Bogota Reports

[DondeSea72]

Chapinero, in the 2nd half north within 10 min drive of Zona Rosa / T is where I'd recommend if you want to party with non pros. I had a great safe time in those clubs bars as a clear foreigner with weak Spanish. Tho unless you are Casanova may be tough to find a non pro relationship in 4 days as the 20's crowd were mostly in groups. If your girl has a legit ID, pro or not I'd imagine the hotel is ok if you're not blatant. Martial art is good, but can only do so much if you're sucker punched or 2+ guys. I'm somewhat built and box but was still high alert from Zona Rosa to SF. Situational awareness, that 5 seconds before is more important if you need to put space. As well as not sticking out or not looking lost. It can be jarring when that 1st group of meseros swarms you. I only drank water in SF as alcohol hurts my performance & kept interactions for the bill low.

I booked the hotel. I'm staying at the Four Seasons. I'm not bragging but I sleep on the floor at my house. No back issues or anything I just sleep better that way. Unless I bring a chica back to the hotel I'm sleeping on the floor at the Four Seasons. I talked with them and it's a $100 dollars to bring a guest. I go to Spanish Church in the US. I plan on attending Church somewhere in Bogota on the Sunday. I train Krav Maga and I don't have any illusions that I'm tough. I'm humble and if I get my ass kicked it wouldn't be the 3rd or 4th time. I'm worried about getting killed. I'm going to talk to the concierge as well I'm sure they can help me.

I'm going to try my Spanish and just be a gentleman. In my opinion Colombian women are the prettiest in the world. It's also pretty on the inside and out. Even if I don't hook up (I'm betting I will) maybe I can get their number and come back.

Thank you for your advice; duly noted.

Hello Team:

I'm going to Bogota in a month. I need help please. I'm looking to stay at a nice hotel that maybe doesn't allow Chicas but is in the happening area. My theory is that if I meet a girl I will just take her to a love motel. I'm not opposed to actually meeting a non pro and having a relationship. Yes I'm crazy. I will be in Bogota for 4 days. I'm looking to practice Spanish and learn about Bogota. I study a Martial Art and I'm going to contact a school in Bogota and request to take a class or if that's not possible at least watch. I'm cautious about Bogota and all the dangers but I live for adventure and I'm going hell or high water. I'm reading every post here and will circle back. I haven't drank alcohol in a while. But when I get to Bogota I'm going to party a bit, not stupid drunk and I don't do drugs. I believe that eagles fly alone but I'm not opposed to making friends.

Peace!!

I wrote that I don't know when I'll be back to Colombia, at best in 3 months and but more likely 6 months. Being there for only 3 days I wanted to make as much use as the time as possible. So it was burning in the sense of wasting, it was the purpose of the trip. And I'm glad I did because I ended up having a much better time at SF the 2nd time. I'm just giving my report. I have an fee free ATM card that I can use at any airport ATM when I land so there's no benefit for me to sit on $100.

What I tried to point out is the advantage of keeping enough pesos for the taxi ride from the airport. After waiting forever to get away from customs, I don't want to wait in line at a airport ATM. I have had to put up with locals using 2 or 3 ATM cards as each one is short of funds. You don't have to sit on $100. A little over $20 gets you a taxi from the airport.

You did a good job with your reports but don't take it so personal when fellows respond to your report.

Thank you, I have been preaching this over & over & I find it amazing the amount of people who have no clue about the movement of one currency v. Another. How hard is it to keep a couple 100 dollars worth of 4800:1 pesos in your passport folder or wherever for the next trip, especially if you know you are coming back!

I totally agree. I bring my leftover COP back home and use it on the next trip. I've got about $100 worth in my drawer right now. Next trip I have to get rid of the coins. Perhaps remember to carry a handful with me each time I go out and give them to the first mother holding a kid and asking for help that I see.

I'm not about to count out change to pay in cash for a beer!

I don't understand why you want to burn the last of your dineros. I just left MDE with about 350 K. On the next trip whenever you take it if you kept pesos then you could skip the ATMs at the airport.

Under 50 K for a taxi in Bog and 98 K for one in MDE. The bonus for me was I got my pesos at around 4800 for a dollar and now it is just over 4100 per buck. After all if you kept 100 K it would cost you a little over $20 US money.

First off, I can confirm this hotel Estelar Parque de la 93 is guest friendly. The first girl I met from photoprepagos said the reception gave her some trouble but every girl after that was fine. I thought the hotel was good quality for the price too.

I can also confirm Hotel Estelar Parque 93 seems guest friendly. I was just there for 7 nights, although I only slept there 6 nights. I paid the extra night so I could check in immediately upon my arrival around 7 AM and not have to wait for official check in. I've tried avoiding the extra days at other hotels and was denied check in that early every time except once and that was because I had status at that hotel.

I tend to wife up in advance online and I reserved for two (there is a single rate that is slightly cheaper). My girl showed up at 10 AM and hotel staff brought her to my room. I signed for her and that was that. No extra fees. I was with her every day and she spent nights, so not like I had a new girl every day or so, or multiple girls a day. Even had her roommate over for the last full day to enjoy the pool and later enjoy some dinner. No extra fees then either, although we did check in advance. We bought some drinks at the hotel and were not disrespectful of others, although we had the rooftop pool mostly to ourselves for the afternoon.

I found the hotel good for the price and obviously in a great location. My findings are quite similar to Trip Cyclone.

[Trip Cyclone]

Hello all, doing a tour of Colombia in June to get a feel for the place and see if I might want to spend more time there next year. I have experience mongering in SEA, Tijuana, and a couple other places. Excited to see how Colombia stacks up. Looking forward to trying the agencies, independents, spas and clubs. I'm headed to Bogota later this week, then Cartagena, and finally Medellin. I'll be staying at the Hotel Estelar Parque de la 93 for my time in Bogota, which from some of my prior research seems to be guest friendly and in a nice area.

That's all for now- I've lurked this forum for quite a while and absorbed a lot of the info here, so thank you, and hopefully I can contribute back with some of my own experiences shortly.

I didn't actually end up doing much mongering in Bogota as I wasn't feeling 100% (maybe the altitude?) But I thought I would update with what might be useful for the forum.

First off, I can confirm this hotel Estelar Parque de la 93 is guest friendly. The first girl I met from photoprepagos said the reception gave her some trouble but every girl after that was fine. I thought the hotel was good quality for the price too. I mostly used a scotiabank ATM nearby at Carrera 11 & Calle 92 to withdraw my pesos- it's secure and gives you your cash in 50 mils- as always decline the ATM conversion because your bank will give you a better rate. It's worth noting, I think the hotel will charge you if you see more than 1 girl in a day, although I didn't attempt this so can't confirm.

Secondly, if you're having some performance issues as I was, there is generic viagra available over the counter in Colombian pharmacies, ask for sildenafil cincuenta (50 MG), should only cost a couple bucks per pill.

Thirdly, something that surprised me about the agencies is how flaky they could be- some took hours to respond, one (Bogota Elite) didn't even respond at all (in retrospect, I think maybe because I contacted over whatsapp with a colombian number rather than a foreign number). I had the most luck with agencies by asking earlier in the day who was available rather than just requesting someone from their website.

My favorite girl in Bogota was a woman named Catalina with a bunch of Egyptian tattoos. I would link her ad but it doesn't seem to be up. If you like "alt girls" I can highly recommend!

Anyways, I'm in Medellin now, wish me luck.

"50 K for 30 and 60 K for kissing, BBBJ so 110 K for 30 min full service".

Sorry to be daft but guessing the actual sex is included in the initial 50 k?

Correct, every encounter whether massage parlor, street girl, club girl, escort included covered sex (CF&S).

[BourneAgain]

With my last day, the top 3 girls I wanted from Eroticas weren't missing. Which is probably for the best, because if Danna was working I likely would've burned my remaining monger budget for a couple hours of full extra. Around 1 pm went to Tantra, easy walk, quiet neighborhood, but I'd be aware at night. Saw 3 customers this time. Lineup was 15 girls, most were plain imo or had more an indigenous look, none that I really desired. Even choosing I was just trying to choose who would be the least disappointing. Then I saw the thick Venezuelan MILF with big fake tits with glasses and red lips. I really wanted something sportier, but she does thick MILF very well & was a fun performer. Still just went with 30 min instead of 60 min, 50 K for 30 and 60 K for kissing, BBBJ so 110 K for 30 min full service. Overall rate that exp 8/10 for value, performance.

Went to SF around 530 pm Sat and it was way more lively on the streets than Wed. While it's definitely in the thick of things, I didn't feel particularly unsafe as long as I used street smarts. Lots of street girls, plenty of young natural ones. None my type until I was surprised to see a casa across the back from Paisa I think, which had 4-5 pornstar bodies that I'd rate as 8 or 9's, quoted 80 k for 15. I returned later on but they were gone..... SEE ORIGINAL REPORT for the rest of post.

YEs-- DJ! Yesterday early evening was a Fantastic time for Streetie Sweeties (Not to mention clubs too) - as Usual for Saturday-- I am writing the 'Streetie Sweetie Chronicles' or post soon to be published.

Sure, I could spend less money but my goal was to have as many quality encounters as possible. I budgeted for it and a major reason I chose Bogota. I have zero use for COP after I leave. I will return debating MDE vs BOG eventually but no set trip for at least 4 months. My next trips are Toronto, Cancun, possibly Montreal vs AMS, Frankfurt, and Sao Paolo. So no use on sitting on cash despite the low USD equivalent. I have a Schwab ATM card so no ATM fees, I found bank atms easily in the airport where I'd rather take a large sum in a safe area near security guards and not worry about finding atms at Mt lodging. It's just my preference.

Another thing to note, I expected to see more Americans similar to as I read about Medellin Poblado being gringo district, but I rarely bumped into foreigners or strong English speakers outside of my hotel. Even the main street of SF clubs I expected to see some passport bros, but not one in the hundreds of people there.

I'm just putting down my report. There's a lot of content here, which is great, but with the search function not being the best it's overwhelming for me to map out every spot. I'm aware of Olimpo being nearby but the guys made no distinction of it since I ended engagements quick. If I was here longer or would make frequent trips I would scour the city but I found it reasonable to stick with the higher review, higher volume spots as ratings are subjective and I have very specific tastes. I want to limit every chance of getting burned with low quality talent.

Checked out LaCelestina site and wasn't impressed with the 4 girls that had available.

Will check out SF one more time to burn the last of my dinero, zero value to hold onto since my next destinations are Canada, Mexico, and Germany.

450 mil I. E 450,000 COP?

Yes, that is correct.
