Tijuana Camino Real Car Rental

Rent a car at Hotel Camino Real in Tijuana and explore the pulse of the border city and its surroundings. The hotel is located in the modern Zona Río, about 5 km from the San Ysidro border crossing to San Diego. By car you can reach Ensenada's wineries in 1.5 hours south along Baja California's Wine Route.

Zona Río is Tijuana's most prosperous business and restaurant district with Avenida Paseo de los Héroes as the main artery. From here it's 10 minutes to Tijuana's cultural center CECUT and 15 minutes to the San Ysidro border crossing, one of the world's busiest. Always check if your rental car is allowed to drive into the USA - most Mexican rental companies do not permit it without special authorization.

Avoid the border crossing during rush hour 7-9 and 16-19. Wine Route in Valle de Guadalupe, 90 km south, is a perfect day trip destination. Can I drive the rental car from Tijuana into the USA?

Normally no - Mexican rental companies rarely allow driving into the USA. Ask specifically when booking if this is important. How far is it to Ensenada from Hotel Camino Real?

Ensenada is about 110 km south along Highway 1, approximately 1.5 hours drive with beautiful ocean views. Is it safe to drive in Tijuana? Zona Río and tourist areas are generally safe during the day.

Avoid unfamiliar neighborhoods and do not drive alone at night.
