Monterrey

Dumb question: Are clubs operating yet? Getting impression they aren't but Google seems to think they're running normal hours.

Also booked some flights, but it's brought to my attention Viva's ground shuttle airport-city center is suspended. Not sure if anyone knows of alt shuttle services or be ready to pony up cab fare.

Thanks for the update, I am dying to get back to MTY. I am starting to look at CDMX later this year and hopefully back to Bangkok in November. I love SA, I have made several connections earlier this year. Which high-end service are you talking about? I usually use twitter and SA.

http://regioscorts.com/, here you go.

Just got back from MTY, slowly opening back up. Buses, hotels, Airbnb, restaurants all at 50-75% open. Masks are mandatory. Malls are starting to open back up. I do not think bars are open yet.

I am not sure about the day spas, not my the thing. Escort Agency are opening. Love motels open. Here is the the best one in MTY, Motel Love. Fair prices very clean and very nice. They have rooms with Hot Tubs and Pools, very cool. I use SA and the higher end Escort Sites, no issues, girls are going back to work.

One thing that I did make mistake, staying in Airbnb. I ended up losing out on a couple of meetings with girls, because the girls will not go to the apartment, also the agencies will not send the girls to apartments. I would not recommend unless you are meeting one girl that you already know, you will lose a lot of time trying to get new girls to go to an apartment. Just not worth the hassle ends up being more expensive, because you will have to go to short term hotel for the escorts.

I'm killing it in MTY, honestly I'm starting to like it better than Russia and Tijuana. Not to mention I can drive there, or take the bus and not have to deal with the airline industry. This is an added bonus, because I'm sick of there be. S.

Anyone know what is current situation as far as hotels, gringos riding into town via bus, and most importantly monger
scenes?

Pre-Covid19 exp from me.

Just thinking about that drive from Houston-Laredo, 7 LOOOOOONG hours on Hwy 59 you'll never get back. Each way.

Once in Laredo, I personally prefer parking and taking bus. If you choose to drive your own vehicle, you have to register it at the NLaredo CITEV station with proof of ownership, it would be a $460 USD, which is $400 USD cedit card deposit and about $60 USD netted to them. This is approval to drive your personal vehicle into the interior.

If you do drive, toll ways about $10 each way and clean pavement, I prefer drive at day time. There are toll free roads running along side the toll roads, but slow windy roads thru hills and towns, pavement not best condition, one time hit a pothole I had to replace a tire once I got back to Laredo. 85 Libre is the non-tolled route, 85D AutoPista is the tolled route.

I haven't had any dangerous experiences, but again I drive at day, and also I can't speak for other mongers

Just remember if you take the bus, I will add 1.5-3 hours to your trip each way. Buses are nice in Mexico, but makes for a long day.

Yeah on spirit July 3 to July 5 is only $180. I didn't even think about flying to cdmx. That's where my best playlist in Mexico is at for me. Now I'm thinking next time I can fly to San Diego for $100, I'll do that cross the border and fly from Tijuana airport to cdmx.

LOL. I was thinking about doing a similar thing. American has flights from DFW to San Diego for $51 in August round trip.

Viva Aerobus is $224 flying on Friday June 21 to Sunday June 23 and Friday July 3 to July 5. I think they are overselling the flights though so be aware you could get bumped and have to take the bus back.

I know what you mean though. The fares have been crazy. Fares to Mexico City were so expensive I was considered driving to Hidalgo and getting a flight out of Reynosa. There are no flights out of Nuevo Laredo at least for now.

For some fucked up reason though, fares to Cancun on American or Spirit or Sun Country are dirt cheap. Instead of driving to Hidalgo, I am going to fly to Cancun and then catch a flight to Mexico City. It is half the price of flying to CDMX direct. Hopefully, there will be no hurricanes or tropical storms.

I normally fly out on a Friday and come back on a Sunday. Normally I pay around $160 round trip. I have not seen any for weekend flights under $300. I'm not interested in flying during the week and using vacation time.

Taking the bus from Houston directly to Monterrey would be the best option if you can avoid catching the covid19 virus. I have been wondering about buses leaving out of Nuevo Laredo but it can feel very dangerous if you are in Nuevo Laredo and last time I took the bus from Nuevo Laredo to Monterrey I was shaken down by Cartel soldiers inside that actual bus station and everyone just let it happen. My friend Dramafree has more first hand knowledge of how risky it is but I have read many good reviews in google maps on the bus stations in Nuevo Laredo so I don't know what the situation is right now. I know that the buses in Nuevo Laredo are allot more comfortable and upscale that the ones here in Texas.

Which is what I am exactly trying to avoid. I read about someone driving to Monterrey to run into a road block by the local cartel. They shook him down for $600.00. For that price he would have better off flying. He was trying to save money but ended up paying more. The author did advise that he made this journey plenty probably 10 times before and nothing never happened. I also read about another traveling getting shook down at the bus station and the attendant just looked away as if he didn't see what was happening. I understand. He has to live there. Not good to get mixed up in all of that.

Plane tickets are not out of whack. I just booked a flight from Houston to Monterrey for $220 on viva aerobus. Look on skyscanner.com. You take the 10:30 PM flight and return on the 7:30 PM one.

I was always told driving to Monterrey is dangerous. Now with the plane ticket prices out of wack I'm considering driving to Monterrey or to Laredo then catching a bus to Monterrey. Anything I need to be concerned about?
