I am staying with at Parcero's penthouse in Cali. Parcero used to run the Laureles
Penthouse in Medellin. It is a great place to stay if you don't speak much Spanish or.
Wish to team up with other gringos to hit the casas. They take us to all the places
At night, but most of the time we (the other guests and I) just get the Cali list
From ISG and hit the casas one after another. After 2 days, we are still on page 1
Of the list.
Yesterday one of the places we hit was Karen's Lindas Chicas on Calle 51 #23-51, Barrio
Junin. Lots of Cali type girls at 25K 30 minutes or 41K per hour. They are open from
9 am until 12 at night. They have the most girls there at 3pm.

The buses at the airport stop in front of the information terminal by the door that is opposite the tourist information desk.
The buses are express with limited stops. The drop off to San Diego / El Poblado is the first stop I believe. So you don't lose much time except the taxis drive faster.
There was also a private, large SUV that ran the route from the San Diego / El Poblado dropoff. That was 12, 000 I believe.

Posts: 372LOL! My plan ticket was dirt cheap from dc to Medellin. Like $368. 00 on copa airlines. Direct to Cali was like 550. Plus I'm coming back to Medellin for 3 more day. My thoughts were party all night and sleep on the bus. I wake up and BAM I'm in the salsa capital of the world. No fun on the bus. LOL! But it would be cool if a meet some hot calena on the bus and have some fun.

Posts: 695Mixed feeling about airport collectivo
Usually I take bus. But they do not give you a ticket for your baggage when you ride the bus. This means that anybody who leave the bus before you can pick your baggage. Last time I went to the airport from Centro, somebody picked my bag in front of me at the airport. I told him that it was my bag. He looked around and found his bag, which looked similar to mine. I am not sure if I take the airport bus again.

Posts: 372Taxi!
my first time time in medellin was 2yrs ago and remember cabs being 60k 70k maybe a little less. i'm fluent in spanish and start chattin' up the driver. he tells me you can take the bus for under 10k. so my second time around last year, i took the bus. it was fine. drops you of a block away from the centro strip clubs. then you can take a taxi from there. but be careful at night very shady area. while riding the bus i saw only two backpackers. everybody else is colombian. keep in mind i'm a latino, so i kinda blind in. hope this helps. i'm going to medellin in a few days. i arrive around 5 and will be taking the bus. staying in the centro area for a night of fun then the next morning go to cali by bus. 8hr from medellin to cali. first time in cali for sport fucking!
hope this helps.
