Peter Solano, how long are you going to stay in Barranquilla?
Hello Peter Solano,
I will surely be in Cartagena and do you think it worth to go to Barranquilla and to stay there 1-2 weeks?
Do you live there?

I plan to stay 2 months in Colombia.
Answers to Surfer & Rob Hay
Surfer - no need to take a taxi from CTG to BAQ. There are auto rentados services that run between the cities, several times a day. Basically, an auto rentado is a mini-van where 6 passengers share the 150.000COP fare between the cities, meaning 25.000COP each way. Very safe (you register your ID for the trip, driver submits to MPs on military checkpoints), convenient (they come to your hotel and pick up the confirmed passengers at their residences), and timely (takes approx. 70-90 mins. total). You are dropped off where you you need to be in CTG/BAQ. Basically, same as a taxi, but much cheaper. I've taken them many times and would recommend them. Call before to confirm.
Here's the info:

Rob Hay - There is such a site that advertises the photos for the discos in BAQ. How do I know? I was on there with my ex-novia. Most Barranquillieras know about this site. Many chicas in the photos.

No.3
Barranquilla, Colombia
Can't get enough of Latin women? Then don't hesitate to visit this haven of dark-skinned, sexy mamasitas. Much safer and less touristy than other Colombian hotspots, Barranquilla offers a beautiful beach setting in which to meet the self-proclaimed friendliest ladies in the world.
There are great opportunities to meet these Latinas in the nightclubs and at daily beach parties, but Barranquilla is more than just wild times. Great nautical activities and hotel resorts mean that you can easily meet people outside of the club setting and bond naturally. Many men have met their future wives at this heaven-on-earth destination; just ask around.
Must-see: Visit Salgar Beach, where the ladies beach volleyball games will surely detract from the ocean view.:)
