How's the daytime scene there compared to Colombia?

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

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

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from February:

I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2024.

Biggest change: Better quality overall.

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

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try going during the week.

I had a bad experience there last year. Maybe I went at the wrong time?

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to download an offline map.

I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2024.

Biggest change: Some of the old spots have closed.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

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

Good info. I'd add that the late night is the best time to go.
