Has anyone been to General Discussion 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 a while back and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.

I was there in March and prices were slightly higher. Spent about $150/day all-in.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.
