Crossing the Border


Recommended Posts

Hi! I'm going down to TJ for an unfill on Saturday and

am going to try and take the trolley down and back. My only question

is: once I've gotten my unfill and want to get back to the border, how

to I find a taxi? Can I just go out to the main street and track one

down? Could I just walk over to the Lucerna and see if they will call me a taxi?

Thanks!

Jennifer, You could try getting the Lucerna's cab that parks in the hotel parking lot. They are guarenteed safe and cost a little bit more. Or you can just grab one. You just have to not let them rip you off. Also be sure to allow plenty of time for the trolley. I was an hour late for my appointment because the trolley took an hour. Marilyn

Hi Jennifer,

I always just go out front to catch a taxi but I look for "Libre" taxi. They are orange and white. Mrs. Ortiz and the office staff told me they are the best. She even walked me down to the corner to flag one down on one occassion. They come from all over. If you miss one, another will be along any second. They usually charge about $3.00 because they use the meter. The others charge $5.00 flat. The one at the Lucerna charged us $5.00 to go to the office from the hotel. When I realized it was right across the street I felt really duped. We could have walked there! You live, you learn!
