Medellin Reports

[Elvis 2008]

I just got in. The lines were awful. I was at the front and had to wait only 15 minutes but there were like 200 people behind me. I think those folks had to wait 2 hours to get through. Customs is asking for address and phone number of where you are staying and were inputting it into the computer. I think they have done this before, but it seemed to prolong the trip. No one asked for vaccine card. Airline was more concerned about check mig than anyone in customs.

Flights to CTG are crazy high this holiday time $700+ and Spirit flight was full. I paid half that last month and flights in late January are half that as well.

It seems like customs has gotten to be a mess everywhere in Colombia. Thank God I was at the front.

Do you guys recommend renting a short term room (different from your own room) and if so what are the rates near el poblado / parque Lleras? I was planning to stay in a hotel near parque Lleras and bringing girls over to that room (I believe I would have to pay about $12 USD each time) from the street or through an escort service but now I am rethinking this just for security / safety / peace of mind.

In these areas do you guys have a set of hotels to use or do you follow girls to the suggested hotel? How about if in el centro during the day? What is the standard / safer option?

I was planning to hang around el centro during the day and spend time at night near parque Lleras / Poblado.

Are you being serious right now? This is a board to share information on where guys can go to get their rocks off. Did you actually give out information to over 500,000 members on this board in hopes that nobody would contact her to fuck? Was your purpose that everybody would see her and she would be flooded with money and no requests to fuck?

If you are posting a chick's information on here then 10 times out of 10 it should only be because she is willing to fuck for money (or free) or can connect people to chicks that fuck for money. I do not understand your purpose for posting this chick if it was not for her to be fucked by as many guys that wanted to fuck. This is not a charity website.

Mr. E, you know how these dudes are, getting their feelings all up in it. Want to brag about some chick, but don't want anyone else to contact and smash. SMH.

Last time in Medellin was a few years ago when the airport was under construction / remodeling and there was no duty free after arrival. Is there one now before exiting for a cab? I can also use the ones in Panama if not and anyone ever compare prices? I would like to buy a couple bottles of liquor that are not available in Exito or liquor stores that I've seen.

Also, Where is the Medellin sports bar and any reviews? I saw it mentioned somewhere but can't remember where. Would like to watch the Super Bowl.

Earlier this week I shared a link to a girl and within 24 hours I get a message from her asking if I post it on Facebook that she was a Prepago. The only place I shared that information was on this forum so someone here must have contacted her and treated her like a pro even though I implied she wasn't.

Now I understand why people rarely share contact information. Too bad I wanted to share more this week.

Pro tip: unless you're sharing a negative review, clear it with the chica before posting her info to a site like this.

Also, perhaps off topic. But where is the best location to view la Alborada tomorrow at midnight?

Iceland will be your best bet.

They are having technical difficulties with the Check Mig app and it's currently not required, at least last I checked. However, they are back to requiring the paper form they formerly used (or something similar). I assume for inbound passengers it will be handed out during the flight, as before. However, for outbound passengers they will need to give extra time to go through Migracion before boarding.

The Site is up, and running, kind of. It took me several attempts, and the system is very buggy. I got bumped four times with an error message saying the server wasn't working, also upon trying to advance to the next page after putting in my hosting address information the system would try to load, and then just go back to the same page not ever loading, this happened three times, and three times while filling in information on various pages, they would just disappear and go back to the previous page. They now have questions whether you have been to a list of African countries, but other than that, after about ten attempts, I completed the process, printed a copy, and got an E-mail immediately.

Technical difficulties for sure which started last week.

P.S. - tired of having to get COVID test every time I leave Colombia (I got once a month). Finally got so fed up that I wrote both of my Senators telling them how stupid it was that I had to waste time and money to get a COVID test when I have 3 vaccinations (not to mention that we have people cross the border every day with no COVID test).

You have to get a COVID test (they say) bcos the vaccine does not work to prevent you rom catching COVID. It is quite effective at the start, but very leaky after a few months.

The rules on land crossings are different to air crossings. This is bcos when you cross a border by air you are a risk to fellow passengers in the airport, taxies, buses, plane, restaurants etc. But when you cross a border in your own car, you are a risk to no one.

[Ranger327]

Probably the place next to Fase Dos, the strip club. Where you take a chica from the main part of the club.

That's it!! Gracias, Amigo!

Fantastic time with the Paisa Mia Khalifa in there tonight. Also I had a great conversation with mi taxista about the city today, plus he slowed past Parque Lleras to point out a known pick pocket and also flew back to the door in reverse when I didn't go in. It turns out I was 15 minutes early.

I used the Mig app yesterday (Sunday) and it worked fine. Left today. Airport was busy (post-Thanksgiving. Gringos going home) and the line to get the COVID test was longer than I've ever seen.

I did have to show my vaccination card at check-in for Spirit. I never once had to show it while I was in Medellin, though.

I rolled the dice and kept the reservation. Most I can lose is a couple hundred $ and I'm banking on this being overblown.

I think you made the right call, if you cancelled, and things are overblown which hopefully they are, the place you reserved or something similar might not be available on such short notice. And if there were a shutdown of the Country, you would get your money back.

Do not want to waste vacation time so contemplating a trip during the week of Christmas. Tickets have become sky high compared to last month.

Some comments in the thread suggest the Christmas week is a shutdown for the city. How bad is this holiday shutdown?

Would you recommend not making trip? I am thinking even if casas are shutdown or have limited hours, the FB and SA should work. What about Centro? Guessing much limited street scene.

Is it worth hitting Colombia during this time or should I postpone to another month?

If you're talking about the week between Christmas and New Year's, go to Cali. I think La Feria is live again this year (it was only "virtual" last year). It's a good time. Medellin will be dead that week.
