    Generally, you can find the border fence road and drive away from the border crossing until the line ends. This applies to most of the US - Mexico Border crossings and official ports of entry.

    To anyone concerned about their first trip back into the US through Mexicali, Calexico East is actually much less hectic/intimidating both into and out of Baja. I had been using West for many years until a friend suggested East and I wish I had known about it before. Another tip is if possible arrive before 7am and you'll be over in like 30 minutes as opposed to the always fun three plus hours...

      Great advice. We are filming new videos for both crossings next month as well.

    Thank you for the info we were super lost there. We tried to follow the navigation but we’re really nervous. Also we tried to get in line through a street which looked the same as the one along the border but there were many and a vendor let us know that we were Gng to get stopped and after receive a ticket. I hoped to have the name of every street we were on to get to the destination but we were so nervous getting lost or going the wrong way that I stopped recording. Thanks for your time 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    wow. when I was younger traveling to Mexicali in the 80's, 90's and some in the new millennia... the wait time was 2 to 4hrs back then (morning, noon or night)...and there was no eastern crossing yet. The crossing area where the tunnel begins was not there; it was alway just multi lane and if you didn't pay attention and there was space in front of you, someone would cut in line and take that empty space. Always had to be ready to press that gas petal; no day dreaming. The int'l government building was much different, looks like it was torn down and made a new. as you snaked through, curios what all that construction to the left is all about. Earlier in the video you mentioned to get gas if you can cuz it's cheaper. We made sure to always fuel up on the US side. Yes, gas was cheaper 20/30yrs ago but we didn't trust PEMEX gasoline in the cars, we were afraid it was not much above mud status. The only cars you can fuel up with PEMEX and not worry too much were diesel. I'm guessing it's better now... ?

    You took longer in that direction. The easier way is getting justo sierra all the way to the fence then thats when you get to the line.

    Does google maps show the correct directions?

      Depends on which lane you want to reach. Last time I crossed, Google Maps tried pushing me into Sentri when I wanted the all traffic lanes. If you are trying to reach all-traffic lanes, navigate to the border fence east of the crossing and drive on the parallel road until you find the end of the line. At this point, turn left and enter the one-lane road adjacent to the border fence to get in line.

      This video is the all traffic lanes going from Mexico into the USA. There is SENTRI but it's not the route in this video.
