Bus options to Tijuana?
Hola: for some reason, I am unable to find online up to date information on bus travel from Mulege to Tijuana. Mostly, I'm interested in ticket cost,
possibility of making reservations, approximate travel time, and if there are varying levels of travel: economy, business, upscale with amenities,
etc. Can anyone point me to a website that works or post information you may have? Mil Gracias

Hi, Len
Have you been down to the bus station?
They can give you the approximate times and costs and may possibly know a website. I rode once a number of years ago and it was a very good
experience. Cold, so take a blanket. Some buses have wifi now, too.
I'll ask my friend who is coming into town this afternoon via Loreto. She's in-transit now, but seems to be up on the bus schedule so may have
something to add here.

"... varying levels of travel: economy, business, upscale with amenities, etc" ??
No. The bus lines that service the peninsula are pretty much the same. One bus could be cleaner (toilet, windows, floor) than another. The driver
puts air conditioning on early AM and doesn't turn it off until late, so it gets cold. If your bus is packed it gets a little uncomfortable. My last
trip last year from Loreto to TJ was very enjoyable. No more than 12 people were on the bus, and it was much cleaner than the trip down.
Also, you can buy your ticket in advance and choose your seat. Mulege to TJ is a relatively short trip regardless.

Reading the following post on a bus ride from Mulege to Tijuana is optional for sure, but it might provide something useful. Good luck and keep us
posted on the trip.
