Video

You should make more videos.

Stand aside. Don’t block the view.. and don’t mumble.

I drove into Tijuana once a couple of months ago. Within 30 minutes of arriving in Tijuana, I was shaken down by the police for $100. I completed my business in the next 15 minutes and got into line to return to the US. I will NEVER go back to Mexico - the officials are ridiculously corrupt and are shake down artists.

When

The key is to bring plenty of $20 dollar bills. Tell them that's all you have. Speak a bit of Spanish to them. Show them you love their people and country .... and that's easy to do because the Mexican people are amazing. The military and cops and EVERYONE is a family oriented person in Mexico.

Loved the video. I had a great childhood and have rafted a lot. Growing up I never did a trip like this. I now raft 50+ days a year. I can't imagine how much more I would be rafting now if I had taken trips like this as a child. You are a great parent. I hope there are more of you out there. And yes we all hate dams, but who doesn't like buliding them in a creek as a kid? Priceless

Great tips, especially sitting away from the bus stickers. But my lord why did you bring such huge horrendous luggage???! Super inconvenient on the bus and those stairs I would think. Loved your take on how you ended the video. Perspective is key and yes, Just GO! 🌍 ✈️

thank you for making this video. I came across it trying to find out more about Peruhop but your message at the end is invaluable and is something I think everyone should hear before travelling to another destination where opportunities we’ve had are harder to come by ❤

Great video. Honest and informative. Best part is your advice at the end.

I appreciate your view on bartering and not trying to beat down prices when people are just trying to make a living. Thanks for the review

Thank you so much for your video! However, you weren't prepaid and just crossed initially without knowing the risks not having the permit and then you got nervous... Obviously you didn't do your research ahead in time...

Does it get fully booked? Like say I want to get from Cusco to Puno but wont know until day before when I wanna leave Cusco, is there a chance it is fully booked?

We enjoyed watching your CZcams, we are going later this year, but not by bus thank you

Was the 2 hour Puno tour enough? it's 20-30min to the islands so that leaves 1 hour on the island itself? The bus schedule says arrive Puno 6am depart to Copacabana 8am what if the tour is back after 8am?

Excellent report 👌. I have wanted to go here for years 😕. Its our 30th wedding anniversary in February so we have decided to go for it ☺️

Thank you so much for this review. Very helpful and I love the ending❤

Enjoyed this, sorry you weren't well. I've been looking at some Hoka shoes for this trip, are they just Speedgoat or Hiking?

That’s a lovely video. I really appreciated your message. Reassured me with my Peru Hop choice. But I will confirm my choices. Thank you.

What border crossing was that?

Great, honest review.

Wow that’s incredible. Was it worth it? Would you do it again I’m sure that questions been asked thanks for the video.

Glad that you enjoy your visit to my hometown. Day of the dead is a very important date for us because is not only to remember our ancestors but also to remember that we are here for a short time and to honor those who came before us we must live the best life we can. now the kids on the catedral is a especial mass for the day of all saints (november 1st Dia de los Inocentes),}when whe remember the children who have died and the second day celebrates all deceased adults.

I like your video. My daughter and I plan to go to Peru and Bolivia next year and I think we will take Peru off. Not bargain in this country, I am agree with you. And your last sentence, if you want.. Go. I fond off. Thanks a lot.

Sounds like a very entitled American for the first 8 minutes

Score: 1.750 (out of 10.000)

Thanks for this will definitely do the PeruHop all the way to La Paz. What month did you visit? Thanks

Thank you for your video

Did they scan your passport in Mexico?

The perfect time to go to Cusco is in June. They have so many festivities and you will see a lot of the culture.

hope you feel fine after all

you had covid? fuc oh fart luck bro, but my best wishes

Good video, my friend.

We backpacked Coyote Gulch a couple times about 30 years ago. Saw only half a dozen other people there each time.

May I ask does Peru hop pick you from your accommodation or do you have to make your own way to designated boarding points? If it’s the latter, where can I get information on the meeting place in each city?

That looked amazing hope you guys had fun

❤❤❤

Sounds like you were freaking out for not reading and knowing the rules ahead of time, for a second I thought you had ran into cartels or something. I'm glad it all worked out for you and your family.

Very thorough. Thank you this looks fun!

What crossing was that?

What psi do you run on this with the van?

What EXCELLENT advice at the end! They are grateful for our generosity. We help them survive. I live in Ecuador, and sometimes get the "gringo tax" or get "gringoed" which I don't appreciate, especially since I'm very generous, as well. Blessings!

Hello!!! We met at the Overland expo west in flagstaff AZ last year, my family camped right next to you in our van. Are you and yours planning on attending the expo again?

Hey again Travel with 6! Also - your wonderful practical advice about airing down the tires on the drive (so your eyeballs don't shake out of your head 🙂) Pointing out landmarks while hiking to the Gulch . . VERY helpful! Thank you again!

Hey - Travel with 6! I watched your video to see the way into the Gulch - but I got so much more out of it! Your philosophy especially last few minutes. You said: "This is where you earn it" and also "It's do-able" . . and your lessons that your kids learn (great advice for adults also). And the music that you chose for that talk was perfect! Best Dad Ever! Thank you!!

Smart People Stay Out Of Mexico!!! 🇲🇽 It's Suicide. God Be With You. Especially If You Get Stuck In Mexico. More Especially At Night. And Even Worse With Stupid People. Never Again!!!!

$400 in tolls????? Outrageous!

SALUDOS AMIGO

Thank you so much for your candor in telling us your story! We would like to take a road trip to Mexico and are currently trying to gather all the information we can! Can’t believe all the trolls on here being negative though about your experience. 🙄 I appreciate you sharing so we can learn through you!

Motoring is fucking lame

You make it more difficult. I've driven for years. Show some huevos
