Has anyone been to WAG Radio Discussion 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 last year and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Trying to decide between this and Thailand.
Cheers

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

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

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

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