The Border Jumper is a tourist trolley service that takes a loop from El Paso round Juarez, taking in the major shopping points south of the border. The service operates at 2 hourly intervals (between the hours of 10am and 5pm) allowing ‘Jumpers’ to get on and off the bus as many times as they like at the seven designated drop- off points. The last Border Jumper of the day is at 4.40pm ex Mexico. With an all day ticket costing US$12, this is an excellent and easy way to visit to Mexico. Tickets are purchased from the orange carousel office located in the plaza of the Convention Centre.
