Visited Trinidad & Tobago for 10 days. Enjoyable experience. Scene is improved. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $94/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 7.5/10. One of my favourites.
AMA.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to bring small bills.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

This is outdated info IMO. Things have changed since last year. Current prices are actually lower than what's described here.

I'd also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

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

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.
