Has anyone been to Tips & Advice recently? Looking for the latest intel.

Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Transport tips

I was there last year and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.

Trying to decide between this and Germany.

Cheers

Been there 12 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The friendly atmosphere is what keeps me coming back.

I was there in March and prices were great value. Spent about $100/day all-in.

My tip: go early evening.

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

I was there in February and prices were great value. Spent about $100/day all-in.

My tip: midweek is much better.

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