Has anyone been to Central Mexico recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there last year and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Trying to decide between this and Colombia.
Cheers

Also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

I was there in January and prices were great value. Spent about $50/day all-in.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Did you use dating apps or find girls at clubs?
