General Reports

[QUOTE=GNRPorche;2203773]I've watched hundreds of hours of videos of guys walking around Thailand. Tijuana, is not Thailand. You need to hide your passport so when you get robbed, you can quickly hand over your phone and wallet without hesitation, one second hesitation could be the end of your life. Nothing should be in the wallet that is needed other then some of your money to send the robbers home happy. And don't walk around filming anything in the streets. If robbing people was legal in Chicago, with the crime they already have, that's what Tijuana is like. Getting robbed, is essentially just your donation to the lower income folks. Don't get mad, don't fight back, don't argue, be the victim happily. You can't win. IF you fight back, you won't be safe on the streets any longer. Just spread the money out and have a hidden pocket sewn into your pants for the passport. After a while, the chaos on the streets with everyone trying to "get" you becomes a lot of fun, like a adventure, maybe more fun than the woman.[/QUOTE]Give. It. A. Fucking. Rest!! Don't get me started. Just take your ultra-paranoid fever dreams and peddle them on a different board.

[QUOTE=MongerHunger;2203829]So you are willing to pay a HK bar girl $ ($100) per pop?[/QUOTE]Sorry I wasn't clear. Actually, I am hoping when I go to Tijuana for the first time, all together I could monger for around $ on each successful pick-up (so girl, room, any other costs, etc.). I can absolutely go over $ (all inclusive) per pick-up, but I'm just trying to see if I can get something decent at that level. Thoughts?

[QUOTE=MongerHunger;2203831]What a way to scare the shit out of somebody on their first experience in Tijuana. I think that your advice was a little extreme.[/QUOTE]Agree! Try to scare the newbies away. LOL.

There's no need to go over $100 for a BG. The BG and room combined should be under $100. If not, move on. You will see plenty of other fish in that sea.

In HK, you might choose to spend money on drinks, tips, fichas, lap dances, etc. But the girl and room should cost you $97.

[QUOTE=Taipan68;2203740]After spending years in Asia and the Middle East, I'm finally going to Tijuana for the first time this coming September. I'll probably be there for three or four days total. To lead me on my journey, I've started to RTFF. Tijuana has a LOT of information to sort through, but I'm trying to learn as much as I can before I go. In addition to, "don't be a asshole and always treat the ladies nicely", what three things (positive or negative) would you recommend I do or not do? Money is not an issue but I'd like to keep my mongering to around $ per pop so I can maximize the variety.[/QUOTE]If it's your first time in Tijuana and you want to keep it simple just rent a room at Cascadas and roam the block. You'll find that most of the action is at HK, then Adelita, Chicago and Tropical. The other bars aren't that great. If I were you I'd skip the weekend. It's just so fucking crowded with dudes it automatically dampens my spirits. Wednesdays and Thursdays are the best nights to go out. Mondays and Tuesdays Cascadas offers 80% off rooms for VIP members. I would highly advise AGAINST talking to any male on the street that approaches you with the exception of the Chicago Club guys that hang out in front of La Gloria. Anybody else is just going to want to scam you. Don't give money to anyone on the street. Use Uber, not taxis if you can. Learn the prices of drinks at the bars so the meseros don't get away with scamming you. Tip $1 per round, no more. Don't walk around with a lot of cash because the cops are a real problem. Don't walk around with an expensive neck chain, if you must keep it tucked in. If you choose to sit down with a chica try to choose a booth and insist that the chica sit against the wall. Don't leave your phone on the table, especially if the place is packed and there's a lot of chaos around. If any type of scene erupts the first thing meseros do is try to grab phones that aren't being watched.

There's another poster on this board who seems to think that you'll automatically get mugged on the street. The chances of you getting robbed by anyone other than the cops is very, very low. You will get scammed for a dollar here and there by meseros but that's just the cost of being a rookie.

Thoughts?[/QUOTE]If you already have a room at Cascadas / Rizo de Oro / Ibiza there is no additional charge to bring up a chica from HK / Tropical / Chavelas / La Malquerida and many street girls as well. You'll have no problem getting most of the top tier HK girls for $80 Sun-Thurs. Chicas from other bars $50-$70. Tropical has some pretty decent talent that tops out at $80. I would budget for $60-$80 per session.

Well heeded advise right there! Listen to this man.

[QUOTE=Phordphan;2204030]My very best piece of advice, besides RTFF, is to absolutely ignore the postings of the two main disseminators of misinformation and general crap on this board. One thinks he's a Star Wars hero and Tijuana expert but never leaves HK, and the other, with whom you now have direct experience, posts nothing but wild, imaginary fever dreams.[/QUOTE]

As it was stated, there are many venues out there where you can get more bang for your buck essentially getting more bang for your fuck. Think about getting some pesos. Do your research and divide your time wisely. You may be overwhelmed with the big selection of chicas available all over La Zona but take your time, get a feel for the girl and choose the winner. Most of all have fun and have a blast.

To be clearer, I'm headed to Tijuana for business, but the company is putting me in a hotel in San Diego and taking me over during the day time (actually just mornings to early afternoon). The company has told me to wear a "nice" long sleeve or "decent" collared shirt and jeans. No suits (like I regularly do everyday) and no jewelry, not even a watch. I should finish all meetings and business daily by 2:00 pm according to the projected schedule. In theory, I could head out on my own then. Definitely, late afternoons and evenings I'm on my own. Without a doubt I'll need to pay for a hotel room for each session. Searching the forum specifically for Tijuana hotel info isn't as easy as I would like it to be. Any advice on hotels, for "short"-term use.

Any advice on hotels, for "short"-term use.[/QUOTE]Well, if you intend on renting a short-term room for each session, then it would all depend on where your chica of choice works. Bar chicas can only go to the hotel that is affiliated with the bar that they work at, or the hotel of a sister bar. Hong Kong, Tropical, Las Chavelas and La Malquerida all have the same owner, so a chica working at any of those bars is allowed to go to any hotel affiliated with those bars, which are Cascadas, Rizo de Oro and Ibiza. Adelita and La Valentina have the same owner. Chicago and La Gloria. A chica that works at Adelita is not allowed to go to Cascadas. Street girls prefer to go to the hotel that they're posted in front of but many will go to Cascadas or other hotels with an additional financial incentive. I'm not sure exactly how much hotels charge for 30 minute sessions but expect to pay $12-$18. The shithole hotels that many street girls work out of will charge much less.

Arrived in San Ysidro at around 12:30, and stopped at the gas station to re-fuel my bike for the trip home. After fueling, I rode around shopping for the best exchange rate and as I weighed which place would be the best place to conveniently stop at, I briefly decided that I would take the median Buy price that I saw, which was 18.56 something. I saw better, but for time sake, I decided to take this price. Exchanged my pesos and went to park at 1 of 2 of the only places that allows you to park a motorcycle for $10. Does anyone know the best place to park a motorcycle?

Took the El Chaparral Crossing for the first time, because I got tired of the maze and the long lines with the other entrance and I was pleasantly greeted by a practically empty queue. The catch this fine day though was that there was only 1 customs agent and he was making people see him before giving them the Entry Form and then telling them to get back in line to fill it out. Come to find out, he was doing this, because they were understaffed. Once he had another customs agent man another desk, he came out and dropped a whole stack of Entry Forms on the table and the feeding frenzy commenced as the queue had a few more people enter as we all waited for the forms. Filled out my form, no questions, and off I was.

Walked to La Zona and decided to take a walk around the block in a way in which I would never walk the same street twice (due to recent crime issues that I've read about in the forums. Thank you all who contribute to our knowledge.) Based on the quality of the street girls and I wanted to kind of relax for a little bit, I decided on HK. Took the HK entrance from the alley and got the frisk and off I went. (Side note: Can't take eye drops or anything like it into HK. I guess management is afraid that you are going to put something in a chica's drink.).

As I walked in, two girls were just finishing a soap show. Kept moving towards the lower level and got a table with booths separated by a circle table with the two aisles on either side. The club had a decent amount of girls, at least more than guys. Ordered a drink and looked around and immediately had a mesero call a young tan skin brown haired chica over who was hanging out by the stairs. Forgot her name. She comes over, and the mesero asks if I want to buy her a drink and I do. I believe she said that she was from Mexico City. The whole time she's rubbing my little man and doing a pretty good job at it, so I start a combination of interviewing her and negotiating. She starts at $100, but she quickly goes to $80 and doesn't budge from there. So, I dismiss her. Not even 2 minutes after she leaves another fairly darker skin chica sits on my lap and starts trying to seduce me. The mesero promptly comes over and asks if I want to buy her a drink and I do. So we get to talking and I think she said she was from either Tijuana or Mexico City, don't remember, but I start interviewing and negotiating with her and she does not budge on $80. So, I dismiss her.

At this point, I don't really see anything worth my time, so I continue sitting there watching the big screen over the bar and a mesero comes up to me and asks how come I am not interested in anyone? So, I tell him that what the girls are asking is way too much, and that's when he proceeds to tell me that HK girls are the best in the world and that $80 is a good price given the quality. Mind you, I never mentioned to him that I was quoted $80. So, I think as others have suspected that these meseros are getting a cut of whatever the girls make. Nevertheless, I let him finish his BS spill and I took a drink of my drink went to the restroom. I took one more look to make sure I wasn't missing anything and left.

Decided to walk to Adelita's, but they had some kind of construction going on, and pushed everything to the back rooms. There were about 6 girls and 6 guys when I walked in. I walked to the back to make sure I didn't miss anything, then I left. Sad experience. After that, I was kind of disappointed with La Zona and was ready to leave. Weighing my options I decided to try Chicago for the first time. I get to the entrance and get the pat down and off I go. Big place, but the same vibe as Adleita's. This place has a few girls, I mean like 3-4. I'm directed to a table by a mesero who gets my drink order. So now, I'm sitting there and a tall chica with glasses catches my eye, but I can't get a good view of her because it was dark and because of the position she was sitting in. The mesero brings me a drink and and after about 5 minutes of sitting there the mesero brings over a girl and asks if I want to buy her a lady drink. She was cute, so I said sure. She sat down. Forgot her name, but she is from Tijuana, 21-22 really cute face. We vibe right away, so we started the negotiation and she was dead set on $80 as well. By this point, I was starting to believe that everyone in La Zona's going rate was $80, so I bit. We go the room, do the deed and I tip her 200 pesos. She was pretty passionate. The only thing is her vagina was a little fishy. If you're into that cool, if not, like me, then you probably want to steer away from this one. YMMV though, but this one offers a lite GFE if you vibe with her and can stand the smell.

Now I'm ready to go back to the border given that there's nothing else that interests me. However, as I'm walking back up the block a cute older SG with a mole drew me in with her charm, so I said what the hell. For everything we agreed upon 400 pesos. This one was a firecracker and offered lite GFE as well. I tipped her 200 pesos and started my walk back to the border. Surprisingly, there was no line at border.

I had a decent time given the day of the week I went.

Sad to see HK Chicas firm on $80. Can't say that experience is worth $80 + $17 for the room = $97.

Is Truvada for PrEP available in Mexico? If so how much would it be and where would one get it?

And as you said, I suspect there is some kickback schedule.

Personally, I will pay 80 for the right girl. But last time, I felt good declining those offers. I felt like I was doing my civic duty. LOL.

In the usa to sleep with a HOT girl you're looking at $300 minimum. So. $80 for a hot girl is still pretty damn good and it seems that's the norm for the area so plenty of options.

Also, can you get a discount if you negotiate in pesos? For example try to bargain with $70 in pesos. What would be the firm rate if you wanted to do this? Surely you can save some money this way.
