Posts: 2569Over the few years I was crossing back into the US and the customs agent asked what I was doing in Mexico. I simply answered tourism. But for some strange reason they did not like the answer. They then said multiple trips to Tijuana is not tourism and let me go.

Posts: 12May trip part 1.
First trip visiting Tijuana and first time mongering outside of the US. A bit wary of the journey I made contact with a forum member that agreed to show me around. I really have to thank this forum for helping me plan the trip, I probably wouldn't have taken otherwise given the limited information I've seen other places.
Anyway, coming down from Los Angeles I was struggling to find the cheapest means of arriving in hopes to maximize my budget orientation to chicas. I eventually settled on greyhound bus service where a trip to the border for 17-23 bucks. Worried about how long a trip would take and wanting to be on time for me to get there I scheduled a bus at 8 am. Naturally said bus didn't arrive until 10:30. Not sure if that was a particularly bad incident, but judging by the uncaring callous of the employees I think not. So crammed like sardines into the not as well kept as I hoped bus I went annoyed at my late departure time. This bus service did not directly take me to the border as there is a larger LA station downtown that I was dropped off at to await the second bus that would take me there (not to worry a single ticket vouches for you until your destination). After arriving at the station tired from lack of sleep to get up so early in the first place and with hunger setting in I searched for a meal. To my dismay there was only a convenience store esque venue. Not trusting my written schedule I dared not leave in search of food in fear of missing my bus. Thanks to the great stroke of luck of following directions poorly a bus arrives around 11:20 taking another earlier group to the border. I approached the bus driver checking all the tickets and was informed it was indeed not the bus for my ticket, but the old man takes pity on me and allows me to board regardless (so thank god for that! The rest of my trip was rather uneventful other than seeing the two super carriers docked in San Diego (never been there either until now). Upon arrival I pass an entire street lined with cash exchanges eventually passing a McDonald's and arriving at the entrance to Mexico.
Standing in the non-citizen line for entering Mexico I prepared my passport card and awaited to be processed. They asked why I was going to Mexico to which I answered touring, but was responded by another more aggressive line of questioning to my surprise as they demanded to know what hotel I was planning to stay at. I told them I hadn't determined that yet despite their persistence. I don't much hear complains about this so I have to ask the veterans here is "I am here to bang girls" a viable response to get these monkies off your back?

I have been getting great info from this forum; now my turn to share my experience.
First off getting to Tijuana. I took the 992 bus to American plaza (Braodway and Kettner stop) and then the blue trolley to the border.
2.25 for the bus, 2.50 for the train. 10 mins from the plane to the bus stop, 20 mins wait (bus was late), 10 mins to American plaza, few minutes to get the trolley ticket, 45 mins on the trolley.
About 90 mins overall to get to the border.
The actual border is to the left of the train (facing forward), I just followed the crowd.
There is a separate queue for Mexicans, I got in the foreigener queue. The lady on one of the desks let some gringos go without a stamp, they said they would come back later today or early tomorrow (short trip).
The got a burly old man, he did not say anything at all, made me fill a form and stamped my passport. Gave me a form to keep and return on my way back.
Called a uber (thanks to the advise on this forum), waited 5 mins for it. There was police for road crossing, lot of people, I did not feel unsafe at all.
Uber cost 14.75 pesos, dropped me at Hotel Cascadas. I went to the club first, got VIP card and then used that to get room (20% off).
The clerk at the desk duped me out of 200 pesos, I gave him correct amount but he said I gave him 200 short.
He showed me the stack of money again, but I think he dropped a note between the time I gave him the money and he showed it back to me.
He also changed the 30 USD deposit to 500 pesos ducking me 50 pesos, I asked him to write 30 USD on the receipt which he did.
So be careful when checking in hotel cascadas, the clerks are looking to make money.

Posts: 1283I need to learn more Spanish! LOL Or maybe I'll read the Art of the Deal. $50 seems low, in my experience. But granted, I did get to $60 once. It was on my last visit. And I truly think it was because I already invested 2 fichas, which helped meet her quota.
$50 sounds like a bargaining chip, but I would not advise someone to expect $50.

As far as Csscadas best to ask for a new room on an upper floor. Also if your stay involves a Mon. Tue. You will for sure want to go to HK and purchase the HK VIP card before check in. It will save you a whopping 80% off your rate for those days and 20% for the other days.

Going to be taking a 4 day vacation there in August. Any advice from any of you Tijuana regulars? I'm going to be staying at Cascada.
