5An amazing experience
Mario was very friendly, and was an amazing tour guide . He was very patient, and answered our questions with enthusiasm. The tour itself was a very special experience for me and my family. We got to taste Mexican culture and history, and it was a memorable experience.

5Tijuana city tour
I did a lot of research before booking the Tijuana city tour and our experience went above and beyond what I anticipated. Mario has curated a wonderful and varied tour which squeezes in so much. He picked us up from our apartment and drove us to all the sites, including the cultural museum, downtown, local markets and infamous trump wall. We also had great food and experiences at a local taco place and craft beer bar. Mario is a professional and extremely knowledgeable tour guide. If you are reading this, i would definitely recommend his tour.
5Best way to spend my Thanksgiving break!
The tour was amazing! I have been to more than 20 countries, so I have my fair share of experiences with tours. However, this one was the best of all. Mario was the kindest person ever, he is very attentive and fun. You can always trust his recommendations. In other countries, I often had the sense of being trapped in a tour that went too fast or too slow. Mario was amazing at meeting us where we were and getting the energies high up again. It truly was like hanging out with a friend or family member.
5So much fun in just one day!
We had so much fun in just one day. I really love how Mario tells us stories and histories about the places we went to. And it was also so convenient to leave from san diego and he would just drive us to tijuana and take care of all the things. All you have to do is show up. The selection of places we went to was really interesting.The food that we had was also really really good. He just knows the place really well and it would have been so different if I went there by myself. I would really recommend the tour. I like the tour guide as well. He was really Friendly and knowledgeable.
5Wonderful experience
We started the trip with a visit to the museum which was a good introduction to the history of Mexico. Then we went for a Mexican food experience and a short walking tour of Avenida Revolution. Mario was an excellent guide and the experience was great. Thanks a lot!
