Head out from central San Diego, riding through the southernmost stretch of California to the border crossing with Mexico. Arrive in vibrant, bustling Tijuana after just 30 minutes on the road and soak up the palpable sense of energy in this eclectic and friendly border city—the largest on the Baja Peninsula.

Cruise through the Zona Centro on the Avenida Revolucion, where visitors crowd into popular shops and eateries. Circle historic roundabouts as your guide shares information about Tijuana’s past, and spot the remains of the once-glamorous Toreo de Tijuana. Hop out of the bus to test your bargaining skills at shops peddling handcrafted goods and typical Mexican wares.

Explore the central, modern business district of the Zona Río, with its fashionable shops and restaurants, and check out statues of major historic figures from Abraham Lincoln to Cuauhtémoc the Aztec King. You also have an opportunity to get a delicious taste of authentic Mexican street food as you prepare your own tacos, adding flavourful meat, chicken, or veggies and plenty of toppings like fresh salsa, creamy guacamole, coriander, and onion before your return ride across the border.
