; electronic devices are fair game for search (I. E. Download all your stuff and then sniff through it with special software) and you're basically fair game for arrest and civil / criminal penalties if you refuse to go along. I do believe that the DHS has overstepped its bounds on this one, but it will take some time to work all this shit out in the courts. Even then, my guess is that the courts will eventually side with DHS."security" (or "security theater" as I call it) seems to trump civil rights every time in the post-9/11 world.I heard CBP is under serious pressure from the Mexican government to do this kind of search. As firearms are illegal in Mexico, the only people that have them are the cartels, and about 90 percent of weapons seized in Mexico are traced back as having been purchased in the USA. That's really what they are looking for.

Seems like you guys have been getting all the CBP attention lately, I'm feeling a bit neglected. Just kidding.

Actually, I really haven't had any questions in crossing back. I think half my latest crossings have had no questions, just swipe the passport and a waive thru, the other half were just token questions like "bringing anything back?". I only go over with the minimum; passport, car keys, money, and a camera (old school film camera, not digital).

When asked what I was doing in Mexico, I just say "Dinner and drinks", if they ask if I'm bringing anything back I just say "No". Although a couple times I've answered "indigestion", and got a laugh.

I don't know if they're looking for anything in particular, but coming back across late night I don't seem to get any questions, and when I've crossed on a Sunday afternoon, it's been minimal questions. Can't say that I'm doing anything special to avoid attention, so one's guess is as good as another about how they're selecting people for more thorough questioning.

MojoThere are fewer girls on Mondays, but that's a bit like saying there are fewer bees at the beehive. You'll still find plenty of chicas. Maybe some of the drop-dead gorgeous ones aren't working, but who cares? Plenty of talent available on the B Team.

I'm in lust for Tijuana! WOW, if that was the JV team was playing on a Monday, WOW makes Cd. Juarez look very bad. I felt like I was playing in the Majors leagues. Got to la zona around 10 made my way to Hong Kong. There must have been about 40 girls working, and every girl looked hot! I was in heaven, I didn't know were to start, Walked around got the feel for it and made my way to Adelita. Not so many girls but there was some good looking ones. I enjoyed it, just because it was lade back. Left and made my way were all the streetwalkers are and found one girl named Daniela I give here about 7. Tall and skinny easy on the face. The severs was good, but it was to fast for me. Back to HK and Adelita, I was having a blast tipping the girls drinking having lots of fun. I met Vanessa from Adelitas, worked the floor and asked to go arriba and away we went. She worked it good and her body was tight, not bad for a 28 year old, severs was good and enjoyed her company and give me her number for outside work.

I would like to thank everyone on the Tijuana forum; I enjoy reading all of your post. Thank you Sock 111, Phordphan, and Dreams I had a blast. I found my new runaway spot.

Thanks.

It is good to hear a newbie enjoy himself in Tijuana. I think some of us get a bit jaded over time.

Tijuana is still the best bang for your buck. The quality is still high and the quantity is still relatively large compared to other places. True, it is not the way it used to be back in 2000 when you could not even walk in the alley because girls would literally try to rip your shirt (remember those days) , trying to get you to come back and talk to them.

And the price cannot be beat. It is cheaper to fly here than Thailand or Brazil. If you are in SOCAL, I do not know why you would even have a girlfriend, just go to Tijuana twice a week!

Prices for the girls are still in the US 20-60 range as they have been for decades. No fluctuation as you see in Brazil.

Plus when you pay in pesos, you are, in reality, paying even less because of the favorable exchange rate.

In sum, Tijuana cannot be beat.

So flying out for first trip to Tijuana to mix with a business trip. Probably just doing 1-2 nights there. I still am confused about a couple things. It sounds like there are 3 places to get girls, strip clubs, bars and street walkers. I don't really understand why there would be street walkers if they can stay in a bar though. I'm used to Costa Rica / Del Rey and there are no street walkers there unless they are trannies. And then on the strip clubs it seems like nobody gets private dances, like to me that would be idea so you can kind of test the merchandise out a bit unless they're like $20 a dance but at 10 or less I think it would be worth it. Also I'm confused about this $1 towel boy fee I always hear about, is some kid going to be watching me screw? Oh yeah and the hotel situation, it sounds like it is virtually impossible to stay there overnight because of noise and nasty rooms. But I would think there's atleast one decent hotel within 5 min cab of the grotto. I guess I've been to a few places and have either never run into it (towel boy) or stayed away from strip joints because they were money traps. It sounds like here the strip joint is the place to go. One last question, what's the best way to cross the border for a newbie? Cab? Where do I leave the rental car?

Madison,

In Tijuana there is an alley in the middle of the red light district where girls stand along the side walk. They are not technically "street walkers" in a classical sense in that they only stand in a particular spot and they work a particular shift and use only a certain hotel.

You also find street girls along the sidewalk on streets adjacent to the main alley.

These girls stand right outside many of the strip clubs you have heard of.

Usually their prices are less than the women you find inside the clubs.

There is a map on this board.

Leave the rental car in the US!

One last question, what's the best way to cross the border for a newbie? Cab? Where do I leave the rental car?As a Newbie I would recommend you Do Not drive your rental car across. While it is certainly possible for some, I would advise against it in your circumstance. (for more reasons than I care to type here).

There are several parking lot options before the Border Crossing, on each side of the Freeway, just park your rental car there and walk across.

There is a metal gate and turnstile you pass thru to cross into Mexico, you continue walking for a short period and then come upon another metal gate and turnstile, you'll notice some people make a right-turn to continue walking into Tijuana, but you need to go thru this second turnstile and you'll see an area in front of you with a lot of yellow taxis. The guys line up and ask people if they want a Taxi, you can't miss it, the next guy up for a turn will come up to you and walk you to where his taxi is parked in the lot.

When he asks you where you want to go, you can say Adelita's or Hong Kong, they're both near each other on the same street.) If the taxi driver tries to suggest another place, like Purple Rain, just repeat the name of the place you want to go, these guys get a kick-back from other bars if they take people there.)

When you're done with your fun, get a Yellow taxi from in front of Adelita's and tell the driver you want to go to the Border (la linea, is the spanish term).

It's so much easier to just walk across the Border, you'll be glad you left your rental car in the USA.

Have fun.

Nice I'm excited, I figured on leaving rental back in the states, but thought the taxi would take us over. Maybe it's quicker walkin in then driving. Still nothing on the strip clubs? So again I know getting a lap dance is kind of stupid when you can take the girl upstairs and have your way with her. But if the dances are under 10$ I'm game for dances from 5 or 6 different girls and pick the best. I'll find out soon enough, hopefully it's not as bad in Tijuana as other border areas because I have a knack for wondering at wee hours in the morning looking for a good local dive. I hope my spanish will get me by, I know spanglish with no sex words. I guess I will just have to say clean my pipes instead of suck my cock. Ha ha

No comment on the towel boy? Is there really some kid handing out towels?

Are the dance clubs (legit) mainly American? Or 50/50?

The best reason not to drive, is sooner or later some cop will stop you and shake you down for money. If you are a gringo, you do pay more than the Mexicans. I have students that drive down and visit family, and because they have California plates, they get stopped as well. I also had a few cab drivers tell me stories, one cabbie even had to give up new running shoes that he just bought for his teenager.

Good thought, leave the car in the US. If you drive to the border and staying overnight, as soon as you exit the last US exit, go straight at the light. There is a duty free store on the right with parking available. When I stayed overnight NYE, I only paid $8. If you are going for just a few hours, less than 8, then the lot behind Jack off in the box is only $5.

The taxi will drop you off at Adelita, because they can get tickets for stopping at Hong Kong. Lap dances are $20 at HK, not $10, unless you have a coupon or VIP card. Once you step out the back of HK, you will be in street girl heaven.

The towel boy is the one that knocks on your door to tell you that time is up. He is not there watching the action. On your way out, they will ask you for a dollar. Last week, two asked me for a tip, and I said no problem, gave them each 5 pesos.

There is Caliente casino on the main drag, 'Avenida Revolucion', or 'Revolution Avenue'. If I remember correctly, the only game is slots, not a very big place.

Las Pulgus is the biggest dance place, further down from the casino. Very few gringos in the place, but I have only been 3-4 times.

Play is safe, do not venture out more than the Zona or Revolution Avenue.

Here is the map.

Are the dance clubs (legit) mainly American? Or 50/50? Do not take your rental to MX. You don't need the potential hassle from the cops. Your rental contract specifically prohibits entry into MX. And, depending on when you leave, it can be an easy 3 hours in line. Fugeddaboutit.

There are not taxis to take you across. Park and walk. Take a taxi to the clubs.

The only US-style strip club in the zona is Hong Kong. Some others have strip shows, but it's not the same thing. There are some kinda-sorta US-style strip clubs up on Revu, but the quality is suspect, the prices will be much higher. THey come and go constantly, so I'm not sure of the current crop. I think Amnesia is still going. There are a couple more nearer the zona on Revu, but don't bother wasting your time.

Lap dances are generally a rip. You have a private booth and you get a couple of songs. Usually $20. If you got to do that sort of thing, spring for a "Privado." Usually it's several lady drinks (often 6) in a bucket (about $42) , plus whatever you drink. You'll go into the room and pull the curtain or close the door. Until the lady drinks run out she'll dance and bump and grind and whatever. YMMV. Note that the girls often pour the drinks into the ice bucket when you're otherwise distracted.

You're better off, in Hong Kong, just feeling up the merchandise for a $1 (or 10 peso) tip. Buy a drink for someone and you get a bit more groping at the table. YMMV, of course.

Do NOT wander out of the zona during the wee hours.

The towel boy will fetch towels, I suppose. He's there to clean the room after you leave. It's not always a guy, but often it is. Leave $1 on the dresser.

In the Caliente casino on Revu, they have what the Mexicans call Bingo. It's what we would call a slot machine, with slight variations. You can also place bets on all sorts of sports. Other than that, not much.

There are a couple of gringo-centric dance places on Revu. I think Club Animale is still going. It's upstairs on the SW corner of Revu and 4th (?). Can't miss it. If it's running there'll be lots of music pumping out of it.

Las Pulgas is a Mexican-centric dance club up past 7th. Huge place, cover charge after 6 (?). Usually has a live band or two, recorded music, packed on weekends.

There are several decent hotels near the zona. They're primarily on Revu. Hotel Nelson is very close, easy walk to the zona. Very old, but it's OK. Farther south are Hotel Caesar and Hotel Espana. Both about $35 on weekdays and about $45 on weekends. Recently remodeled. They're a 10 minute walk (if you walk slow) or a 5 minute cab ride away.

It just seems they could make things a little more accomodating for gringos.

tijuana and cr are really apples and oranges. cr has an economy a fraction of mx, so the prices should reflect that, but there are way too many horny gringos running around throwing around stupid money. the copa prices at the clubs are a good example. but the chicas often aren't as business-like as their tijuana sisters. i think the overall higher level of education there contributes to more english speakers.

tijuana is a major border town, has (or used to have) zillions of gringos parading in and out of the zona, and the vibe reflects that. it is what it is by accident of geography. many of the chicas are from extremely poor backgrounds with minimal formal education. hence the paucity of english speakers.

now, having said that, gfe is most certainly available in tijuana, but you have to know where to look, you need some spanish and it really helps to be a semi-regular.

the odds of finding anything approaching gfe in the alley, picking a girl at random, is close to zero. my guess is this whole "quickie" thing started with poor locals coming into town with a couple of pesos and in need of quick relief. a 15 minute quickie isn't really the venue to obtain gfe unless you do a fair amount of repeat business.

with the amount of traffic in tijuana clubs, on the weekends especially, the hotties have no incentive to sell themselves. the customers tend to line up, and if you don't like it, there's somebody behind you who does. so, again, gfe can be elusive with the hotties unless you're a repeat customer.

you'll probably need to go to the less-popular bars and / or set your sights on the 6s and 7s, not the 10s. las chevelas is often a good place to try, but the ear-splitting bands can be very offputting. also, good experiences can be had at tropical (really loud music a problem) , las valentinas, la malquerida and playboy. they're not for everybody, but i've had some reasonably decent experiences at all of them.

Madisonguy,

If spending some extra money is not an issue, The easiest road to getting GFE session in Tijuana starts by going the escort route. There are a few reputed agencies like LLA, CTJ, MLB and Wizdom and you cannot go wrong with either one of them.

If you want to get the same service at a far cheaper price though, Repeat the same BG / SG a couple of times and see the difference!

I'm dissappointedly happy. But I'm defintely used to more of the GFE DelRey CR vibe. By far I would choose that over Tijuana.

Right now I think the GFE is a myth in Tijuana. I've been down to CR a few times, and have certainly enjoyed myself at HDR, etc. I remember on one trip chatting with some guys I met from San Diego in the Blue Marlin, and we were comparing the Tijuana bar experience and the Chicas. It seemed pretty unanimous that it was an Apples / Oranges comparison, each had its pluses and minuses, and each had it's opportunities for finding a GFE.

Glad to hear you had a good time for a first time, perhaps on your next visit you'll have more luck.

Well,"burrito vegetariano" is what Google Translate says is "vegetarian burrito".

It is interesting that you would compare Tijuana bars with the HDR in Costa Rica. While the HDR / BM is one of my least favorite haunts in CR, it is a must see for first timers. There are some great looking women there, but most of the 9's and above are Colombiana's with an attitude. The usually will not budge off the dreaded cien. I have pulled a couple of part-time college girls out of there, but it takes some work. For the most part, IMO the HDR / BM is probably more like the Tijuana bars in finding GFE's. You get much better service at the SL. Also, many of the casa's have some brilliant performer's.

I took ten trips to CR before my first trip to Medellin, and have not returned to CR. If you are truly looking for a GFE, with a beautiful lady, try Colombia. In the Colombia thread their are many pictures of the Paisa's, so you can judge for yourself. While money is a motivating factor, they do like sex. There Is not much English spoken there, which is a good thing. They have an area of town called Mayorista that reminds me of Tijuana. The rate there is $20. 00 per half hour, plus the cost of the room ($5. 00).

If I lived somewhere that I had to fly in, I probably wouldn't chose Tijuana, but have many friends who fly in often. I think that bars like Las Chavelas is one where you can find the GFE easier, but you must know some Spanish. My amigo and I both had ladies out of LC that had never been with a Gringo before, and both were very good sessions. Mine even had a carpet. Also some of the other bars, as were mentioned, will have a diamond in the rough. Most have two for one drinks also. You can go in and have a couple of drinks, on the cheap, and leave if nothing strikes your fancy.

I wouldn't count out the Chicago Club, after about 10PM. While not many ladies are in there, there are always a couple of good lookers. I have had some good luck out of there. I think they have to try harder, since there is not many Gringo's, and they would like the repeat business. Tropical is way too loud for me, and I don't usually mind loud music. If you like to dance though, it is a good place to go. They usually like to get a buck or two for dancing with you.

It seems lately that the HK has been getting worse with their rip-off tactics. Beware of the chips, and ladies ordering food without you saying okay As other have reported, they didn't get their change. If you give the mesero a bill that needs changed, look at his number so you can find him, if necessary. It hasn't happened to me, but only because I am down there so often, I believe.

I'll be down this weekend, and will report about what I see.

Health & happiness to all.

This is an interesting discussion. I can definitely see the similarities between the two. It is tough to tell which are better performers if you are strictly judging between SL and the Del Rey. I'd take a risque colombian or dominican girl over a mexican girl any day. However I've heard a lot of complaints about attitudes from DR and SL girls. In that sense Tijuana could probably compete. If you happen to find a good DR / Colombian chica in CR chances are the session will blow away any one you could have had with a mexican girl.

The budget scene is a toss up with my fav leaning towards CR but it's close. I was not impressed with the $40 and under scene in CR. The looks or attitudes suffered dearly. Just like Tijuana but in Tijuana there are gorgeous SW's. If you are a regular and can swing a good deal you can't go wrong for $25/30.

Tijuana is a way cooler town than san jose and food is way more affordable in Tijuana. IHMO there is zero party scene in CR. Most mongers shuffle back and forth between the SL and the del rey. The locals scene is pretty cheesy IMHO. Tijuana is a fun place to be but CR would be more interesting if you had $70/100 a day for day trips and excursions. Otherwise it's "slit your wrists" boring in CR.

What I want out of life is for mexico to get just a few good hoes. It's a fun country but mongering there is extremely frustrating. Point towards CR!

I think any place is going to be slit your wrists if you just sit in the middle of monger central.

Costa rica is by far the more beautiful country. 12 dollar bus rides on the coaches anywhere you want to see make it easy to move around. And you never see federales with machine guns pulling cars over.

The selection of women from all the surrounding countries make for a far better selection imo.

And I agree GFE is far more realistic to find. Hanging in the del rey is like hanging at adelitas.

There are all sorts of dance clubs and malls to meet girls too. I never got that feeling in Tijuana. Unless you are in your early 30s or younger the civies don't even look at you in Tijuana.

ok first off i was wrong. i fell in love on 2nd night. it was wonderful, and it happened to be with the girls i was waiting for on the first night but never got her freed up. and she fell for the same old pitch the rest of the girls fall for. unfortunately i'm out and can't seal the deal but perhaps i will let patience prevail and work it down the road. anyway i had an unbelievable second night there was just something about this chick and the way she moved that made me crazy. anyway i made the mistake of spending 3 hours in vip and by the time i was ready to fuck her i had already started falling out of love so in the future i will speed up my feelings of love. i probably should have just took her back to my hotel for the night, would've been the same price but i was just kind of super chill and having fun.

so i guess like everywhere else in the world there's those that are clock watchers and those that do their job great. and each girl will probably act a little different with different guys i would guess. but the shit hole corrupt country of mexico is far from the top of my list. i have never encountered such a corrupt system in any country i have been in. one example was at the craps table, first they were calling off winning rolls, taking money they shouldn't take, switching dice on hot streaks, and even after i prevailed and won they still charged me tax when it was over? what the hell is that bull shit. love to hear if anyone has been to any country that they take taxes out of the money u-turn into the cage.

last border crossing is fucking bull shit. proof that the people who make decisions in the us are a bunch of fucking morons. how the fuck do i have to wait in a line with a bunch of non-citizens to get back to my country? why the hell don't they have a different line just like the airport. if i ever make the trip over again i will only leave in the middle of the night, what a shit hole of a system they have there. ended up paying to take a bus which was even slower.

got to comment on artissty saying tijuana is more fun town the sj? i don't know if maybe you're hanging with the wrong people or something but sj has plenty of non mongering fun stuff to do. some of my funnest nights were clubbing at pueblo or other local clubs i stubled into. and sj is just as cheap if not cheaper. once i asked for a rum & coke for at a local club and they saide $6 usd, well the equivelant at least. i was like damn how do the locals afford that. well i soon found out, they brought me a new bottle of rum and a 2 litre of coke and a glass with ice. some how rum and coke meant i want to start my own rum and coke selling business or something. i think hands down sj is better, but i do have faith that tijuana has possibilities of living up to it at times.

i also totally disagree with the colombian girls being better. they only see dollar signs, as long as you have money that works but once that goes so do you. they're famous for it even within latin cultures. they are beautiful but in my opinion tend to be less affectionate and not as exciting in bed. obviously stereotyping but i've seen it true more often than not. i do think the tijuana girls are horrible sales women, but having to give the house 1/2 i can understand why. someone needs to open something like the del rey in tijuana, that would be awesome. then after that put all the policia that hang out around the clubs in a hole. what good are they if they don't even chase away the beggers.

probably coming with a little more detailed post soon with price and break down.

When I walked in the Del Ray in CR, the girls were yanking on my cock like it was a handle on a slot machine. It is really no different anywhere you go. Face it, you have ATM stamped on your forehead in any of these places! No need to compare place to place, because it doesn't matter in the long run.

You raise some interesting points.

Couldn't agree more about the Tijuana border crossing. It is the most fucked up border crossing I have ever seen. Regardless of the line, you never see all the booths manned. But there are always lots of guys standing around playing grab-ass and shooting the shit. Yet they complain about being understaffed. Typical government clusterfuck.

As far as Tijuana being more fun that SJ, not sure it's an apples-to-apples comparison. Tijuana is a huge border town, with all that that implies. SJ is not. I will say that, if you can get out of the gringo areas, SJ is an amazingly inexpensive place. I love your story about the rum and coke. Once, I took a couple of guys I met at BM out to dinner at a seafood place one guy knew. We ate really great seafood until none of us could move. $40 for 3 of us.

During my few trips there, I've had Columbianas, Ticas and Nicas. The Cs were probably better looking overall, but more aloof. Took a lot more yakking, chatting, etc, to get them to open up a bit. The Ticas and Nicas were close, lots of fun with both. Better than Mexicanas? Hmm. I can't say better, just different.

The house takes a cut of the privados. But the house takes none of the money they get for an arriba. So, if they tell you that they pay part of their arriba money, they are lying.

Actually, IMHO, Adelita is just like the Blue Marlin. A bunch of girls standing around waiting for guys to come up to them. I think the BM chicas may be a bit better looking, and less silicone.

The cops don't chase away the beggars because they're not really hurting anyone, and it may be their only chance to make a few pesos. Too many are scams, so I rarely give any money. But you just have to step around them and ignore it. It's part of the Tijuana experience. But the beggars in Tijuana are nothing compared to some of the horrific beggars I've seen in parts of SEA.

after i got a couple of tacos from the best stand in mexico (according to big john) , some dude approached me and was trying to promote the newly remolded el dulce club. he told me that there was 2 beers for $3, plus a tequila shot. i told him that i didn't drink beer, but i did drink screwdrivers; he said no problem. first off, i guess the bar is owned by the same owner as hk, who apparently owns half of the world, or at least tijuana. went in the club, and was impressed. some serious money went into this place. it was early, about 3 pm, so only 7-8 girls were in the place, a couple of hotties, and the others just ok. the place is narrow, but deep.

the guy brings my drink and shot and tells me $6, and my response was, wtf? he said that mixed drinks were $6, but the beer was $3. i said that he should have told me that information before hand, instead of saying on problem outside. and the tequila shot was nothing more than 5-6 drops of the cheapest stuff. either way, i then got distracted by the dancer on the pole platform and my blood pressure returned to normal.

the street girls were abundant! i never seen so many, they were almost double stacked. and this was in the early evening. it was definitely a renter's market in and around the alley.

las chavelas. i walked by at around 6:30 and heard regular dance music, so i ducked in there to check out want was going on. believe it or not, they had 6 topless women dancing on the bar, and they were all wearing tiny panties. after a few songs, the show was over, and they broke into two sets of 3s and walked around to get tips. then some woman sang a couple of songs, and then she walked around getting tips.

hk. slow in the early afternoon, the way i like it. sitting with ely, my favorite girl in the place. have not seen her in a while. found out she was recently married and no longer goes arriba. about broke my damn heart. but about 10-15 minutes later, and some tequila from speedy, it quickly healed. had to shift to plan b. i have been watching this tiny girl for months and i noticed that she seemed half crazy and she was a good dancer as well; i like both. i had one of the servers fetch her, and then it was game time. don't you wish everything was that easy? just have a server fetch anything that you needed; including women?

during a drink, tiny tina announced that she loves to 69. at that point, i about pulled a muscle trying to get out of the booth and running to the hotel room. after a playful shower, i laid down, and she did this cute "tuck and roll" move, and before i knew it, i had this wonderful slice of heaven in front of my face. she went at my cock like there was no tomorrow, and i returned the favor. love tijuana.

lesson learned: stay away from the corn and stick with the hotdogs.
