Planning my first trip to Trinidad & Tobago. Read through the older threads but wanted to check if info is still current.
My main questions:
1. Best area to stay for easy access to the scene?
2. Realistic daily budget including accommodation?
3. Any areas to avoid?
4. How is the quality compared to Thailand?
5. Any apps to use before arriving?
Coming from Canada with experience in Southeast Asia but first time in Trinidad & Tobago.
Any recent reports or recommendations appreciated. Thanks!

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

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

Adding my experience: scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

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

Also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.
