Hi,

Can you give me some advice on how to find these places in the San Diego area? I love Tijuana but sometimes I just can't put in the time. Any sites or places you can recommend that has nice Asian girls. I haven't had any luck.From my experience years ago they are pretty easy to spot. Look for Asian massage places in seedy strip malls. It might take one or two real massage sessions before they feel comfortable about asking you for services. They want to make sure you aren't a cop.

I went to these years ago in Santa Monica. I have seen some in SD. One in Carlsbad but I never went in figuring Tijuana is right here so why bother?

As far as I know they have been around SoCal forever.

He pleaded to a lesser charge and got a quick sentence. Otherwise a trial would drag out much longer.

Another life wasted in the most senseless way. He will have a very long honeymoon in a hot, cramped, filthy prison in Mexico.

You never know when your gonna lose your mind for 30 seconds. If he had no weapon the worst he does is choke or punch her and gets 2 days in Mexican jail. I doubt he planned to do this and concluded jailnforblife was worth it. Did you guys see the vspe shop worker in Vegas this week. He lost his cool as well not sure if he's gonna be charged but he attacked a masked robber like 10 stabs to neck and chest the robber was not armed and not trying to touch the store owner. But the owner lost his mind. He would been better off having a small aluminum bat behind the counter.

Yeah, I didn't take a taxi at all on my last trip to Tijuana in May (5 day trip that included some back and forth between San Diego). Relied solely on the $1 taxi vans, free HK limo, Uber, and Didi to get around Tijuana. Am done with taxis unless I absolutely have to.Where do you find these taxi vans, how do they work?

Where do you find these taxi vans, how do they work?After you get through Mexican customs, upon entering Tijuana by foot through that old metal turnstile, the taxi vans are immediately to the left. Beige and white colors I believe. Hard to miss. Last time I checked a few months, the fare was 10 pesos to Avenida Revolucion, though not sure if the price has increased since then with inflation. When paying in USA Dollars, the fee is 75 cents, but I usually just give them $1 because it's easier. From Avenida Revoluction it's a straightforward 5-6 minute or so walk to the Zona Norte clubs. I've been doing this my past couple of trips instead of fooling around with $7/$8 taxis if I don't see the free HK shuttle. In general, the taxi vans are super cheap. I 've taken them out to Rosarito multiple times for only 22.50 in pesos (around $1. 15), though the vans going to Rosarito leave from a different location in Zona Centro. If you know the various routes and stops (which I certainly don't) you can pretty much get anywhere you want to in Tijuana, including Playas (beach), for similar pricing. I think you might even be able to get as far down as Ensenada for super cheap if you know the routes to take.

For the taxi vans you pay the driver after the trip when exiting the van (as opposed to when you first get in) which is kind of weird, but whatever.

Thursday night went to La Cueva del Peludo for drinks. It was like 250 or 300 pesos for a bucket of beers and $8/160 pesos for lady drinks. Didn't take anyone upstairs as had company. They give your company a green wrist band. The thing that was odd was my company was propositioned by another monger that offered $500. The place was pretty packed for a Thursday night and they had a large Banda band playing music. Service is good and ok food. I would be back without company as they tend to get extremely jealous.

Anyone been to this place? https://sietedecopasbar.com/coupons.php Also noticed a new joint near an Autozone in middle of town. Forgot the name and specific location. Most likely not fully staffed, but would be interesting to check out.

Someone should make a primer tagged post to top of Tijuana board with all of the clubs in town. I am sure they have others we haven't seen, but most likely catered to Mexicans.

If riding might not be a problem, getting back into the US it's not like they are going to deny a US citizen entry into the US especially with ID and a birth certificate.

Got a buddy wanting to go to Tijuana but doesn't have passport.People driving into Tijuana are almost never stopped by Mexican Immigration. Customs officers occaisionally stop you, especially if you look like you're bringing a lot of stuff into Mexico. If they stop you, and find something that they think is subject to import duty, then they'll want to see your passport and vehicle registration. But that's really rare.

US citizens attempting to enter the USA without a passport cannot be denied entry, but they can be subjected to long delays while they somehow prove that they are citizens.

I drive in every week but would never bring someone with me if they didn't have a passport.

What did the girls look like compared to HK? What is the deal with them?Mostly average looking, but a few attractive ones. I'the say most people went to drink and were couples or groups that dance Banda. Not sure if it was due to the live band being on stage or it is just another Thursday. Just trying out different joints around the city as ZN bars have lots of amiga friends with camera phones.

The US customs will give a verbal warning. The best thing to do is to apply for a passport at the UCSD passport processing center. The immigration will accept the proof of application.

Even 1 block on revolucion will attract dangerous attention. The security guard at hotel velario wouldn't even let me stand on the curb in front waiting for a uber with no suitcase. He said you can't stand still here you will be attacked. This was around noon.

I was going to try it to Hotel Velario which is about a block away from the main strip with Hong Kong etc. I usually bring a suitcase so I would rather not walk at all.Okay, well it's a slightly shorter walk (maybe 4-5 minutes) from there. Taxi van drops you off on Revolucion across the street from the Burger King. You'd walk down towards the Arch, once you're at the Arch make a left on Primera, and keep walking until you hit Velario (which is right on Primera).

One thing about the taxi vans is they don't pull off until they're full. Depending on how large your suitcase is they might make you either wait a little bit for one of the more spacious vans or pay a little bit extra for bringing the suitcase (which presumably would take up an additional seat). I've taken large suitcases on taxi vans a couple times before and had to pay $2 total, which was still a good deal. Have had no issues walking with my luggage down to the Zona Norte area.

If you don't want to walk at all, taxi or Uber is going to be your best bet going to Velario. If you were going to HK (or one of the clubs affiliated with HK) you could just take the free shuttle from the border.

They probably don't want foreigners. Otherwise they would go to HK. The woman, in looks were at HK 7,8 girls. The rich gringo that took me, was throwing $ around. He Gave a girl a 100 to take me to VIP room. She immediately wanted 80 more. I walked out and she kept her money. I asked twice but being I wasn't in hk and in middle of nowhere, and it wasn't my money I let it go. Usually I would ask to speak to manager over 10 bucks LOL. But yeah nothing to see here unless your Mexican and want to experience how the locals do their Hong Kong.

Anyone been to this place? https://sietedecopasbar.com/coupons.php Also noticed a new joint near an Autozone in middle of town. Forgot the name and specific location. Most likely not fully staffed, but would be interesting to check out..This place has been talked about in the past, like I said before I haven't been to 7 de Copas in a long long time but they have expanded and have a large stage for live music. So I'd imagine it will be similar to CDP. Both are same family as HK so other bars might find it harder to compete. I remember before they had a bar out in that area called Titanic. It was actually a really good place to go to with a decent selection of girls that weren't gringo jaded. We'd go sometimes on a Saturday night since the Zona was too crowded. Even one of my exs friends worked there for a little while. Unfortunately I think it closed down around 2010.

Another bar that used to get talked about on some of the older boards that I never visited was Bar Charlie's. It was over across from Plaza Carrusel if I remember correctly. The guys that would talk about the place mentioned that it was more of a regular bar but had some girls that freelanced at the place. Not sure if it's still open, as I'm sure many places found it hard to stay open during COVID. With Tijuana being so large and spread out the only people that have the time to investigate are those that live in Tijuana or drive around the area often. Most guys on this board seem to walk across and don't have the time to waste looking for the hole in the wall places. The only other places I remember when I would drive around is that they use to have a strip club by the stadium if my memory is correct, and another strip club I would see when you take the free road to Rosarito. Unfortunately I would always go by during the day so not sure if it was still in business.

If your looking to just hang out and drink with some girls away from your jealous girl I think it would be best to just stay in the smaller bars in the Zona like Playboy or Manhatta. Sometimes you can find a cutie. Or even Dolce why Gabana but I haven't been in that place for awhile. Your other option is to go to Amnesia on Revolution since someone mentioned that it's still open and is still a nice place inside if they haven't changed it.

If you are entering by foot. Walking across at San Ysidro the Mexican Customs will take $20.00 for not having a passport. Coming back you will not need to pay but be asked extra questions, etc. Just tell him to buy a Passport soon. But it won't prohibit his return.

The Mexican immigration officials have been turning guys back for past few years. I have seen this on multiple occasions. The best thing is to simply go to the UCSD passport office & apply for a passport. Fill out the FMM form & take the proof of application & FMM form. Just go in the line where the Mexican citizens cross. Do not look at the Mexican immigration officers unless you are stopped. If they stop you just show the form. In most cases they will not stop you.

Even some doctors and dentists offer rides to and from border. They will be like vultures on you to get a cab or ride once you cross the border, but say no gracias and they leave you alone. Act like you know what you're doing and walk with a purpose and nobody should f with you. It is universal around the world in any destination you go visit. They all want tourists money and if you're going to do HK then take their shuttle, Adelitas, etc. Some hotels even offer shuttle service if you coordinate with them beforehand.

You shouldn't be fearful just because some mongers get their a $$ handed to them on the daily on this forum. Majority probably don't post their good times, but I've been living in Tijuana for past year and been going to Mexico since 2005. Never heard a gunshot, seen dead bodies in streets, or anything crazy. I've seen some crazy shit in Las Vegas, Atlanta, New Orleans, Afghanistan, Iraq, etc. As long as you're not into drugs, driving through narco stash houses, etc. , then you should be golden. You may get hit with cross fire if gang activity heats up, but could happen anywhere. I know Tulum and Cancun had reports where they were doing a shootout during breakfast and some were even on jetskis. I call that a true adrenaline rush if you ever need one. Have fun and stay safe!

In all fairness though they get almost nothing from the business they work for by doing the massage so their income really depends on the tip.

Any one throw caution to the wind and know first hand if any of the big 3 clubs (HK, AB, CC) are operating today? HK is posting on their social media accounts that they're open and operating, but they were doing that since yesterday. I've heard from others that Zona Norte was effectively shutdown cause of the ongoing concerns of violence.

The Cartel never play games and do not tolerate any disrespect.I agree. There's been past stories of strip clubs attacked in Mexico and deaths. In other parts Mexico few years ago now. In this situation, cartel is literally telling people, they don't want to hurt anyone, but they are closing the city down to some degree. Better to to respect that, let them feel like they are closing the city down, placate them, and wait to see if Mexico releases their amigos in prison to make things go back to the normal safe Tijuana we all know.

As someone who has stayed in motels in Tijuana for 4 trips now, I will share my experiences and hope to hear some real ratings for places to stay in Tijuana.

- Cascadas. We all know this one, so no reason to write a big review. It's essentially double the price of comparable places in ZN. Clean and professional, as you would expect. I would recommend staying here if 1) You don't care about price, 2) You really enjoy the HK experience, or 3) If it is your first time outside of your home country and you are not comfortable with safety / navigating a language barrier.

- Hotel Leyva. Avoid. Tons of cockroaches, baby and large. Wifi unusable. Rude front desk manager. I woke up with multiple roaches in my shoes.

- Motel Diaz. Highly recommended! You would never guess it from Google maps, but I took a chance on this place and have stayed here my last 3 trips. Prices are very reasonable, with options for double bed / air conditioning. Clean; never seen any bugs. No one comes in your room if you don't ask for cleaning, but cleaning ladies are happy to provide what you need. Breakfast is included, cooked and delivered from a nearby cafe with a few options. I go for eggs, chorizo, tortillas, rice, and beans; filling! There is a door guard, and for two stays I have made friends with them. Girls can be brought back if they show their identification. The reason I would like to try a different place is because of the location; it's a block from the ZN core. Whether because of the gay nightclub across the street, the drug dealers hanging around the Arch, or because I am a young foreigner, but if a police car drives down this area of Revolucion and sees me, there is a 100% chance that they will probe you for drugs and kindly remove some pesos from your wallet. Since other mongers have been incredulous when I tell them this, I should clarify that I am not exaggerating. On every trip I have been shouted at and probed around the Arch at least twice. This doesn't happen very often in the core ZN.

So, I am curious about Hotel Ibiza. Has anyone stayed here recently? WIFI useable? I imagine that it is a loud but convenient experience where you can bring the Ibiza girls to your room without having to pay.

An escort messaged me that restaurants, stores and other businesses have pretty much reopened.I was yesterday (Tuesday evening) at Zona Norte. It looks like everything is back to normal in Tijuana. At 9 PM Hong Kong was full, Adelita: there weren't a lot of guys inside (2-3 chicas per customer.) There are some chicas from Colombia in Adelita. If you like chicas more rounded then Adelita is the place.

I drove by and looked kind of dead from outside during the day, but near where the swap meets are located. The logo shows a woman on a pole. I might have to check it out one day.

Stay on the third floor due to the music from La Malquerida. Rizo de oro above bar tropical was always decent too. Have heard people rave about Velario on Calle primera but I've never stayed there. Plus always thought too dark and isolated to walk late at night. Moe.

Trabajando por un mejor Tijuana, Roughly translated "Working to make a Better Tijuana".

So eastside Constitution Avenue is currently being improved by new sidewalk and drainage laterals. I wish they would replace those tripping and falling hazard aka water meter boxes.

They have installed banners with the re-imagined vision of Tijuanas Avenida constitution with the above message.

The image appears to be a 3-story hotel and at the rear is an existing multi level parking (Libra parking) that will accommodate this new hotel. (Currently closed Hotel Irma).

Just adjacent to this future hotel are Future renditions of The Subway sandwich shop (doubt it).

Adjacent to this Is KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) which I suspect will be the existing KFB-Kentucky Fried Buches. Which serves fried chicken necks served with tortillas.

AFAIK, KFB was showcased in either Anthony Bourdain food travels in Mexico or another travel food show.

And yes, streetgirls count is about a dozen on Constitution Avenue afternoon / evenings.

Police vehicles and military vehicles are cruising by about 3 x normal.

'Sex servers' registered to work in Tijuana doubled in the past 4 years by: Salvador Rivera.

Posted: Aug 25,2022 / 06:10 PM MDT Updated: Aug 25,2022 / 06:10 PM MDT.

City reports recent spike in sexually transmitted diseases.

Tijuana (Border Report) — The number of so-called "sex servers" in Tijuana has nearly doubled in the last four years according to the city's medical services office.

Back in 2018, according to the agency's numbers, it had issued almost 5,500 permits to women who wanted to work as prostitutes in Tijuana, the number is now at 10,774 active permits.

But Gerardo López Montes, head of Tijuana's Public Health office, indicated many women are failing to register and document their intent to work in the sex industry.

He believes there could be as many as 30,000 women currently working in Tijuana as prostitutes.

Notorious for prostitution, former tourism official urges Tijuana to promote it.

"We are trying to verify permits every day, we're inspecting places where sex servers work to make sure they are registered and following protocols," said López Montes. "We're trying to get them to comply, this is to the benefit of all who work in this industry. ".

He said registration by prostitutes is a requirement and those without this permit can't work.

Last weekend, a sting operation netted 27 women who were working without a permit.

Feds see rising tide of sexual exploitation as potential victims spend more time online.

Tijuana City Manager Jorge Salazar Miramontes said the sex industry in Tijuana used to be centered in one neighborhood near the border. Nowadays, sex workers can now be found throughout the city.

"We're seeing them on the east side and other areas," he said.

When asked about human trafficking being the primary reason for the increased number of sex servers in her city, Tijuana Mayor Montserrat Caballero said migration was the real factor.

"Nowadays, it's not just women from Mexico, they're foreigners from places like Venezuela and Colombia who come here to work. Some leave but others take their place and that's why the number has doubled," Caballero said.

The mayor announced more patrols and inspections of bars are planned to make sure the women have their permits and are being tested regularly for sexually transmitted diseases.

Caballero said they are being more vigilant following an increase in reported cases of gonorrhea and other STDs.

She did not specify how many cases have been confirmed but said they were traced to one club.

"We had an outbreak in one bar, two girls tested positive," said Caballero. "We are going to protect our citizens. The sex servers are also citizens so we will protect them as well, they are the ones at greater risk. ".

Aside from gonorrhea, cases of hepatitis and Rickettsia have also been reported.

Rickettsia causes Rocky Mountain spotted fever and can cause serious damage to internal organs such as kidneys and the heart.

I popped in to see Siete de Copas, not sure if spelling is off, but it is a large stadium building structure. It is two levels with a huge stage for concerts. Since it was a weekday, the place was kind of boring and no live bands. A cubeta was 250 pesos and not sure about ladies as none interested me and had company. So off to La Cueva del Peludo, which is down the street and a cubeta was also 250 or 300 pesos. They had a live band and seemed more like a dance club, since so many locals were dancing together. It was more lively and they had decent food. We didn't see anyone interesting so no strip dance or grinding. Afterwards went to another club in ZN and it was interesting, but keep that story for myself. If you ever decide to bring a girl that used to work at one of the clubs, then they need to wait 3 years or you have to buy 30 drinks ($150) for them to join. Another money grab for the clubs exploiting the poor girls even after they've left the industry. Hope you guys are having fun and staying safe.

The 30,000 working girl figure seems outlandish. There is roughly 20-40 SG's in Zona at any given time. HK has about 30-40 girls working. Many of the hookers must be passing through or are not working full time. It would nice if there was more good looking light skinned SG's & SW's in the zona.

I'd say 30 to 40 during the day shift.

If you are wanting more of a GFE you are more likely to find that with a club girl.

The number may or may not be outlandish if you include every working girl who worked even just a week in Tijuana. Besides the big clubs in Zona, there's Deja Vu, La Cueva del peludo, and a smattering of smaller bars all over.

Between all the big & small bars with all the shifts and all the street, escort & massage parlor girls there might be 2,000 working on any given day and perhaps there is a lot of turnover.

Still not sure why some girls work the clubs and some work the streets. Age wise you can find young girls in both areas. Maybe even younger on the streets.

I think the clubs girls are the best but for $25 in pesos can not beat some of the value on the streets. Some guys just need a pretty body to stick their dick in and what the girl does has no meaning on their value to the experience.

I have not actually tried getting to know any of the street girls outside one. Maybe this would change things for me.

I believe the numbers. There are 100's of girls in the HK on any given night. The girls change out a lot. I have been doing a lot of trips in 2022 before I had a break starting July and the girls always change up.

Anyone know the club for all the STDs talked about in the end? That must be the BBFS club LOL.

I think I posted my experience a couple of years ago. It sucks. I think it's because single guys within flying distance are coming in, and most of the better girls are home. As I recalled, there were more guys than girls. By 10 pm, you better have a girl and a table or you will be alone and standing by midnight. Yeah, it's going to cost you a bundle to keep her for 2 hours. As a local, I'm going in the daytime to get my fix. Then get the fuck back across the border before night hits. And leave New Year's Eve for the newbies and tourists to play in.Other than NYE in Tijuana are there a decent amount of SGs and bar girls in the day of NYE and New Years Day?

I have not actually tried getting to know any of the street girls outside one. Maybe this would change things for me.In my opinion, there's handful of reasons a girl is on the street. Here's some. No working papers for Mexico, traveled to Tijuana lost her papers even if she's a citizen, small chance on very rare occasion underage. I only say that to warn guys to ask for identification of they look 21 or under. Could even be a sting. You got others who don't look good enough for the clubs, some are so fat and ugly even the dump bars don't need them, a lot of them are not sociable enough for the club, while 95% of the girls I've talked to, or been with, seem like nice girls, opposed to usa "hood rat" or " white trash" girls in USA, these streets girls, still tend to be quiet, lacking sense humor, or inability to act like they are having fun. So even in the club it will be same and they won't fit in. Some don't like the smoke, some don't like being touched for 1 dollar. Although touching in HK is on the way out. Some girls can make more selling sex in street, for instance, 1 guy an hour at 35 bucks average is pretty good income for 6 hours work. I ran into a HK girl on street whose face had developed monkey pox but this was 3 years ago. Felt bad for her. I don't know what illness she had but it looked like the monkey pox we see on the news for gay guys. Also the street girls may be in the street to avoid having to kiss men as kissing is not normal In that job.

I decided to spend the weekend in Tijuana. Flew in Sunday afternoon and left Tuesday afternoon. Cruised around the Zona but had decided to try an agency girl for the first time. Sunday is not a good day to try and agency girl as most of them do not work. However, Greys Girls had two available until 7 pm. I stayed in the zona too long and missed out on them. Monday morning Musas had a girl available to come to the hotel. I had some points so booked the Hampton Inn. It does not appear to be popular with the girls and there were only a few available. Maybe it was the weekend. The girl was ok at 11:00 on Monday morning, seemed a bit shy and took a while but was good. Later Monday afternoon I went to the zona and met with a fellow ISG member. We had an enjoyable walk around which culminated in a late lunch at Titos.

General observations: Lots of policia especially around the arch. Monday evening I had my driver pick me up there and I was uncomfortable waiting there due to the police presence and activity. I did not see anyone apprehended but they would drive up to a car waiting and hit their siren to make them move. There were policia cars, trucks and several pair on bicycles. I watched them make a woman move who was sitting next to a store on Revolution a bit south of the arch.

More numbers of street girls than I had seen earlier in the year. Those I talked with were asking a minimum of 300 for regular and 400 to 500 toda sucky fucky sin ropa. I did session with one Sunday evening and it was ok. Nothing to write home about but better than most in the states.

The bars were not a whole lot different from earlier in the year. I was quoted 80 to 100 in HK. Did not ask in Chicago.

I did enjoy the agency girl more than the SW but I could have had 4 SWs for the same price.

The Hampton Inn did not say anything about me having the girl come to the elevator and go to the room with me. One thing to note, the Hampton Inn offers free rides around the city up to 1:00 pm. I had them take me to the arch Monday afternoon and to San Ysidro border Tuesday afternoon. In the evenings Taxi was $15.00 from the arch to the Hampton inn and Uber was around $12.00.

Interesting new project I just don't have the confidence it will become a reality. If it does it will sure make Newsom and his over budget bullet train look that much more pathetic.

https://bajadock.wordpress.com/2022/09/05/tijuana-rosarito-sky-train/When I drive around Tijuana, I noticed that many projects are abandoned about half completed. I suspect that this will be another half-done project that will start well, then fizzled out, abandoned and left as an eyesore. Corrupted businessmen and politicians will get paid. And the common people will take it up the ass again.

I see they said it over and over that it is mostly privately funded. I call bullshit and see another pork barrel project.

https://bajadock.wordpress.com/2022/09/05/tijuana-rosarito-sky-train/The only project that matters is getting people back and forth from Mexico to the USA in timely manner. The fact that they are breaking ground on a new border crossing in Otay without even making use of Pedwest tells me everything I need to know.

Interesting how the experiences of Zona Norte change me and my perceptions.

I am away on vacation and normally a $50+ Motel 6 that looks kind of shitty with a rough looking crowd around the property would scare me away. But after spending enough time in Zona Norte and a few hotels around there the Motel 6 didn't scare me away at all.

The good news is nobody is banging on the door after 30 minutes!

The one bullshit thing that seems to have affected all hotels is this late check in time. Like 3 pm! Wtf. You used to be able to check in like at 11 am at hotels in the 70's.

I don't know what changed but it's bullshit now that you rent a "room" for the night but can't get into the room till 3 pm! What bull shit.

https://bajadock.wordpress.com/2022/09/05/tijuana-rosarito-sky-train/There is a railroad project connecting Mexicali, Tecate, Tijuana, Rosarito and Ensenada. Another project is the extension of the trolley line from San Ysidro to Av. Revolucion. They have already started work on this trolley extension project (cost estimate).

That's is why I like to stay at least 2 nights in a hotel most of the time to smooth out the 3 PM check-in BS. Some hotels will let you check in early if the room not occupied the night before.

For me and others including a regular who spends more than I do touching is a must. I hope people talking about the touching girls do not like but guys try to force on the girls.

Something else I thought about why street girls do not work in clubs is some girls do not like drinking that much. Had a girl refuse a drink because she did not want alcohol July 4. In June I was buying a girl water for same price as this girl was at end of her shift and did not want more alcohol. As long as I get my standard interview idgaf what she drinks but I am sure clubs put pressure on these girls to drink beer.


In my opinion, there's handful of reasons a girl is on the street. Here's some. No working papers for Mexico, traveled to Tijuana lost her papers even if she's a citizen, small chance on very rare occasion underage. I only say that to warn guys to ask for identification of they look 21 or under. Could even be a sting. You got others who don't look good enough for the clubs, some are so fat and ugly even the dump bars don't need them, a lot of them are not sociable enough for the club, while 95% of the girls I've talked to, or been with, seem like nice girls, opposed to usa "hood rat" or " white trash" girls in USA, these streets girls, still tend to be quiet, lacking sense humor, or inability to act like they are having fun. So even in the club it will be same and they won't fit in. Some don't like the smoke, some don't like being touched for 1 dollar. Although touching in HK is on the way out. Some girls can make more selling sex in street, for instance, 1 guy an hour at 35 bucks average is pretty good income for 6 hours work. I ran into a HK girl on street whose face had developed monkey pox but this was 3 years ago. Felt bad for her. I don't know what illness she had but it looked like the monkey pox we see on the news for gay guys. Also the street girls may be in the street to avoid having to kiss men as kissing is not normal In that job.

They have already started work on this trolley extension project (cost estimate).It will be interesting to see if any of these train projects come to life. When I lived in Tijuana they were promoting the train to Tecate on the weekends, thought of doing it but some weekends it would run then it wouldn't so we never had the chance to try it. If they can get something to go thru Valle de Guadalupe that visits the wineries would be a great tourist experience. They have something like that in Guadalajara that goes to Tequila.

At some point coming up soon I might want to rent a hotel room for a month at a nice hotel. To be honest I have used the same place for years. Now with Tijuana having so many options I thought maybe stay in one with a pool that allows escorts. Looking for a luxury stay.

Maybe a Marriot or Pueblo Amigo?

Which one would you stay at for a month a time?

I could go from $3 to $5 K for the month.

Have any of you asked for extended stay prices at the Ticuan?

The Lucerna could be done for $5 K, probably same hooker rules apply. I'd stay in either one. They're both nice.

For those who've never been, K Tower is a luxury property "within" the Lucerna complex.

I was in old Zona Norte earlier this week and noticed something new. It had been a cool two months since I had been there, so I don't know if it had been there for a while and I simply didn't notice.

On the North East intersection of Primera and Constitucion, they've demolished the sidewalk and looks like they're demolishing or renovating the space there. There's advertisement of Hotel Cascadas / Rizo de Oro (same business entity that owns Hong Kong and Tropical Bar).

Anybody know if they're expanding? If so, they're becoming a juggernaut of Zona Norte. I've attached pics of before and what I saw earlier this week.

Maybe visit IBIS Zona Rio for a look.Palacio Azteca is not really what I'd consider luxury. It's fairly basic. I've stayed there several times and have no real problems with it. It's like an upscale Motel 6. IBIS rooms are pretty dinky. They're more of a trendy "business" hotel. I've not stayed in the one in Tijuana but I've stayed in IBIS in other countries.

The K tower is a great place to stay. Have stayed there and have stayed in one of the rooms in the Lucerna complex. Very good service. Lot of people speak English. The morning breakfast was fantastic. Not a place for those looking to pinch pennys but affordable for what one is getting. I do suggest leaving the car there and getting taxi. When I would come back there was usually difficultly getting my car parked. To their credit they figured out how to get cars parked for people staying there but sometimes it was not easy.

Do not know how they are about hookers in general. I had my girl there. She was actually on her better behavior in terms of what she was wearing. Did not try bringing another girl there during my stay.

I'm driving over on Friday and returning Monday. The hotel I'm staying at offers a medico / comercio "fast pass", but I was told by a relative that the medico / comercio lane has been closed. Should I try the medico lane at the "all traffic lanes" or go thru the ready lanes instead. Any advice?

BTW, I've driven many times and have used both the "all traffic lanes" and "ready lanes" and haven't really noticed the difference in wait times. I even used the sentri lane once by accident. CBP was cool but gave me a warning.

Thanks in advance.Almost every pharmacy has some, just walk in and ask wherever you see one. You can ask a handful to compare prices unless one quotes you a pretty good deal then just take it. Sometimes they'll offer more of a discount if you buy 2 bottles instead of one.

From my experience it's 50/50 on whether it'll flow at a decent rate or just drag on til eternity.

Don't know if medical lane is open but wouldn't hurt to try it IMO. You can also get a good sense of how the regular lane is looking because sometimes the border wait app is way off.

Piri closes about 6 PM. They sell Uni-Lab generic sildenafil 100 MG, 2 -4-1, 2 boxes total 16 pills for 95 pesos or $5, about 30 cents a pill. I usually take 10 MG. That brand works well with little side effects. Guys also like more expensive brands like Maxifort.

There are a few farmacias on Revo open late at night. Ask for Uni-Lab brand. The box has 2 x1 labels on it. That late at night use only busy streets with people. Avoid the sidewalks. Walk in the middle of the street to avoid being grabbed, just to be safe.

Here's a report on my first day as a first time visitor. I did a few laps around the area between late morning to late afternoon. The majority of the street girls were in the alley, and in my opinion the best of the lot, which varied from 1's to 6's. Although I did find a nice one outside Malquerida. She quoted me 1100 for completo, which seemed out of line for a street girl at least from the research I've done. I speak passable Spanish and talked her down to 800 which included the room. For a Tuesday there were about 50-60 girls out in the afternoon. Afterward, went to one of the small bars to have a drink, can't remember the name. It's on the same street as the Valerio on the other side of Constitution. The line up wasn't that great, but it was nextdoor to where I had just eaten, so tried it out. Anybody have recommendations on any of the smaller bars or clubs besides the big names where a guy can just sit, drink some whiskey, and take in the sights? I'd like to spread my time around in addition to HK, Tropical, and Chicago.

I'd like to spread my time around in addition to HK, Tropical, and Chicago.I specialize in zona norte small bars or should I say bars that most visitors to the zona norte would never want to waste their time in.

Best of the bunch would be Rio Verde, located mid block on primera on the south side of the street between the arch and constitution. As far as shitty bars this place will at least give you a chance to find that diamond in the rough. If you are over 6 ft tall beware of low ceilings.

Across the street from Rio Verde you have Fracosa bar cheap drinks and if you go at the right time there might even be some activity. I would often use this place as a barometer to see if little baster was ready for more action. This was accomplished by doing a $1 slow dance with a fracosa chubby chica.

In the alley across from HK this is a good place to drink alone, you might find a local in this place sleeping next to his cerveza. On this past Sunday they actually had a couple cute bar maids working but that was quite rare.

And the creme of the crop bar Reno. This place is not worth a visit unless you don't mind foul oders but are curious to see where hookers who don't know when its time to retire end up. Its like stepping into a bad movie but I guess if you enjoy dive bars you should at least visit this place once. As a joke, the other day we asked many riff raff on the streets for directions to bar reno. Nobody knew where it was until we found someone practicly standing in front of the place who pointed us in the right direction. I won't even give directions to this place since I don't need any more enemies.

And if you are wondering why I didn't mention places like Gold Palace La caretta or La gloria I consider those places right up there with HK hehehehe.

I remember some years back when I lived in Atlanta, GA here in the USA I went to an underground swinger party. While there I recognized an escort I used to see posting on Backpage or Craigslist and I got to talking with her. She had a smoking hot cheerleader type body with some natural dd and during the discussion I asked her if she danced and was shocked when she told me she was too scare and shy to get naked in a club. But had no problem having sex with random guys for money in private. I thought to myself that's odd but ok. Of course the next day I ended up calling her up when I saw her posting offering her services LOL.

The dive bars are a adventure but you need to be paying attention to everyone and you w⁰ill be noticed and everyone's gona want your money. Maqereda, in alley has woman who look good but they aren't purchasable as far as I know. But if you want to feel normal for 15 minutes, and not be assumed to be a monger, that's your place. To just drink in peace, in non monger bars, el museo next to arch has good bar half inside half on sidewalk. Otherwise rubix an 80's rock club is fun. The crowd is mexican 25 to 35 year olds.

Difference is, I've personally seen the store security and Tijuana cops fight and arrest thieves on Constitucion, which is more than I can say for California cops nowadays!

This show is worth tens of millions $ with the best and most powerful weapon systems being deployed by US Marines, Navy and Airforce, far more exciting than looking up the long legs and hot crotches of strippers, should not be missed.

The stars of the show are US Marines' F-35 B at 11 AM, US Marines air / ground strike at 1 PM, US Air force F-22 at 2 PM and Navy's F / A -18 Blue Angels at 3. An you-2 will have a fly by on Friday then will be on static display, plus lots of jet and prop planes, helicopters and drones will be on static display and of course lots of hot, sweet, spicy local chicas will be out loving caressing the long, big and powerful war planes.

Cheapest Grand Stand ticket is $19 this year, but we would just sit for free on the taxi way and watch the show. Beers and food are sold at many booths but the lines are long, so it's best to bring your own food and drinks so you don't miss out on any part of the show.

A couple bros are going down, spend the day at the airshow then hop over the border for an official all night inspection of the troops in Hong Kong, Tropical, Adelita, Chicago. Come down for an exciting show then have some serious fun with hot chicas.

Any suggestions on bars outside Zona Norte to watch NFL? Whether that be bars on Revolucion (probably the most convenient) or otherwise?

Any suggestions on bars outside Zona Norte to watch NFL? Whether that be bars on Revolucion (probably the most convenient) or otherwise?I think the best place is the caliente casino next door to pueblo amigo hotel. This place will give you the feel of Vegas. Plenty of tv's. They serve food and drink and you can bet on the games. They even have a couple cute mesaras and ticket takers. Only negative is unlike the zona they will be wearing clothes.

You might want to go to Caliente casinos. They serve drinks, have cold AC when it is humid, and usually crowds of sports fans to talk to about which teams to bet on. There are two Caliente Casinos on Revo, but the one next to Sanborns has an upstairs football lounge with lounger chairs, big screens and sometimes free beer and snacks brought to you during big games. The problem with watching sports in HK is the constant distractions (meseros demanding you buy drinks and chicas demanding $1) and loud music so you can't hear the TV discussion of the NFL plays. Which is likely common with most bars outside Zona Norte.

I'd imagine the TVs play in Spanish (which I mostly don't understand) so probably doesn't matter too much about not being able to hear the TV discussion anyway. Never been too big of a fan of the casinos down there. As someone with a lot of Vegas experience, they come off more as big rooms that happen to have some slot machines and a few table games in them then a true casino experience. Not a big deal but another thing that slightly irked me is, unlike US casinos, they charge a small fee for replacement player cards ($2 or $3 I think).

With all that said, the big Caliente casino in the Agua Caliente section of Tijuana I thought was a pretty nice casino so maybe I'll check that one out on Sunday. But maybe the Pueblo Amigo location suggested earlier caters more to American customers since it's so close to the border?

I don't see a board named such.Try these:

1. For hotels used short time by bar girls, see the forum for the bar in question.

2. For hotels used short term by street girls, see the Streetwalker forum.

3. For girl-friendly hotels used by escorts, try the Escorts forum.

4. For other hotels, try Yelp or Orbitz (grin)

We arrived at Miramar about 10 AM. Lines at both West and East gates were over a mile long and not moving. Looks like public interests in the airshow was very high after 2-year CoVid hiatus and also the war in Ukraine. Base was open at 8 and lots of people got in early. It was likely cars could not be directed to parking areas fast enough so traffic inside the base was back up, unlike previous year when we could just drive in quickly and parked on the tarmac.

After waiting a while we decided to drive out to I15 to watch the F-35 B demo from the freeway. For my aviation-inclined bros, the demo was significant because the rest of the free world, all NATO countries, Britain, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, I e most of Europe, except France, plus Australia, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore ect are all banking on the F35 as the spear head to protect their territories in the coming war. These countries are banking on VTOL capabilities to operate the planes on smaller carriers, also to hide and protect their assets away from obviously vulnerable airbases against preemptive strikes and operate out of high ways in case of war.

The F35 B put on a very impressive demo flight with VTOL, lots of hovering and low speed flights. Stealth features will help it evade first shots and strike long range hits against incoming threats. The smallest turning circle at low speed was about 5,000-feet diameter. It does not have the agility of the best dog fighters like F-22.

It's fantastic the airshow is right next door to Tijuana where we went for cold beers and hot girls after a day of hard work hehe.

I have taken the trolley from old town a few times recently. Taking trolley from old town is a very low cost & fairly quick way to travel to the border, I find that it only takes 10-20 minutes to longer to reach the border. The only big downside is that the trolley only runs till 12:59 am.

FMM.

I have also noticed recently that the Mexican immigration officals have have stopped their scan and are no longer charging non-Mexican citizens $30 for the visa. They are making people stand in line for a one day Visa. They have a new one that is tan now. Now technically you are supposed to get the old white ones stamped. So I might ask if I can get a white one stamped the next time I cross.

Headed out early in the morning from Orange County to San Diego to catch the Miramar Air Show. I was excited about this event since I was going with our friend Captain Solo who is a former airplane pilot. I had never talked to him about his experiences with planes, so on the way to the show I picked his brain about flying airplanes and the conversation was very good. He is a wealth of knowledge!

Once at the Miramar show, the vehicle lines were very long to get in. Making the best of the situation, we found a nearby parking lot next to a sparsely grassed field with some tree shade, and we set a picnic to enjoy the show from afar. We got to hear the roar of an F-35 as it did maneuvers, an impressive roar indeed. This parking lot was also a pick up spot for navy personnel and we interacted with some of them as they came and went dressed in their navy ceremonial uniforms.

By the afternoon we hopped the border to Tijuana to inspect the troops at the HK and Chicago clubs. The uniforms of these lady troopers were much skimpier than those of the US navy personnel, but we were not complaining, hehe.

As I walked around the HK club, a cute recruit in a school girl outfit reached out to me and I obliged, doing a hands-on inspection of her goods and assets. I reached into my pocket and gave her what I thought was a dollar. As I walked away, I notice her face light up with joy. Moments later, I realize that I had given her a 5 $ bill instead of a 1 $ dollar bill!

Sitting down at a table with the crew, enjoying Tecates and Bohemias, a hot stripper in a blue dress gets on stage above us, and proceeds to do a smashing pole dance, every now and then holding eye contact with me. The way she moved was dazzling! I tipped her a dollar, but really should have given HER the 5 $ dollars instead.

When the dance was over, she went out of sight. I searched the club looking to buy her a ficha drink and get to know this fine soldier, but when located she was already with some guys at a table. Hopefully, I get to see her again on another tour of duty, and give my appreciation of her beauty and dance, an image now seared into my mind.

Next we went to the Chicago Club, had more Tecates and Behemias, enjoying more stripper shows. They had some good dancers in Chicago as well, with a more relaxed vibe.

We decided to head out for a seafood restaurant. As we crossed the street on the corner of Ave Constitucion and CL Cohalila going west, some shots rang out on the opposite corner, it was four or five gunshots. A guy jumped into a waiting car which sped off. I didn't bother to get closer for more details, instead continued on our way to enjoy an amazing lunch at the seafood place (the food is so good in Tijuana!)

The shooting happened in front of Hotel Acapulco or Hotel Rapido. I've had many hot sessions with chicas who stand in front of these hotels, including earlier that day, and will continue to do so until I am the one who drops dead, hehe.

Later on we met up with another bro in HK, a TJ veteran who has been going for more than 10 years. It was my first time meeting him, we compared notes, sharing useful tidbits of information while enjoying the atmosphere of the club. I encourage guys to meet up, be social and support, to maximize the good time.

We left Tijuana as the sun was setting, not yet dark. Surprisingly the pedestrian line was not long, barely starting at the hall entrance. The line moved quickly, and it was a smooth ride home.

Thank you Captain Solo and La Zona for another emotion filled, action packed trip!

Frogg is a good wingman to hang out with in Tijuana. We always have fun together.

HK girls were way to aggressive as usual. They kept coming over pushing for fichas and I had to turn them down again and again. I only buy fichas for girls I am interviewing to take to the hotel. I would not waste time and money on girls who do not meet my minimum criteria for beauty and grace, then have to spend time looking at pictures of their kids and their fogs hehe. A few girls I know are just so beautiful that I would huy fichas for them just to hold them in my arms and look at them up close. Then they would grope my crotch trying to arouse me so I have to take them to the hotel.

On Saturday a few bros showed up later, but I did no know their plans, and had no internet inside HK for communication. It's fun to hang out with the bros, trade girls' intels and strategies on how to get the sexiest times with them.

Frogg,

I was going to meetup with a few fellow Tijuana vets this Saturday including Solo but our line of communication got crossed up and we seem to have missed one another although I think we were in some of the same places possibly at the same time. I am a newbie of sorts to the Tijuana scene and was trying to get some pointers from so of the vets on this forum. I hear there might be another trip meetup trip planned in the coming weeks I might try and be part of that one maybe we can link up.

Slicknaz.

I texted you the day before. Looks like you never got them. Your texts to me on Saturday were not delivered until Sunday, even though we both use TMobile, so WTF? I also called you twice after 6 in HK. Calls were picked up but got no voice. I never had communication problems this bad in Mexico or anywhere in the world. We also missed another noob we were supposed to pick up near the border but had to cancel due to the change in the airshow timeframe. He did not want to cross by himself to meet up in HK.

We missed out on a good meet up with a couple knowledgeable bros, straight-up, honorable gentlemen who would share their experiences unselfishly, and are a lot of fun to party with. They arrived later at night, 7 or 8, but did not text me in advance so I could not wait for them.

Jack M goes to Tijuana a couple times a week. He progressed through a series of bars and escorts GFs with the hottest GFEs. Some of the girls look very sweet and pretty. This Saturday he drove downtown to meet with 2 sisters for a date, but got stood up, disappointed, came back to HK to sit with us. He also spent a lot of time in Asia and know the beast deals there. He's a good guy to know.

Another bro has been going to Tijuana about a year. He was likely sitting on the balcony with a Whiskey bottle raining greens on strippers on the stage. He met up with a series of HK girls, flew to their hometown for week-long visits with their families, got 2 meals a day, clothes washed and ironed, out to parties and concerts, even romantic presents from the girls. This is the best way to travel to really get to know the land and the people. I am trying to arrange for trips with my favorite girls to vacation places like Cancun, Oaxaca or Chiapas. Let's see if I will get anywhere. A few hot girls in Chicago welcome visit to their hometowns.

Both bros speak little Spanish but had good long-term relationships with bar girls beyond the ST sessions in the hotel.

Another bro was also looking for us in HK. He prefers SA girls, taking them out to dinners, clubbing then long sessions in the hotel. He speaks fairly good Spanish, said SA girls are not as hot as HK's but sessions are much sweeter. I agree relationships and sex are much sweeter with good communication, but I speak very limited Spanish, using Translate is awkward and just too much work. But I am still willing to spend time and effort for the sweetest girls I meet.

I regret not meeting my well-regarded bros this week. Will try to communicate better in advance so we meet up and have fun in the clubs.

It's been the norm for the last few months. Lingering consequence of C19 and office closures. They'll randomly be openings, but you'd have to check regularly to book them as soon as they become available.

Americans are supposed to do global entry. During covid I got my global entry in my hand two weeks from the night I decided to do it. Appointments open up at LAX office 4 miles east of the airport in LOS Angeles. They open up the day before. You just have to look at your cell phone the day before and keep checking maybe a 100 times. I probably checked 30 times.

I did global entry but a buddy of mine did sentri. He's American, so I don't think nationality matters as long as you pass the background checks. The bottleneck has been in being able to get an appointment. From what I recall, the earliest appointment he could get was 3 or 4 months out after he got his conditional approval.

You could always get a $20 CIM / BBBJ from one of the freelancers to balance the books until the next session. Girls will always try to use an excuse to raise the prices. You just need to learn how to negotiate and most importantly WALK AWAY when they start uttering nonsense rules / prices.

San diegi and LOS angles population has skyrocketed. They haven't built new Zona Norte anyplace around here. In mexixo, the slower the business has been the higher the prices get to cover foe the decreased profits. That's the formula they used for covid times. All the girls are told what their prices are. Otherwise we would have price wars and instead of the 120 average it would be about 50 60. Plus the recession,. What does that even mean to any one individual person? Business owners have never had so much free labor and free money from the government that they have now. Everyone is perfecting how to be a millionaire one way or another. The only people left behind from. The inflation are the minimum wage workers. Like myself. We got priced out of Hong Kong etc. But everyone is making a fortune.

Done that a couple of times myself this last year. It takes longer than usual to find a ride as there isn't as many drivers available at those hours, but it's worked out. And if you want to avoid lines, Global Entry or SENTRI is the way to go.

I'm worried there will be no Ubers in San Diego at 4 am. I researched the blue line on the trolley starts at 445 am. I guess I could take that if no uber shows up.

BUT I have had experience with a taxi rushing me from the San Ysidro border to the airport at 7/8 am in the morning so I could make my flight on time. Got extremely drunk my last night in Tijuana a few years ago and overslept. Woke up in my hotel at Cascadas around 2 hours before my flight was set to take off LOL. Packed all my shit quick and jumped in the first taxi to the border. By the grace of god there was pretty much zero line at the border at that time for whatever reason (took me maybe 15 minutes total to get through) but I still wasn't going to make it in time taking my usual route of trolley and I didn't have Uber / Lyft set up on my phone back then. But I did see a few taxis lined up on the side when existing the border screening area so I waived the first one over. Guy told me he could get me to the airport for $60 so I went with it since I really had no other options. He sped through traffic a bit but I did end up barely making my flight in time LOL.

So worst case scenario there should at least be some taxis on the USA Side of the border around as they're anticipating there will be some who need rides ASAP with the trolley not being available at that time.

Curious to know what happened to the sex work industry during the last recession.The only time I remember rates going down or staying down was after 9/11. Tijuana turned into a ghost town in the tourist areas and those of us that still showed up were treated great. At that time CC was my favorite bar. Before 9/11 they had some girls trying to get guys for $80 when normal price was $60. After 9/11 they would be very happy with $60 and you could probably get many for less.

As another poster mentioned that this recession is different due to the inflation that is going with it. Prices on everything will be going up more next year so I'd bet on girls trying to actually raise prices instead of lowering prices.

I got a trip there lined up and will have the pleasure of being there Fri and Sat. I got some questions that are kind of specific and my general ones have been answered by reading.

1 is hotel cascadas worth it? Fairly cheap and right there LOL what's better? I hear you have to pay a fee to bring a girl up? How much and would I have to do it every time. Street girls / outcalls count too?

2. Is there a better hotel than cascadas?

3. I was thinking Airbnb or Velario hotel. Do the club girls / street girls have preference to love hotel or Airbnb / Velario.

4. Any recommended massage parlors.

5. Best underrated small club not HK or Adelitas or Chicago.

6. I'm thinking of driving and parking there wherever safe ofc. Good idea bad idea? Thoughts?

7. Website for outcalls?

Help a monger out and I'll report back.

Thanks in advance and feel free to PM.

If you get your own overnight room, you do not have to pay to bring up any girls-- unless that's changed recently.


2. Is there a better hotel than cascadas? What is your plan? If you want to party in the Zona and bang street girls and HK chicks, no. If you want to do anything with outcall sessions like escorts and stuff like that, Hotel Ticuan is the best way to go.


3. I was thinking Airbnb or Velario hotel. Do the club girls / street girls have preference to love hotel or Airbnb / Velario.Club girls, in general, won't leave their club during their shifts unless you pay a massive fee. You can try and talk to them about doing something once their shift is over, in which case anything other than a rival club will be fine. You can try and talk a street girl into going to the Velario, but that's a hike from the alley, and I don't think you'll have any takers. Some Street girls will come to Cascadas if you pay them a bit extra, but not all will.


4. Any recommended massage parlors.No. They all suck in Tijuana. Or at the very least, they're not worth the money.


5. Best underrated small club not HK or Adelitas or Chicago.If you're asking this along with your other questions, IMO, you should not be thinking about anything other than those 3 in the Zona.


6. I'm thinking of driving and parking there wherever safe ofc. Good idea bad idea? Thoughts?There are parking lots all over in the Zona. If you're staying there for a few days, and if your car is a concern, I would seriously look into Hotel Ticuan and just Uber or take cabs to the Zona to party and do your thing. I don't do overnights in the Zona any more, and when I go down there, I park somewhere in Zona Rio, and take a Taxi or Uber downtown, and then come back to my car.

... and when I go down there, I park somewhere in Zona Rio, and ...Really, really? I will drive if I've going onwards to somewhere else. Crossing in with a car takes so friggin' long (I will cross on my bike, because I just zoom to the head of the line like all the locals). Crossing back, even with Sentri, can take infinitely long. Time is precious (and I hate waiting at customs with a bunch of idling cars) -- if I were going for a day, I think I would just park in a lot on the San Ysidro side and walk across.

In general, I'm already there doing something and fit a few sessions into my schedule. Unless you've got Sentri or GE, there's 0 reason to drive across to just hang out in the Zona for a night. It's a major liability.

Crossing in with a car takes so friggin' longI drive in about once a week, and the only delay I ever see is during the evening rush hour. At 1:00 PM on a weekday, there is never any delay, unless the customs officers want a closer look at what's in my SUV.

The last time I was pulled into secondary, I was hauling three 60-inch TVs. I had to pay 500 pesos import duty and was delayed by about 15-20 minutes.

If your car has nothing but personal effects, even if they do pull you in to secondary inspection, you will be on your way in two minutes.

If you're thinking of crossing back on Sunday, forget it unless you're doing it in the evening, and probably in Otay. Non-SENTRI vehicle lanes are backed up for hours on Sundays. If you cross back in the early mornings, like 3 am or so, there won't be too much of a line. But if all you care about is the Zona Norte, walk across and use taxi / Uber.

With the VIP card if you want to stay in a hotel in the Zona, there's no better deal than HK. If you get your own overnight room, you do not have to pay to bring up any girls-- unless that's changed recently.

What is your plan? If you want to party in the Zona and bang street girls and HK chicks, no. If you want to do anything with outcall sessions like escorts and stuff like that, Hotel Ticuan is the best way to go.

You can try and talk to them about doing something once their shift is over, in which case anything other than a rival club will be fine. You can try and talk a street girl into going to the Velario, but that's a hike from the alley, and I don't think you'll have any takers. Some Street girls will come to Cascadas if you pay them a bit extra, but not all will.


No. They all suck in Tijuana. Or at the very least, they're not worth the money.

If you're asking this along with your other questions, IMO, you should not be thinking about anything other than those 3 in the Zona.

There are parking lots all over in the Zona. If you're staying there for a few days, and if your car is a concern, I would seriously look into Hotel Ticuan and just Uber or take cabs to the Zona to party and do your thing. I don't do overnights in the Zona any more, and when I go down there, I park somewhere in Zona Rio, and take a Taxi or Uber downtown, and then come back to my car.

Google: cumintj, mexicolindobar, musastj, greysgirls, or https://goodgirls.catalog.to/s/goodgirls/goodgirls/cmh.I plan on being there 2 nights. VIP card any different than a regular patron visit?

My plan is to party in the zona hang HK Chicago Adelitas girls and street girls. Where are street girls willing to go if not cascadas or nearby airbnb?

I love massages so that's why I ask.

Ok I should stick to the 3. But are there others worth a look?

My main concern is I have a flight Sunday PM. I am wondering if it's easier to park in mx and drive with anticipation or leave it in the us and find a way back. This is my main concern.

And, FWIW, I've never heard any of my friends complaining about "infinitely long" waits when they're crossing northbound with SENTRI, unless you consider 15 minutes to be infinite.On Fridays I heard it's very long. Any day after work is usually some sort of wait. People need to remember most rentals can't go to mexixo and your suposed to have Mexican car insurance which is expensive, its certainly more money per day than just parking in San diego.

If you go between black Friday and Christmas it is 3 times worse the line. Most street girls will go to Cascadas even if it costs you 5 to 7 more. Probably worth it because the street girls don't have sheets usually just bed cover that everyone bangs on. Outcall girls won't go to cascades in most cases. Maybe you want a hotel on revukucion if that's important to you. Then you can't take street girls to your room though. Keep in mind street girls version of sex in most cases is nothing like a USA sex worker or even a HK sex worker. The street girl version is gona be a lot of "don't touch this part, don't lick that part, if my clothes come off it's more money, and most importantly they do not laugh, act like they are having fun, or tell you they love you and want to be your friend. They generally zone out mentally and its a poor experience if you compare I'm to a slurry Hong Kong or Chicago girl. The only street girls I've done in years are girls I've known for a while and who are nice girls and if I say Hello, to the 30 times in a row eventually I'll take them to the hotel. Sometimes I just pay them some money for talking to me because they are nice girls. Many times I don't have sex because you don't want my body touching that bed and there's usually no shower although I remember the Ibiza rooms having a shower. I need a shower after touching these beds.

2. Is there a better hotel than cascadas?

3. I was thinking Airbnb or Velario hotel. Do the club girls / street girls have preference to love hotel or Airbnb / Velario.

4. Any recommended massage parlors.

5. Best underrated small club not HK or Adelitas or Chicago.

6. I'm thinking of driving and parking there wherever safe ofc. Good idea bad idea? Thoughts?

7. Website for outcalls?

Help a monger out and I'll report back.

Thanks in advance and feel free to PM.1) Everyone will have their own favorites but Cascadas is very widely considered the "best" hotel in Zona Norte with HK being widely considered the "best" club. You'd of course have to make your own assessment once you get there based on your own preferences. If you're staying at the hotel, no, there's no fee to bring a girl up unless you keep the girl for over an hour, which I think is when the "bar fines" start kicking in. If you're not staying at the hotel I believe you'd only have to pay $30 per 30 minutes to rent a short-term room, though they might also force you to buy some drinks for that time (not sure on that). But if you're staying at the hotel, you wouldn't have to worry about any fees unless you keep the girl over an hour.

I can't answer the street girls / outcalls question directly as I have no experience with that but in my experience (most recently just a couple of weeks ago when I was in Tijuana) I've been able to bring outside girls from other clubs up to my room at Cascadas with no issues and I don't think there are any time limits on those girls (since they don't work at HK).

2) Again it's all based on preference and what you're looking for, but Cascadas is very widely considered the "best" hotel. Seems to be the most modern and well-run with the most "amenities". Very far from a 4 or 5 star hotel room but the rooms are perfectly fine, relatively cheap, and serve their purpose. Depending on how long you stay, it might be worth buying the $60 VIP card, which gets you 20% off the hotel rate on weekends, a free drink every day, and a few other discounts.

3) Never stayed at an airbnb in Tijuana or Velario so can't speak to this but for a first-timer would recommend staying at Cascadas as it's more in the center of the action than the other options. Kind of like if you're a Vegas first-timer it's probably best to stay on the Strip (I. E. , in the center of the action) your first time, then venture out to other spots on future visits as you gain experience and become more familiar with the area.

4) No experience with this so can't comment.

5) As a first-timer would focus primarily on those 3 (see my Vegas Strip analogy above). Opinions on the other smaller clubs might widely vary. Tropical, which is affiliated with HK (and right across the street from HK), might be the next best club, though I don't know that it's necessarily considered a "small" club. I like Hotel Korea (which is also affiliated with HK) mainly for its cheap beers. Have never picked up any chicas there though there are some available. La Malquerida is also a fun club a lot of times on weekends.

6) Would not recommend driving in, especially as a first timer. Would recommend parking your car at one of the nearby trolley stations (where parking is free), take a $2. 50 trip on the trolley down to the San Ysidro stop, and walk across on foot. There are also lots right at the border where you can park, but those are going to be more expensive. IMO, too much shit to worry about taking your car into another country.

7) No experience with this so can't comment.

6. I'm thinking of driving and parking there wherever safe ofc. Good idea bad idea? Thoughts?If you drive in, and avoid the afternoon rush hour, there will be no southbound wait at the border. And it's anybody's guess whether crossing northbound is quicker on foot or by car.

If you drive in, be sure to have Mexican car insurance. Your American insurance is not valid in Mexico, and the legal consequences for driving without insurance are far more dire than they are here. And always park in lots with attendants.

Most of the mongers on this board walk in. Those who drive usually do so because they need their car for more than short trips between the border, the hotel, and the zona.

I speak the language so I'm not worried about that. I plan on leaving Sunday but super early bc flight would be in the PM. What do you mean by non sentri.

I Plan on staying there overnight so idk if walking with luggage is the best idea?Travelers in the SENTRI program can go through car lanes that allow them to get through the border much faster than non-Sentri people. Since you don't know what non-Sentri is, you're pretty much certainly non-Sentri so you'd have to go through the non-Sentri car lanes, which can take up to a few hours from what I hear (I've never crossed by car to or from Mexico so I wouldn't know).

I'd recommend walking across. Wait times are highly variable but don't think you'd have to spend more than an hour or two in the pedestrian line. At least for me, it's been several years since I've had to wait more than 90 minutes in the pedestrian line, even when the lines appeared to be super long.

I personally always give myself about a 6 hour lead time prior to my flight out of San Diego to leave HK and I've ever had issues getting to the airport on time. Usually I'm able to get to the airport way before the flight departs (2 or 3 hours before) and I pretty much always take the trolley / bus to the airport. Since you have a car, you'd probably get to the airport even faster.

I've never had any issues taking luggage to Cascadas. Cascadas does perform a light search of your luggage when you get there. Don't know if the other hotels do this.

Yes my main concern is entering MX and leaving the us with a Sunday PM flight. WHat is the best way the most effective way?.You have some options, you can Fly into Tijuana's Airport and get an Airport Taxi to HK. Don't be shy about asking them to take you there, and don't take any bullshit about them telling you there's a better place. On the way back, take one of the Taxis that park outside of HK to the Airport and tip them well. Those guys pay to park outside of HK for fares.

If you're flying into San Diego, it's the same thing. Uber or figure out the train setup to get to the land crossing at San Ysidro. Once you cross there's going to be a huge line of Taxis, and have them drop you off at Hong Kong. Then when you want to leave, have them drop you off at PED East (I don't think Ped West is Open), and give yourself plenty of time to cross. Plan on standing in line for about 2 hours. You can use the Border Patrols website to give yourself an idea of what the wait time is going to be like, but Sunday is going to be rough, especially if you're trying to make a PM flight out of San Diego.


Hey I plan on walking around and exploring. Initially I wanted to do HK Chicago Adelitas and staying at cascadas but I want th option of taking a street girl or outcall to my room. If I can't do that at cascadas where do I go / stay?

Where do street girls go generally when you pick them up? Same for outcalls is it an issue at cascadas?Do your walking around and exploring during the day. That's the best piece of advice I can give you. Once it gets dark, the area around HK is well lit, and everything else is not, and it gets very, very sketchy.

Escorts won't come to the Zona, so you're kind of out of luck there. Street girls all stand in front of whatever hotel they use. If you have an overnight room at Cascadas, you can usually negotiate and get them to come up to your room if you tip them extra. Some will come up, some won't. Cascadas is one of the few (if not only) hotel that checks IDs of the girls, so if she refuses to come up to Cascadas, that's usually a red flag IMO. Most of the girls standing around Cascadas / HK should not have an issue. There's only 2 hotels I like using with Street Girls. Cascadas where I usually have a room, or the Ibiza which is at the other end of the alley next to the Malquerida. Both of these places are owned by HK Group and I've never had an issue with the cleanliness of the rooms. There's been other shit-hole hotels where I've gone and I feel like I need to take a shower immediately when I set foot in them. It always messes with my experience, so I try and stay out of them. You're going to pay the room cost wherever you go, so you may as well try to negotiate with the girl that she gets the full cost of the room if she just comes to your overnight room at Cascadas. Some will take it, some will negotiate for more, and some just won't.

Outcalls you need to take to a love hotel, or a hotel outside of the Zona which is girl friendly. Hotel Ticuan is the best, but there are small hotels around downtown that will work. When you talk to the agencies to set up a meeting, they'll tell you where they can send the girls and where they can't.



Also, would like to add I appreciate all of you for responding and tending to my questions even if they were annoying / repetitive. Truly, I appreciate it even if it's not the best most accurate info, at least you're trying to give af. Tia

If you're staying at Cascadas, the combination of the room discount, not paying a Short Time room fee, and the free drink every day, the card pays for itself on the first trip. There's been reports here that the HK girls tend to stay a bit longer if you have an Overnight Room. There's a bunch of disagreement as to why that is, but make sure to mention to the girls in the club that you have your own overnight room when you're negotiating rates, time and services.

The last several times I've been, they have a guy on the side right there at the check-in area who will make a VIP card for you on the spot if you don't have one. So not necessary to walk into HK to buy a VIP card first. I've never had any issues whatsoever getting the reduced rate buying a VIP card on the spot seconds before checking into my room. Actually just did this on my last trip a few weeks ago since my previous card was no longer good.

I did my first time Tijuana visit a couple a weeks ago. Took a taxi from boarder to HK & back. In doing some research I think I may want to visit Chicago Club next time. Is it safe for this old fat gringo to walk from HK to CC and back to HK / Alititas alone after dark? I know it is about 150 feet around the corner, I saw it from the taxi on the way to the boarder.

The last several times I've been, they have a guy on the side right there at the check-in area who will make a VIP card for you on the spot if you don't have one. So not necessary to walk into HK to buy a VIP card first. I've never had any issues whatsoever getting the reduced rate buying a VIP card on the spot seconds before checking into my room. Actually just did this on my last trip a few weeks ago since my previous card was no longer good.Oh cool. That's changed. I've gotten crap before for it, so I always walked into HK to get the card made and then booked the room.

Book the room now to make sure it's reserved.

When you arrive at HK, go to front desk and buy the VIP card, $60 good for 3 months. Even if you pay with cash, HK will want to copy your real IDs, so only the card holder and not just everyone could use the card for discounts and free drinks as happened before. I hate that shit. Potentially if someone is pissed off at you, he can send sicarios to your front door.

When you Check in Cascada, wait until they confirm your room, then spring the VIP card for the discount. That way you can be sure to get your room plus discount without any bullshit. Pay day by day or reception may forget you prepaid.

But I found Cascada has been straight with its reservations and discounts. On busy holidays, reception may say all rooms booked, but guys who know reception and management can always get rooms at the last minute. Just tip reception and security guys a few bucks to make friends as they work 10-hour day for $15 and appreciate tips.

I may want to visit Chicago Club next time. Is it safe for this old fat gringo to walk from HK to CC and back to HK / Alititas alone after dark?From one old fat gringo to another, the stretch between the alley (HK, Adelitas) it's about as safe as in front of HK. But I wouldn't go past Chicago.

I did my first time Tijuana visit a couple a weeks ago. Took a taxi from boarder to HK & back. In doing some research I think I may want to visit Chicago Club next time. Is it safe for this old fat gringo to walk from HK to CC and back to HK / Alititas alone after dark? I know it is about 150 feet around the corner, I saw it from the taxi on the way to the boarder.Is it safe? Nothing is safe in Tijuana. If you already walk around in front of Hong Kong, just walk to that corner. There's chciago waiters who stand there and walk clients to the bar, do across the street. They then get the drink for you. Be careful crossing the street due to cars. Don't talk to anyone at all not even for 1 second. It's hard to get into trouble if you can discipline yourself to not stop moving your feet and don't talk to anyone. Comming back, I've done it 300 times. But nobody can guarantee you anything. That corner is where I met a guy, while my head was gushing blood, who told me "don't go telling the policia about the dudes who rolled you because I'll tell them and they will return for you". That corner, across the street is also major drug dealers, major cop bust gringo conrer, also trans woman now work there. Basically it's dangerous. Chicago Club has a limo ask one fo the guys to walk you back to Hong Kong for 5 bucks. They will be happy. Or ask a waiter in Chicago. A lot of someone's perception of, or definition of safe, really depends on how much risk they find acceptable. Like someone with kids and pets and a good career and a nice house should take more caution than others.

Tropical and Adalitas etc. For some reason I do feel a bit more "exposed" by going over to Chicago compared to just walking between Adalitas, Tropical and HK. But it's just a feeling and not based on any experiences or what others have said.

If you want to play it Real safe. Just go between Chavellas and HK (inside the HK bar) and for a nice break you can go over to Azuls restaraunt by outside the front door. Then walking up the stairs into the Cascadas hotel to the third floor and walk all the way across to the back of the hotel (while inside the hotel) down a flight of stairs and into Azuls restaurant on the 2nd floor that looks over the notorious alley where all the street hookers (Paraditas) and drug dealers hang out doing their thing.

How one area is safer than the other, but cannot be really categorized as a safe area by itself. IMO, the path between the 3 clubs, plus the alley is probably the safest in the Zona Norte. Then followed by Alley. On the other hand, men have been murdered in these two locations. If you want to be really safe, don't wander around until you see a lot of military patrol. Cops don't really mean shit in the Zona Norte. I take that back. Cops do wear body armor so they work well as a shield.

Just tip reception and security guys a few bucks to make friends as they work 10-hour day for $15 and appreciate tips.Perhaps others' experience has been different but I've never had an issue with them trying to screw me on the pricing. They have the prices clearly stated both on the website and on a sheet they have posted up at the check-in desk and I've never had a problem with them applying the discount. They want you to buy the VIP card and get the discount. If it's an issue, folks can always just book the room online and calculate what the price should be with the discount beforehand. The calculations are pretty straightforward since Cascadas doesn't charge taxes or other hidden fees on top like USA Hotels do.

With that said, there is one game they do play. If you haven't reserved ahead of time and they expect to be busy that night sometimes they'll tell you the standard (I. E. , cheapest) rooms aren't available (even if they are) so they can try and upsell you to a more expensive room. Had them try that on me once but that was several years ago. You get around that easy by reserving online in advance. Never had any problems with reservation or pricing going that route. Even reserving just a day or two in advance usually works well, though would actually advise reserving (much) earlier if you already know you're going to be down there.

Anyone know where you can buy menthol cigarettes? I had to buy some mexican cigarettes and cannot for the life of me find the menthols. I was afraid to ask for 'cigarettes verde' as they might think I was trying to buy marijuana (which why would you buy it in Tijuana when its legal in California).

Also found out it may be helpful to carry your own lube around if you're doing anything that requires it as some girls might not have it and its cheaper to buy it at a farmacia than at the front desk of any hotels.

At hotel Caesars you can bring streetgirls as long as they do not 'look' like street girls. Tell them to buy a face mask and wear gears / sweater or something like an escort would and you should be fine. If she is a busted looking street girl you might have problems and of course you always have to pay them a little more for walking to your own hotel. But you can also negotiate longer stays and more services with your favorite street girls.

I've brought escorts to the Valerio. Valerio is the absolute end of the puta zone as of 10/08. If you go to the end of the block and turn right you'll see street vendors selling clothing and such.

As far as going back to the US: I always walk.

As you are walking over the big bridge you'll make a left down a pathway towards the pedestrian route. If the line is at this point, your wait time should be roughly an hour. For reference as of 10/06 there should be an HK poster for the halloween costume contest on 10/26. The wait feels like longer than an hour though (this was around noon on a Thursday). I have a feeling the wait time would be longer on a Sunday. I also once went through very early in the morning (like 7 or 8 am) and there was almost no line comparatively speaking. I think if you go through at dawn or even a little before it there will be almost no line. On my next trip I will plan around this to get an early flight out.

Follow up to my last post, if I take a taxi from the border to Chicago Club, are there taxis out front waiting (like in front of HK) to pick up fares to take back the border, when I am ready to go, say at 9 pm?

YounGun3393
10-08-22, 20:40
If you drive in, and avoid the afternoon rush hour, there will be no southbound wait at the border. And it's anybody's guess whether crossing northbound is quicker on foot or by car.

If you drive in, be sure to have Mexican car insurance. Your American insurance is not valid in Mexico, and the legal consequences for driving without insurance are far more dire than they are here. And always park in lots with attendants.

Most of the mongers on this board walk in. Those who drive usually do so because they need their car for more than short trips between the border, the hotel, and the zona.So this is the game plan. Drive to Tijuana Friday am. Will be in SD since Monday for work but won't be free till Friday. I plan on renting a car to maneuver around SD. My flight is going to be Sunday PM. I plan on staying in MX till Sunday am. Flight is around 6 pm so what should I do to avoid missing flight. Hearing from others it's best to park and walk over since you don't have to deal with crossing via car and also not having Mexican car Insurance could avoid a headache.

Just need to know what to do when I park in us and walk over. And then the game plan when I leave back to us. Thanks on advance.

So I get a message from a loca I spent time with months ago. She needs money of course. I do not send money. She offers to come see me in Tijuana. I find a flight for under $100. The airport fees are more than the ticket. Comes into Tijuana Friday late and leaves Sunday. She will do this for 5000 pesos. Her body is banging and all natural. He face is pretty I would say 7 out of 10 in face is accurate. Body brings her up though. She can take a while to get warmed into the mood but once she is going she is a top notch loca. She has a magic pussy.

We stay at a hotel in Tijuana Friday night. Nothing special just some where low cost to spend the night. Saturday morning we head to Rosarito. I have booked the Oceania Rosarito Inn. Nice place directly on the beach. Multiple large clubs 1 block away. Pools and jacuzzi by the beach. $200 a night total cost. ATV Rentals. Horse rides on beach. We explore some Saturday. Afternoon rolls around and I park for good after getting mucho beer and tequila. I get pretty barracho. We have sex for almost 2 hours because when I am this drunk I can still get it on but finishing takes a while. She nuts twice before I get mine. May also be we had sex the night before and the morning of.

Hit a few of the clubs. They were happening until 4 AM. Got a couple connections from locals. Still not sure the status of these connections. Sugar, papers or legit friends. My loca was sleeping. Went back to the room and woke her up to get ready to leave. We have another session after showering.

On checkout I find out about a medical pass. This gets me to front of border for $35. Funny how many complain about the walking version of the front of the boarder pass. This is about as official as it gets. Drop her off at airport. Spend some time in the Zona watching football and spending money there. Then hit the border with the medical pass. Gets me into a special lane that bypasses the other lines. Gets right to the front of the border. Less than 30 min total wait.

I would just walk back to in front of HK and jump in a taxi. Or what I do is goto the HK desk in front of HK and ask for a HK ride back to the border. Doesn't matter if you came from Chicago. We all spend time in HK and support the place so you can take the taxi back to the border even if you were in another bar.

Heard that the trannies like to hang around Hotel Nelson and the Mens Premier Club, so if you are looking for anal, that's probably your place to hang out. Remember to not drop the soap, heard some trannies can get aggressive when horny! Just watched a video about the death of an aggressive dude called "Booty Bob", the worst booty bandit in the Alabama state prison. Three inmates caught him alone and cut his head (and other parts) off! LOL.

I used that taxi several times over the years. As well as the two blue and white taxis across the street. It is family base and I can always count on them as well. And, as mentioned, CC has it's own SUV that sits in front of the club.

Also, you can take the HK free shuttle service and tip the driver. That's what I do (back and forth).

That was one of the downfalls of CC they got into some fight with the yellow taxis and if you got a yellow taxi at the border they wouldn't take you to CC. It was discussed a lot back on some of the older boards. Seems like taxis still avoid staying in front of CC. Like others have said they have a big limo to take you back or just walk to the corner and get a different taxi.

On a side note when I was down las week I noticed that AB has their own taxi now if you want to call it that. It's an old 70's looking black van. It looks like they got it out of the junkyard and just put some small decals on it. Doesn't even have windows, I didn't look inside when I walked by but wasn't impressed especially if the other clubs have limos. I was thinking that AB might be strapped for cash since they are trying to put up that new tower for the hotel.

Because cell signal near border is unreliable and then you gota spot and jump in the car when traffic is jam packed, meanwhile as a white male I stick out. It's never good to be standing still in Tijuana. But if your going to do it, cross the street. Where the new large pharmacy is, walk about 700 feet west of that. Where people are waiting for taxis. But I don't recommend recommend stress easier to go to revolucion st.

You are best served going to Cascadas as streetgirls are directly outside the street.

Streetgirls are attached to their specific hotel they standby and may charge them a travel fee.

Streetgirls May be required a photo document to enter Hotel.

Streetgirls will not (walk a few blocks let alone a few steps) travel due to personal safety.

Streetgirls favorite lubricant, condoms and accoutrements are in their hotel lockers.

Streetgirls Padrote (pimp / boyfriend / girlfriend) will not allow it.

Streetgirls wear heels (I usually have them change to tennis shoes).

Streetgirls lose time travelling (time=money).

Streetgirls are not use to walking that is why they are not Streetwalkers!

Paraditas aka streetgirls=definition is one who parks her ass on the wall.

P.S. Rizo de Oro has a pool. Just drop by at the reception and ask them to show you the rooms and penthouse and let us know what you think.

Travv
10-12-22, 04:47
Many of the Rizo rooms have windows which HK does not anymore, so if you like fresh air, you have the option of asking for a room with a window at Rizo. Also, Rizo is carpeted so you don't hear tacones walking down the hall and in general is much quieter, so if you want to sleep without noise from girls banging their high heels all night or club music blaring, Rizo is your best option. HK's big advantage is that it is central. Rizo is usually a few bucks cheaper so the choice is yours. Try both and see what you prefer.

I wouldn't say most in HK are game but you can definitely find some, just got to ask around. About half are going to give you some type of weird look and laugh it off but if you get lucky some will do it at no extra charge. That's kind of rare though. If she's down to do it for a "convenience" fee I can't imagine it costing you more than 120-140. I have asked girls for BBBJ and have been quoted 120 in the past. If money isn't an issue, I would still cap it at 150, but that's just me. The most I have ever paid a girl for extra services is 100+10 for tip.

If you have a hard time finding a girl for anal in HK go to Adelitas. I have found several girls there, especially the Colombians, that will do it at no extra charge. For whatever reason, it’s less of a taboo thing for them. Will only cost you 80-100 max. They can usually be found sitting at the bar in the evenings. You can also tell a waiter that youre specifically looking for Colombian girls and theyll point you in the right direction although he will then start hounding you to buy the girl a drink.

Most importantly, never ask a girl for extra services within an ear shot of other girls or any other employees. Some might be embarrassed to agree to certain things in front of others.

Went up with a chica to the motel above bar Valentina yesterday. This will be the last time I ever go here. Ever. The knock came at 10 fucking minutes. How do I know that? Because 5 minutes later as we were putting our clothes back on, the chica's phone alarm went off, and the chicas always set it at 15 minutes. Dickhead cleanup boy comes running for tip as I left. I told him he knocked at 10 minutes so no tip. He proceeds to argue that it was 15 minutes. I was so fucking fed up with the Zona Norte scams that I didn't bother to respond.

How fucking hard is it to deliver an honest service or product as advertised? How fucking hard is it to give me that 5 minutes I paid for? The entire fucking motel is empty. There is not a fucking soul here. I put up with the toe sized cockroaches here without complaint, I put up with the shit still sitting in the toilet here without complaint. I put up with the zero towels. I put up with the zero soap. I put up with dirty beds. But thieving 5 minutes from me is the absolute last straw.

And they have the fucking nerve of charging same amount as Cascadas. No wonder Bar Valentina went down the shit pipe.

Made my return to San diego and Tijuana. Lots of street girls as many as I've ever seen Saturday. I don't talk to them used to find it fun. I broke a important rule, and stopped walking to look at the phone near the arch on way to Hong Kong. But like 40 feet from revolution. Of course a cop rolls up, so I start moving without looking at their faces, but I hear the "hey you" "stop". . kept my head down and paced it as faced as I could speed walking to Hong Kong. I believe he didn't stop me because being on the move he would have to turn the car around and he was on the sidewall to begin with. It would taken him 6 minutes to catch me down the street. Didn't go to Hong Kong actually went to adelitas. Adelitas had a hot chick perfect 10 from Columbia. I've seen maybe 20 10's in Tijuana in 7 yrs. Her drink didn't involve anything great but her personality was good. I guess if my intent was to pay for sex last night I would of paid the 100. Almost all the other girls in adelitas were kinda chubby. Not gona say obese but you know, their whole body wouldn't be proportional. Hotel prices on revolucion for weekend are same as San diego for now anyway. Which means alot.

Not sure what the issue is, but ISG has been slow for the past few days Other sites seem to be fine.

A couple questions:

1) USD or pesos? Usually I go with the local currency but everything here suggests transactions and propinas are paid in USD.

2) I'm around tomorrow, if anyone is around HK or Chicago, PM me I'd love to learn from Tijuana veterans!The generalization is to use USD in the clubs (easier and no benefit to using pesos) but pesos in the streets (a lot of the street girls still do a 10:1 conversion for some odd reason. Quote you 50 bucks but 500 pesos).

Some of us were there with the Captain Sunday, but I didn't see this post until after we got back. Hopefully we can meet up next time!

4 sessions in 12 hours. I'm drained. Too much fun had, how can I go back to the real world?

10-18-22, 11:36
Sunday us 4 piled into my car heading down to Tijuana, arrived before 1. One bro used to go down with me every weekend, but moved away and left the Tijuana scene for 5 years, had just moved back in So Cal. One bro could not escape out of the house since before CoVid. One bro has a couple bar GFs for bar dates. It was fun to have old friends together for a celebration of our regained freedom and self determination in the pursuit of fun and pleasure. Celebrated we did, big time.

Since the bros have been away a few years, the first order of the celebration was a quick walk through the alley and HK to check out talents, then head out to lunch. Ran into a wingman in HK with a beer in his hand. He decided to join us for lunch. Since we had a whole day ahead of us, we decided to go to Tacos Loco on the Liberty Path, sitting out in the street under the palapas, 3 abodaba tacos for $1. 50, $2 beers. The path was empty, used to be crowded with tourists on weekends, but almost empty of tourists now. The cheap tacos had tender, not crispy meat, but were fresh and tasty. A wingman had stayed in Cascada and partied in HK the night before, was having a pretty bad hang over, could not eat his food, but he needed another beer to cure his hang over hehe. First time I heard of that cure.

Came over to Farmacia Piri to look for Dapoxetine or Priligy, allegedly the wonderful med that can delay the pops and prolong pleasure for over half hour. Used in combination with Sildenafil, a fun bro, with loads of GFs, had fantastic long, ecstatic sessions, recommended it highly. Piri had brand name Priligy, 695 pesos or $35 for 4 pills, about $9 each. I found online sources for $3. 25 or less a pill, so forget about Piri. My wingman would just have to write me a big script to treat the brain's smashing depression, at the same time the canon's quick trigering.

All 3 wingmen have been going to Tijuana for years, but only at night, never in the day time, never walked outside La Zona Norte. Had to show them Ave Revolucion with dozens tourist traps selling junk trinkets. The crowd on Revo on a Sunday afternoon was not as busy as in years past. Stopped in hotel Ceasar and the restaurant to check for future wining, dining sexy dates and escorts. Hotels Rio Rita and La Quinta are across the street from Ceasar, good venues for sessions with escorts, food, sight seeing, all pretty close to La Zona with an easy walk.

Walked back to Hong Kong, sat drinking beers, watching hot strippers on stage and dancers on bars. Hooked up with a wingman just flew in from out of state. The bros were having fun with exciting discussions of all things. The night before, one took a HK girl to his room in Cascada without a condom, had to pay $5 for a GoodYear at reception. Damn greedy HK. The bros swapped some of the thinnest, allegedly most sensitive condoms on the market. We all needed more beers to cure our new hangover hehe.

Lots of girls hit on us for fichas and arribas, mostly the chunky type. We just tipped and sent them away, saving our virginity for the best talents about to show up after 6. Frieda, the young nerdy girl with glasses was working, looking like a novice nun, just in case some guys have fantasies in their nun schools. Spotted Estefanie from Guadalajara moving in the club. She's one f the sweetest girls in bed. A bro said she looked exactly like Arnold's ex wife, and he was right. Too bad Arnold had to fuck his old, ugly house keeper, sired a son and ruined his marriage with a pretty and classy woman, not to mention the shame he caused for his grown children. Other guys even ruined their whole lives, careers and relationships with their hunger for sex, when they could have everything they ever wanted, however kinky, with hot, sexy young girls like Estefanie in Tijuana, without putting a dent in their bank accounts. Damn fools, these guys.

Ashley AKA Alesha was stripping, tall, lanky, with beautiful, almost perfect body, unblemished light skin, natural boob, tiny pink nipples, plus a nice, gentle personality. She looked so hot on stage. Invited her for a drink. We all cramped into the booth. She moved from Ensenada to Tijuana for the HK job, gave me her tel with promise to vacation in Cancun or Ensenada. She wanted $100 a session with no kissing; I decided to let her go, hoping to find better talents later, but talents did not get better. In retrospect, I should have taken Ashley. Will find her next week.

Went to Adelita and Chicago but did not find any good prospects. Walked back to the alley. A number of familiar street girls started working in the afternoon, Melanie, Anahi, Veronica, Maricela, Wendy Vampire, Fanny ect with a group of chubbies in front of hotel Ibiza. A bro decided to take blonde, pale Tiffany with her perfect, natural conical boobs into hotel Mini. She looked hot, all dolled up like a doll, but he said she was just laying there, well, like a doll hehe. She can be fun and playful if you kid around and get to know her.

I finally found spinnner Yamilet of Chiapas, took her to hotel Caretta. This little girl just loves sex, spread her legs wide, squeezed me hard, pulled me in for the deepest penetration. I was ramming her hard in long strokes. She was bucking her crotch, milking me at every stroke, hissing, grunting, squeezing me in ecstacy. Had a long, energetic session with her, exhausted at the end. It's rare to find a girl who loves sex so much, actively engages in bed and shows lots of sexy expressions.

Went back to Chicago after 8. Fernando gave us 2 4 1 beers, $3 for 2 Heinekens, very good deal. The place had a dozen girls with 10 guys, very light. A few hot strippers were on stage. A bro found a pretty young spinner, very cute 18, all natural with no make up, new in Chicago. She was drinking a ficha beer but looked detached, said she disliked Chicago and the job. He did not feel her up or ask about her hotel rate, just let her go. Some slick guy could easily romance this innocent girl and make her a bar GF.

Went back in HK to drink and recoup. A bro took another HK girl to bed right after plastic doll Tiffany, came down smiling, said the Sildenafil in my car glove box helped. 9 PM. He was having a huge hunger and kept talking about Mr. Pampas Brazil BBQ, but it closes at 10. Found Churrascaris do Brasil closes at 11, a better deal. Took a $7 UBER ride a long way to the nice, huge Hippodromo shopping mall. Waitress informed us, closed in 30 minutes at 10, just like Mr. Pampas. Damn unreliable web sites. The bro was hungry, had to have meat, meat, meat. We went to the salad bar for side dishes, including the delish steak tartare, then all sizzling hot, delicious cuts of meats were brought to our table. We ate a lot in half hour, $20 AYCE dinner with $2 beers, a very good deal. The hungry bro overate, had stomach problems. He pretty much collapsed on the ride back to La Zona. Young guys should learn to restrain from overtaxing their physical limits.

The other bro came back, claimed he bagged 4 girls with his usual long sessions in hotel Rizzo. Have to find out how and with whom he did it with.

Border traffic was light late at night. Had an uneventful drive back after midnight. The bros were squeezing each other before letting go to head home to each own's situation. Had a fun, exciting, quick vacation packed with hot sex, delish spicy food and fun with a few close friends, all looking to repeat soon.

The 5 wingmen all avoided the free Tequila shots at the door, cheap $8 a bottle, with bitter taste and strong Anejo cactus aroma. We went in drinking beers, watching strippers. The manager brought over a bottle of Don Julio 70, offering free shots. The cubic bottle of this fine Tequila sells for $50 in store and $150 in strip clubs. The wingmen hesitated but I urged them to try this good Tequila, each had a shot, knocking down 4-ozs of this slightly sweet, very flavorful but smooth and delicious Tequila. It tasted so good going down our throats. We all got a slight buzz with it.

The 5 free shots costed Chicago's manager about 1/3 of his bottle, $50 value in strip clubs. The bros all liked the delicious taste of that fine liquor, may soon be addicted. That was a very nice treat by Chicago's management. I tipped the manager generously for his treat. The bros may want to ask Chicago for this special treat of Mexican goodness.

After you have preliminary approval, you get the final interview at any airport port of entry when you return to the US. You just tell the CBP you want the final GE interview and they direct you to a separate line. It took about 10 minutes. I don't know if you can do it at a land crossing.

Been meaning to look into a Global Entry pass and the next available appointment isn't until September 2023 SMHI did my global entry in 3 weeks. What you have to do, is do it online, don't pay extra company or extra fast service. Just normal. Then. You need to be within driving distance of a Interview place. You don't need to fly. So, the day before when you feel like going, you will take the day off work, and spend a few hrs looking at your cell constantly every minute till a cancelled appointment opens up. Each time you make the appointment, say you cut it down from 1 year to 6 months then, then to 4 weeks, the. 3 days, then the next day. I did mine at LAX office 1 mile east of the airport free parking took ten minutes. They must do 400 appointments a day in that office. People cancel.

Thank you for your advise.There's no real good options for parking overnight. The streets on usa side border filled with broken glass, many cats stolen driven into Tijuana. . A parked carat the trolley station needs to be void of anything to steal in it. If they see you put anything in the trunk you could get your windows popped. If you do 2 overnights you may not get a ticket. But I don't know how much the tickets are. You could get towed too that's $400. You could if real cheap, park in point loma san Diego take bus to trolley. For most people that's not worth the money savings. The trolleys a real pain in the ass. I just got back to San Diego, took trolley from old Town, within seconds a guy is sharpening his knives next to me, I'm concerned he's gona fall and stab me. A minute later he slices his own hand up bleeding. 3 of his hood friends get on, these were twitching street dudes. If one of them pulls knife on me or the tourist padre fans going to the game, nobody could do anything about it. This was the blue line. Best to not take blue line till imperial Ave when you have to. So yeah overall parking became a expensive pain maybe 5 years ago when they doubled all the prices.

If you arrive outside of busy times, like Friday after work, you should be able to find free street parking at a few spots in San Ysidro.

Beyer Rd along the rail road track, North of Jack In Box, has free street parking behind the hotel. No street cleaning signs are seen, but cars are occasionally broken into. Just hide any valuables in the trunk.

Border Village Rd West of the KFC has street parkings but street cleaning is on something like Thursday morning. Tow operators kick back to San Diego parking officers and love to bleed you dry if cleaning restrictions are violated. Same goes for shopping malls. They will call tow trucks on suspicious vehicles.

Parking lot at the Burger King on S why Blvd has a sign $10 a day, but that lot is always full.

Find street parking in residential areas near trolley stops. Leave your car and walk or UBER to the trolley.

Thanks everyone on the advice for Global Entry. I'm definitely going to finally apply this week.

As far as parking on the street, whenever I have to do that I like parking over by the residential area by Ross on the far west end of outlets, close to Big 5 and the Ulta beauty store. Across the street from there they have a lot of available street parking in a decent looking neighborhood alongside a park. It's about a 15-20 minute walk to the border. If you take an Uber, it's only a 5 minute ride at most. I suppose you could also take a short bus ride for 2.50. I usually walk to get my step count up, have never had a problem no matter the time of day.

One or two of the members suggested parking along the trolly route but can you park overnight in these lots? I've read this forum going a few months back. Thank you for your advise.For several years the free trolley parking has always worked best for me. In theory, you're only allowed to park at the trolley lots free for 24 hours but the enforcement on that is extremely lax. I've consistently parked in those lots for 36-48 hours, and as long as 3 days on one occasion, with no issues. I don't think San Diego transit even cares if people are parked there for a bit longer. As long as it's not something like a week or whatever. Though I personally don't like to try my luck over 48-60 hours. Something I've noticed is San Diego transit has gotten WAY more lax over the past couple of years on enforcing fare trolleys (can't even remember the last time a transit cop checked my fare whereas before a couple years ago my fare would get checked on most trolley trips) so don't see why they would all of a sudden start enforcing the 24 hour parking rule when they're not even firmly enforcing trolley fares anymore.

So the trolley parking would be something to consider. One thing I've done for cases where I've stayed in Tijuana for around 3 days or more is park at the trolley lot before going into Tijuana, cross the border back into San Diego after a couple days, move my car to a new space, then go back to Tijuana for the remainder of my trip. I've always parked at the Palomar St. Station and never had any issues there.

I'm visiting Tijuana in a few weeks time and will be staying during the weekend at Cascadas. Last thing I want is to get surprised so I was wondering these things.

Do I need a power converter for cascadas? For my iPhone.

I see some restaurants recommended but any good reliable ones? Language not a problem, I speak. Is street food reliable and I assume I should stick to bottled water LOL.

Does cascadas provide towels and shampoo or should I bring all that? How's the wifi and breakfast / food at restaurante azul.

Should I expect any fees or extra BS when checking in to cascadas? I reserved online and plan on doing the VIP thing YOLO.

Do they take card for cascadas check in or just cash.

How are the ATMs? Should I just bring a Butt load of cash (always risky) or are atms generally reasonable with fees. I have bank of America.

Thanks I can't wait to have a blast and share my war stories.

Just spent about 3 hours in the clubs, mainly Hong Kong. I know it's fairly early still but there was hardly any good chicks anywhere. Tropical and Chicago were completely dead. Chicago had like less than 10 girls. Even Adelitas had better girls than them. Hong Kong seemed to have the B team in today. I left without even taking anybody upstairs. Like I said though, it's still early. Couldn't hang out late today, just got some food and now in Ready Lane. Line isn't too bad. Stopped at Farmacia Piri, 20 Maxifort Sildenafil pills for $18. Don’t know if that’s good or not, seemed fair to me but what do I know. I'll probably be back Sunday to see one of my regulars.

YounGun3393,

1. You don't need a converter for Cascadas, you'll be fine. In more recently renovated rooms, they even has usb wall outlets, from what I recall.

2. Read the forum on restaurant recommendations. Only place I've never been disappointed by is Caesar's (birthplace of the Caesars's salad, LOL), but when I'm in ZN I don't venture much for food. Montezuma's revenge is real, so if you haven't built-up an immune to the local water or germs, it's not a bad idea to stick to bottled water.

3. Cascadas does provide towels, and if you run out, look for staff on the floor or call the front desk. Towel boy will expect a tip, though (a buck or two). There is soap & shampoo, but it's typical hotel soap & shampoo, same as state side. Wifi is basic, don't expect to be able to stream anything off of it, though. Just basic web search. Azul is a-ok in my opinion, but nothing special. The convenience factor that it can be delivered to your room is the only plus.

4. No extras fees, but they require a $30 deposit for the mini bar, $50 deposit on the larger & fancier rooms. I've never had an issue getting it all back when checking out. After going through the metal detector & getting searched, tell them you want to buy a VIP card and that you have a reservation. Should be smooth sailing from there.

5. They do accept credit cards, along with cash.

6. I've personally never used the ATM, but other bros have used them without issues. Other bros have said that their card got skimmed and they got random charges overseas a few days later. If you do use the ATM, just keep an eye out on your account for fraudulent charges to report ASAP to get refunded and protected.

Best luck to you and have fun.

Thanks I can't wait to have a blast and share my war stories.1) Nah, power works the same in Mexico as it does in the USA. You don't need a special converter or anything like that as you would in Europe. I don't have iPhone, but at least for my Android the chargers, USB cords, plugs, etc. Have always worked perfectly fine in my rooms going back several years. All the rooms I've ever been in have at least one USB plug in addition to standard plugs.

On recent trips, my rooms have also had smart TVs which have allowed me to log on to YouTube with my account and watch various YouTube videos on the TV. But all the standard channels on their cable TV are Spanish with the exception of a couple of sports channels and one news channel I think. Also maybe the porn channels give you English too, I can't remember.

2) If you like tacos, the food widely considered to be the best within immediate walking distance is a taco stand that used to be right next to HK, but within recent months moved down Coahuila between Adelitas and the Chicago Club (Coahuila and Constitution on the Chicago Club side I believe). I think they moved due to some road construction near HK. Don't know if they'll be moving back. Excellent tacos there at real cheap prices.

Two more popular mainstream taco joints in Tijuana are Tacos El Frances and Taconanzo in Zona Rio. Excellent tacos there as well. I'm partial to the all-you-can-eat spots they have in Tijuana. There's a relatively new Korean BBQ all-you-can-eat spot called 260 Grados that I'd highly recommend. Two extremely popular all-you-can-eat Brazilian steakhouses: Churrasco do Brasil and Mr. Pampas. All these spots (and a bunch of other great restaurants) are located in Zona Rio. Would also very highly recommend the gourmet hot dogs at Telefónica Gastro Park. All are great quality and cheap compared to what you'd find in the USA.

3) Cascadas provides a couple of towels and small hotel-sized shampoo bottles. When I stayed at Cascadas last month, my room was actually already stocked with 5-6 towels, which was a first. You'll likely need more than 2 towels for the girls that come up to your room. If your room isn't already stocked with towels, my advice would be to have one of the hotel attendants that are walking around bring you 5-6 (or however many extra you think you might need for the entire weekend) as soon as you get to your room. (They'll expect a $1/$2 tip.) That will save you from having to request extra towels multiple times during your trip. While doing that, also ask for extra toilet paper rolls if you think you'll need it.

The wi-fi is generally fine but can be spotty / inconsistent. I had zero issues with the wi-fi on my most recent trip last month but had several issues with it going in and out the two previous trips before that. Annoying but I get complimentary 4 G internet service in Mexico through my phone plan (T-Mobile) so am still able to connect that way.

I don't go to that Azul restaurant so can't comment on that. I've been to the affiliated Senda Norte restaurant across the street and thought it was good.

4) Assuming you got the standard room, there is a $30 deposit that you have to pay in cash (you get refunded upon checkout when you give them the paper receipt they give you. Make sure you don't lose that receipt or you won't get a refund). Also, once you get to your room, make absolutely sure there are 10 drinks in your refrigerator. Notify the hotel desk ASAP if you don't have 10 drinks in the fridge. If you don't, they will with hold part or all of your deposit upon checkout. I've personally never had any kind of issues getting my deposit fully refunded but have heard a few stories of difficulties here.

5) Cascadas takes credit for the room. I usually pay with credit, though they will ask for your ID and will make a photocopy of it. As stated above, you do have to pay the $30 refundable deposit in cash. Also for the VIP. On previous trips I was told I had to pay for the VIP card with cash but on my most recent trip last month they let me pay with my credit card (jthey ust added it to my hotel fee).

6) I've never used an ATM in Tijuana so can't comment. I personally don't trust any of them. I bring cash over from the States and. If I happen to need more cash (which I usually don't) I go back across the border to use a USA ATM rather than fooling with anything in Tijuana. I'm sure there are some fine, trustworth ATMs in Tijuana, I just don't have any interest in fooling with them LOL.

I've only used the ATM's near HK one time in a pinch. The fees ended up being $12 total. It was on my credit union debit card so maybe other cards won't charge you as much. Didn't end up with any other suspicious charges in my case. The girl I ended up using the ATM for gave me a PSE session so I wouldn't have gave a damn what the fee would've been that day LOL.

Just a couple to add to the already good info.

If you plan to use a credit card make sure your photo ID has a signature. They require your signature match the ID. You need to have ID with a signature on it.

The soap and stuff has gotten better. I typically bring my own personal cleaning stuff if I plan to stay overnight.

I do think the zona norte atms have a large fee. I typically bring cash and have never had an issue with large amounts of cash. I also am pretty good at not making sure I do not appear to have large amounts of cash. Some guys like to flaunt it.

Saw this video about taking girls on trips. It is about Thailand but I think it has some useful info.

I have found girls will travel for a day to some where for as little as 5000 pesos. Another girl I know will pretty much go anywhere fun for even less if she likes the place and I pay her daycare costs. I do have to deal with gift requests and once I denied buying a $100 gift all the sudden she could not go. There are some bartering involved. These are girls who live in Mexico.

Each girl comes with upsides and downsides. Anyways here is the video. I think my problem now is I do not have enough options. I need to put these girls into some competition for my money. Not too rough just keep them from getting too greedy.
