Excellent job, Turiste Libre!…read more I especially liked Derrik's description of Tijuana as the "United Nations of Mexico." The diversity of the population in Tijuana was not something I was aware of until just a couple of years ago - in large part, thanks to his tour. Prior to that, when I visited Tijuana, I had feelings that were similar to the ones he described among his guests - the feeling of freedom - but I wasn't sure why I felt it, or what to make of it. After the tour with Turista Libre, my feelings about Tijuana evolved from "I feel so free there" to "I love that Tijuana is for everyone." It's exciting to be there and to think about the role that the city has played in the lives of so many who have sought better lives than the ones they left behind. At the same time, being there gives me a greater appreciation for the advantages and privileges I've had throughout my life as a citizen of the US.

Derrick was an amazing guide through my first trip to Tijuana in twenty years. His passion and…read morekindness for our sister city to the south made me want to visit again soon. We had a group of 19 for a beer and tacos tour. He came across the border to meet us and we walked back over as a group to his bus for our journey to begin. We got food and beer included in our tour that took us to the following places: Tacos ÁAron: Best Birria tacos I've ever eaten. Stewed beef, juicy and full of flavor with a nice kick! Kind service as well. Playami: Run by Border Psycho Brewing. Very kind and attentive staff that were willing to work with my malo Spanish. Great beer selection on tap and a cool indoor/outdoor area. There are also food and coffee options on site! Mexica Brewing: This small and charming brewery is owned and run by a pair of sisters that make great beer. Not far off Revolution Ave, it's worth the stop. Their honey porter is my favorite. Food options here too! Mamut Brewing: I had an amazing time chatting with one of the Brewers. All beers we tried were amazing. Their seasonal pumpkin was the best of that style I tried. Telefonica: Gastro food truck park. I had the best Pulpo (octopus) sandwich at Berracas Burger. It was not breaded and the taste was amazing. If you are nervous about visiting Tijuana, you have no reason to be with Derrick and Turista Libre. Their attention to detail and goal of really touring Mexico like a local was spot on. I will be booking this again for one of the many other adventures offered. For a great time, give this a try!

We booked private transportation from SD to Valle de Guadalupe for a wine weekend with 7 friends,…read moreit seriously couldn't have gone smoother. From the very beginning, communication was clear and quick. We were a little nervous about the border crossing logistics, but they made it simple with easy instructions and timing suggestions. Our driver picked us up right in San Diego, and the vehicle was clean, spacious, and super comfortable for our group. The best part was not having to think about driving all weekend. We were able to fully enjoy the wineries, relax, and move at our own pace. Our driver was punctual, professional, and flexible when we added an extra stop. He even had great recommendations along the way. Crossing back into San Diego was smooth, and having someone who knows the process made a huge difference. If you're planning a Valle de Guadalupe wine tour from San Diego and want something private, safe, and stress-free, this is 100% worth it. So much better than trying to coordinate Ubers or designate a driver. We'd absolutely book with them again.

From the initial planning to the final drop-off back in San Diego, communication was excellent. BTT helped us organize a smooth, stress-free itinerary, and our driver picked us up right on time in San Diego. The border crossing was handled efficiently, which was a huge relief when traveling with kids. The vehicle was clean, spacious, and comfortable for a longer trip, and our driver was professional, patient, and great with our family. We felt safe the entire weekend and never had to worry about logistics, parking, or driving unfamiliar roads. El Cielo was absolutely beautiful and a highlight of the trip peaceful, scenic, and well worth the drive. In Ensenada, we had plenty of flexibility to enjoy the city at our own pace, including food stops and time by the coast. Having a private driver made it easy to adjust plans as needed without stress. What really stood out was how personalized and reliable the service was. This wasn't just transportation, it felt like having a trusted local handling everything so we could focus on enjoying time together as a family. If you're planning a multi-day Baja trip from San Diego, especially with kids, I can't recommend BTT enough. Safe, professional, and absolutely worth it. We would book with them again without hesitation.

Then we transferred to the blue line to take us here. It was about a 25 minute trip. Once we arrived we quickly noticed that there's not much to do or see around there. There's a McDonalds and Jack in the Box as well as a shopping center. I wanted to explore a little more but my son wasn't interested in that day. There was a lot of hustle and bustle. But I didn't feel inherently unsafe or anything line that. Just stayed aware of my surroundings. I could see how this would provide a very convenient way to get back and forth in these 2 areas Someone asked me if I needed a taxi in TJ. But I declined of course. Once we arrived the Trolley stuck around did maybe 15 minutes or so. So we were able to walk out;, look around, then get right back on. Next time we go we'll bring our passports and my husband to check out the other side.

Everything ran smoothly and pickup and drop off from and to SD were very accurate. The owner Mario is very well informed and gives quick facts and tips throughout tour. Everything is planned out per the itinerary as said. Our only mistake was we did not have bfast so by the time lunch came around we were starving and lunch was family style servings. The only tip I would give is being snacks for the road and eat bfast before. Aside from that would def recommend and use Baja California Tours again. They also take pictures throughout the trip and send them to you afterwards! Thought that was very cool and thoughtful. Mario and Rene were both very welcoming and friendly. No complaints. I would book a private tour next time just as a personal preference. Looking forward to using them again for the same or diff tour!

We gave Ray a few wineries and places we wanted to visit then he filled in the holes with other amazing spots. There's no other way to visit Mexico and the wineries. Cheers !
