Bogota Reports

[LatinaLover#1]

When P & P was announced they said only one person in a restaurant. Now yesterday they reversed course.

"Cada medida sanitaria que hemos tomado en Bogotá busca un equilibrio entre el cuidado de la salud why de la economía.

Escuchando a pequeños empresarios why tras un acuerdo con ellos en control de aforos why horarios, hemos levantado medida de #PicoYCedula para restaurantes why hoteles. ".

Lot's of resistance from the banking and business community in Bogota to any more shutdowns or quarantine. However, with ICU's filling up I don't trust Lopez for a minute from going rouge and flipping Bogota upside down again. My usual MO is to go to Bogota every 6 weeks or so or my novia to come to the states so I was scheduled to go back to Bogota January 14th but we decided better she comes here. Too much aggravation dealing with P&P one day this, next day that. While I don't see the PCR ever returning again I do see a full lock down in Bogota and possible Airport shutdown. I'm not down for weeks on end being stuck in a Bogota hotel, especially the way the administration is constantly moving the goal post.

Gentlemen,

After a year and a half, I will be returning to Colombia next Tuesday for at least 3 weeks, but up to 6 weeks. Small chance I change my flight to visit Brazil on the front end in order to avoid their new PCR test requirement that takes effect on the 30th, but that would only delay the trip by about 10 days. This trip, I plan to visit all Bogota has to offer since I have so much time. SF, northern clubs, MPs, and casas. In previous trips I spent most of my time in SF out of convenience.

Bottom line. I know that I have not contributed much to the forum to deserve the collected wisdom of its members. I'm hoping that my few trip reports from last year are enough to garner some favor in answering a few questions, so that I may have a good time and give back to the forum in the form of detailed reports during the visit. And if that isn't enough, I am happy to share a funny story of an unforgettable experience when I was staying at the famous White House in Medellin. The hook, line, and sinker: I was awoken in the middle of the night to the sound of police raiding the place.

To avoid redundancy and looking like a fool, I have done significant RTFF prior to forming the questions below:

1.) My plan is to stay at Ibis (near SF) and B3 (Zona Rosa). Both of those places were guest friendly during my last visit pre-COVID, but am unsure if the policy remains so? I have done my due diligence but have not yet heard back from the hotel staff. If this has changed, or anyone has any better guest-friendly recommendations (to include AirBnBs), please reach out.

2.) As previously stated, I will be going through the full gamut of all Bogota has to offer, but for the days I'm feeling lazy and don't want to leave the hotel, does anyone have any recommended agencies? La Celestina was pretty good for me in the past but don't know how covid has impacted their operations. I will use photoprepagos and mileroticos as I have also done in the past, but am looking for the "easy button" on the days I just need to take a knee and drink water.

3.) Will I need to show a return trip ticket when I go through customs / immigrations upon arrival? Research tells me that this is sometimes the case, but looking to get the latest from recent travelers. I haven't had to show a return trip before but you never know with the current COVID situation.

4.) Pico why Cedula. I've read the news articles and have the dual ID info from previous posts, but is there anything else I should be aware of before arriving from guys on the ground? Any anticipated shutdowns of specific businesses or travel?

Thanks in advance for any information, and as previously stated, any assistance will help me write better trip reports in the coming weeks! I recently purchased a membership so am open to messages that are better suited for PMs as well.

Oh and Woodman, I'll be reaching out soon to arrange a tour!

Happy Holidays,

TIA.

OK guys, I know I am going to get hammered for this but I have RTFF and I think I know what this is all about but would like some feedback from those in the know or Boots on the Ground. I just got an email from the embassy in Bogot saying that the pico why Cedula will go back into effect through Christmas and into the new year. My questions are how does this affect tourists? How will this affect me if I want to take a taxi to an MP or a hotel or whatever? Will it affect walking around in Santa Fe, etc. Etc. Any help will be appreciated. Feel free to dog cuss me about RTFF if you must, but I just got the email yesterday. And just like the Covid restrictions they seem to change on a daily basis.

As a tourist your legal ID is your passport. That's the one you should be using. However, if you also have the passport card, you could probably use that as well.

I've asked this question in various forms. But I think I'll try again before I go back to an AirBnB. I like clean, comfortable 3* and up hotels with fluffy towels and clean sheets. I also like bringing chicas in without a hassle.

I saw a report that sounded like the Marriott didn't bother you. Is that true? Are there any other nice hotels that tolerate female guests? Or at least don't have a ridiculous chica fee?

[El Mechanico]

From what I've read, it doesn't affect movement around the city. You may be asked for you ID when you enter more proper establishments. I doubt you'll be asked for a massage parlor, but in anycase, just bring two ID's one ending in an odd number and one ending in an even number.

That's what I was thinking. My DL ends in an odd number & passport ends in an even number. I have contacted several prepagos and the answer seems to be the same. Unless I am going to a supermarket, bank, mall. Department store, etc, I won't be stopped or interrogated. Thanks for your response.

Back in Bogota, leaving tomorrow. I miss HKTJ and their CLEAN rooms. Virus? I was told if you stay in an enclosed space for 2 hours where someone has the virus, you will get it. Passing by, nada.

I had to see Medellin. I like everything about it except the cabbies and too much walking uphill. I am not just a monger. Tours in Medellin were amazing. But Bogota is easier to get around. I think the holidays slowed everything down. Still I met 4,. 10's in 30 days and a lot of others. I wish the casas in Bogota were easier to find. WTF? I'll be back. Probably in 3 months. I will say this. Seeking in Medellin is a waste of time, mostly pro's there. Girls are going on-line, trolling. Cost you 300 k + for a 9. Bogota is better for SA. It takes a lot of time however. La Isla spoiled me. WOW More details later.

Good to meet you a few weeks back when you got to Medellin, sounds like you enjoyed yourself, and yes the chicas are fun at La Isla, I will never forget that first night we headed up there, the building power was going on and off and good thing we decided to stay until the power was on again, oh the memories.

Gods speed to you my friend and hurry back.

Good deal for a 9, if you ask me. Less than $100. If it is a normal 3-4 hrs date.

Could you please share your experience with SA in Bogota?

MP? Santa Fe? LOL. You funny. It means you can't do shit unless it is your day. No grocery store, no bank, no restaurant, no outside. Only pharmacy, doctor, and funeral. This will be until January 15th.

Solo quedarn exceptuados de esta nueva medida los centros de salud, las farmacias y los servicios funerarios.

Ok, thanks M. E. I understand the basics of the P why see regulation. So now what I am asking is. As a foreigner / Non-Colombian / Gringo, how do I determine which is my day & which is not my day. So before you say "It is according to your CEDULa number! I don't have a CEDULA, So is the passport used or which document is used?

Thanks.

Sorry about the Irish exit there. She dropped the "she can't explain it, but has developed feelings and can't take my money tonight" card. I wanted to put that to rest. Needless to say, we left quick and went back for great sex. True to her word, she didn't want my money even when I offered her some for the night. She just wanted to say thanks for the good time and went home to rest before school. It might be a long game of trying to get money in the future, but after the number of girls I have been with I can see that from a mile away, and don't think that is it.

No worries about the Irish exit. I thought you just wanted to get home to do some banging LOL. Can't blame you for that. We definitely have different mongering styles, but, glad to have met you.

[DonCarlos1234]

I'm glad to see this report.

Last time I went to Lidos and another high end club I forget the name it was completely different.

The closest thing to a 10 I ever saw was at lidos.

I'm hearing a similar trend in medellin from Centro to Lleras.

I don't doubt this is not a coincidence.

Back in Bogota, leaving tomorrow. I miss HKTJ and their CLEAN rooms. Virus? I was told if you stay in an enclosed space for 2 hours where someone has the virus, you will get it. Passing by, nada.

Was in Santa Fe last night around 8:30 pm went to troya about 15 girls and 15 guys one girl had a nicely done booty. Paisas was closed. Atonis and Venus was packed but only one decent looking 18 year old type in each of them. Fiebre my go to was not that busy maybe 25 girls in the 6-7 range. By around 10 pm the police started coming around and you had to play the game of rushing into the club doors when they turn their back. LOL today I went and got some Botox on my forehead wrinkles only $360 k. Tried going to andino to kill the day away but was turned away for not having a Colombian cedula.

Andino mall?

Because of the 2017 terrorist attack?
