TJ Premier Mens Club Visit

[MrDakota]

I was able to make a trip down to Tijuana and go to Premier Mens club last week on Saturday night.

Club was pretty busy upon arrival at 1:30am.  there were about 23 dancers college age to out of college and muscle builders.  

Did get a private show in the club, they now offer some other from of private upstairs in the bath house but my dancer was saying we were fine in clubs private room.

Private room was $40 usd, but opted to pay in pesos at 700.  Dancer was great and I was fully satisfied with his show.

I was only 1 of 3 American's and the staff seemed more welcoming then normal, perhaps due to the decline of American's coming to TJ with the border issues. 

As always, parked on the USA side, walked over the border to the gas station where the cabs sit to get pesos out of the atm right there.  then got an uber to the club and back which is $2 usd each way.  No issues that way.  Good visit overall - club is still thriving

Thank you for the writeup! Is that pretty much the process of going to TJ or are there any other precautions/instructions? I've flown into Mexico a million times but I had always been weary about crossing over by foot to TJ given the reputation

Just stay away from police.  they drive around with flashing lights so you know where they are.  I've had problems in the past with them just stopping me walking down the crowded Ave Revelucion street basically cause I'm an American and they want to shake us down.  Just uber from the gas station right outside the border crossing (dead ends into it) where all the taxi's are, and go right to Premier and go inside.  Reverse I get an uber while waiting inside until he's directly outside the door, then peak my head to make sure the cops aren't right around the area before going to the car.  

I would not trust taxi's.  Use Ubers.  USD is well taken in TJ if you don't want to get Pesos.  If you do want pesos, get it at the USA side of the border before you cross or the ATM inside the gas station outside the border check point.  There is not ATM in premier and the closest is several blocks down the street outside a casino, which the police look for dumb American's to use and walk to the strip clubs.  They tend to target more of the straight guys going to the major female strip club "Hong Kong" which is a few blocks from Premier.  I would avoid walking down Revelucion (the main night club street under the arch) unless your with a group.  There are multiple gay clubs with go-gos but best to under even a few blocks.   The people on the street are fine, it's just the police you have to be aware of.  

Premier itself is run very well and you will have no problems there - just make sure you have a good translator app if you don't speak Spanish AND the language  is downloaded for offline use as the cellular data signal in that area is bad. It is extremely loud and I now bring ear plugs as I no longer want my ears ringing for days. Highly recommend this - bring them and if you don't use them no biggies but I have a feeling you will.
