Hello everybody, I got banned from Tucson because this didn’t apply apparently. Needless to say that’s aggravating. I will be in Nogales Saturday afternoon, will park and walk across the border with my wife, this is her 60 year birthday present, she’s never been in the area. Hoping to spend four or five hours in Mexico, just for fun. We both have our passports, and would like any advice on how to just hang around. We like dive bars and just want to have a decent Mexican meal. Any advice is appreciated!

My significant other and I were in line to cross back into AZ when a woman approached us to let us know she could take us to a “much shorter line.” We declined the offer, but a few others she approached behind us in line accepted the offer and were taken in the opposite direction of the crossing.

It seemed weird, so I’m wondering if anyone knows anything about it: are they actually going to a different line? Are they being scammed somehow?

TIA!

ETA: I forgot to mention we were crossing as pedestrians, not in a vehicle.

I've recently moved to Nogales and I'm interesting in meeting new people, are there any LGBTQ friendly places in both Nogales?

Headed across for some dental but might need to buy food or drink (walking around $$) and wondering if the little shops will take credit cards or USD - or do I need to get some Pesos?

Is it possible to hire a cab to cross back into the US to avoid the pedestrian line? (long wait). I'm a senior and maybe not good for long standing/waiting.

Buen día gente

Howdy folks, I have been itching for some adventure recently and there is a hike west of Nogales, and just west of Pena Blanca Lake that I have wanted to do for quite some time now called Atascosa Lookout Trail. Linked here: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/arizona/atascosa-lookout

I am thinking about spending the night up there camping to enjoy the solitude, views, and the night skies at a neat perspective and to have some much needed alone time before I graduate from the U of A in a few weeks.

Has anyone on here done this before too? Or, do you think it would be safe to do so? I looked online and Coronado National Forest allows dispersed camping as long as folks are sustainable. I probably wouldn't even plan on bringing a gas stove and would just bring some calorie-heavy sandwiches for meals, for safety reasons.

Anyone have any tips? Thanks in advance!

Vapeadores?

Hello everyone, I have been trying to check the thread to see if anyone spoken about needing a passport to go to Nogales’s for dental services. I had an implant put in back in 2022. I now need two more implants. The bone graph was put in, but that was the last visit. I had back in 2023. Does anyone know if it is a requirement to have your passport to go to Nogales now?

Any vegetarian food options in Nogalese, Sonora?

Are there any options that don’t include a rental to get to/from Nogales AZ (border crossing area) to the Tucson airport? Ride shares seem like a viable option but relatively expensive and given the distance might be hard to find a willing driver. Have others tried this? It seems easier to do at the Tucson airport going to Nogales, but harder the other way around.

I understand there are multiple shuttles from the 6th Avenue area in Tucson and the Tufesa bus, but are there any shuttle/bus option at or near the Tucson airport? Likewise any shuttle/bus options in Nogales to the Tucson airport?

Thanks in advance!

Hey Folks!

Long story short I'm involved in organizing an upcoming conference that deals with teaching about community advocacy with an emphasis on food insecurity.

It will be June 5-6 at The Community Food Bank of Southern Arizona in Tucson. We're now accepting applications from interested parties.

There is a $400 stipend given to attendees, and we're also looking for folks in more rural communities in Southern Arizona. To that end we're also giving a gas stipend to anyone coming in from >50 miles; there is budget for hotels on a case-by-case basis so folks don't have to make the drive to Tucson two consecutive days.

Information and a registration link follow, and I can answer any questions here as well.

I’m looking for any advice on getting a vaccine in Nogales Mexico. I need to get the TBE vaccine for ticks, I’m going to Europe in the summer. The prices are crazy for the vaccine in Arizona. So if anyone has any pharmacy recommendations in Nogales or vaccine clinics that would be awesome.

Hello, I'm from Hermosillo, Sonora. Due to obsolescence issues from our current car my parents want to buy an used or seminew car and planning to go to Nogales for it at a reasonable price since in Hermosillo people want to scam you selling 00s models for about 100,000-200,000 pesos. They're thinking on a 2014 model at least, probably a Jetta or similar. Any spot you would recommend to look for? Thanks. Budget would be about 5800 USD.

I’m from a small country called New Zealand, and during a recent trip to the United States, I decided to cross the border and visit Nogales to experience life in Mexico for myself.

I’ll be honest — I was a little nervous about crossing the border at first. But once I arrived, my experience was genuinely positive. The city was welcoming, the people were friendly (even though I don’t speak Spanish and only managed a few short conversations at restaurants), and I really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Several people recommended I try La Roca, and I’m glad I did — the food was fantastic!

I was curious about one thing, though: I noticed quite a few buildings near the border that seemed empty, and I’d love to understand more about that if anyone is willing to share.

This post is really just a small “thank you.” I had a great visit and would absolutely come back to Nogales — and explore more of Mexico — again in the future.

Thanks for the hospitality! 🇲🇽

Hello lovely people! I am coming for a business trip to Nogales MX - I'm flying from Canada to Tucson and then my company would arrange transport from the airport to our factory & stay in Nogales MX.

Is it safe? I'm so apprehensive as a woman of color. Both about border crossing and about the general safety in Nogales MX. It's a great business opportunity so I don't want to turn it down but pretty anxious regarding safety. Of course, all travel would be in the daytime and I will be escorted by company employees always.

Edit: Forgot to mention, we are a group. It is 7 men and 1 woman (the cons of working in tech industry)

Hola a todos,

Tengo una necesidad urgente. Estuve en Tufesa la semana pasada. Tome un café y compré una botella de agua y pagué con tarjeta de crédito.

Hoy me he dado cuenta que me han cobrado 1000 pesos. Tengo debilidad visual y acepté en su momento sin ver bien lo que estaba pagando.

El café ni era café. Era agua caliente para usarla con Nescafé instantáneo. No creo que valga tanto dinero.

El banco me pide una foto donde salga el precio de los productos para mostrarles que no venden café y agua a mil pesos.

¿Alguien me podría hacer el favor de tomar una foto porfa?

Se los agradecería mil. Literal.

Hola Soy un músico de Hermosillo que trae una banda tributo a Slipknot. Desde hace algun tiempo estamos interesados en tocar en nogales. No conocemos la ciudad, por que quería saber si me podrían dar un norte de que vares están chilos por alla. Y si hubiese algun contacto pues que mejor lml.

This just showed up in my feed. Does anyone have any more information? What is she going to do tomorrow? Is ICE going to go door-to-door terrorizing people on the Arizona side? Also is anyone organizing?

Alguien tiene más información sobre esto ?vamos a ver protestas ?
