Private, insured, door-to-door transportation for patients crossing from California to Tijuana. We handle the traffic, the line and the timing so your only job is getting better.
San Diego International, Cross Border Xpress and Tijuana International, with flight tracking, a driver holding your name and space for six passengers with luggage.
Zona Río, Otay, Playas, Chapultepec and the recovery houses in between. Your driver knows the address, the parking and the entrance your surgeon uses.
Spacious Toyota Sienna, smooth suspension, disinfected cabin, priority scheduling and the Medical Lane pass included so the return crossing is minutes, not hours.
Every route has a published fare for the patient plus one companion, a 50% deposit online and the balance after the service. No meters, no surge, no invented waiting charges.
Twelve services, one operation and one published fare per route. From the airport curb to the clinic door, from the recovery house to the follow-up appointment, we cover every movement a cross-border patient actually makes.

See detailsInsured passengers, a modern fleet, strict hygiene protocols and a committed team. The reasons our passengers come back are the same reasons their clinics recommend us.
Cross Border Transport LLC operates on both sides of the line with full passenger insurance coverage on every trip. You are not riding with a rideshare driver improvising a border crossing.
We plan the pickup backwards from your surgery, consultation or flight, and we build the border wait into the plan instead of discovering it. That is why our passengers arrive early, not apologetic.
Cabin, handles, seat belts and armrests are disinfected between passengers, and the vehicle is deep-cleaned daily. It matters more than usual when the person in the back seat is healing from a procedure.
Toyota Sienna vans with low step-in height, wide sliding doors, room to recline and a suspension that does not punish a fresh incision on Mexican pavement.
Trained bilingual drivers who help with luggage, walk you to the clinic entrance and wait until someone from the medical staff receives you. Dispatch answers on WhatsApp in minutes.
Every route has a price you can read before booking, a 50% deposit online and the balance after the service. Waiting time, out-of-hours service and border-line charges are all written in the terms, not improvised at the door.
We are experts in the logistics of cross-border transportation designed specifically for the medical sector.
We know the routes, the waiting times and the particular needs of people crossing from California to Tijuana in depth. We offer a professional mobility solution that guarantees you reach your medical appointments on time and in maximum comfort.
No meters, no vague conditions and no surprise charges at the door. This is the sequence every reservation follows, from the moment you choose a route to the moment the clinic receives you.
Pick the direction you are travelling — San Ysidro, San Diego, the airport or inside Tijuana — and whether you need the Premium or the Premium Medical service. Each option shows its published fare.
Reservations open up to six months ahead. Choose the hour your clinic or airline gave you; we work backwards from it to set the pickup.
Pick-up address and drop-off address are required: hotel, home, terminal, clinic or recovery house. Add the flight number or the surgeon's name if you have them.
A secure card payment reserves the vehicle and the driver for your window. The remaining balance is settled after the service is completed.
You receive the confirmation by email, SMS and WhatsApp with the driver's details and the dispatch number you can write to at any hour.
The driver arrives ahead of the window, helps with luggage, crosses with you and does not leave until the clinic, the hotel or the terminal has received you.
Five pickup zones on the California side, Mexicali to the east and four medical districts in Tijuana. Pick yours and see the fare, the timing and what our drivers know about it.
The busiest land border crossing in the western hemisphere is four minutes from our office — and the shortest, cheapest way into Tijuana for a medical appointment.
Hotel, home or airport terminal anywhere in the city, straight to the clinic door in Tijuana, on a published fare of $105 USD one way.
Ten minutes from the border and the single largest source of repeat medical travellers we carry — dental patients, follow-up visits and families who cross several times a year.
The second crossing and the air bridge: Otay Mesa moves faster than San Ysidro at certain hours, and CBX puts you inside the Tijuana airport terminal without ever standing in a car line.
The medical heart of the city: surgical centres, specialist towers, laboratories and imaging, most of them within a few blocks of Paseo de los Héroes.
The district next to the airport and the second crossing, where many of the city's recovery houses and a growing share of its surgical centres are.
The hillside district above the racetrack, where several of the city's best known private hospitals and surgical clinics sit behind gated parking.
The coastal end of the city, where a good share of the recovery houses are — and the reason many patients choose to spend their recovery week looking at the ocean.
Two and a half hours of freeway and a border, done in one reservation instead of a rental car, a parking lot and a stranger picking you up at the line.
The capital of Baja California is two hours east through the mountains — and for patients treated in Mexicali, or arriving through Calexico, it is a route we run on request.
Real trips, real appointments, reviews you can verify on Google.
Amazing service, was able to accommodate my time change request last minute. I will definitely book again.
They were very great on pickup and drop-off, responded to questions quickly and really helped me with some extra things which was really appreciated after being so tired from surgery.
Absolutely great! Fast, easy, reliable! I definitely recommend it. 10/10 the best!
The questions we answer on the phone every week, written down.
Same-day transportation is handled by dispatch directly. Message +1 (619) 752-0681 on WhatsApp and we will tell you in minutes whether a unit is available.
Published one-way fares start at $90 USD from San Ysidro to Tijuana and $105 USD from San Diego, including the airport, for the patient plus one companion. Premium Medical Transportation, which includes the Medical Lane pass on the northbound return, starts at $120 USD one way. Round trips and group quotes are on our rates page.
The published fare covers the patient plus one companion in a private vehicle — nobody else is added to your trip. For three or more passengers call +1 (619) 752-0681 or +52 (663) 324-9475 and we will quote the group rate before you book.
As early as you have your appointment. The booking calendar accepts reservations up to six months ahead, and early-morning surgery windows fill first. Same-day requests are handled through WhatsApp whenever a unit is available.
No. A 50% deposit is charged securely online to reserve the vehicle and the driver; the remaining balance is settled once the service is completed. The full amount must be cleared before the transport begins.
Southbound into Tijuana is usually minutes. Northbound is the slow direction: the regular lane includes one hour of waiting in the fare, and additional waiting is charged at $15 USD per hour. The Medical Lane pass, included in Premium Medical Transportation, shortens that wait dramatically.
Tell dispatch as soon as you know. We track flights and we hold a 30-minute courtesy wait at every pickup. Beyond that, waiting is billed at $15 USD per additional 30 minutes, and if another reservation is already scheduled that client takes priority.
Practical guides written from thousands of border crossings: how to time the line, what the medical lane really does, how to plan a recovery week and what to have ready before your date.
Border crossing
Southbound is minutes. Northbound is the one that ruins schedules. Here is how the San Ysidro and Otay Mesa crossings actually behave, and how to build an appointment day that survives them.
Border crossing
It is not a shortcut you talk your way into at the gate. It is a documented authorization that moves your vehicle into an expedited lane — and on the right day it is the single best thing you can buy for a post-operative trip.
Recovery
The surgery is scheduled and the recovery house is booked. What is usually missing is the plan for the eight or nine separate trips you are going to need between them.
Tell us the date, the time and the two addresses. We confirm the vehicle, the driver and the published fare in writing — usually within minutes.
