Overall ATMs give you best rate and have best chance of no transaction fee (s). CC rewards 2% whatever, can be offset by rate / tran fees. Cash is the worst.
YMMV

If I recall the custom declaration form had no mention of alcohol. That would 'imply' there is no limit. I brought 2 one Lit bottles, no one checked anything.

Oh, well, maybe next time (if).

JjBee for the help.

I believe in clarifying / confirming, else how will one know. Especially with all the language issues. And of course new unknown terrain. If not for Q&A one will not indulge in...

Tried Energy on Friday evening, did not like the lineup or the ambiance. Walked away. The place is not that easy to find, and there is no "energy" sign outside.

So overall Medellin experience...

I just got a local SIM at the mall. Costed 20 K for 2 GB- not sure of carrier, it showed p as Airtel. Not sure if it was 1 week or unlimited time.

Data worked great, did not use voice (No...

I 'tried' to try the Centro clubs. They are in shady back streets, people sleeping on the pavements all over (at 5 PM).

The clubs weren't even open yet, it was Sunday. My understanding was they...

Ok I found it in the "pro" list, was looking at the non-pro.

Understand pesos and $s, but 280 k in setself a high price.

Is that the going rate? Is energy similar?

Which one is New Life. Google does not find it.

These guys no reply to WhatsApp.

Reached last Saturday afternoon.

1st evening at Parqe llera. Lots of Halloween crowd, lost of SWs. Nothing good.

Fase Dos:
Sunday evening 10 pm, thin crowd.
This is strip club, girls dance,...

Loutron 280 K- is that the going price? (Why are people only complaining about Gusto).

What are prices at Energy?

All these 3115504849 belong to La Calestina website.

In general for 200 $ you would get is worlds best. Just go to Europe, why will one come here. But life goes on.

Any issues with photoprepagos website girls. Safe / fake photos.

Just noticed there are several dozen girls with phone 3115504849 in Medellíand on photoprepagos.

"By going to Gustos, you are on their turf. Get away from that scene and you level the odds more in your favor. As many girls quoting 200 cop, I promise there are at least 5 times that number who...

The problem is "Foreigners don't know" - they flock to the the typical touristy areas. They simply get the price and quality they get. Out here prices go down from El Pob to Laureles to Centro-...

Everything around here is marked as $ and Nothing is marked K or KCOP, but they all mean COP. Check price for anything- restaurant menu to anything else it is all $.

Are Casas like Loutron, Energy, etc. Just walkin? Or need to call upfront, etc.

Prices / services have to be negotiated? Language seems to be serious issue- Google Tran can help but only that...

Google does not find Medellin Plaza. Is Mansion also Hotel M- that is what shows up in Google maps.

Isn't Mansion only for people who stay there? (And where is Mansion anyway?

Thanks.

Checked out a few of the sites. Rates indicated are $150 K. Do they mean 150 K COP? (better be). So that is the general going rate.

But otherwise deemed reliable and safe (within reason), can we...

Duncan- Happy mongering, please share your casa finds. Thanks.

Ok, advice noted.
