Charter bus service in Mexico is superior to that of the United States, with modern, comfortable buses for long-distance travel.
There are no regularly scheduled trains entering Baja from the USA, but Amtrak has service to San Diego, from there you can easily cross to Tijuana, and take onward buses to elsewhere in the peninsula.
