Your Guides
San Diego locals who've been crossing the border since 2003.
Most Baja travel advice comes from tourists who visited once. We live 20 minutes from the border and cross regularly — for tacos, wine, beach days, and family visits. Between Scott's logistics obsession and Jenice's deep knowledge of Mexican food and culture, we cover angles no single travel writer can.
