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
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there a while back and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers
Is Tips & Advice worth visiting?

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

I was there in February and prices were great value. Spent about $150/day all-in.
My tip: avoid weekends.
