Cartagena Reports

[QUOTE=BigB23;1630118]How is the Angeles Club, is it worth a try?[/QUOTE]Not a great selection. Might find a diamond in the rough (same with all the cheapo clubs in Cartagena). I think it was under 100 k so worthy of at least a look.

I'm going to Cartagen in December. I learned bunch of things from this forum about also I found maps to be extremely useful. I found this one: [URL]https://maps.google.com/maps/u/0/ms?vps=3&jsv=329b&hl=en&ie=UTF8&oe=UTF8&msa=0&msid=202115846141467908565.0004a0706d2b411420a83&dg=feature[/URL].

Does anybody have other maps or can confirm if the info on the map is not outdated?

I plan on getting Pueblito Playa hotel. As somebody said it was chica friendly. I found it on booking com and it seems good. Is there a better chica friendly option? Also I plan to stay few days in walled city. Is there a cheap but OK hotel with no chica fees or reasonable chica fees?

My friend told me that police raided and closed several places in Bosque and Bomba de El Amparo. And also that police is pushing girls out of Centro (Reloy)!

Anybody is there in these days and can confirm or correct?
How is the situation?

I will be there soon, and it would be really disappointing to discover that LDV is closed, girls disappeared, etc. :eek:

I'm going to be there in 1 week and want to find a couple prepagos during the day to drink and go to the beach with. What's my best bet?

Been to Medellin, Costa Rica and DR a bunch of times. But this is my first trip to Cartagena, so I feel unprepared LOL.

FYI - 1st post, but long time reader.

I will be there last week in October so will forward any information. I am glad that I kept my phone numbers from my last trip in July as it may be the only option. Sounds like the end of an era.

[QUOTE=BlackPage;1633832]Wait before saying that. Maybe it's just a thrill lasting a couple of days.[/QUOTE]I will also be there that week and a few beers with two pros many help me out and guide me in the right direction.

After a day or two of mongering, I will need some help. How and where can find the Vitamins. Is Cartagena just like every other country south of the US, where I can just go to a little farmacia and pick a few up?

Wow.

I saw the movie. The girl is not in danger but clearly under effect of drugs.

[QUOTE=BigB23;1633843]I had the same question. I know the guy at the beach can hook me up but what if I don't like his options.[/QUOTE]Casa Rocio has girls during the day. If the cruises and / or cargo ships are in during the day, literally all the girls will be working during the day. If not, then just a few. You can also get the girls' numbers at places like that to arrange stuff during the day. The girls in places like that are almost all from other parts of the country and are generally organized to cater to whoever has the money for them, more so than local girls.

[QUOTE=BigB23;1633843]I had the same question. I know the guy at the beach can hook me up but what if I don't like his options.[/QUOTE]You tell him such and HE presents more. Don't like those, you tell him such and HE finds more. After saying you don't like the dozen or so various choices presented while relaxing and enjoying drinks there in Playa Hollywood, etc. , you take a stroll up and down Laguito in the late afternoon / early evening (before and during dusk). Finding a suitable chica in the afternoon to early evening is a pretty easy thing to do for one who is relaxed, not in a rush, is able to go with the flow and is observant and aware and is able to interact with Colombianos. IMHO, guys who are in a rush, impatient, anxious, nervous, bothered with locals, etc. , tend to miss out on a lot of what may be available to them.

Just my dos centavos.

They will have several options to choose from, with some being more expensive. I can only vouch for the ones that are under $2, and didn't see a reason to try the higher priced ones.
