Has anyone been to Tips & Advice recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there 6 months ago and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The value for money is what keeps me coming back.

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

Also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.
