I thought I saw a YouTube video where someone mentioned taking a "public" bus into Zona Norte for $1, so it might just be 10 pesos rounded up to a dollar.

How often do the busses come around and where specifically do they drop off & pick up in the zona?The buses are located just outside the turnstile to the left when you enter Mexico from PedEast. They leave to Centro when the buses are full. Usually this means within 15 minutes. They let you off in Centro anywhere on Calle Tercera going from Ocampo up to Constitucion.

To return back to the border go to the corner of Calle Segunda and Constitucion in front of 7 11 directly across the street from Plaza Santa Cecelia. On that corner yell out " LINEA" and someone will direct you to the bus or just look on the window for one that says LINEA and double check when entering the bus " Linea? ".

".If you're trying to get to the Zona from the border is Calle Segunda and Constitucion the closest place where they drop off? I've taken that bus from the border a couple of times and remember getting off somewhere just off Revolucion and walking the rest of the way, but don't remember where they stopped.

You can choose Revolucion as your avenue or any avenues before it.

While that public bus system was being built on Revolucion there was a time when the rutas cruised down Coahuilla then turned left (towards centro) before Hacienda Hotel in the zona but I don't think that shortcut exists anymore or is needed since the public work has been finished on the bus system.

Just stick to Calle Tercera.

I've looked around but can't find too much about rocky point. Any info out there?Look under the Northwest Border tab. I've posted in the Rocky Point thread but it's pretty slim pickings down there. There are stripclubs and some escort action. Also, an alleged bar adjacent to Hotel Senorial where pros hangout.

Visiting for the first time:

1) can you rent a car in San Diego (US) and drive it across the border for a stay down there?

2) Are you able to rent a car when in Mexico?

3) Do you recommend renting a car, or just uber to the street scene, and bring the girls back?

4) Is it safe to walk late at night in the zone, to and from hotel?

2) Are you able to rent a car when in Mexico?

3) Do you recommend renting a car, or just uber to the street scene, and bring the girls back?

4) Is it safe to walk late at night in the zone, to and from hotel?1. You can rent a car in San Diego and Drive it across the Border only from certain Rental Car agencies that offer Auto Insurance in Mexico for an increased fee. I have never done this myself so I cannot tell you exactly how much it is, nor which Rental Companies offer this.

2. Yes, you are able to rent a car in Mexico but unless you speak Fluent Spanish I would not recommend it. Also, there are stories of Rental Car Agencies trying to claim damage on their rental vehicles that you may not have been responsible for.

3. If you are a first timer and do not speak fluent Spanish, I would recommend using Uber as it will significantly cut back on potential headaches, stress and problems.

4. As far as your safety while walking, it depends on which area of the zone and also depends on your hotel location. My first choice would be to take an uber. The currency exchange rate make the uber trips very affordable. 2nd Choice, take a taxi, but make sure you negotiate the price with the driver before you enter the taxi.

Also note, Vehicles with California / US License plates with Non-Hispanic drivers are targets of opportunity for the Police to allege various violations such as Illegal window tint, Failure to Stop at a sign, etc. And subsequently search for a Bribe aka "mordida."

4. Up to you and where you are staying. Tijuana is a city. Cities have crime but some people live in cities and never experience any crime. Up to you and luck I guess. Take common sense precautions and you will probably be fine.

4) Is it safe to walk late at night in the zone, to and from hotel?The only car rental place that will give you a Mexico waiver is AVIS. I have rented from them in San Diego and driven to Tijuana. Costs an extra 50-75 dollars. Better to walk over and get an UBER so you don't get stopped like I have several times previously or get caught driving drunk. Do not walk to the zona unless you want to get choked out and lose all of your belongings.

Even walking to revolution, you could encounter drunk locals. If your trying to live in Tijuana and accepted the risk that's different. But if your just visiting just take the taxi because if you stand in front of HK looking at your cell for uber at midnight, a lot can go wrong. Your head will be down, your phone will be out, the taxi guys will be begging you, and a dozen other people will be asking you for money since your standing still. Jump in the taxi for the hotel. And driving is another world of problems between insurance police getting lost.

Cadillac,

1. Rental cars cannot be taken out of state due to insurance, but if you buy Mexico's liability and comprehensive insurance, you will be covered.

2. Rental car in Mexico is very cheap, $1 -2 a day, but they will try to make you buy their insurance for $15-16 a day. Budget and National has rental offices ion Revo.

3. Street girls will not leave their hotels, only work out of their assigned hotels. Very hard to convince street girls to switch hotels left alone to go outside La Zona.

4. There are people late at night to 10-11 Pm on Revo and Constitucion and you can walk, but there are still risks of robberies and policia shakedowns. UBER is only $2-3 from La Zona to most places in Centro Tijuana, why take a risk?

Cascadas. Some people can stand a 2. 5 star room, but I can't.Try Hotel Rio Rita which has pretty swanky rooms at sometimes half the cost of Ticuan. Also, it's a much shorter walk to the Zona. The only drawback is you can't parade in an endless sea of escorts because once you register one, you're done for that stay. You could have her visit you 10 times but it's her and that's it. But if you're more about banging bargirls, I think Rio Rita works better and that's saying a lot for me because I'm a pretty loyal Ticuan fan.

Visiting for the first time:

1) can you rent a car in San Diego (US) and drive it across the border for a stay down there?It's no problem unless you wreck it or get it stolen. Just make sure you buy liability insurance for Mexico. You can get comparative rates at mexadventure.com. If you notify the rental car company that you are driving into Mexico most car companies will either charge you more or say rip up your contract.


2) Are you able to rent a car when in Mexico?Yes but the mandatory insurance will cost you out the ass. Don't be fooled by those $1/ day ads. Total bait-and-switch. Better to rent in the US.


3) Do you recommend renting a car, or just uber to the street scene, and bring the girls back?Unless you like paying morditas to crooked Tijuana cops, I would strongly recommend against driving in Mexico. Cars with California plates are a magnet for cops and they will make up an excuse to pull you over whether you've done anything or not. If you really are intent on renting a car, get one with non-California plates.


4) Is it safe to walk late at night in the zone, to and from hotel?Yes. The main thing you have to fear in la zona is crooked cops shaking you down--leave your weed at home. Unless you appear helpless to defend yourself, get drunk or act stupid, nobody else will mess with you.

I can see why you would be the last person the Tijuana chamber of commerce might hire. And Solo would probably be there best hire.

I'm as old white and gringoy as you can get. I'm in Tijuana just about every weekend having the time of my life (knock on wood) . Is there any way we could meet up and I could buy you some beer or the drink of your choice and spend some time with you. I would like to study maybe what it is your doing wrong. I think it would be some great information to include in the book I'm writing.

However if you are just writing fiction to entertain the bros. Please disregard my invitation.

3) Do you recommend renting a car, or just uber to the street scene, and bring the girls back?

4) Is it safe to walk late at night in the zone, to and from hotel?It is your first time. I recommend using Uber. It is ridiculously cheap. Street laws are fuzzy in Mexico. Sometimes drives stop at red lights, sometimes they slowly craw across while looking both ways. Many of the main boulevards are one way streets and you don't know it until you think you see people driving on the wrong side of the road. Lanes are fucked up and not clearly marked. Or they paint the new lanes but forgot to erase the old lanes. Hills are black diamond. Potholes will blow out your tires. Ever tried to change a tire at midnight in low lighting? Unless you want to drive down to Rosarito or Ensenada, just take Uber. Tijuana is not a cultural center. This isn't Mexico City. There is not that much to see.

If you hotel is adjacent to the clubs, you are okay. About 2 block north of the clubs is the beginning of Drug central where cops stop perps only if escorted by Marines. Don't go there. Otherwise, walk where you see a lot of people. If a street is empty, there is a reason for that. Common sense really. Regardless of whether you are in Afghanistan or Inglewood, you don't go to a location where the locals cleared out. There is a reason for that.

Just my opinion.

Is it possible to have sex with 50 yo women and what do you do if you're married to one. I went to the pool over superbowl weekend, and saw a bunch of 50 somethings in their one peice bathing suit, and thought "I could never have sex with any of these girls and they are my age". How do older married guys do it. Women age like shit. Any of you guys were married and got into the mongering world later in life because you wanted a hot young girl again, and couldn't have sex with your wife again. Any good stories.

Absolutely true. The insurance is not optional CDW like in the US and it can be $30-40/ day. What you think is a $10/ day rental ends up being $50/ day. Worse, The sites sell "insurance" which is completely useless, you still have to buy the insurance with the car. Bait-and-switch is an understatement. It's outright fraud by the booking sites.

I drive down a lot and haven't had a problem with this. If you look around, half the cars have California plates. I don't have an expensive car though and don't wash it a lot. Saw them pull over a nice clean Mercedes in front of me the other day. Poverty is power.

I've been jacked up by the cops four times. Outside of the Zona Norte, in which I will not drive at night, I do not consider CA plates a cop magnet. They've had plenty of opportunity to pull me over and never have.

Thank you again!You know, not to be a jerk, but all of this has been answered a billion times in the forum. So, RTFF. Also read the (dated) Brockton O'Toole's Guide. Guys who jump on here and expect to be spoon-fed information that they could have found themselves with a few minutes reading are often treated somewhat harshly.

Your questions indicate that you've read virtually nothing. Had you done so you would know that the downtown area of Tijuana, aka "Centro" is pretty small, and the Zona Norte (where the hookers hang out) is only a couple of streets. There is no reason for a noob to drive. You don't know the traffic patterns or rules and you certainly don't want to get stuck in a multi-hour wait to cross the border back into the USA. Again, you'd have known this had you read up a bit.

The scene in Tijuana is very club-centric, and very wham-bam-thank you ma'am. The standard session for a bar girl is 30 minutes, for a "paradita" it's 15-20 minutes. They will not come back to your hotel during their shift, and may not afterwards, depending on the girl. Club girls MUST use the hotel appended to their club, street girls usually, but not always, must use the hotel that they are posted up in front of. Again, a bit of reading would have answered all of this.

Renting an AirBnB is highly recommended if you plan on spending a day or two. Your only option would be to contact an escort service to send a girl, but be aware that many will not send a girl to a residence or an AirBnB. This is for the safety of the girl.

There is no answer to your WiFi question. Some places have good WiFi, other places it sucks.

Uber in Mexico is substantially cheaper than in the US. You can certainly Uber to the beach. The weather at the beach is particularly shitty right now, unless you like cold, wet and windy.

I'm still married and I guess my wife is 50 something. I have not had sex with her in about 12 years or so.

On the other hand I have a Tijuana GF. All she wants to do is cuddle all night. Many nights I will be trying to sleep and she starts to direct my hand inside her panties. I always considered my self a sex addict and dreamed of situations like this.

Any good stories.You have a different idea of mongering than me. It is not just about fucking 1 certain demographic. It is about variety. One day I may want to fuck a dark chick, another day a white chick. One day a goth chick. One day a fat chick. One day a chick with long hair. One day a chick with red hair. When I went to China I was looking for an old dragon lady to fuck.

I monger the same way that I eat. Yesterday I ate a garden salad; the day before, I ate a ribeye; today I will probably make chili-slaw-dogs; and I am thinking about taking a lamb leg out of the freezer for tomorrow.

I had the Mexican insurance, as well as the US full coverage, and both of their claims adjusters showed up. I was covered 100% and since my car was my second car, I just took the insurance check and blew it on a trip to Thailand.

But I never drove in Tijuana again.

I've been stopped a few times by the cops and never had a problem. They did search me and might have nicked a 20 off me once. Would not be fun if you had drugs on you. Used to be braver, but now I try stay inside, move quickly between clubs and Uber in and out. Never had a problem, but no need to invite trouble.I can't count the number of times the bastards have tried to shake me down. I've hand at least a dozen knives and 2 CBD vapes confiscated. A few months back, I mistakenly strayed into the "lady boy" section near Mutalismo and a couple of crooked cops shook me down. Found a vape and a knife. Threw me in the back of the squad car and drove to Hotel Coahuila. There we were met by 4 other cars. At least 10 cops piled out of the cars, took my vape, went inside the hotel for about 10 minutes, came out smiling and turned me loose. Tried to confiscate my cell phone but gave up when they saw it was locked.

For the benefit of those who don't know, it's all about the morditas. They don't give a shit about what's legal or not legal and the last thing most of the want to do is take you to jail--they only do that as a last resort when you have nothing on you they want. They won't bust you if you're carrying "contraband"; they'll just seize it and smoke it, snort it or sell it. In my case, they just wanted the vape (damn, it was brand new and full). So, the moral of that story is don't carry full vapes or expensive knives in Tijuana.

How much driving do you do in Tijuana? I've been driving there for maybe 10 years. I've been jacked up by the cops four times. Outside of the Zona Norte, in which I will not drive at night, I do not consider CA plates a cop magnet. They've had plenty of opportunity to pull me over and never have.I used to drive in Tijuana nearly every day but I no longer drive in Tijuana at all. Things got particularly bad during the Trump admin when the crooked cops were going past collecting moditas and just doing "revenge stops". I have a business associate who is highly regarded in Tijuana and can "fix" tickets. Once I was stopped for making an "illegal right turn" (total bullshit) and I called him while the cop was shaking me down. He gave the cop a tongue lashing and the cop hopped on his bike and fled the scene. But I just got tired of calling him or taking my tickets to him so I stopped driving in Tijuana.

Aside from crooked cop shakedowns, I've had license plates stolen (a local pastime) and wheel covers stolen (another local favorite). I just got tired of all the BS. Uber and taxivans are your friends in Tijuana. When I did drive, I rented a car in the US (would never drive my own personal vehicle in Tijuana) and I never got stopped with non-California tags. Maybe a coincidence but, if so, a large one.

If you've never been pulled over, you must look very Mexican or be very lucky.

One guy said to see how locals see American tourists like yourself, imagine yourself naked and covered with $100 bills. The locals are drooling for some quick cash when they spot a naive tourist. If you dress like an obvious American. T-shirt, cargo shorts and sandals, you look like a 2 legged ATM machine to the locals. If you are driving an expensive SUV or 4 wheeled jeep, they know you have lots of $100 bills to be able to afford those wheels. Solution. Look at what the local middle class Mexicans are wearing or look at AMLO and copy his clothes. . . Then you will likely avoid problems with the local policia and mugger community. . . If you are getting pulled over and shaken down, somehow you are broadcasting a "I am a walking ATM machine" signal to the locals. . . And they are trying to make withdrawals from your wallet! Drive a beater and dress and try to look like a local to avoid problems. Some people however cannot help looking like a target. Elderly and Asians come to mind. Natural targets for mugger ratero types. Typical target from todays news: Another Asian man followed, then robbed in Alameda by four African Americans. . . The Asian community in the Bay Area is being terrorized right now by repeat violent attacks and or.

If you've never been pulled over, you must look very Mexican or be very lucky.I've been pulled over 4 times by the local cops, as I said earlier, plus one alcoholimetro checkpoint and once by a Federal. I don't park overnight on the street, only in secure parking lots, so I've never had anything stolen off of my car. I also never carry contraband. In general, carrying a knife is illegal in Mexico, and vapes are a very grey area. When the cops do pull me over they don't find shit. Why give them a reason to further hassle you?

The fact that you actually received a ticket is interesting. Very few shakedown stops result in an actual ticket, as there is no point.

I drive a personal vehicle all the time, but I try to never drive after being out drinking and I avoid the Zona Norte at night. Too many drunk gringos in cars make the ZN a target-rich environment.

I do not in any way, matter, shape or form look like a Mexican.

In general, carrying a knife is illegal in Mexico, and vapes are a very grey area.In general, everything is illegal or legal in Mexico depending on the cop you're dealing with. I never go anywhere without my knife, including the bars. Chicas like to smoke weed so I carry a vape from time to time.


When the cops do pull me over they don't find shit. Why give them a reason to further hassle you?If they pull you over most of them will hassle you regardless of whether you have "shit". Knives and vapes just give them something to seize in lieu of cash so they can beat their chests and pretend they're real men.


The fact that you actually received a ticket is interesting. Very few shakedown stops result in an actual ticket, as there is no point.I have received several tickets over the years. If you get pulled over by a cop who's not a total crook, yes, he will issue you a citation. I just tore them up. They have no way of tracking them.


I drive a personal vehicle all the time, but I try to never drive after being out drinking and I avoid the Zona Norte at night. Too many drunk gringos in cars make the ZN a target-rich environment.In case anyone is interested, the mordita for DUI is $80. Or was the last time I received that particular shakedown. The "breathalyzer test" is the cop holds a business card below your mouth and says, "Blow," while he sniffs just inches above it. If he smells ANY alcohol on your breath, you're DUI.

Having said all that, the thing you have to realize about Tijuana is there is no consistency in anything. Nothing is uniform. If you get nabbed by a cop, what happens after that is entirely dependent on how crooked he is, what kind of day he's had, whether he got laid the night before, how much he hates Donald Trump, etc. There is no way to paint the experience of getting shaken down by Tijuana cops with a broad brush. So, what you've experienced, what I've experienced and what any of the other bros have experienced may be quite different.

Hotel Ticuan is much more a nice hotel, and has really nice jaccuzi suites. Rizo looks. Ok, but more a love hotel, the neon and shit would give me a headache to have to 'exist' there.

Cascadas. Some people can stand a 2. 5 star room, but I can't.From my trip of last Nov. my room in Cascadas looked ok but when I peeked under the bed sheet saw enough period blood to disgust me (EWWWWW bring you own towels). Fortunately I banged my mate just under the comforter which could have had who knows what on them (at least I couldn't see with my eyes).

I have had the cops do that "breathalyzer test" you describe. I think they have all done it. Yes, if they smell alcohol they will most certainly try to give you shit and intimidate you and try to convince you that any drinking driving is illegal. (Just for anybody reading, the law in Tijuana is. 08% = DUI and I'll post a link to the law if anybody wants it). But the "standard" mordita of $80 is way out of line, unless you're truly drunk. Back near Christmas I got pulled over and I did have beer on my breath. Long story short they guy got 500 pesos, the largest mordita ever, because I absolutely positively had to be someplace and had no time to dick around with him. The other time was 200 pesos. NEVER pay morditas in dollars. In fact I almost never have dollars on my when in Tijuana.

I will say that all of my traffic stops have been "uniform. " They all followed the same basic template. You can tell immediately if this is a shakedown stop or a legit traffic infraction. They always ask for license, sometimes registration. The next words out of his mouth are the giveaway, as well as actions. If they try to peek and see how much money you might have in your wallet, you know. If he starts to grill your companion to see if you two know each other, you know. (If she's a hooker they'll lay some shit on you about prostitution being illegal outside of a bar, or some shit). Then they'll have you step out of the car. Then they'll frisk you. Then they'll look in the trunk. Then they'll tell you how much trouble you're in. Then they'll threaten to take you in, or make you follow them to the courthouse. Every stop is a variation on this same theme. If you're riding dirty they just have that much more ammo to use against you.

A cop pulled me over, claiming I had not stopped long enough before making the right-hand turn (which of course was BS). He also decided to do the breathalyzer card trick and he decided I was drunk (I was not). I got out of that one with the equivalent of around $20-30 US.

In 2014, I was driving down Calle Coahuila and got pulled over for no tags (someone had stolen mine and I didn't realize it).

In 2015, I was driving down Calle Fernando Sanchez Ayala and again got nabbed for the "illegal right-hand turn" bullshit that is a favorite of some crooked cops. This time, I called my "fixer friend" while the cop was on the scene and he convinced the cop that he should find his mordita elsewhere.

In 2016, I pulled out of the parking lot across from the alley onto Calle Constitucion and was immediately stopped. I was with a local masero at the time (we had been bar hopping on his night off). There were 2 cops and one started working on him and one on me. The masero who was with me is native Mexican for at least 56 generations back and has been a masero there for at least 15 years I've known him and is pretty well connected. We argued with the cops until we were both blue in the face and the thick neck would not accept anything less than $80. It was near or after midnight and too late to call my "fixer friend". After we pulled away (it's instructive to note that while you're drunk enough to merit a mordita, you're never too drunk to continue to drive after the shakedown), he said, "Those cops were sitting there just waiting for you to pull out of that parking lot. It was a sting operation all the way". Not long after that, I stopped driving down there entirely (just tired of the BS).

Lots to dive through here. First, I don't doubt your experiences. Second, you are so right. Everyone's experience is bound to be different. We do a disservice by painting every interaction with that broad brush.

I'd argue two points. One, Tijuana police actually do not have "latitude" As common as the morditas are, they actually could get in trouble for it. And that coincides with my second point. And by no means am I pointing fingers here. So you've mentioned getting in trouble while carrying a knife, carrying a vape, driving after bar hopping and driving without a tag. Again, not judging you and I know I've put myself at a similar risk a time or two. But my point is, when you (or I) do things of questionable legality, it's hard to say the cops are the only one to blame. In fact, compare the impact of a DUI in the states vs an $80 mordita.

My point: Of course many Tijuana police are too creative and a loose with "the rules". But if I'm 100% in the right, the chances of me getting screwed over are minimal. If not, well, yes, I'm now at their mercy. Does it absolutely suck that the rules are far less clear in Mexico? Yes. But it is the playground we choose.

I know what I'm talking about.Hey, at least you didn't say that you pulled a Sindicatura card from you wallet, frightening the poor cops to death.

OK. If you want to get into a dick measuring contest, I'll play along.

I got stopped a few years ago in Mexicali for an "illegal" left turn. I don't recall a "breathalyzer" test but memory is fuzzy. Same nonsense, although the cops were lower key than the Tijuana cops. In the end, mordita of 200 pesos.

A couple years later we exited La Cueva. Cop was hiding waiting for somebody to exit the bar and get into a car. Got pulled over a block or two away. Same shit. Breathalyzer, threats about bad things happening because I was lying to the cops, had been drinking, and so forth. Long story short, cop says to meet him around the corner where it's dark, accepts 200 pesos and gives me instructions on how to bypass the alcoholimetro on Agua Caliente.

A couple years after that I was returning downtown from an Espinoza Paz concert. Got jacked on that left turn flyover where the SENTRI lane splits to the right and the left lane takes you back to Centro. Was accused of violating a no left turn sign (that doesn't exist). Same shit. Making fun of my name, exiting the car, frisking, searching trunk, breathalyzer, etc. , etc. I finally got fed up and looked him in the eye and asked if there was some sort of fine. Could see the wheels turning, then he looked disgustedly at me and said the fine is to get out of here. Net damage - $0 pesos. Not one centavo.

Latest stop was just before Christmas. Exited Motel Tijuana, flashlight in the eyes, pulled over, Officer Hardon comes on strong. I did have beer on my breath but was not DUI. Got the standard ration of it being illegal to drink and drive, threatened with a visit to the cop shop, exited the car, frisked, parked in the back of the patrol car while he searched every inch of my car, said the "fine" would be, I forget, $100 or $500 or some number he pulled out of his ass. When he found absolutely nothing, and I absolutely, positively HAD to be somewhere else shortly, I gave him 500 pesos. He asked for another $20 (he knew how much money I had because he had counted it all in my presence during the frisk). I said no. Afterwards he did the nonsense handshake and told me to chew some gum.

OK. Now that I've established my bona fides, let me state for the noobs who may be reading that if you run around with a wallet full of Jacksons and Benjamins you look like a gringo or a pocho. One needs to carry local currency, use it, think in it, etc. Much better to part with 200 mxn than $20, or 500 mxn instead of $100.

Again, for the noobs, for the cops its a numbers game. They stop people. A certain number will be guilty and pay a bribe. A certain number will be scared to death and pay a bribe. A certain number will resist paying. They are not going to waste a ton of time on the resisters. If you are guilty of something you may need to bribe your way out of it. If you are not, they know you aren't, and it's your duty to resist your way out of it, or to significantly reduce the damage via negotiation. Just because a cop says the "fine" is $100, does NOT mean that you have absolutely no say in the matter. Unless you really are DUI, or you really do have something you're not supposed to have.

Now I have a couple questions for you. Since you live there, why didn't you call 078 that time you weren't able to "phone a friend?" If all else fails, at least there is an official record of a US Citizen getting jacked up at a certain location on a certain date at a certain time. Somebody's bound to look into it.

Since you are familiar with the system, when the cop wouldn't back down from $80, and you couldn't / wouldn't call 078, why didn't you call his bluff and offer to accompany him to see the judge? The judges are there 24 x7, right?

I will not drive in the Zona Norte at night. Far too many liquored-up gringos and pochos coming out of clubs and hopping into their cars. CA plates on Coahuila are probably like ringing the dinner bell to these guys. So, I drive all over the joint, night and day, but there are, indeed, certain areas to avoid. I also do my very best not to drive if we're going anywhere there will be alcohol.

Lastly, again just for any newbies who may still be reading, offering advice to carry a knife or vape in Tijuana just to give the cops something to confiscate instead of your money is insane advice. Any decent knife is going to cost more than the standard 200 peso mordida (no local pays $80 for a BS traffic stop unless there is far more going on than meets the eye). Having any sort of contraband on your person is just giving the cops more reasons to screw with you. It's true that the cops do not have to abide by "probable cause" rules as they do in the states. If they want to search you they can. Don't give them anything to find, and keep your money in your hand at all times.

Occasionally, you run into the stubborn cop who sticks to his guns in terms of amount. I got pulled over for speeding which I was. It was a legit stop. He wouldn't back down from mil pesos and kept threatening to take me to the station instead of simply taking $20 bucks. I said fine let's go and ended up paying 500 pesos. He had a sad look on his face because he wasn't getting a nickel of it in his pocket. Sure 500 pesos is more than $20 bucks but who cares because I still saved 500 over his ridiculous mil pesos hardline stance and it was deeply satisfying to see him not get a fuckin dime. Sure I wasted 30 minutes but it was time well spent sticking it to the fat fuck. All he had to do was take the $20 and we both would have won but he didn't get to be a cop because he aced the Mexican equivalent of the SAT.

Lots to dive through here. First, I don't doubt your experiences. Second, you are so right. Everyone's experience is bound to be different. We do a disservice by painting every interaction with that broad brush.

I'd argue two points. One, Tijuana police actually do not have "latitude" As common as the morditas are, they actually could get in trouble for it. And that coincides with my second point. And by no means am I pointing fingers here. So you've mentioned getting in trouble while carrying a knife, carrying a vape, driving after bar hopping and driving without a tag. Again, not judging you and I know I've put myself at a similar risk a time or two. But my point is, when you (or I) do things of questionable legality, it's hard to say the cops are the only one to blame. In fact, compare the impact of a DUI in the states vs an $80 mordita.

My point: Of course many Tijuana police are too creative and a loose with "the rules". But if I'm 100% in the right, the chances of me getting screwed over are minimal. If not, well, yes, I'm now at their mercy. Does it absolutely suck that the rules are far less clear in Mexico? Yes. But it is the playground we choose.Yes, all peoples' experiences are different. My point, however, is that virtually all shakedowns (as opposed to legit stops) are variations on a common theme. Not only mine, but my wife's when she was a teenager, to every friend I know who had been shaken down. You get pulled over. The cop wants ID. Then you get a ton of the old "You in a heap o' trouble, boy" garbage. The entire reason behind a stop is to intimidate the mark into coughing up money. The more the intimidation, the greater the payoff.

The cops KNOW that few gringos understand the legal system. The cops KNOW that most gringos are terrified of the Mexican legal system (due in no small part to the media), and they do nothing to mitigate that fear. The cops KNOW that few gringos have the time to hassle with the cops. So, they use that knowledge to extort money. Therefore, the traffic stops follow a pattern. You're in trouble. You need to come to the station with me. OMG the fine for this crime is really steep. Man, you may be tied up for hours or days if you have to go see the judge. Every step in the "standard" shakedown is intended to intimidate the "mark" and increase the payout.

It's all a big game. One that sucks Zonkey balls, but still a game. Take for instance when you're on a tour in a SEA country. Often as part of the tour your dragged into some establishment that offers food / beverage. Then the bill is staggering. If you don't know how the game is played you get screwed. If you do, you know that it's just a "fuck the foreigner" game and you negotiate accordingly. When you go to a car dealership you can pay what they ask and get screwed Or, you play the game. All sales follow essentially the same template. Play with numbers, try for confusion, lowball here, highball there, switch off between manager, F&I, and on and on. If you know how the game is played you play it and come out on the other side with a good deal. The cop shakedowns are no different. Let's squeeze the gringo until he squeals. If he doesn't squeal we'll move on. It's as simple as that.

If not, well, yes, I'm now at their mercy. Does it absolutely suck that the rules are far less clear in Mexico? Yes.After 30 years of never having a problem with the police, I think the rules are very clear in Mexico. The thing is that there is flexibility in the penalty for breaking said rules. A smart person would try to work out the penalty and pay it up front. An even smarter person would not get into the situations in the first place.

I do not drive in Mexico, but I do drive in the Dominican Republic where the cops have pulled me over at least 20 times because they see it is a rental car. And where there is a rental car, there is someone with money. Judging from ISG alone, most foreigners are more than willing to pay off the cops even when they know they have done nothing wrong. I am not one of those foreigners (unless I absolutely knew the shakedown was a threat - and I have yet to sense that, even though one cop did pull out his gun and threaten to shoot my tire. Ended up leaving with zero just like all the rest.)


If you are guilty of something you may need to bribe your way out of it. If you are not, they know you aren't, and it's your duty to resist your way out of it, or to significantly reduce the damage via negotiation. Just because a cop says the "fine" is $100, does NOT mean that you have absolutely no say in the matter. Unless you really are DUI, or you really do have something you're not supposed to have.I agree 100%. There was a brother giving a story in the Colombia thread a couple of months ago about how he had paid a cop off whatever amount, $25 I think. After reading his story a couple of times I was like hold up. The cop only told you legitimately what the actual fine ($300) for the infraction was. He did not say you had to pay anything. Came off to me like it was just an FYI/warning. You could have said thanks for telling me and walked off, but when you heard the exorbitant amount you started trying to negotiate telling him that you did not have that much and ended up giving him money!


Take for instance when you're on a tour in a SEA country. Often as part of the tour your dragged into some establishment that offers food / beverage. Then the bill is staggering. If you don't know how the game is played you get screwed. If you do, you know that it's just a "fuck the foreigner" game and you negotiate accordingly.Or they tell you the show is free, but you willy nilly order drinks, then get that big ass bill for 2 beers. That I why I do not order anything unless I see a menu first. We were in Nice, France and walked into a cabaret. The first thing my buddies did was order drinks. The first thing I did was ask for a menu. Cheapest thing in the menu was water for $40. Their drinks were already made by the time I saw that!

MongerHunger,

The taco stand has no name sign. Any name would be confusing to the bros. Just call it the HK's taco stand so people know which one you mean and can find it. The convenience and benefits far outweigh the need for accuracy. Actually HK may be offended that their name is used for that taco stand.

Bought a pork taco from the Al Pastor spindle on Sunday, 22 pesos. Notice the taste of the meat has completely changed since the last few months, way too salty, mushy, not crispy, old, spoiled and not fresh, tasted like it had been in the marinade too long, a lot worse than before, pretty much inedible to me. I took a couple bites then gave the rest to the dogs. Looked like they were not selling as many tacos as before, so the meat may have just stayed on the spindle for days or weeks, and got mushy. Even Churrass do Brasil served spoiled meats last October due to slow business. I don't know why the noob said it was delicious the week before last week.

I told the cook about the problem and he acknowledged. I also told the cashier about the problem and asked him to inform the chef or whoever marinade the meat. He was unresponsive. They may not care and may not feed anything back to their kitchen. If the bros know of better taco stands in the vicinity please recommend.

It looks like the same street style tacos but it's made in a real kitchen where I'd imagine that they have better sanitation and take better care of the food they're preparing. I laugh at the tourists who come down and automatically think Tijuana street tacos are the greatest thing ever. Back in the days I used to eat all the street food I could get my hands on, nowadays I'm a much more picky eater.

They are basic, boring tacos for a higher price than other stands. But if you are picky and worried about hygiene, it's probably a better choice.

KCCoochie,

Azul's has guys inside HK push $1 tacos while HK's meseros push Azul's snack menu, so everybody knows where Azul's is, but not the other taco stand. Call it the HK taco stand so people can easily remember and find it. Azul's tacos seem plain without condiments. Ask them to bring salsa, salt, pepper ect, but good luck, they would never bring any.

Jinxx is right food places with kitchens would be cleaner, more hygienic, if they even practice hygiene. The HK taco stand has access to sinks and water supplies at the corner store, but I have never seen them clean or wash their hands or work places at the stand. Damn.

One of the noob wingmen is young and fit guy, a big and adventurous eater. He went to the HK taco stand 3 times a night, each with multiple tacos. He wants to find a place for tripa tacos. Near 10 PM he wanted to go to Mr. Pampas for AYCE grilled meats. It was unbelievable how much food he can put away. So when he goes with us again, after sessions with hot girls, we will arrange for a stop at tacos El France on Ave LOS Heroes so he can try various tripa, lingua, cabeza tacos hehe. I want to try them too. Then we will mosey down the street for the AYCE Brazilian grills.

Girls are so hot and food so delicious in Tijuana guys in my racing team are trying every which way to sneak out for a night of sexy fun and tasty food.

Hong Kong, Tropical closed as of Wednesday 3 PM, but Chicago and Caretta was open.

Cascada's security would not let you in unless you had a room or about to book a room. You can get in by claiming to have a room, or go up to the lobby by Azul's front door.

Azul's Sports Bar was open with 5 guys drinking, partying and about 5 girls, including the ever present Sasha. She looked good compared to the other frumpy girls.

I did predict Baja California's governor would react harshly when he found out La Zona's bars were resisting his closure order. This time around HK group and Adelita will probably be shut down for months pending BC's investigation and litigation, and will probably face heavy fines and penalties.

JohnnuSmith,

Both serve excellent grilled meats and seafood, great for the body especially after a long night screwing multiple girls, feels good to kick back, sipping some wine or beers, gulping down some of the tastiest, tenderest, most flavorful plates of grilled meats. The stomach feels full, happy, satisfying with all that protein. You can pack lots of protein to build strength for the next day. A wingman was a big eater, gulped down 6 to 7 plates full of meat and salad, then he went for 2 more plates of desert sweets. I can't wait to take a few more guys to these grills for soem serious eats hehe.

I would prefer Churrascaria do Brasil on Ave de Los Heroes, at intersection with Independencia at the huge rotary with a V monument, across from Rio Plaza. This place opens until mid night so you have plenty of time to pack down the food. They serve many different cuts, with the picanha top sirloin roll being South America's favorite cut, also rib eye, sirloins, rump roast, sausages, roast pork, poultry and sea food. The meats are highest grade, grilled to perfection from rare to medium with a good fresh salad, pasta and cheese bar, not as good as before CoVid but still bery sumptuous and tasty.

You may also want to invite your bar girls for a meal. Premium beers are only $2, excellent food for a very deal.

Meats seemed to be of better quality and, at least from my single experience at Mr. Pampas, didn't have to wait as long for service and the meats to come around. Went to Mr. Pampas for the first time last Sunday (Valentine's Day afternoon). About a 30 minute wait before I could be seated, which actually wasn't so bad. Solid place but don't know if I'll go back when I can just go to Churrascaria do Brasil instead. Uber is pretty cheap to these places. Was only around $2. 50 from Zona Norte to Mr. Pampas when I went last Sunday and was a little less than $2. 00 the last time I took Uber from Zona Norte to Churrascaria do Brasil last summer.

Brother Mouzone.

You definitely should go to the place with a bigger local clientele. They would serve better food and more values. With Churras open until midnight, we can do all night drinking and romancing a few hot girls then head out to the grill to load up with delicious meats before heading home at midnight. It's a damn good life, only Roman emperors could afford.

I usually had to wait 15 min to half hour to be seated at Mr. Pampas, not exactly good with hot chicas waiting back in La Zona bars. Also Mr. Pampas' weekday discount seemed to have disappeared. OTOH Churr do Brasil seems to have bigger dining clientele at both locations, but I never had to wait. The original location on Aqua Caliente at Galleria Hipodromo is larger and classier than the new one on Ave LOS Heroes in Zona Rio. It has 30% discount after 7 PM all week vs only Mon through Thursday for the new Zona Rio place. If 4 guys go it saves about $20 for drinks and tips.

Last time I was in both Mr. Pampas and Churrascaria do Brasil, they served many different cuts of meats and seafood. The rotation was slower than before CoVid but any cut we requested they would bring out within 5 minutes, perfectly grilled between rare and medium. A few wingmen in my racing team are big eaters. They really look forward to gulping down large chunks of tender and tasty grilled meats and seafood.

The chicas try to keep their weights down and their bellies flat, so they prefer seafood and sushi over meats. Mr. Pampas and Churras used to have enough varieties of sushi and sashimi in their salad bars, but no longer under CoVid. Mariscos Villa Marina has a large but expensive Mexican menu. A few sushi places in Zona Rio are also expensive.

Damn, I get angry every time I think about how much worse out lives have gone down hill due to CoVid. El Capitan's Tijuana Chicas Racing Team wants lots of good food and hot sex with pretty chicas every weekend hehe.

Crossed into Mexico this afternoon. My passport is in the hands of the State department waiting on renewal. I arrived at the border with a photocopy, as well as a pre-filled out FMM. As I walked in the Mexican Nationals line was wide open and I almost took that lane, but then some agents arrived and started checking paperwork so I headed to the Foreigners line. The agent asked for my passport and I explained that I didn't have it. He tore up the FMM and escorted me to his office. He explained that I couldn't enter Mexico without a passport. He asked me my reason for travel ("medical"), where I was staying, how long I was staying, and my occupation. I told him the hospital said that a photocopy would be good enough. He said "They don't make the rules. We make the rules. " I apologized and said "Of course, I meant no offense. " He asked his questions a couple more times, pretending to consider my answers carefully. In the end he asked if I REALLY wanted to enter Mexico. I said yes, so he said "I'm going to let you in this time. There is no fee, but you must give me a tip. " I asked how much and he just spread his hands. I asked if he preferred pesos or dollars and he said "Whichever you wish". I slid him 400 pesos which he put in a drawer without even looking, and said "Welcome to Mexico".

I didn't whine or complain. I didn't demand anything. I didn't walk out and return to the US. I was polite and contrite and let him know that he was in charge. He had something I wanted (access) and I had something he wanted (money). Simple.

Some guys have reported being forced to buy a 180-day FMM. That's US $30. Four hundred pesos is about $20, so I was perfectly happy to be allowed in to Mexico without a passport. I might have gotten away with 300 pesos, or maybe even 200. But why risk pissing him off?

Simple..I've been telling people since July, that if you don't want to pay the $30 fee, walk in through otay, since there's 1 line, your not cheating on wrong line. If asked for passport say you left it at friends house by mistake, and then they will charge you 20 bucks instead of 30. The point is, you may not pay anything as half the time I wasn't stopped in otay anyway just like now in san Ysidro I'm stopped half time in Mexican line. 2 times I refused to pay the 20 dollar fee and made them walk me back to USA which they were not thrilled about. They told me I would have to sit for an hour I was like no problem. Then they all started at me to see if I would panic and pay. Instead I was watching videos on my cell and they got rid of me handed me to USA border. Now I have a passport though and ibpqy the 30 bucks because I go often enough.

I slid him 400 pesos which he put in a drawer without even looking, and said "Welcome to Mexico".

Wow, would never have thought they would ask for a tip / bribe and straight up admit that's what they were asking for LOL. I can at least say I respect the balls on that guy.

Brother Mouzone.

You definitely should go to the place with a bigger local clientele. They would serve better food and more values. With Churras open until midnight, we can do all night drinking and romancing a few hot girls then head out to the grill to load up with delicious meats before heading home at midnight. It's a damn good life, only Roman emperors could afford.

I usually had to wait 15 min to half hour to be seated at Mr. Pampas, not exactly good with hot chicas waiting back in La Zona bars. Also Mr. Pampas' weekday discount seemed to have disappeared. OTOH Churr do Brasil seems to have bigger dining clientele at both locations, but I never had to wait. The original location on Aqua Caliente at Galleria Hipodromo is larger and classier than the new one on Ave LOS Heroes in Zona Rio. It has 30% discount after 7 PM all week vs only Mon through Thursday for the new Zona Rio place. If 4 guys go it saves about $20 for drinks and tips.
Yes, at Churras I've never had to wait more than 5 minutes, though to be fair I've always gone to that restaurant at less of a peak time (later at night closer to closing time). The one time I tried to go to the Churras on Agua Caliente it was closed (despite the hours posted on website indicating it was open but I guess that's COVID for ya) so I ended up Ubering to the Zona Rio location, which was still open for another hour. I'm actually the type to head out to the clubs late a bit before midnight so would nearly always be eating prior to hitting the clubs LOL.

US and Mexican Customs and Immigration officials on both sides of the border were extremely laid back before Al Qaeda 9/11 attack. We were indulged by border officials on both sides and had so much liberty back then that are now completely unimaginable by the younger generation.

A nice, sunny day in SoCal before the 9/11 attack, I wanted to fly a young, pretty undocumented foreign student in a private single-engine plane into Mexico for a weekend of touring and of course hot sex. By laws, I had to land the plane and clear through US Immigration at Brown Field at the border and had US officials check the plane that Friday afternoon before leaving the US. The girl did not have a passport or any immigration document due to a diplomatic crisis in her country. I explained her situation and pleaded with the US Imm. Woman " Please look at her and remember her. We will be back Sunday afternoon. " Amazingly the very nice woman said she would be working next Sunday and agreed to our private deal.

We had to land and file flight plan into Mexico at Tijuana Int. Airport. So we made a 1-minute flight over, parked the plane in front of the Mexican Imm. Office and went in. Mexican officials would not let me file a flight plan due to her lack of documents. After lengthy arguments and persuasion, I got fed up and told them we were going back to the US, but the immigration guys said "No, no, sit down here and wait a moment. " That was when I realized he just wanted a mordita. I handed him a $5 bill and they quickly filled out and signed a lot of forms for a flight plan to Ensenada and San Filipe. It was a $5 well spent to have a little honeymoon with the sweet girl.

We took off, flew to Ensenada; sky was bright sunny, clear, deep blue, completely clear of haze, smog or cloud, visibility unlimited. The controllers at Ensenada's Marine-controlled airfield kept assuring us over radio with his broken English, that there was no cloud, visibility unlimited. AFAIK Ensenada had no instrument approach equipment back then, or even now. Parked the plane on the taxi way at the Mexico's Navy base next to the main highway South. The airport was completely unsecured, did not even have a gate. Had to give an unofficial / migrant attendant a $ tip and asked him to watch the plane over night so no one tampered with it. Took a long taxi ride into downtown to spend the night with the hot girl.

Next morning after breakfast, we took off, flew East over some seriously rugged mountainous terrain for San Felipe, then the vast flat plain and long, unending sandy beaches of the Sea of Cortez all the way to the curved horizon. Did a half circle over downtown San Felipe to signal taxi drivers for pick up at the airport. The air chart said San Filipe had fuel but the 2 young unofficial air traffic controllers at the tower told me with their broken English, that very few planes ever landed in San Filipe, and the fuel pump had been shut off long ago. Damn. They made calls to the mayor and the fire chief to come out to the airport. After much discussion, the mayor and fire chief said the town had a 30-gallon drum of emergency avgas for a few times a year when drowned victims had to be flown back to the US. After lots of muchas gracias and propinas for all involved, they agreed to lend me 30 gallons of avgas, but I had to fly back to Mexicali to fill it and bring it back.

Filled up the plane with highly questionable Mexican avgas from the drum, ready to fly back to Mexicali. The 2 beefy unofficial Mexican tracon guys pleaded with me that they had never been on an airplane, so being a nice, fun guy, I let them take the 2 empty back seats with the empty 30-gallon plastic drum between them. Took off for Mexicali, about 130 miles North over mostly sandy desert. It was a bright, sunny day; the sky and the sea was bright, clear deep blue. Mexicali airport was nice, clean, huge, in the middle of an immense flat sandy desert plain with no trees, no houses, only sage brushes and cacti. Our crew hang out at the airport terminal, had tacos lunch, talking shit with a few cool, young Mexican pilots flew in with brand-new, expensive business jets and turbo props; may have been affiliated with El Chapo hehe.

After filling the plane's 2 gas tanks, loaded the 30-gallon drum and everyone on the plane, I suddenly realized that, in the excitement of the sexy vacation, I had forgotten to calculate the weight and balance of the fully-fueled plane with 4 beefy adults and a 180-lbs plastic fuel drum for the return trip. The plane was about 400 lbs over maximum take off weight, with a severely aft center of gravity problem with 2 heavy guys and the fuel drum in the back seats, and the mid day air temperature in the desert was hot, over 100 F. There were serious flight safety risks but I could not leave the 2 poor Mexican guys behind, so I switched a heavy guy to the front seat, the light girl to the back, had one guy hold the fuel drum up front against the front seats to improve the plane's CG balance.

We took off in high desert heat on the 10,000 foot runway usually used by large airlines' jets. The plane was way overweighed; I had to use up most of the 10,000 feet runway before it lifted off the ground. The plane was sluggish, climbing very slowly, no more 100 feet per minute over the hot desert sand. Damn lucky there were not trees or building surrounding the airport, only wide open desert. I made very gentle turns to head South. As the plane burned off fuel, it climbed and handled better; we got back to San Felipe and landed safely. It was a serious flight safety mistake, but not the stupidest one I ever made.

After a weekend fishing and partying, we took off to the San Diego border, cleared through Tijuana Int airport Customs then hopped over to Brown field. The same US Imm and Customs woman came out to check the plane, looked at and reidentified the well-fucked young girl and cleared us into the US. I don't remember any paper work had to be done. Border security procedures used to be that informal and trusting before 9/11. For a few years subsidized avgas in Tijuana used to cost about half of San Diego and private planes' owners would fly to Tijuana just to fill up their tanks, despite the extremely long line at the pump. Damn. Border air procedures have now grown extremely lengthy, complex and demanding, not worth crossing in private planes with the long waits, paper work and headache.

Before 9/11 I had been in many occasions when US border officials trusted and indulged US citizens. We lost of lot of our most precious freedoms and liberties due to the attacks by international terrorists on US citizens and territories, and now by the damn stupid CoVid-19. We should do everything we can to assist and improve on the security of our country.

Have a flight booked for the weekend of March 20, staying for 3 nights. I've read up on the Adelita murder, and know that HK is still closed. I've stayed at both Cascadas & Rizo in the past, but have taken girls from Chicago to Jalos, and its a shithole, but I've read that Chicago is open, and I'm considering staying there just so I don't have to pay the room fees. Are the upstairs hangouts still open at Cascadas & Rizo? Anybody stayed at Jalos longer than 30 minutes and care to speak about it?

How is border crossing? My last trip was in November of 2020, during COVID, and luckily right after the clubs reopened. I had my passport, a recent negative covid test, and confirmation of a dental appointment and was able to breeze thru no questions asked.

I still have the option to cancel my flight and I want to make sure this trip is going to be worth the hassle. I've been 5 times so far and have had an amazing vacation each time, don't want this to be a different experience. Thoughts / suggestions?

I went to Tijuana very week, twice last week, there was no problem crossing by car or by foot.

All bars are open as of this week. HK had about 50 girls Sunday afternoon, a few very hot. Adelitas was open again. Touts were trying to get us to go up but I still felt very sad about the grisly murder of a young girl so did not go up.

Chicago had about 50 guys and 40 girls, 2 or 3 nice, slim attractive. Ventilation was very bad with all those people, the air was warm and moist. I did not like it so did not stay.

Weather was cold all month, few girls were working the streets but there were some good talents. Between Hong Kong, the street and escorts you will have plenty of talents and fun for 3 days or longer.

Including Adelita which reopened this past weekend. HK 7th floor was a complete zoo. Might be the kind of place you want to avoid on Thursday - Saturday. As far as crossing I go just about every weekend crossing on foot. I bought the 180 day FMM so easy crossing just walk in no questions asked. And crossing back to you. S never an issue. Except this past week when ped lines coming back to you. S. Seemed longer than usual.

Turgid,

Even as recently as 2008 before the passport requirement, we just walked past the UETA store through the turnstile gate into Mexico, never ever saw any Mexican Immigration officials. They had an office next to the turnstile gate but spent all their time on the car lane checking cars and buses, not pedestrians.

After 2008 PedEast had a Mexican Imm office with a couple people and a few armed Marines guards. Don't know what kinds of people they target except the obvious horny single guys whom they squeeze for bribes to enter under CoVid restrictions.

I had a business visit in about 1985 when Ave Revo under the present arc was just a dirt road with gutters, sewage and chickens running, clucking. There was an old Army horse barn converted into a ho house with old, ugly, toothless hoes turning tricks in horse stalls lined with straws. I was disgusted and never returned to Tijuana for 15 years until 2000 with lots more info from the internet.

Knock La Zona all you want but they made big progress with fancy bars and hot young girls since then hehe.

Centro was more crowded than it has been since 2001 and definitely a lot nicer. Full of regular tourists and regular people. There were Oaxaquena flower sellers all along Revolucion. The streets had better paving then today. I don't share your memory.

Hong Kong was connected to the Miami club and the entrance to the Miami club was from the alley. The Adelita and Chicago clubs were the most popular. Zona Norte and Hong Kong club is so popular now because the information on the Internet and of course the illegal prostitution in the US since 1914 (with the exception of a few counties in Nevada where as I hear prices are very expensive eg HJ start $ 250! American retirees, divorced, single, married, tourists, locals, etc spend enormous amounts of American dollars in the Zona Norte and the girls are very happy. Some (of course not all) Mexican girls in Hong Kong or Adelita look so good that they can easily work in movies or TV. Soon the epidemic will end and the clubs will be reopened. See you in Zona Norte! Hasta la vista!

My recollection of Tijuana back in the early '80's which is when I used to traverse the border seems to be a little different from those of other posters. Back then I would go across on a Friday night and return on a Sunday morning. I would have a taxi take me to and fro various clubs. There was no shortage of available (P4 P of course) attractive Mexicanas. My only problem was my finances which were very limited at the time so I was restricted to one or two sessions per trip where I could have easily done maybe seven or eight sessions in the time frame. If only I had the financial resources I have now back then!

Clayton,

Mid 80's the Southern end of Revo was built up and there were trinkets shops and crowd of tourists, may be 2 to 3 x times tourists compared to this year, but the Northern end North of the Arc was a run down dirt road. I remember the horse barn North of that corner. An old toothless woman took me in the barn, showed me the stalls where she did tricks. I passed, LOL.

I did see a number of bars with music and dirty blankets covering doors. I suspected there were girls but was afraid of being robbed so did not go in.

StRobert,

Until I read a lot of reports in 2000 from gringos who went to La Zona's bars, bagged girls and did not get robbed, I started going to Tijuana.

Before that I went to Thailand many times, but was not impressed with women there, mostly older and skanky, the hottest ones were usually trannies. Went to Chicago club the first time one afternoon just to be safe, found a hot young girl sitting at a booth in the corner. I could not believe how beautiful she looked, came over asked her many questions, squeezed her boobs to make sure she was not a trannie. She was laughing in disbelief. Took her upstairs and had a very good session.

After that I started going to Chicago at night, sometimes staying past midnight to wait for my favoritas. Driving back I got ambushed a few times on dark streets North of Chicago's block by policia carrying submachine guns in patrol cars. They checked car registration and tried to intimidate me but I never gave them anything. One old guy begged for cerveza money hehe.

At that time, Hong Kong was a small sleazy bar with old, skanky strippers. I never took any upstairs. After expansion, Hong Kong recruited the hottest girls from all over Mexico, transformed the club into a classy entertainment venue and became well-known to mongers all over the world.

There is enough demand and profit for a few more bars like HK. Adelitas and Chicago could never recruit the top talents like HK. Sad. The noobs have to put up with speakeasies' cramped quarters and very little entertainment. Looking forward to bars' reopening.

"Avenida Revolucionwas the first road in Tijuana to be paved, near the beginning of the twentieth century. Originally called Avenida Olvera, it was from its earliest days a popular destination for American tourists who crossed the border from California. The avenue's most remarkable development was during the Prohibition Era of 1920-33, when it was visited by American tourists seeking legal alcohol."

Mexican readers of this forum are likely to feel insulted by this portrayal of Revolution Avenue as a dirt road as late as 1985.

Well, I thought I would do a quick trip report on Cancun here since nobody goes to the Cancun section. Number 1 this is not a major mongering destination. It's a beautiful place with a lot of activities outdoors which I did. That being said, I Arrived at the airport and uber is banned. Expect to negotiate about 500 to 600 pesos each way. Uber is also banned at the hotel zone, so I used the red bus up and down the strip for 12 pesos. Really good deal. I tried what other mongers said was the best massage parlor out of a weak lot. That was healthy body spa. It was a joke. They had 4 girls that I wouldn't touch if you paid me. It looked like a lineup from a crappy Brazil apartment lineup. SA was dead and too much work for me. There were a couple girls that wanted 300 dollars on there. I passed. Tinder was a dud.

All the action from what I saw was on mileroticos. Plenty of action there and agencies are all on there for around 1500 pesos. I went to the party zone in Coco Bongo area. It's a zoo. Great for drunk college kids but if your older its loud and sweaty. The barkers there are relentless. Its non stop. Makes the barkers in Tijuana look like amateurs. I found one Barker that spoke good English and asked him to show me every strip club in the area. They were all 20.00 cover and empty of guys. They haven't figured out to drop the cover and fill the place up. Every strip clubbed I walked in I was attacked or stared at by every girl in there since I was the only guy. They said it would be around 300 dollars for a girl including the room so I passed on all the strip clubs. This is a strange Mexican business model of high prices empty stripclub and no thought of lowering prices. Knowing I could go on mileroticos and get a girl to my room for 1500 pesos made the strip club scene a non starter. Food was great. Water was beautiful. The hotels were a pain in the ass to bring girls in. I didn't go to PDC. Brazil is still the best beach mongering destination and best overall. If I were to do Cancun over again, I would have rented a hotel away from the hotel zone that was girl friendly, and taxi or bus it to the hotel zone when you want to see the sights.

Girls get tested but there are also a lot of girls who slip through the cracks and do not get tested. Testing for STD's does nothing since a girl can contract something the following day then won't get tested until a month later.

I just prefer to make decisions that reduce my risk. Seems to me that since this stuff is legal in Tijuana, is regulated, and enforces that women are tested. That it's safer than in the USA Most people would think otherwise, but I've met so many ladies that wanted BBFS. Which is definitely not my thing unless we get tested.

Legalizing prostitution would make things safer in the USA Would, IMO, make things safer for all parties involved.

I am looking to either rent a truck or hire a truck / driver to help me pick up a large item in March. I don't have a Mexican driver's license so I'm not sure if I can rent a truck at a place such as The Home Depot.

A lot street girls at 5 pm. Some would come to my Revolucion hotel for 40. Of course I need to drink 1st. By 8 pm its slim pickings. My point, if you want street girls show up at 3 pm, do the rounds every 30 minutes. Chicago girls all asked me for 100. I don't know what to say other than I didn't have sex again LOL. I can't pay 100 for 15 minutes sex. God bless those who can.

Do you guys remember some of the other bars in Tijuana owned by the same owner of HK? Something sounding like "7 of Clubs." Now that I drive all over, I think I'll make a recon trip over there if they are open.

This is very good intels.

Cancun has been ridiculous even back in 2000. Coco Bongo clubs had very few guys all night but charged steep cover and club girls all wanted $300. I talked 1 hot girl down to $200 after her shift end at 2 AM. You are right Cancun clubs business model is a joke. A few old, ugly women walked Zona Hoteleria, wanted $400 for a pop. I wanted to throw up.

Drove way out to the darkest part East of town to Plaza 2000, a walled in zona tolerancia. Most bars were out of business, only 2 were open with only 1 or 2 guys, one very old Mexican stooping on a cane, and a couple girls. Found a few hot girls for $60-100 including rooms on the premises. But after 2000 all bars went out of business and Plaza 2000 closed down for good.

Down near Playa Del Carmen, strip clubs like Chilly Willys are big scams, ripping off tourists, stealing CC info, high priced girls.

Glad to hear you got girls in Milerotica. AFAIK most pics in Milerotica are fakes posted by central agencies somewhere else; very few if any girls are independents. When someone bites, agencies contact any local girls who are available for tricks and send them, usually old, homely housewives who arrived late after long delays. Did you find any hot girls?

There has to be places in Cancun where locals can buy sex from girls. Perhaps the massage houses are the only venues for locals.

It's a shame as I like the ocean and tropical jungle around Cancun a lot, but never could find good supply of hot girls.

Bravo to our bro Jackie for his courage and adventure spirit.

La Cueva del Peludo is where HK's owners, the Brisuela brothers have the corporate office where they allegedly do quality-control test drives of all new HK girls. Siepte de Copas is also owned by HK with lots of older, beefy, dark, hairy women. Al Capitan is severely pissed off by average-looking girls in HK and Adelitas demanding combat pays just to roll around safely in bed. If you find any hot, young girls with steep discount anywhere in Tijuana, be sure to let us know.

A couple bars or pizza places on the main road into El Centro from Tijuana Int airport have women sitting out in front waiting for clients, primarily truckers.

Perhaps Jackie is better off hanging out in civie clubs like Toritos on Revo and befriend hot civies?

I'm going to be visiting for the first time second week of March for three nights. Do you think hotel Cascadas is too "seedy" to stay for three nights?I would stay at Ticuan if you can afford it, or Jatay in la playas. The beach is open and might be nice during the day, chilly at night though. Not all agencies will send girls out to Jatay though so best check, if you pursue that option. La playas has what you need for ATM, grocery / rx and some great food. Jatay has great steak / shrimp tacos and if you get a ocean view room, you can enjoy the beautiful sunset while getting your cock sucked by a cute young chica.

Cascadas is not seedy at all. It can be a bit noisy, but the rooms are relatively clean and comfortable. I've stayed there three or four days in a row before, but it can get a bit tiresome. Note that the escort agencies mostly will not send girls there. You can bring in street girls if they will agree to go with you, but many won't. It's really optimal if you plan to bring the bar girls back to your room, but remember that they are going to want $80-100 for 30 minutes.

Everyone should stay at Cascadas at least once, so I won't try to talk you out of it. If you decide that you don't like it or are tired of the bar girls after a day or two, you can always check out and get a regular hotel outside the zona.

It may be a coincidence that it was closed on both of my recent trips, but I wouldn't risk it. I visited the Playas neighborhood because I like a restaurant out there, but both times it was deserted and depressing. I certainly wouldn't want to stay there. I do like Jatay when the beach is open, just not now.

If you do, you may be limited to independent girls from Mileroticos or craigslist. I don't know which agencies will send girls out there but the big ones won't unless they know you or you offer to tip the girls extra. Right now, I wouldn't want to be stuck at Playas for any length of time.

Have heard it might be open for limited hours in the morning (for exercise, etc.) though not sure about the specifics there. They have the beach area taped off with yellow tape at the street level before you're able to walk down. When was down there there were people (including what seemed to be locals) who would go under the yellow tape to walk around a bit on the beach and take pictures by the border wall. A police car rolled around a long while later and turned its sirens on, at which point all the people down on the beach walked back up from the beach to the street (seemed the sirens were just a semi-polite way of warning people they shouldn't be on the beach. The police officer didn't do anything to any of the trespassers).

Well, I thought I would do a quick trip report on Cancun here since nobody goes to the Cancun section. Number 1 this is not a major mongering destination. It's a beautiful place with a lot of activities outdoors which I did. That being said, I Arrived at the airport and uber is banned. Expect to negotiate about 500 to 600 pesos each way. Uber is also banned at the hotel zone, so I used the red bus up and down the strip for 12 pesos. Really good deal. I tried what other mongers said was the best massage parlor out of a weak lot. That was healthy body spa. It was a joke. They had 4 girls that I wouldn't touch if you paid me. It looked like a lineup from a crappy Brazil apartment lineup. SA was dead and too much work for me. There were a couple girls that wanted 300 dollars on there. I passed. Tinder was a dud.

All the action from what I saw was on mileroticos. Plenty of action there and agencies are all on there for around 1500 pesos. I went to the party zone in Coco Bongo area. It's a zoo. Great for drunk college kids but if your older its loud and sweaty. The barkers there are relentless. Its non stop. Makes the barkers in Tijuana look like amateurs. I found one Barker that spoke good English and asked him to show me every strip club in the area. They were all 20.00 cover and empty of guys. They haven't figured out to drop the cover and fill the place up..What you just described is how Tijuana will be in a few years if you big spenders keep throwing wads of cash at these people. Those of you who do (and unfortunately most of the millionaire tourists don't read this forum) are doing a great disservice to yourselves, other mongers and the bar girls. Prices like TJBrazil just described are unsustainable anywhere in Mexico, which is why Cancun, Cabo, et al, are monger ghost towns.

A few years back I went out with this girl from Cabo a couple of times. She claimed she fucked Tommy Lee Jones in Cabo for $1,000. Whether she did or not, she couldn't get it out of her head that her ass was worth $1,000. IMO it was worth dinner, which we eventually settled on. Her ass wouldn't be worth $1,000 if you shoved a bitcoin up it. But they start believing this BS and they price themselves out of the market.

I see girls every week who come to Tijuana on the promise of $100 sessions and then, after a couple of weeks, realize they're indulging a fantasy and slink back to their lazy boyfriends with their tails between their legs.

But, if you really want Cabo from hell in Tijuana, just keep shoving wads of cash at these bars and chicas.

But the bars need to do there part and keep the violence under control, so the government gets off there back. They can not make careless mistakes, or there will be forced to make major changes, then prices will continue to rise.

That being said Tijuana is still very cheap and very easily to travel there. You hear about guys complaining about the prices, but it real cheap compared to other destinations.

Viagra is OTC in Mexico. You can buy as many as you want.

Piri's prices are about half the farmacias on Revo. Ultra Lab has a 2-4-1 deal where you can buy a box of 10 100 MG for $5 and get a box free, comes out $0. 25 a pill. This brand is very potent. I suggest bros to chop the pill up and start with 1/8 pill or about 10 MG. The noob was having erection problem, but he claimed this 10 MG Sildenafil gave him erection for a week, ready for action whenever the dick is stimulated. It gave me about 48 hours of activation.

Maxifort is allegedly a better brand, about $0. 50 a pill. The noobs bought a couple boxes, would last them and their friends years at 10 MG dosage.

A lot of guys have talked about the economics of zona, how guys have to keep going, and keep paying, or the girls won't leave their homes to fly to Tijuana for month of sex with 300 men. Men are just too dam horny, legalizing sex in California would keep men most American out of zona but then the girls won't fly to Tijuana. Virtually any girl that's a 8.5 to 10, in the bars, can be a hoe all over Mexico, half of them have passports and visas and work in USA and Canadian strip clubs. I've met so many woman this month who normally just strip in USA and Canada but can't get into those countries right now. And so many guys tip without sex, if the girls maken140 night, before sex just on tips and drink credits, they can stand firm on $100 to eventually it will be $150 for that 15 minutes condom blow job sex. I just don't see the prices returning to normal. Most of the hot woman can make 60 a day in tips alone at a normal bar too. Just cause factories pay 3 bucks an hour doesn't mean these girls can only work in factory.

I didn't meet any hot girls, but mileroticos has enough on there from mainly agencies to keep busy in Cancun, if you're horny. At 50, I'm not horny enough anymore to pay 300 in a Cancun strip club or any club. If the strip clubs there dropped the cover, and charged 100 for the girl and 25 for the room for a hour it would be a party to rival Brazil. Better beaches better food and super safe. Instead you will walk in and 15 girls will attack you because they have no business and then ask for 300. LOL.

I have her tel but she's very popular in Adelita and would not answer texts or calls.

As for crossing, if you don't have SENTRI / Global Entry you may be in for a wait. I don't know how bad it is at 4 pm on a Thursday but it's probably not too bad. But I've heard of multi-hour waits. CBP does have an app for estimating the wait time, but it is notoriously unreliable.

Clooney,

The speakeasies never close. I could hear their music booming all night until the morning. I have gone to HK a few times at noon, there were 20-30 girls, not the hottest ones to my taste.

Weekdays 4 PM there would be few pedestrians going back to the US. Sound7 posted something about CBP doing extra screening over the weekend. Last Saturday 11 PM the pedestrian line was unusually long, way past the foot bridge, something I have not seen in a couple years. It took the wingman about 45 minutes to cross on foot.

Budget 45 minutes to cross and you will be plenty safe.

Usually around 8 pm on those days there isn't much movement. The problem is if Ped West (the other entrance / exit) is closed then Ped East gets 100% of the traffic. Still I would bet on 8 pm being the golden hour to cross at Ped East.

I usually go to Tijuana around 4 and lately I'm not seeing long lines to go back to USA at 4 pm. Anything under an hour and a half should be considered a short line. And yes at 8 it is much decreased. Overall it is getting much. Better the last month. I paid for the global pass, a very painful 100 bucks that I put off for 5 years till the aggravation got to me. Some days I leave Tijuana to go to outlets now just to use the dam pass because I'm afraid when I leave San Diego I may never return to Mexico or California and use it again.

My experience is that prices are are competitive at almost every location because of the stiff competition. The guy at Piri speaks English and the pharmacists are professional. But Piri is a little far to walk and unless one is loading up a supply load. If one is buying one package of about 10 pills, just pick a clean pharmacy and buy it from them.

Hit up a lot clubs Tuesday night, all of them except HK, and Adelitas. What I can definitely say, as a 2 day a week regular, tropical is absorbing both the woman and men. For example my usual routine, is to hit up other clubs, bounce around. I can't speak for either HK, or Adelitas, but the other clubs are much deader since the tropical 3rd floor expansion. At this point, guys here on limited time, for weekdays, its painful to say because I prefer small clubs, but HK, and tropical is where you need to be, and maybe Adelitas but idk I stay away.

CBP has no real objective other that stated SENTRI goal of 20 minutes. Other lanes hour plus. If lockdown occurred the crossing time is greatly expanded into hours.

Tijuana is the biggest border crossing on the planet. It will never be a ghost town.I never said Tijuana would be a ghost town. If you carefully read what I wrote, I said if you guys keep throwing wads of money at these people, you're going to turn it into another Cabo or Cancun and it will be a mongering ghost town. But it's up to you guys. I have no skin in this game. I don't monger. But I am indirectly affected by how much these girls think their asses are worth.


All those other places are in the middle of nowhere.Maybe so, but Cabo and Cancun have 100 times more American tourists than Tijuana. I am out and about in Tijuana and vicinity every day. I am being generous when I say that 1% of the people I see are tourists. And that includes the beaches.


The prices are going to keep rising and that sucks for the hardcore nickel and dimers. But there will never be a shortage of talent.I hope you're wrong, Scott. The rest of you guys better hope so, too, because $100+ sessions are not sustainable in Tijuana or anywhere else in Mexico.

Men are just too dam horny.That's the problem. Little head thinking for big head.


If the girls maken140 night, before sex just on tips and drink credits, they can stand firm on $100 to eventually it will be $150 for that 15 minutes condom blow job sex.Most bar girls don't make $100 a night, at least on week nights. I'm pretty close with a number of bar girls and they tell me it's damn difficult to pull $100 with the ratio of guys to girls. But you don't have to take their word for it. Just do the math. In any bar in Baja during the week, there are 5-1 girls to men. It's impossible given those odds unless they can find some asshole to ficha fuck or stupid enough to pay $100 for a 30 minute session. Now weekends, they make a little more than that, at least the hotter ones. But, they're not making the fortunes they are promised before the come all the way up here.


Just cause factories pay 3 bucks an hour doesn't mean these girls can only work in factory.I dated this girl last year who was young and sexy and hot enough to strip in any bar in Baja and make decent money at it but she chose to work in a factory 12 hours a day, 6 days a week instead of selling her ass in the bars. I admire her for that.

Maybe so, but Cabo and Cancun have 100 times more American tourists than Tijuana. I am out and about in Tijuana and vicinity every day. I am being generous when I say that 1% of the people I see are tourists. And that includes the beaches.Tijuana has a population of 1.3 million residents that host 300,000 touring visitors arriving into Tijuana every day.

Tijuana alone is the most visited city in the Western Hemisphere, second only to New York City. 50,000,000 people visit the city each year.

Babe, likely more than 10% (or even 20%) of the people you see in Tijuana are actually tourists, not 1%.

Not sure I agree on this, but the number of non Hispanic tourists in Tijuana are way down from where they used to be. But it's not easy to tell the Hispanic tourists because they look like everyone else. I remember in the late 90's it was packed with US college kids on a Friday or Saturday night. Not so much any more.

I admire her for that.There are many many women in Tijuana and all over Mexico who fit that description. The thought of selling their ass or friends family thinking of them as a puta is just not something they're willing to live with. Same thing in San Diego I see very hot chicks working shitty fast food or other minimum wage job when she's easily hot enough to work the San Diego clubs or ride out to Los Angeles or Las Vegas to hustle for some big bucks quick and easy. Not to mention what they could make escorting for minimum $300 an hour. I mean these chicks could easily pull in $1000 a day but yet they're flipping burgers or stocking shelves at target for $12 an hour.

Not to mention you got to be mentally tough to work the bars, where the real money is at. I've seen chicas in HK literally falling down so drunk because she drank too many fichas and a mesero has to throw her over his shoulder and carry off somewhere so she can pass out. I imagine they have a couple rooms where they just use to dump off chicas who are passing out falling down drunk. They're probably being constantly bombarded with meseros and guys trying to get them hooked on drugs and pimp them out. Other chicas trying to stab them in the back and steal their best clients. Being a bar puta is not for the faint of heart.

I would stay at Ticuan if you can afford it, or Jatay in la playas. The beach is open and might be nice during the day, chilly at night though. Not all agencies will send girls out to Jatay though so best check, if you pursue that option. La playas has what you need for ATM, grocery / rx and some great food. Jatay has great steak / shrimp tacos and if you get a ocean view room, you can enjoy the beautiful sunset while getting your cock sucked by a cute young chica.

Looking for some t-shirts, souvenirs I can take back home, etc. Is it near ZN?I shop all over Tijuana. What specifically are you looking for besides tourist knick knacks which can be purchased all up and down Avenida Revolucion?

I recommend Leather, Silver Items, and Oaxacan Crafts, Guayabera shirts.

Atoyac Leather. Calle 3.

Guayaberas. Hand Art next to Caliente Casino On Revolucion and 4th st.

Oaxacan Crafts- Little alley that empties out into Plaza Santa Cecillia.

Silver. There are two notable curio shops for silver I recommend. One 2 doors down from Ceasras on Revo same side of the street. Then directly across the street somewhat in a diagonal line from the other shop.

Candies / Mexican Treats. Mercado Hidalgo Zona Rio.

TIJUANA XOLOS Official Merchandise. XOLO TEAM STORE Plaza Rio next to the movie theater escalators.

Being a bar puta is not for the faint of heart.I totally agree with you that being a puta is not for the faint of heart. I have dated two ex putas for quite a long time in the past. One was married and had three young kids. She was married to an ahole that got drunk all the time and physically abused her and the kids. He was a taxi driver and she didn't work (in Mexicali). She took the kids and up and left him. She was then faced with the dilemma of now having to support the kids and pay rent. She went to work in the Panasonic battery factory in Tijuana where she made maximum 75.00 per week. She could not even come close to supporting herself and kids. She looked high and low for a job and could not find a thing that would give her the income needed. One day she saw an ad in the paper for a waitress with good tip opportunity. She went to the location and it turned out to be Bar Tropical. On her first day, she plopped herself on a chair (next to a line of girls) waiting for clients, scared and frightened as Hell. But she needed the money. In about an hour, a gringo came over and they sat at a table. He started talking to her and noticed she was scared and timid. He bought her copious amounts of ficha drinks and asked her to go up to the room. She started to cry. This guy felt bad. He gave her a 100 dollar bill, told her God Bless You and exited the bar. Looking at that 100 dollar bill, she thought to herself, I could never make this in a week. I have to stick this out. Which she did. She ended up going to work at Adelitas. She was a beautiful blond with a fantastic rack. I walked in one afternoon and the two of us hit it off. She confided in me and told me how much she absolutely hated working there. Hated the guys touching her like she was a piece of meat, etc. But it paid the bills. She told me that she felt like the lowest form of human being working there and one day wanted to be somebody. Long story short, I dated her for 7 years and she never worked in that bar again. We broke up. She eventually met another gringo who helped her buy a salon and to this day she works there and makes enough money to support herself.

Many other putas feel extremely degraded to work as one but options are slim, especially if they have kids and no preppa (high school). Don't get me wrong. There are some that love the money and that's the bottom line. I know I am going to hear from some that tell me I am full of crap and that these women can find a decent job in Tijuana. That is total BS. Don't believe it.

I honestly respect that woman that works in a factory or another job in Tijuana over being a puta.

I know utube travelers that have visited dozens of Mexico cities this year and still never went to Tijuana. It literally has nothing to offer other than location on the border to USA. You can't even swim in the ocean most of the time. It's more expensive than the rest if Mexico and it's the most dangerous city on earth several years running. I don't think half the tourists are mongers. Maybe 5%. I was thinking about this recently because Tijuana tinder has so many endless woman on it. Usually even in big cities I start seeing same people or run out. But its endless with Tijuana, and realized, it's all the working girls flying in for few weeks of work, and all the other Americans coming here to fly to southern Mexico.

Thursday, a lot street woman all day into 5 pm, since day before it rained. If you ever see rain in San Diego hit up Tijuana next day. Had 15 dollar offers on streets but hate the dirty mattress. Tropical, full of woman, even some that were in Chicago week ago. I think Chicago losing men and woman to tropical. Anyways had fun in trop, spent 60 on 1 woman for 45 minutes in the club. $ for Sex is not my thing anyway, ventured into Gloria hotel because its always full of 30 to 40 year old woman, 2 dollar beers. As soon as I walk in a gay Mexican maybe 25 sits next to me. I immediately explain I need new seat so chica can sit. After 5 seat changes, him following me every time, 2 waiters explaining to him to leave me alone, 1 girl I even asked, is he handsome? She said yes, I was like oh that's a shame. LOL eventually I ran out this guy wouldn't stop following me and unless someone slows their Spanish down to half speed I have no idea what they are saying anyway.

He gouges $60 for the 5-mile ride from the airport into Tijuana.$60 is nothing. You could take the public bus to trolley and make it to border for under $10. But not all mongers want to ride public transportation and potentially sit next to some homeless person who smells like urine. You could take Uber Lyft and you'll still spend at least $40 plus uncertainty of crossing on foot dealing with border officials. Of course I don't guarantee that we won't be hassled by border cops in my car, but it hasn't happened yet. Heck last trip I had a guy who didn't even have a passport. We got randomly flagged over by the border cop and all he did was check my car registration and let us go. I was thinking oh crap he's going to hassle us because this guy I got with me doesn't have a passport, but luckily he just let us go without requesting passport.

There haven't been many times, but of the 3 or 4 times over the years I've been stopped by the customs guys, they never asked for a passport or FMM. I don't recall them even asking for a car registration, come to think of it. They wanted to see in the trunk, look in the back seat, they had me open a sealed box from Amazon with a Christmas gift, and once asked to see a receipt for the value of an item ($40). You'd think they'd ask for DL, or passport, or something. That would be a good way to nab "illegal" crossers.

Me, I'm all about the $5 one-way public transportation from the airport to the border LOL. If you have a valid passport and decent excuse for travel lined up I'm assuming the chances of getting pulled into the customs office and shaken down for a bribe when walking across are not great, though that's just a guess. (I've never been pulled into customs with a valid passport, only a couple times when trying to pass with an expired one.) Point is I don't think the private transportation is necessarily worth it if your main concern is being harassed for the $30 visa fee as I think the chances of getting harassed are not great, relatively speaking. But for those who put that much value on the convenience of private transportation and saving at least 45 minutes on the travel time from the airport to Tijuana then yeah, it's probably a good deal.

Ride from SAN Airport across San Ysidro border crossing to Hong Kong club is 15 miles $60. The extra 3 miles doubled the rate to account for the long wait to return to the US.

Man, you guys really should be in Tijuana at least 3 times a week to relax and take advantage of these good deals, Mexican hospitality, delish food, hot girls, fun clubs, all so inexpensive. And stop knocking the meseros. They and their hungry wives and kids need to eat too.

I looked at all my uber trips, which show the map on route, for last 3 years, everything was doubled, simple trips, some less than a mile. For instance I used to get from hotel to beach for 4 dollars now its 8,9, up to 12. Share riding is no longer allowed so that's part of it. But yeah uber is a thing of the past for me I won't be relying on it any longer eats into budget way to fast.

I've been stuck in San Diego a uber 20 miles from old town to encinitis 330 pm was $46.Santa Fe Depot to Encinitas used to be roughly $34 Pre- Covid. I haven't used Uber since then.

Have you looked if there is a Covid Surcharge ?

I've been stuck in San Diego without rental car 3 of last 4 weeks. I looked at all my uber trips, which show the map on route, for last 3 years, everything was doubled, simple trips, some less than a mile. For instance I used to get from hotel to beach for 4 dollars now its 8,9, up to 12. Share riding is no longer allowed so that's part of it. But yeah uber is a thing of the past for me I won't be relying on it any longer eats into budget way to fast. Can fly from Vegas to nyc 70 bucks but a uber 20 miles from old town to encinitis 330 pm was $46.Since that flight was a contract carrier, not mainline, and depending WHO and what metal. The plane could be very well paid off.

I know for a -fact- a CRJ200 only needs 9 economy (paying) passengers, if paid off, to break even for a flight. Planes really sip fuel FWIW.

The labor cost of Uber isn't anything near comparable to an airline.

Are they still charge about $30 for tourist visa when walking across border?That charge was always indiscriminately applied. Reports this week suggest that they are not being as strict now that things are reopening. If you don't have a passport or can't come up with a valid reason to cross, they may still ask for you to pay for an FMM or just a bribe.

A bro recommended this dance club, allegedly with lots of hot girls partying. It's on Via Rapida, about 2 miles East of La Zona Norte. Open at 10 PM and get going by 1 AM. Beers $2.50, bottles about double store prices, so it' snot expensive.

Will hit it when we stay overnight:

So I recently read a article that Rod Stewart said he became bored with sex and banging models in the 80's and 90's. After a while it just became blah for him. As I have stated before here, I am also getting like that. My last trip I was with 2 girls and it was a 8 day trip. That would have been unheard of 15 years ago. Do you think its boredom on our parts when this happens or is it just age and reaching 50 and beyond. I haven't been able to figure which one yet. What do you mongers think. Is it boredom when we slow down or just age.

Regarding age, I think my body slowed considerably when I hit 50, and I don't produce testosterones like I did before. For example, unless I pump weight I don't get the same sex drive, boner in the morning, etc. Anyways, I did an experiment and pumped weights while avoiding all porn and sex thoughts. I lasted about 4 days before I went ape shit and lusted after everything in a skirt. So I was able to manage my sex drive. In other words, don't worry. You can prevent depression.

A few questions for you, so your about 50 yrs old.

How often do you monger?

And how physically in shape are you?

I'm hitting about 45 yrs old, I just lost a lot of weight and I'm more in shape and active then I have been in awhile.

As we get older I know we lose testosterone, I just went to HK this past weekend. And it was amazing. I try not to stay for too many days since it can get boring / repetitive. I try to make an annual visit or 2 visits per year to keep it exciting.

Sex is a lot sweeter if you somewhat care for and try to deliver pleasure to the sex partner, not just taking pleasures from them.

Guys tend to grow more secured and softer with age, caring more for others in all relationships. A lots of middle-aged guys have problems raising erections unless they have enough time to build some levels of personal rapports with the girls. Sex is a lot sweeter and more satisfying if you care for your partners, they get lots of pleasures, and if they also get lots of money from you hehe.

Anyone doing implants should get an implant dentist. A specialist with special training. Don't settle on a vanilla dentist that does taught himself implants. From my personal experience, they actually drill a hole into my jaw. It is a pretty freaky experience that makes an extraction a walk in the park. And sometimes they got to do weird shit like build a graft if you don't have enough bone.

Don't know what day of the week you are crossing back. On weekdays the pedestrian line full of workers probably starts to line up at about 4 AM. Weekends may be better.

The Blue trolley line starts running at 5 AM and stops at 12:55 AM. It may have changed recently. People said it runs 24 hours. I don't think so.

For 6:30 Am departure, you should check in at about 5 AM to make sure you have enough time to go through TSA check point. If I were you, I would cross the border back no later than 3 AM, take UBER drive to SAN, check in and wait at the gate to make sure you don't miss your flight.

The USA border has been opened to anyone in the world right now, except Mexican citizens. I believe they may be expected to wait if asylum is requested. But virtually any one else, they just need to get on the other side of the fence, be picked up by border patrol, and will be released in USA in couple days.

I checked Adelita last 2 weeks after its full reopen but could never find any girl hot enough to stay. The noobs all want to go straight for Hong Kong, just obvious what they prefer hehe.

To me Adelita meseros are way more annoying than HK. Every 3 minutes they would bring a chunky girl over and push on you. I hate that shit. I can walk around and would pick up whomever I want, don't need meseros to help.

Bar girls are deadly afraid pics of them in skimpy clothes working in titties bars would damage their reputation. Girls would complain; meseros or surveillance cameras would alert security. HK security guys are very professional and polite. They would advise you of club's policy and want to check your phone. A few years back a local guy was secretly taping the 2 girls in the lesbian show with hsi phone. Luis, the rough floor manager, took him out to the alley and really roughed him up, slamming him against wall ect. MF must have been ex LAPD South Central division hehe. Luis was so rough he got demoted to mesero job then eventually fired.

I would say Tijuana bar managers and owners are responsive to clients' complaints. I stirred up Tropical's swarm of lesbian hornets by complaining against their youngest sex pet, but managers on site held a trial, let everyone air out their grievances, then refunded me $20.

Crossed back into SY on Sunday morning at 9 AM on foot. Wait was nearly an hour. Customs grilled me why I was in Mexico so far from the east coast. Insane. Barely made it back to the airport in time.What did you say? I'm on the east coast and will be in SD for biz. Will be crossing back and forth 2 nights on foot and that is what I'm worried about.

Barely made it back to the airport in time.An hour wait 9 A on a Sunday is somewhat surprising. As for the grilling, what questions did the agent ask and what were your responses?

It's likely longer due to staffing issues. The USA border has been opened to anyone in the world right now, except Mexican citizens. I believe they may be expected to wait if asylum is requested. But virtually any one else, they just need to get on the other side of the fence, be picked up by border patrol, and will be released in USA in couple days. This is the new president's way of giving the middle finger to the prior president.I don't agree. The new president will be just as tough on border but in a humanely manner; concentration camps are not the solution especially for children.
