Posts: 4040City Hall is engaged in a big public relations campaign. There is nothing unusual about this in Medellin politics. Kiddie fiddlers are the recent hot topic and that is not so common although I can remember it flaring up in the headlines every three or four years or so. I was out of town for the weekend so I had a chance to see what's happening in immigration. I caught a break and arrived with only one other flight in the immigration hall. I noticed no difference in the immigration officer's procedures. There has always been anti pedo posters in the immigration hall. The only difference I noticed is there is now a wall sized poster of the same announcement that has been on bus stops and billboards around town the past couple of weeks. It's a picture of a guy walking with a woman amongst the statues in Botero Plaza with text that basically says "it's illegal, don't even think about it. " The immigration hall poster is the size of the entire wall. It is so big that you can't see it from the foreigner's line. You can see it from the Colombians' line. I think smaller posters on stands where the immigration line changes direction would get the message to visitors more effectively. I don't think that is the primary goal of the campaign. Just like the day the mayor showed up with a group of reporters and assistants to hand pamphlets to people on line, it's all about promoting an image of action.

Posts: 176La Isla first timer
Went to La Isla as my 1st night out in MDE, so I can't directly compare to other MDE spots.
Pros: It's familiar and simple to navigate. You get your Miami strip club style set up, so if you do stripclubs in US you should know the flow and routine well. If you want familiarity, you'll see plenty of Americans diverse. White bros, hood dudes, Middle East brahs, Asians. It's also a brothel, if you want to fuck you're only $$ away which guys value an easy controlled layup.
-Talent was fair but I was not floored. Pound for Pound I felt like Dolce Vita had higher percentage of hot girls, and the big Santa Clubs as a whole had more stunners. There were maybe 20% of the girls I thougt were bad as hell. There was a variety of ages and body types, natural vs enhanced.
Cons: It is an American experience, if you didn't want to feel like USA then don't go here. Plenty of lowest common denominator bros I try to avoid back home. Not wrong with enjoying themselves, but I prefer more intimate environments (ie girl at my place). Girls were sharkish, aggressive pushing for 2 K peso tips every 10 seconds of dance and cutting off the moment tips stop. I don't like you're not supposed to nab the girls you want, have to let them float. Which means the top girls may be snatched up a while. I think my 1 liter Absolut for table was like $150 plus fees, I forgot cover charges cost. I remember hearing an absurd quote for a room. To me to pay a premium and gamble that's good, to gamble she'll meet you later and gamble she's good in private is a lot. I take my chances with recommended girls or do Instagram girls (I feel like the ones with public visibility, making their locations known, regular posting, in the 5-15 K follower sweet spot).
I still recommend La Isla just to do it and get the temptation out. If you're seasoned in strip clubs you'll do fine, if you need a controlled environment for girls (with upsell) it's also fine, Gringo friendly even with no Spanish (but no reason not to try to learn).
-As for me, I won't be going back. Too similar to Miami, ATL with the customers and prices. Got a small but strong foothold of initial connections that I think "unlocks" a better exp in MDE.

Parque Lleras caters to gringos, so you'll find gringo prices. If you don't want gringo prices go where the gringos don't go. Of course you'll give up the convenience of being around English speaking people and your perceived security will almost certainly be lower.

Posts: 21Have you ever visited a club in the park?
Today marks my sixth day in Medellin. I've been to llears Park four times already. The staff at the club now know my face by heart and pretend to know me LOL But I still haven't gone to any clubs. I don't drink alcohol. The clubs in Yeras Park are not clubs, they are de facto *****houses. I have a question. Do the clubs in the parks also sell non-alcoholic drinks like in Agogo in Thailand?
Can you recommend a good club in the park?
When I look at Google Maps, all the clubs have negative reviews.
It says they scam and rip off tourists.
Can you recommend an honest club?
And you guys beware of El Centro, I was stopped by the police yesterday, I'll write more about it later.

Posts: 30Immigration Checkpoint
Just saw that Immigration Colombia is taking new measures at the immigration checkpoints in Bogota, Cartagena, and Medellin airports. They specifically talk about working with the US / other countries to forbid anyone with a bad past involving underage and / or sexual crimes. I think that's great, however, they also pointed out that they will be denying entry to those they deem as sex tourists. This doesn't bode well for those of us who are single travelers with many entries into Colombia as they will be skeptical from the start.
What are your thoughts?
Anyone flying in soon who can give a report of what happens at immigration?
