Posts: 139Day 1 (quick update / general impressions)
I arrived at around 1 pm today. The flight, immigration line, taxi ride, and hotel check-in were all much faster than my trips to Cali and Medellin. I'm amazed at how many gringos are here. I can spot one on every street I walk down and I'm staying in El Centro.
I checked out the beach girls from about 2:30pm-3:30pm. The talent was good. I decided to pass since my hotel was so far away. Next time, I'll stay closer to the action. I checked out the daytime street action on Media Luna, but it's really bottom of the barrel. Worth seeing once.
Couple of positive surprises: 1. The heat didn't bother me too much today because of the breeze. Cali without the ocean breeze feels just as hot to me if not hotter. 2. I didn't get bothered too much by people trying to sell stuff. Walking down Av Sexta in Cali, I get pestered about the same amount.
Couple of disappointments: 1. The average girl you see in the mall or on the street hasn't been as good as Medellin or Cali. 2. Have to put up with dirty looks from foreign women who catch me checking them out. One thing I love about Colombians and Brazilians, they want you to look.
I'm heading out to LDV in a couple hours. I'll report tomorrow.

Posts: 36LDV prices
Hi,
I visited LDV one night. Just to explore given the no-visitors rule in my hotel.
Went around 11:30 pm, nice setup, several pretty girls and good vibe in the place.
More girls than fellows which is always good.
Beer price was 10k, perhaps overcharged by the bartender?
Talked to a couple of girls, one started with 200 k, then went down to 170k for 2-3 hours. She was a 7 or 7. 5 for me, was really tempted by the offer.
LAter talked to another that quoted 300 k for 1 hour, did not negotiate, she was pretty a 8. 5 but had not a friendly attitude as lady 1.
Since I will be staying for some months in CArtagena, I will be moving to an apartment next week, then I hope to be able to explore and report more details.
If anybody would like to meet, I would be glad to do so and share some beers and experiences.
The information in the board, the map and all are fantastic!
Hope I can help somehow with my report.
Greetings

Posts: 102Cartagena last week
spent a week in cartagena last week. beach and street chicas were asking for $50. 000 to $60. 000. decent talent and i sampled one. photo to follow.
good supply of chicas at ldv and cappricio (next door). asking $300. 000, but very negotiable.
in centro, sampled bananas, isis, queen's, and another one i can't remember the name of. bananas only had about 5 chicas, but a couple nice ones. the door guy does the negotiations, which is annoying. started at $200. 000 but came down to $180. 000 right away, then to $150. 000 as i was leaving. drinks were expensive and the bartender kept "forgetting" to bring my change back. not recommended.
queen's had 6 chicas, but three were really nice. asking $200. 000 plus $70. 000 take out fee, but they dropped the take out fee. good gfe just hanging out with the chicas and reasonable drink prices.
isis had about 20 chicas, a few nice ones. asking $200. 000. didn't negotiate to see where it would go. would go back here.
i had the most fun at chicas linda. 15 minute taxi ride, $15k cost. i didn't think the neighborhood was a problem. probably wouldn't go walking around there, but taking a taxi to and from wasn't scary. i tried to count the chicas and lost count at about 30 each time as they were coming and going. there were about 5 stunners and they get $60. 000 for 30 minutes up to $200. 000 for the night. beers were $5k and chica drinks were $10k for wine or $12k for liquor. the rooms are clean, nice beds with a headboard, showers that actually work and have warm water. i had a great time here and would return.
if skanky hoes and the smell of [CodeWord109] is your thing, go the to park on the other side of the clock at calle media luna. wrap up tight so your dick doesn't fall off. i didn't ask for prices, but anything over $10k is probably too much.
all the cheap hotels i stayed at were very chica friendly. they didn't even ask for cedulas.

The new place next door to LDV is Cappricio. Less chicas, same great talent, quoting $300. 000. I didn't try to negotiate.

They were asking for $300. 000 last week, but it was slow and they would negotiate down to $250. 000 pretty easily.

Posts: 102Semana Santa
Just returned. Many of the chicas I talked to (and did other things with) said they were spending Semana Santa with their families. One even said she was Catholic and and didn't work during the week for religious reasons. Go figure.

If you must have something new than go to CTG, but bring plenty of money if you want a real good time. Some may get by on less money, but a novice with no Wingman will pay thru the nose.
Hey it is only money and they are printing it every day so go have fun.

Posts: 18Some Negs of Cartagena
LDV girls are often regulars, smart, and they all know the prices to ask.
Heat is bad unless it is January or February.
The dollar has fallen in value.
Also there are alot of tourists and the vendors are pests like flies.

Posts: 1013Drinking in Cartegena
Can someone tell me how much it costs for a media bottle of Aguad in LDV / Electra? Paying 15k for a bottle of beer. Even more if you get a drink for a chica. Is insane for Colombia! I usually find it's cheaper to split a bottle with a wing.

-Read back through this forum over the next several weeks. Things really haven't changed drastically the last few years, so you could go back to 2007 or so and read forward. Doing so will give you a wealth of knowledge.
-Go to the Cartagena Lists thread and review World Travel's list / guide.
-After reading through posts herewithin for the past few years, review Hillbilly's Google Earth Map and you'll be able to somewhat get your bearings on the lay of the land in CTG so to speak.
-Solicit specific info through asking specific questions and communicating with other members. Create a dialogue just as you have with your initial post in the CTG thread.
-If you haven't already done so, consider subscribing with Jackson (site owner) so that you can exchange private messages with other members.
You do the above and you'll have considerable knowledge that you'll be able to apply and benefit from on the ground there in CTG.
Have fun!

First trip to Colombia coming up May 30. Going solo so I am a little anxious but I think this map will help a lot. I picked this trip over a return to the Oxygen Retreat in the DR. Of course this will be a lot less expensive and hopefully as much fun. Set up an appt with Juan for the visit.
Any advice to this newbie is appreciated.

Amigos. Does anyone know a decent guide in Cartagena. Hopefully someone with a car that we can rent for the night. I want to do normal Casa and club thing but also go on a few day trips to the surrounding areas. Staying at the Hilton. I'm sure they have someone that will overcharge me but I prefer to use a local guy that needs the money and benefits. If anyone wants to hook up for some drinks and fun send me a pm.
