I have visited 14 countries and have met a lot of people, normally this is how most of us start planning our trips and itineraries.
There are a lot of pages for reviewing restaurants, bars, hotels, etc, but normally they are offline, i mean, the response is not live or depend of signing an account or wait for an email response.
Me personally, whenever i can, i try to assist people who ask questions live.
But most important, local guides is a free opinion tool for everyone out there, and from the last couple of years I’ve used this to start creating my itinerary for my trips based on personal opinions like yours! this can get me close to the best bar ever in another country and can keep me away from a bad place and bad memories.
We all must to use this!
Let me know your thoughts people!
Peace for everyone.
