"First, we want to go to Tijuana," he said.
"And we thank Mexico for your help, and the journalists. It gives us security," he added.
TRT World showed migrants chasing trucks, trying to snag a ride. More video showed men pouring off a trailer truck that had come to a stop.
The news service gushed over the caravan, saying "the men move faster, determined to keep going, even though they're tired, hungry and fed up with it all."
The video shows hitchhikers yelling as passing motorists refusing to stop to pick them up.
A Honduran man left his family behind as he seeks to make it to America.
"I want to travel to the USA to get any job to send money to my family. We don't have anything," he told TRT World.
