Cartagena Reports

[Hotrod10]

Just returned from 4 days in CTG. I have used airbnb at least 30 times. Had a few minor problems most were of my one making but nothing like I just experienced. I rented and paid for a nice place in a condo complex near the walled city but airbnb sent me the wrong address. I won't bore you with the details but it wasn't pretty. This was my first time in CTG and no matter how many times I have read how hot it is I was not ready for the sauna that I experienced. From the airport I spent 2-3 hours in a taxi (no AC) looking for an address that doesn't exist. Finally I checked into a different hotel with AC just to cool down. First night I checked out the clock tower. 10 pm - 20 chicks, midnight 40-50 chicks most 5-6 some 7 a few 8. Still this was amazing to see. They were everywhere every color, size and age and many grabbing at spike and asking for sex. I settled for a 30 something 6 with a 10 attitude. Spent an hour with her for 200 mil and after a 20 min DATY my entire head was wet. Night 3, I picked a tiny blond that looked so young I asked to see her ID. She was 21 but looked 16. WOW what a night. This city has everything a person could want. If you like seafood this is your heaven. A restaurant called HARVEYS has the best seafood I have ever had. Its an outside cafe so go late and try the seafood stew. Once you have seen the old town wall, that really in amazing there isn't much else to see. Will I go back probably not.

This happens occasionally. Sometimes even a police truck comes out and they in mass load the chicas in. Sometimes you'll see one guy on a bicycle ride up and start checking IDs. Sometimes this happens when there's a dignitary in town and they want to clean up the street. Other times its because the chicas started appearing too early and they want to push them back to being 11 pm onwards.

The chicas have a constitutional right to earn a living. The cops cannot, in theory, stop them from doing their work as it pertains to selling sex for cash. They can deport chicas who do not have a stamp in their passport or residency if they are not Colombian. They can also check the ages of the chicas. I've seen Venezuelan chicas I know shrug and walk away from the cop and go back to standing around. Usually the cop can't do much if all they are doing is quietly working late at night.

You don't need to worry about it. The cops aren't there to bother tourists.

So true that you don't have to worry about the cops. It is an amazing thing for us gringos, like myself from California where prostitution is illegal, at times I find myself be it in Medellin or Bogota or Cali or Cartagena or Santa Marta or where ever in Colombia standing within an arms reach of a few policemen (and sometimes police women) as I negotiate with a puta without any worry. What a complete mindset change this is.

I appreciate the information, it is a relief to know that a prime market area is not being closed down for good. As for "the cops are not there to bother tourist", I was not worried about that. Although, I myself was stopped in a taxi with a chica I had just picked up near the clocktower and the cops had me get out of the taxi and they search me. They did not bother the chica. I assume they were looking to see if I was holding any drugs. Sometimes they bother the chica and not the tourist and sometimes they bother the tourist and not the chica. But I know from my three trips there that this also rare.

When you say the cops came and cleared traffic from the clock tower are you saying that they are putting a stop to chicas hanging out there? That the clock tower is no longer the place to go to look for chicas? Or am I getting the wrong impression?

Definitely make your way to space bar. All the ladies were hanging out there when the cops came to clear up all the traffic from the clock tower. All the women were just hanging out dancing / twerking, ready to be picked. Also, just making your way in that direction will give you tons of options from the street. They were all good looking. Have fun! Wish I was going too!

Howdy all,

Long time reader first time poster to Cartagena. It will be my 3rd trip to Colombia and second to Cartagena. I have an Air BNB near the walls historical area and can bring guests to and throw as I please. I have 5 days in Cartagena and looking for suggestions from people on recent trips or up to date information.

I have numerous numbers from Photoprepagos and will of course use them. I know where the clock tower is and comfortable going to pick up there if anything looks decent. I know the place LDV but never went in as it was packed full of guys, but could pop my head in if needs be. I know where playa Hollywood is and was offered some young chicas from some young lads in the day but declined out of respect for the western girl I was with from the hostel.

I also have a number and address of Eden massage, if anyone has information on this place would be useful?.

Can you PM me regarding the girl friendly airbnb.

Playa Blanca is a nice beach with turquoise water and nice sand. It's reachable by a short boat ride or a long taxi ride. It's a full day's trip because of the travel time and costs. Weekends are crowded.

I would certainly suggest you go here and look at World traveler 69's map.

http://www.internationalsexguide.nl/...artagena-Lists

scroll down in Cartagena list until you see World Travel 69 post #491 with the map link.

I'm heading down to cartagena in the first week of October any chance we're going to overlap. I like to fly solo but maybe we can exchange notes, meet up for a drink

I found this excellently written article on a spanish language website. I assume that the journalist is writing in response to community pressure to not allow the chicas of the night in the plaza. It is written in spanish, my chrome browser translates automatically but otherwise I suggest copying and pasting one paragraph at a time into Google Translator on your laptop or desktop. If it does not become a link here just copy and pasted the URL into the browser window.


Excerpt : "What would it be about the Plaza de los Coches without this handful of Egyptian princesses who visit it every night to be there, standing, as lookouts, firmer than the Clock Tower, as if they were the ones who actually marked the time of the city"

This incident happened in Canada I posted it on the Vancouver site. Its worth keeping in mind when you bring a hooker to your apartment for a drink before the real fun starts. I picked up a gorgeous blond I guess about 20-21. We agree to terms and now we are in my apartment having a cold beer to relax. I will skip to the important part. Not long after I made a trip to the head and we are laughing and joking she jumps up and says, you ass hole you switched beers. Now she is stumbling to the door and still screaming what a prick I was for switching the beer. All I could think to say was, HUH if I switched the beers I didn't do it on purpose. As she is trying to get down the 15 or so steps to the parking lot she almost made it but fell flat on her ass on the bottom step. Still trying to scream but now its almost a whisper. She gets up and stagers to a car and gets in on the passengers side and off they go. Man oh man, she had such a perfect ass. Now I'm back in the apartment where spike and I have a long conversation about whose in charge. OK all joking aside this was one of those close calls that I always think about when I bring a hooker to my apartment. Yea I still do that but I have set up many rules that I abide by. Think about it.

P.S. I am assuming that the codeword placement meant that they look like Jailbate?

In the past (say more than 6-7 years ago) in CTG I have seen girls clearly aged below threshold. I understand that 15 years ago it was a wild world. Now, there is a different and higher sensitivity. In the last years I have almost never seen any girl looking below say 20.
I met a doll looking as colegiala, and she turned out to be 19 from Venezuela. She was the youngest I met last time. Many are veterans, even returning to CTG for a second round.

Reloy has always been full of girls, even 10 years ago. From 11pm to 4am, pussy parade. I was used to start my night quest routine from Reloy, thn move to Elektra after 3 if I was still unaccompanied. Other places were Tu Candela or other that now I lost memory of their name.
I have never been a patron of LDV. Too much gringo-oriented.

Who remembers Giro Matto??

What changed is the security (Getsemani or even out of the walls were off limits after sunset) and the type of girls. I remember more locals and more Colombians.

Yes. As it was explained to me any non Colombian staying in a tourist establishment needs to present proof of their legal entry. It's just the law.

You want to register everyone. It's for your safety.
