Returned from 10 days in Border Towns. Great trip overall.

Accommodation:
Mid-range Airbnb near the main area. $29/night. Walking distance to everything.

Scene:
About what the forum described. Prices were in line with forum reports.

Quality:
Girls were friendly and attractive overall. Had 9 encounters total.

Logistics:
Taxis are cheap but negotiate first. Eating out was very affordable.

Safety:
Stick to main areas at night and you are fine.

Overall: 9/10. Already planning next trip.

Happy to answer any questions.

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.

I was there in last month and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $150/day all-in.

My tip: go early evening.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.
