    I wish that this video was a lot more informative. It would have been nice to know how much money you spent, how much you paid to get into the water park, how much Uber costs there, how much the food is, and the name of the beach you went to. My friend and I are looking to visit Tijuana this summer for the first time, and was hoping to find out more specifics.

      Hi, I'm a local. Currently, 1USD = 18MXN. Prices will be listed in MXN. The place they went to eat in the beginning is kinda expensive, not gourmet expensive, but definitely more than average. The chilaquiles there are $90 if I remember correctly, in other places they're $65 usually. The other places are like $50 for a very decent meal. The water park costs $150. Well, as in the US it depends on your distance and time, but the minimum fare is $35, that should give you an idea. The beach itself does not have a name AFAIK, the place is just called "the pier" (el malecón).

    How long did it take to cross by foot? Is it easier to drive or to walk across the border?

    • @JackandGabExplore
      @JackandGabExplore  5 років тому +2

      It doesn't take long to walk across! Going into Mexico it's probably 15-30 minutes depending on how busy it is. Coming back is anywhere between 15 minutes and an hour has been our typical experience.
      Driving in doesn't take long at all. You wind your way through the border area, then a picture of your car is taken. They might flag you for secondary inspection, but most of the time you breeze right through. Coming back into the US you'll need to time that a bit better. Wait times are anywhere between 30 minutes and 3 hours. You can look up the wait times here: apps.cbp.gov/bwt/mobile.asp?action=n&pn=2504

    I believe that your only begotten Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross at Calvary and died for my sins, and I am now willing to turn from my sin.
    You said in the bible that if we confess the Lord our God and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, we shall be saved.
    Right now I confess Jesus as my Lord. With my heart, I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead. This very moment I accept Jesus Christ as my own personal Savior and according to His Word, right now I am saved. Amen.
