Trying to get a hold of you. Pm me please.
Looking to take a trip to visit the "river of 5 colors" (I. E. Caņo Cristales). Heard it's best to spend 3-4 days out there. Of course, it would be better if there was some action out there.
Non-Spanish speaker here (so picking up locals / non-pros) might be a bit of a stretch.
Thoughts?

Thoughts?[/QUOTE]That's one of those BYOP trips. I hiked LOS Nevados outside of Manizales. I really love the outdoors here. Getting to the river and back is a logistical headache. Please report back your experience of the place and travel details.
GF.
I'm in the beginning stages of planning a return to Colombia next year and looking into places to visit. My friend in Bogota made several suggestions. When she suggested Manizales, I asked which was better, Pereira or Manizales.
She says Manizales is a prettier place, but the women are easier in Pereira. Made me chuckle.
The trip is 1/2 mongering and 1/2 tourism. The preliminary itinerary includes Bogota, Medellin, Nuqui, Manizales, Bucaramanga and Leticia. Subject to many changes.

Thoughts?[/QUOTE]Looks like an awesome place. My contact says there was guerrilla activity in the area in the not too distant past, but I don't believe it's a problem now.
Maybe you'll get lucky and run into a lonely backpacker.
Anyone have any cool info for me? First time going to Pereira. Any good bar recommendations? I can still pick up amateur girls with pretty good success. Otherwise, cool places to eat, any good massage parlors / casas with chicas I should know about? Daytime activities?
Follow the Map.

Is that pretty much the area I should be staying in? I've been to Medellin a bunch of times, but never here. Is that one of the more populated areas with more bars etc?
My buddy stayed at the Soratama and I stayed at the Abadia. The reason being two different hotels was I did not make a reservation and did not have my passport. I had only a copy and they would not accept it, but the other hotel did.
If you do not book online it will cost you more. Maybe $20 more.
Also I just add a new place on the Map, if you get a chance please check it out and fill in the blanks.

Do they both allow guests? Besides 2 girls I've known a while that may actually stay over, I plan on meeting and bringing back some different ones.

Its a drinking mans bar, that has rooms in the back for sexo. Another thing in Pereira there's these 24 hour cafeterias in the downtown area. Go to the malls Bolivar Plaza, and Victoria, good places to hang out.
Also there's streetwalkers in the Parque Bolivar during daytime and at night. Shorttime hotels are close by, within walking distance. For a little adventure you can go to the zoo. Also outside the city there are hotspring spas at Santa Rosa de Cabral; a good way to relax during the daytime. Pereira is a safe, friendly place to hang out.
Thank you very much. Are you here now?
