Our tour lady was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about the history and area. We loved going to lunch and shopping. The only negative I have and its really not a big one is, I thought that we were going to get to go inside historical buildings. We just rode by them. I would definetly tell others to take this tour. Oh one more thing it would of been nice to have more shopping time.

This was a great little trip to Tijuana, would have liked a little longer to shop, but overall very good. Driver was superb. US immigration on return took forever. Would recommend this trip for anyone wishing to see a little of Mexico and its warm and friendly people.

Our guide was extremely informative, and described the city in great detail. Safety was a big concern for me, but I felt completely secure with our guide and we only left the vehicle in an area it was safe to do so (Ave. Revolucion).

Main bus didn't turn up however the lady who picked us from the hotel was only to happy to take us to Mexico. With a small group we enjoyed ourselves and she gave us a very good commentary and information about the area

Fantastic tour. Driver excellent-he told us lots of interesting facts- didn't waffle too much! Also knew which border crossing to use meaning it only took 15mins to re-enter USA. We had heard stories of people taking hours to cross on other tours. Perfect length of tour, had time to shop and sample some Mexican food.
Went with husband and 12, 14 and 16 year old girls who loved it too.

This trip was really easy and convenient, a lot of fun, and a great cultural experience. My only regret is that I didn't take the longer tour and spend an entire day in Tijuana. Thank you to Viator and to Five Star Tours!

Trip was well organized, although Tijuana was a little confronting when you first get off the bus. Overall well worth the trip, lunch at Ceasars was amazing highly recommend eating there if you get time. Also recommend you take advice from your tour guide on where to shop. Highly recommend the tour well worth the money, although don't expect to get back before 3pm, getting through boader control takes time.

Tijuana was great. Felt very safe. The company let you know where to shop where you can buy the genuine stuff and not get ripped off. Bus driver was very informative and had great stories to tell. As long as you do what they recommend you will have a great time in Tijuana. Kristina H. Australia

It was a fantastic half day trip. Our driver Bob was excellent. Tijuana is a nice place to visit. People are very friendly. Alcohol VERY CHEAP!! This is a Must visit destination, well worth the amount you pay through Viator.

This trip is a must. The driver gave us all the safety information needed. Tijuana was lovely and so were the people. I bought some lovely treasures.

Awesome experienced specifically the very friendly and helpful Atala (the van operator); mind you she was so informative and able to assist the three seniors in my group. The tour went well and we did enjoy to the max! At the top of that we had excellent and yummy mexican lunch with margarita plus tips on where to shops. We had a smooth exit to the American boarder. Strongly recommend this tour to try it out and we will again for sure in the near future! Merci Viator from Canada.
