How to get to us:
Directions to Los Algodones:
Take Interstate 8 to exit 166 (California State Rd 186). Head South toward Los Algodones. You may park in the Quechan parking lot. As of December 2013, the rate is $6 per passenger vehicles. Other options include parking off-road about 1 mile North of the border (stay away from the No parking signs). Yet another option, some people drive into Mexico. But make sure you have insurance coverage before crossing.
Beware of street hawkers and pushy "guides."
They are harness. But they get paid a commission right off the top of your bill for taking you anywhere. And yes, you guessed it. Their wages and commissions are paid by overcharging you for goods and services.
Directions from the Border to our East location:
The address: Callejon Alamo #157 - An alleyway running parallel to the Alamo canal in a Northeast to Southwest direction. No cars allowed.
Once you go across the turnstile, you walk around the back of the Mexican Customs offices. Use the crosswalk and cross the street right as you walk out of the Customs yard and veer right (Southwest). The street turns South shortly thereafter before the end of the block. At your first intersection, make a left (East). Walk East until the block ends and turn right (South) into the pedestrian alleyway. Continue South and look for our office on the left (East side) about 3/4 of the way down the block.
