How we pick the verdicts
Every Packzup comparison is built on multiple personal trips to both destinations being compared. We rate 6 dimensions per pair — usually beaches, food, cost, culture/sights, ease for first-timers, and a country-specific variable (nightlife, wildlife, etc.) — then give a verdict that acknowledges who each destination is best for. No “they’re both great” cop-outs.
