Know before you go
The practical stuff every traveler needs - weather, safety, costs and how to get around.
Best time to visit
Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) avoid both the desert heat and the winter mountain cold. Summers are very hot inland; the coast stays milder, and desert nights are cold year-round.
Safety tips
- Agree prices before guides, taxis and market purchases
- Use registered ride-hailing apps at night rather than hailing on the street
- Carry a copy of your ID and leave the original in your accommodation safe
- Traveling with a verified partner adds an easy extra layer of safety
Accommodation & daily budget

- $10-20/ night
- Budget hotel / guesthouse
- $30-60/ night

Splitting a twin room and transport with a partner can cut your daily costs by 30-40%.
