Planning first trip to Canada. Need advice on:
1. Best area to stay
2. Daily budget
3. Safety concerns
4. Online vs in person?
5. Duration - thinking 7 days

Tips appreciated.

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to book your hotel in advance.

Not sure I agree about the area recommendation. I found downtown to be better.

Been going there for years and this is accurate. The scene has improved recently.

Great report! Quick question — how was the wifi at your hotel?

What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls at bars?

How's the nightlife there compared to the Philippines?

Great report, thanks for sharing. I had a similar experience when I was there last month.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from last month:

I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. 8/10 from me.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

Things are much the same as always since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: Better quality overall.

Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.
