Planning Tips
- Use the Grab app for transport — Avoid overpriced airport taxis and street-hailed trikes by booking a ride through Grab, which offers transparent, metered pricing.
- Book accommodation well in advance — Budget rooms near the entertainment area fill up quickly; consider staying along the Perimeter Road for a better value within walking distance.
- Stay alert on the street — Politely ignore strangers claiming to recognize you to avoid scams that lead to illegal gambling dens or theft.
- Bring cash for local eats — Sampling street food like sisig and halo-halo at the railroad crossing or Nepo Compound is a must, and smaller vendors often don't accept cards.
- Stay in well-lit areas at night — Stick to busy, populated streets like Fields Avenue and McArthur Highway, and avoid dark, quiet side roads after dark.
