HOSTELS IN BAJA, MEXICO...
|
Tijuana
As of this writing there are no hostels in downtown Tijuana. There are cheap
hotels in 'Las Playas', the beach area of Tijuana that is nearly empty of
tourists, and more 'authentic Mexico', with local family restaurants, cafes,
bars and coffee houses on the beach or with an ocean view. Contact 'Run
of the World' for more info on location and transportation. |

Transport
to Mexico
Here is info for bus transport from downtown San Diego to Tijuana,
and from Tijuana to many cities in Baja and mainland Mexico.
|
| Mexico
Border |
You
can take the 'Blue'
trolley or bus #932
to the border, or for a more scenic tour, take #901 over the Coronado Bridge,
along the beach, then transfer at the stop to the trolley or #932! |
| downtown
Tijuana |
It's
within walking distance after you cross the border, walk 100m, go right
through the shopping plaza, then take the bridge over the canal. Look for
the large silver arch at the start of downtown.
You can also catch a local bus for 5 1/2 pesos*(=50cents) from just past
the border taxis and to the right. Listen & look for buses to 'centro'. |
| Tijuana
bus station |
The
best way is to take the 'Greyhound'
from downtown San Diego. Currently the price is $11-.
There are about 10 buses a day. the trip takes about 1 hour. There is also
a bus station just a 5 minute walk past the border to the right of the taxi
stands. |
| Tijuana
airport |
A
taxi from the border is about $10-20-, negotiate with the driver before
you get in! |
| Rosarito |
From
downtown Tijuana take a 'communal' taxi from 3rd & Madeira Street, (next
to 'Revolucion')
for a couple dollars, or the bus station near the border, or the 'Mexicoach'
from Revolucion Ave. |
| Ensenada |
From
Tijuana- once you cross the border walk pass the taxis, go right and there
is a bus station. Currenlty 'A,B,C' and 'Estrellas' buslines go to Ensenada
for about 80pesos/$7+ dollars. |
| San
Felipe |
From
Tijuana take the bus to Mexicali, then down the Baja Gulf coast to San Felipe.
From San Diego take the bus to Calexico, cross the border to Mexicali, then
the bus to San Felipe. |
| Mainland |
Buses
from Tijuana go almost anywhere in Mexico. There are 3 bus stations in Tijuana,
one near the border, one near downtown, and one near the airport that can
take you all the way to Guadalajara. |
