Cartagena Reports

Reading through the Cartagena thread, I was wondering if I could have had better time in Cartagena if I would have picked Cartagena instead of Panama City recently. Don't get me wrong, I have been to Panama City a few times, and always enjoyed my time there from high price hot Habano chicas to the lower end young Bocateranea nextdoor type and everything in between. I have also been to Bogota and Medellin a few times each. I don't know why I never paid much attention to Cartagena. It looks to me Cartagena is a perfect mongering destination packed with tourist attractions like historic downtown and beaches.

From what I read Cartagena is filled with Colombianas from all parts of Colombia accompanied by the recent arrival of Venezolanas, same as Panama City. Working girls I met in Medellin and Bogota always told me they went to Cartagena for a vacation, I guess a working vacation. It is easy in Panama, Bogota or Medellin to find working chicas, it is even effortless in Cargagena it seems, they come to you. Prices is probably another advantage for TLD in Cartagena. It's $250-350 in Panama City even with girls I met at the low price joints. I read here 400 K is the going rate in Cartagena. Operating at lower cost in their home turf, these Colombianas are willing to settle for less I guess. And the Venezolanas will have to compete with what the Colombianas.

Never been to Dominican Republic either, but Catagena seems like a good destination and on top of my list.

[QUOTE=Hotrod10;2133355]First time to Cartagena and I'm doing my research. Normally the clock tower would be my first and only stop. I don't like the expensive clubs never have but after my many trips to Sao Paulo I am now into upscale brothels were you are given a choice of several girls and the rooms have a shower and bed. Can any member recommend a place like this near the city center. PM me if you like.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]There aren't any upscale brothels that I know of. The scene is nothing like Sao Paolo. In fact there are no brothels in any of the tourist areas. If you're going to stay in the "city center" then hopefully you know how to stay safe.

Palmetto Eliptic allows visitors for 20 k with no problems. Nice building.

Has anyone ever brought a girl from Medellin to Cartagena? I was thinking about flying a girl or two to CTG. Flights are on VivaColombia are pretty cheap. What's the going rate per day for the girls? I wouldn't have a clue! Not asking for comments or opinions suggesting not to do it, and not to bring sand to the beach. Just asking from help from anyone that has actually done so? What's the daily rate. Of course I'm paying the flight and all accommodations in CTG but the actual pay for the girl per day?? Thanks guys, Also want to thank everyone on this board as the information you guys have given is gold. Much appreciated. I try to post my experiences whether good or bad and try to contribute where and when I can. So I just want to say thanks!

I've stayed at the Eliptic. They did have a few roaches (not many). It's a bit of an older building.

Once I had a girl for "toda la noche" (since perhaps 9 pm until we woke up the next day). It cost me like Cop $ 600.000. So I believe that between Cop $ 700.000 to 1 million could be reasonable.

Where is Palmetto Eliptic located? Is it one of Juan's apartments?

Where is located Palmetto Eliptic? Is it one of the Juan's apartments? I am planning to visit Cartagena in late March but I know that some acquaintances will be around laguito area.

I was shooting Storyland EDM festival in Santa Marta a few weeks ago and flew a stunner in. 4 days 3 nights at killer ocean view place in Taganga. Super open minded and wanting to learn 21 year old. I created a anal fiend for whoever finds her next. No charge. I paid for everything brought her some gifts and took her shopping. My spanish is decent, she even speaks excellent English.

Got you! All in all I do not think I will do that. Just seems like to many risks and the demand for money could he high, that's funny you guys mention they demand for money as the trip gets closer and I feel like that's on point because Muniz buddy had the same experience! Def will not do this I was just wondering thanks.

Anyway, don't advise bringing sand to the beach and all that. It never quite worked out for me.

Hello all,

And first off, thank you all for all this valuable info. Have been lurking for a little bit and gathered as much as I could. Me and a friend will be in Cartagena 2/6-2/10. It will be both our first time and we actually don't speak Spanish. I have been to Sosua multiple times and know most of the do's and don't's. My friend actually booked the trip before me and is staying at the allure chocolate and since it was fully booked, I booked an airbnb close by. Read about the various spots, particular times to visit, and utilizing tinder. I was trying to find, but can't seem to locate. I read that we should stay within "the walls". Where exactly is the outline for the walls? LOL. I'm actually staying in an airbnb about 5 minutes away from allure and away from the clock tower. Practically from Allure and crossing the "bridge?" to the opposite side. Trying to figure out where not to wander off to. Any other advice or info would be appreciated on excursions, touristy locations to see, etc. My intention is 30% tourist and 70% mongering.

Thanks in advance.

Back in Cartagena. Monday Night. Took a stroll around 9:30 by the Hard Rock & the clock tower. No Cinderellas, maybe a bit too early. Took a detour down a side street and found myself at Isis. No entry fee, 15 girls working, all looking very bored, staring at their phones, 16-18 k for a beer.

Then at 10 o'clock about 15 more girls came in.

Dolce Vita completely empty at 10 pm.

5 girls by 11:30 pm. 300,000 for an hour or at least according to the one girl I asked. Closer to midnight more girls arrive near the Clock tower, maybe 20-25 working, most are asking 200,000 for an hour. No expectations for a Monday night but I saw more quality the last time I was here. If any of you guys are in town next weekend and want to watch the Super Bowl, the ClockTower Pub & the Hard Rock are showing the game.

I'm looking to do a day trip to an island. Looking for lively place to chill eat drink and meet or take girls with. I've heard horror stories about boat trips to Rosario island. So can someone please recommend which island would be worth it. Also please recommend any speed boats / yachts rentals that are reliable. Or if there are any yacht parties with covers I do not mind joining those for a fee. Thanks in advance.

You won't meet hookers at any of these places. You need to bring them with you. Playa Blanca is a nice beach with lots of tourists and 10 x the number of touts than the beaches in Bocagrande.

Choices:

(1) Get to know a chica and have her bring her prima (cousin) or some other person out with you to Playa Blanca. That extra person can watch your stuff when you go into the water with her.

(2) Rent a boat to take you to these places with chicas. If you're going to rent a boat expect about 1. 5 million pesos just for the boat itself. You should ask to stop in Gruta Azul which is a very chill quiet beach on an enclosed island. Grab a jet ski, take your chica out to one of the other islands and fuck her like a wood pecker behind a tree or some shit.

Good luck.

I am learning more with each trip but there is so much to learn. I have to say Cartagena is an easy place to get hustled if you don't do your homework. My first trip was a disaster but my last the best ever. The weather wasn't too hot and no rain like my trips in October when it can rain everyday. I used two separate ATMs and two different cards the first two days to take the max I could get and compare the front and back end transaction fees for my next trip to determine what card and machine to use. I got fucked by the banks my last trip so be aware of the fees. I also noticed this trip the better exchange is in the old city as opposed to Boca Grande and El Laguito and from what I have read in banks its also higher but I didn't have time to try the banks. I stayed at the Hilton and had an apartment inside Marinare for the possible overnight chicks. I found it very convenient within walking distance and I felt sure my shit wouldn't get stolen because I do not trust anyone in Colombia especially the Paisas I end up with normally! You will find a liquor store and pharmacy on your way. I found out its 60.00 to register a girl at the Hilton and you can also bring a chick to the pool area for free but supposedly she can't go upstairs. If your discrete you can sneak her up through the upper pool stairs make a left and get to the second floor elevator lobby.

The first girl I picked off the Clock Tower was a Paisa maybe 23 Friday night. I didn't have to look to hard there were 25-30 women by 11 PM. She was a 9 looks and all natural body but 0 personality and wanted extra tips for everything. The girl was out of her mind and actually quoted me 1 million pesos for a BBCIM she didn't allow any photos of her face. I managed to talk her into BBBJ for a 100 K tip negotiated during sex, a real turnoff and part of the reason I have started to hate Paisas but partly my fault for not making it clear what I wanted before hand. In total 330 k including the short-time hotel. It wasn't a bad start but I was looking for my unicorn and continued my hunting that night. It was after 12 and the Tower was getting more crowded with working women of all shapes and sizes. In minutes I find another spinner and my friend grabs a girl from Cali and we are off to the apartment same negotiated price for the hour was 200 K. I didn't haggle too much but could have. She was from Venezuela and they tend to negotiate more because of the situation in there country. I had her for the whole hour in 4 or more positions all covered including the BJ. She was fun but would negotiate any extras.

The second day Saturday morning called room service, Tinder a local girl from the coast. The best value I find is on Tinder 150 K and the taxi if I really like her. ID say she was 20 full of energy and a great set of double the tits all natural. The BBBJ was offered without negotiation and I have to say she really enjoyed every part of the sex and I could have had her all night for 400 K. We arranged for Sunday night but I found something better and didn't call her back. In the afternoon I chilled by the pool shitty drinks and sub par food. I bought a bottle of Don Medellin 45000 pesos and fixed the drinks. I invited a girlfriend to the pool for company that day. We had met on Tinder a few months before my trip. She hasn't said she is working but I think 9-10 girls on Tinder work. We didn't fuck because she brought her kid to play in the pool. That night I had a number that I collected from a tall Venezuelan girl Friday blonde with a cute face and kind of timid like I like them. I called her to the apartment agreed 220 K for the taxis and her time. It was fun she opened up after a while and really liked to fuck didn't do any bareback or ask for it my spider sense was telling me not too.

Sunday and Monday was tourist day mostly Cafe Del Mar sunset and some souvenirs. I slept most of the evening and woke up around 9 headed to the Clock Tower around 10:30. We wandered around for a few before I saw the blonde again and snatched her up for a second session at the apartment. I had a great breakfast at the Movich hotel lobby Monday and dinner and drinks that day Montesacro and Alquimico highly recommend both. That night was my last chance to find the unicorn. I was looking through the crowded tower mostly touts and a few 5-6 looking girls but nothing really outstanding because it was before 12. I was about to lose hope when the buddy I brought pointed out the short spinner with olive skin dressed to impress. I asked her how much 200 K she would negotiate and I didn't know if after dinner and the drinks had enough for the cab, chick and short time because I had checked out of the apartment already. I ended up getting her number and went to check my cash and buy a water. I told my buddy the situation and he had 200 K to help out saving the day. I quickly snatched up Diana 20 years old from the mountains just outside of Bogota. The girl was new clean and I could have eaten her for hours and she would have let me. The sex was average but she offered BBBJCIM. She wasn't that skilled at sex but her looks and attitude made up for it. I also was lucky enough she took a few photos of herself naked and I took some dressed afterwards. The sad part was I didn't have anymore time or the apartment anymore. We would have went to the Hilton if I didn't have an early flight because this girl was worth the 60.00 fee. She quoted 600 K for toda la noche. I understand her pricing in a way because it was early and she was hot but still I would have negotiated for sure. My apologies for my shitty grammar but hope you all still enjoy and find my post useful information. If you like PP and do not go to Cartagena I feel sorry for you Its and addicting place but do your homework or you will be the one getting fucked not the one fucking.

Hello,

I'll be going to Cartagena and Santa Marta on the way to Tayrona national Park. I'm kind of worried about the burundanga issue.

Is finding a girl off mileroticos a safer option than meeting girls by the clock tower, beach or through touts?

How much of any issue is this drug?

Any suggested precautions?

Covering my food and drink seems pointless if she could easily get me when I'm licking her tits.

Thanks,

Jack.

[QUOTE=TheTallMan;2131930]Wow 50-100 at the clock tower, looks like the holiday season is over and the putas need pesos, what was the quality of these girls? Many Venezuelans as others report?

TTM.[/QUOTE]Some: not as many Venezuelans as I have been told would have been in later months because they go back home in Dec / Jan / Feb.

Quality varied, some were stunners, overall better than when I used to visit years ago and never seen any girls inside the tower in the past.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2130656]Yes. Bocagrande and the old city (centro) are safe. Just do not leave the old city walls at night and you'll be fine.

You will need to bring your own.

Go to Playa hollywood and ask for Jason. He'll set you up. He speaks English.[/QUOTE]Getsemani near old city is completely safe at night. I walked all around there no problems. Plenty of great bars, I actually thought there was a bit more to do there.

[QUOTE=Jhc1976;2135984]
How much of any issue is this drug?
[/QUOTE]I've been going to Colombia for more than two years very frequently and have not been drugged yet. It really depends on where you go. It's unlikely to happen in Cartagena in the tourist areas. It's more likely to happen in Bogota.

[QUOTE=Jhc1976;2135984]

[/QUOTE]Then wash them before you fuck'them if you're really worried. Otherwise, it's really not such a big issue. No clue about things in Santa Marta.

Here is some info and photos. I also did some snorkeling. There is a bar in the pool.

There are two main destinations you will be sold by the local touts:

(1) Rosario Islands. Plural here. There are multiple resorts. The one that World Traveler posted about I've been to. It's alright but to get to a sandy beach it's a few minutes walk. At the resort itself the beach is rocky with a ladder coming off a concrete platform. You need to take a boat out to get to these islands.

(2) Isla Baru: typically the destination is Playa Blanca which is a nice sandy beach with a lot of tourists and touts. My own preference is to head to Playa Blanca. You can access this beach by boat or by bus. I recommend boat as its quicker.

Other destinations:

(3) There are other island trips including some that are overnight. Some might be pricy depending on the level of the resort. I've only seen photos of them and haven't gone myself.

(4) Cholon: this is also in the Rosario Islands. There's no resort here. You either show up yourself in your own boat or you get a ticket on a boat that's shared by people. I've gone only with my own transportation. Cholon is party central especially later in the week (Thursday to Saturday). The only people who show up are people who want to party and have a good time. It's much more expensive.

(5) Gruta Azul: I believe this is also in Rosario and near Cholon. I don't believe anyone shows up here unless you have your own boat. VERY chill. Few touts. Maybe a handful of tourists at most. If you want to bang your chica there are nearby beaches you can jet ski to with ease and not a soul in sight.

None of these destinations will have hookers available to you. You typically take them with you.

Hi I will be in CTG at the end of March and mostly see everyone talking about the clocktower square and later on at night. Is there any massage places like in MDE for daytime fun?

[QUOTE=Jbj64;2136426]Hi I will be in CTG at the end of March and mostly see everyone talking about the clocktower square and later on at night.

For daytime action you either go to beaches like playa Hollywood and get chicas from there, or you have your numbers from the night before.

Hello I'll post this to the blog section. Please review and give me your thoughts.

Cartagena Mongering FAQ.

[B](1) Where should I stay in Cartagena?[/B]

The tourist zone begins in the old city, sometimes referred to as "Centro" or "Centro Historico. " It extends south into Bocagrande, then Laguito and Castillo Grande. Bocagrande is very quiet at night and a great place to get an apartment facing the beach. There is also an area caled Getsmani which is south east of the old city. It has been gentrified as well. Bocagrande is the most expensive area from what I've gathered -- despite that it is still quite cheap where you will find nice apartments for less than 90 USD a night.

[B](2) When should I go?[/B]

[B]High season:[/B] December to April (up until the end of Easter week called Semana Santa). Many Colombians vacation in December and January. Then come back for Easter. Expect to pay more for accomidations at this point. February and March are better high season months if you want cheaper rates.

[B]Low Season:[/B] April (right after Semana Santa) until August. The number of chicas drops drastically. Where you would encounter fifty hookers in a night you will only encounter a dozen during low season.

[B]Mid Season:[/B] Starting in August until end of November the number of hookers begins to grow. Many hookers will come during this time to save money for their holiday season. This is actually a bit of a sweet spot if you're looking to save on flights and accomidations since the rates are lower.

[B](3) Where do I find the hookers?[/B]

Unaccompanied women in the old city after 11 pm are almost always hookers. If there's a man in the group or if they're not dressed up then don't approach at all. The best times to encounter them is Thursday to Saturday night. Mondays are absolutely the worst days to go hunting for hookers. The old city is almost empty after 11 pm on a Monday.

[B]Daytime: [/B]Playa Hollywood is known for always having a few hookers who come out to sun bath. Any tout / waiter can hook you up.

[B]Tinder:[/B] many hookers advertise on tinder. Your mileage may vary as you're using the Internet.

[B]Nighttime:[/B] The southern entrance to the old city is called the Torre De Reloj (Clock tower plaza). After 10:30 pm it is ground zero for hookers. Most will do short time for 200 k.

[B]Isis:[/B] a strip club found in the old city. Usually opens around 9 pm and is staffed by 10 pm. Most expensive option. 300 k to take a girl to a local love hotel, or 700 k for all night.

[B]La Dulce Vida:[/B] A hooker bar on the same street as Isis. Chicas start showing up around 11:30 pm. Many of these chicas were probably already at the Clock Tower Plaza.

[B]Elektra:[/B] After hours club. Doesn't really get going until 3 am. Lots of hookers will go to pick up more customers.

[B]Other venues:[/B] Clubs in the old city will either tolerate hookers, or charge them a fee, or outright ban them.

[B]There is one golden rule about night time action:[/B] they will always start or end their night at the Clock Tower Plaza.

[B](4) What do hookers charge?[/B]

200 k pesos will get almost any of them for an hour or two. Some may quote 300 k. Anything more is a ripoff unless you're getting them all night. Then it's customary to pay for 2 hours (or 400 k).

[B](4) Are there brothels in Cartagena?[/B]

Brothels are found outside of the tourist area and are not recommended unless you know what you're doing. This includes strip clubs like La Isla and Pley Club. If you're reading this FAQ you are probably new to the Cartagena so do yourself a favor and don't leave the tourist zone.

[B](5) How do I exchange my money? Where do I get the best rate?[/B]

The best rate is usually from your bank. Use an ATM card (an actual bank card) without fees on international withdrawals and ALWAYS select the amount in Colombian pesos. This will give you the best rate. Your other option is to go to a currency exchange but they usually don't have the best rates. There is a currency exchange at the airport, however don't expect a good rate.

[B](6) Where can I find nice beaches or things to do during the day?[/B]

Bocagrande, Laguito and Castillo Grande all have beaches but the waters are connected to a river so it does not have that beautiful azure color you come to expect in the Caribbean.

For destinations outside the city by car, bus, or boat:

[B]Rosario Islands. [/B]Plural here. There are multiple resorts.

[B]Isla Baru:[/B] typically the destination is Playa Blanca which is a nice sandy beach with a lot of tourists and touts.

[B]Cholon:[/B] this is also in the Rosario Islands. There's no resort here. You either show up yourself in your own boat or you get a ticket on a boat that's shared by people. I've gone only with my own transportation. Cholon is party central especially later in the week (Thursday to Saturday). The only people who show up are people who want to party and have a good time. It's much more expensive.

[B]Gruta Azul:[/B] I believe this is also in Rosario and near Cholon. I don't believe anyone shows up here unless you have your own boat. VERY chill.

There are casinos, bus tours, and much more to be had. Many touts will be able to help you for a tip to arrange these things.

[B](7) Where do I find chica friendly apartments or hotels?[/B]

Most hotels will not be chica friendly. You can use love motels which charge by the hour. There are plenty of these in the old city and the chica will take you to one if you ask her. Otherwise whether its on airbnb or booking through a rental agency you need to ASK ASK ASK and make sure the rules of the building allow visitors and what the hours are for visitors. Many buildings will issue wristbands to residents so they can be easily distinguished when entering. No one here can tell you with certainty where to rent as all it takes is one person to cause a problem at a building for the rules to suddenly change.

This is simply the best & by far the most informative report on Cartagena that I have read to date. Unfortunately I had to leave yesterday but I did visit LDV, Isis, & Elektra. YippieKayay, I owe you a beer or two then next time I'm in Cartagena. Regarding the girls, if you see someone you like, don't wait to approach. The hottest girls I saw were gone in less than 30 seconds as soon as they walked through the entrance of the Clock Tower & they never returned. One absolute stunner on Thursday night walked in at 10:30 pm & she was gone by 10:31 pm. I got up from my seat & started to approach but another guy beat me to it.

[B](1) Where should I stay in Cartagena?[/B]

The tourist zone begins in the old city, sometimes referred to as "Centro" or "Centro Historico. " It extends south into Bocagrande, then Laguito and Castillo Grande. Bocagrande is very quiet at night and a great place to get an apartment facing the beach. There is also an area caled Getsmani which is south east of the old city. It has been gentrified as well. Bocagrande is the most expensive area from what I've gathered -- despite that it is still quite cheap where you will find nice apartments for less than 90 USD a night.

[B](2) When should I go?[/B]

[B]High season:[/B] December to April (up until the end of Easter week called Semana Santa). Many Colombians vacation in December and January. Then come back for Easter. Expect to pay more for accomidations at this point. February and March are better high season months if you want cheaper rates.

[B]Low Season:[/B] April (right after Semana Santa) until August. The number of chicas drops drastically. Where you would encounter fifty hookers in a night you will only encounter a dozen during low season.

[B]Mid Season:[/B] Starting in August until end of November the number of hookers begins to grow. Many hookers will come during this time to save money for their holiday season. This is actually a bit of a sweet spot if you're looking to save on flights and accomidations since the rates are lower.

[B](3) Where do I find the hookers?[/B]

Unaccompanied women in the old city after 11 pm are almost always hookers. If there's a man in the group or if they're not dressed up then don't approach at all. The best times to encounter them is Thursday to Saturday night. Mondays are absolutely the worst days to go hunting for hookers. The old city is almost empty after 11 pm on a Monday.

[B]Daytime: [/B]Playa Hollywood is known for always having a few hookers who come out to sun bath. Any tout / waiter can hook you up.

[B]Tinder:[/B] many hookers advertise on tinder. Your mileage may vary as you're using the Internet.

[B]Nighttime:[/B] The southern entrance to the old city is called the Torre De Reloj (Clock tower plaza). After 10:30 pm it is ground zero for hookers. Most will do short time for 200 k.

[B]Isis:[/B] a strip club found in the old city. Usually opens around 9 pm and is staffed by 10 pm. Most expensive option. 300 k to take a girl to a local love hotel, or 700 k for all night.

[B]La Dulce Vida:[/B] A hooker bar on the same street as Isis. Chicas start showing up around 11:30 pm. Many of these chicas were probably already at the Clock Tower Plaza.

[B]Elektra:[/B] After hours club. Doesn't really get going until 3 am. Lots of hookers will go to pick up more customers.

[B]Other venues:[/B] Clubs in the old city will either tolerate hookers, or charge them a fee, or outright ban them.

[B]There is one golden rule about night time action:[/B] they will always start or end their night at the Clock Tower Plaza.

[B](4) What do hookers charge?[/B]

200 k pesos will get almost any of them for an hour or two. Some may quote 300 k. Anything more is a ripoff unless you're getting them all night. Then it's customary to pay for 2 hours (or 400 k).

[B](4) Are there brothels in Cartagena?[/B]

Brothels are found outside of the tourist area and are not recommended unless you know what you're doing. This includes strip clubs like La Isla and Pley Club. If you're reading this FAQ you are probably new to the Cartagena so do yourself a favor and don't leave the tourist zone.

[B](5) How do I exchange my money? Where do I get the best rate?[/B]

The best rate is usually from your bank. Use an ATM card (an actual bank card) without fees on international withdrawals and ALWAYS select the amount in Colombian pesos. This will give you the best rate. Your other option is to go to a currency exchange but they usually don't have the best rates. There is a currency exchange at the airport, however don't expect a good rate.

[B](6) Where can I find nice beaches or things to do during the day?[/B]

Bocagrande, Laguito and Castillo Grande all have beaches but the waters are connected to a river so it does not have that beautiful azure color you come to expect in the Caribbean.

For destinations outside the city by car, bus, or boat:

[B]Rosario Islands. [/B]Plural here. There are multiple resorts.

[B]Isla Baru:[/B] typically the destination is Playa Blanca which is a nice sandy beach with a lot of tourists and touts.

[B]Cholon:[/B] this is also in the Rosario Islands. There's no resort here. You either show up yourself in your own boat or you get a ticket on a boat that's shared by people. I've gone only with my own transportation. Cholon is party central especially later in the week (Thursday to Saturday). The only people who show up are people who want to party and have a good time. It's much more expensive.

[B]Gruta Azul:[/B] I believe this is also in Rosario and near Cholon. I don't believe anyone shows up here unless you have your own boat. VERY chill.

There are casinos, bus tours, and much more to be had. Many touts will be able to help you for a tip to arrange these things.

[B](7) Where do I find chica friendly apartments or hotels?[/B]

Most hotels will not be chica friendly. You can use love motels which charge by the hour. There are plenty of these in the old city and the chica will take you to one if you ask her. Otherwise whether its on airbnb or booking through a rental agency you need to ASK ASK ASK and make sure the rules of the building allow visitors and what the hours are for visitors. Many buildings will issue wristbands to residents so they can be easily distinguished when entering. No one here can tell you with certainty where to rent as all it takes is one person to cause a problem at a building for the rules to suddenly change.[/QUOTE]

So in response to herbs in Cartagena, I also have experienced only bad quality so far. I smoke regularly at home and good quality. The last time in August I also noticed mine smelled almost of gas. It was very sticky and hit harsh. That area is supposed to have great stuff. Kings of cannabis did a vice TV special in Santa Marta looking for certain strains and saw fields. I have a tout get me some or a girl that does smoke. I am gringo haha.

I have been to Cartagena maybe 5-6 Times now. First about 10 years ago, but the last 4-5 in the past 2 years. I still consider myself a rookie. I know to rent from Juan. Check if guests allowed etc. Tinder does work good. However as I'm planning a trip in 3 weeks I am not noticing much talent?? I have a question. Any tips on how to pick the freaks! I like a girl who's wild. No limits. Not shy, but I usually end up picking the stunner and she's usually too prissy. Do you really ask all the specifics? Maybe girls working alone rather than in a group?

Do yourself a favor and toss your drugs away before going home. They usually have checkpoints and will search both you and the chica.

Any recommendations on a apartment that will allow multiple guests for one person? I usually rent from Juan but he is telling me they are now one guest per person. No threesomes?

[QUOTE=Rzrfl69;2138709]Any recommendations on a apartment that will allow multiple guests for one person? I usually rent from Juan but he is telling me they are now one guest per person.

[QUOTE=SeanEZ;2139363]And then you both spend months / years in Colombian Jail.

I've been searched a number of times over the years. The most memorable occasion was on a nudist beach in Parque Tayrona when a soldier came (in uniform) and looked into our bags. Never a problem.

I wonder if anybody knows of an actual case where a tourist has gone to jail for posession of a small quantity of anything for personal use. I suspect most cases wouldn't go further than a night in detention and / or a fine or a bribe.

I suspect most cases wouldn't go further than a night in detention and / or a fine or a bribe.[/QUOTE]There were a couple of posts last year about guys being detained for possessing drugs.

I have two stories to share:

One was when I was chatting with a fellow traveler flying out of Colombia. He mentioned some ten years ago when he was younger and more adventurous having gone out and bought some pot in Cartagena from a local dealer. He was immediately picked up as he was walking back to his place and encouraged to pay a fine in US dollars. I forget the amount but the gentleman didn't have it on him so they dragged him back to the police station where he finally got in touch with a friend of his to bring the funds down. Moral of the story: don't expect rule of law. I asked him if he ever saw a judge during the ordeal and he just laughed and shook his head.

My other story comes from a chica who I see regularly down there. She was going back to Bocagrande late at night with a guy who had picked her up. At a check point, which are usually setup at night, they stopped and searched both of them. He had some cocaine on him and the cops immediately placed him under arrest. They then told him, on the spot mind you, that the fine was 400 US dollars. He didn't have as much and they kept him on the side of the road for an hour or so until he got a friend of his to come down with the money. The chica went home without getting paid since the guy was so distraught he just wanted to get the fuck out. Again, moral of the story is prepare to get fucked if you're caught.

If you are going to do it then do it exactly where you bought it and toss that shit away.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2139695]Again, moral of the story is prepare to get fucked if you're caught.[/QUOTE]A $400 stupid tax is actually getting off easy.

Personal drug use / quantities are not criminal / nor can you be fined. Guy got taken for a chump. End of story.

As Yippie has indicated, what the law (s) says more times than not does not matter in Colombia when you are detained by a police officer. The law is between that officer and you at that particular moment in time.

Does anyone have stories of relations of a longer term fizzling out and going bad with some of these chicas?

It seems some of my friends have befriended ladies and the ladies go off the rails and freak out on them every so often. Makes me think it may be better to not allow for "feelings".

They all freak out every so often, LOL.

And they're latinas to boot!

Generally hot in the sack, and hot blooded in life, so there ya go, more occasional freak outs, LOL.

The feelings come natural if there's some chemistry.

Just enjoy and let it flow.

Not to mention you're sharing her with everyone else. I used to be susceptible to "feelings" when I first started mongering but within my first year quickly learned. You're better off going to latin dating sites if you want that.

The best advise I got from a friend is that romantic relationships are generally hard. They tend to fizzle out. Imagine how quickly they fizzle out with a hooker? Half the women you meet in this business have mental health issues, the other half are just better at coping with mental health problems.

A late bloomer to the hooker scene! She probably got tired of banging her uncle and a bunch of barrio rats for free when she could bang a bunch of gringos for money she never thought was possible.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2128561]

One hooker I met told me she started at 21 when she overheard her uncle talk about Cartagena at the dinner table. She literally conspired with her friends to book bus tickets and go out there on the grueling eight hour bus trip to sell her ass.[/QUOTE]

I stayed at Holiday Inn Express Boca Grande for six nights. I asked for their guest policy and they told me they allow visits during daytime without a fee but by nightime it is 250,000 pesos per visit fee. Room cost was $63 per night. After 6 days in Medellin hotel Dorado la 70 which has harder than rock mattress it was positive change to confort.

During my stay I took a 18 yr old girl from Venezuela to a 15 k cabana. I agreed with her for 200 k which was the same I was quoted by five girls before her. During my interaction with the girl in La Torre del Reloj plaza I asked for her phone number and when she entered the digits in my phone we found that I already have her number from Tinder. I observed several of the girls there are my Tinder contacts too. I read my conversation with her and observed she quoted 150 k for her services. After a minute discussion we agreed to a 150 k. Sex was average, covered BJ, no GFE, but she has a nice attitude and was fun to have plus has a nice pettite body.

I spent the rest of my stay with a girl I met in Getsemani. She lives in Medellin but spent two weeks in Cartagena for a relative's wedding. I asked her a question about a place and that was the beginning of the best part of my trip. We had drinks together and although I paid most of our expenses together she paid some of her expenses or helped to cover some of the bills providing 5 or 7 k when there was no change available for a 50 k bill. It was GFE at it's best. She was born and raised in Cartagena and her curvaceous body are evidence of it as costeñas tend to be curvier than paisas. She is currently studying in Medellin. I am going to see her again here in Medellin in a few hours. She returned to Medellin in a 12 hour bus trip. Ugg.

So I was alone for the night and went to Plaza del reloj on Saturday. This time the atmosphere was diferent. Six migration police cars including a couple of minivans. About 30 policeman / woman where there. I observed while they registered Venezuela working girls in search of their cedulas. As I observed around a few girls that were arriving to the plaza made a 180 when they saw the police officers. Some were advised by the guys that work in the plaza selling beer or la hormiga culona or anything to go away. I messaged my Venezuela amiga and told her about it. She thanked me because she has no cedula. The told me that migration officers were there the night before too.

El Mechanico.

Was in Cartagena last weekend, had a good time. Met some Americans that was going to Barranquilla for carnaval and went with them but the night that we were in Cartagena there was about 75 girls at the clock tower. Saw some cuties there, most were asking for 200 k. Stopped by LDV and saw a bunch of hotties in there. Well maybe it was because it was dark but they looked hot. Didn't talk to any for prices.

Went to Barranquilla then back Sunday night for Cartagena. Waited around the clock tower for a couple hours, some girls but not my type, stopped by LDV around 11:30, only like 2 girls in there. Went back to clock tower and spotted this one hottie that spoke English. Took her back and made sweet love to her. I will definitely be back. It does feel a lot safer than Medellin. A lot of cops around. Think I got food poisoning from the street food. Very hot, and touts at the beach will screw you over and annoying the shit out of you.

Evidently a show on Colombian TV called "Septimo DIA" aired on Sunday with an episode on Cartagena and the huge number of prostitutes. According to the chica who told me this they even had footage of the Clocktower plaza. I haven't seen the video myself.

In any case I'm going to be down starting this weekend. I told one of my regular chicas down there I'm consuming lots of milk to get ready. She told me I'd need a cow, hahahaha.

TTM.

Landed in CTG during Super bowl Weekend. Friday night. Stayed at Juan's apartment in El Laguito. (Best choice made ever, thanks to those in this forum for recommending his apartment.

Got in Cartagena pretty early 11 am. First things first, got my drogas delivered to me enough to last me during my stay. It was still early on the day but wanted some action. Hit up a tinder escort chick came by for 1 hour for 150 k, body was natural and big ass, fake was alright. Good sex, Awesome GFE, CBJ (asked for 50 k more for BBBJ.) At night hit up the clocktower, picked up a nice chick, she was new to town a student from Medellin, went to nearby hotel as I didn't want to head back to hotel. 20 k for the room, 150 k for her. She was very timid and not into it no GFE so it was whatever. Then around 11 pm started hitting up LDV but was empty, then hit up ISIS which is more like a stripclub with real dimes but expensive wasn't too crowded. Ended up picking up 2 chicks with my friend for 3 hours and went back to the apartment to party. These chicks were down to fun, we drank smoked and took lines together and partied. One was from Venezuela cute and nice natural curves but her attitude was a bit down. 250 k fro the 3 hours. The other chick was really down to earth and really wild and kept her number for next time.

Saturday night went up to Clocktower, this time it was less girls than before but different ones. There were some real 8-9's but as soon as you looked away or walked up to them, someone else snatched them. Saw the cool wild chick from last night with a new friend, this chick has the perfect body but small tits. Took them for 2 hours, back to the hotel, both chicks were fun as hell and partied / drank with us. I took the other chick, she fell in love with me and gave me GFE, DFK and BBJ at no extra cost without even me asking. Her BJ was out of this world. I fucked her in all ways I could (popped a cialis beforehand) thern camed on her breasts. She cleaned up and proceeded to more BBJ, she went at it for a good 30 minute waiting for me to CIM but I couldn't cum so we fucked again and this time longer. Afterwards we chilled and jammed for a bit until she left. This chick was a charm. Saw her again the next day.

Sunday was a dry day. Clocktower was half empty as if most chicks headed back to their hometowns. Ended up in Elektra, but was still early as not many girls but started coming in. Had no sleep during the past days and an early flight the next morning so ended up calling the last chick and called it a night.

Overall, Had a wonderful time but I feel I could have done more and seen more so Definitely heading back soon. This time solo, so if anyone if down to meet up contact me.

I recently read that the Hotel Estelar is chica friendly. Is anyone able to confirm this?

I just got back from Cartagena. And it did not disappoint!

The weather is very mild this time of year with a cool breeze. It was similar back in November but hot as balls back in September.

[B]The Gymnist[/B]

First day, Saturday, was spent getting fucked and blown by a regular Colombian chica I've known for a while. It was pretty wild and by the morning I was a broken man with a raw cock. As soon as she'd gone, I grabbed some breakfast and sat on my balcony chilling. I regret not going to the old city on my first Saturday since that's the best night even if only to get numbers and not fuck them all at once. As I'm chewing into my arrepa with jamon and queso I get a message from the gymanist 21 year old soccer freak I banged on my last trip. She was waiting downstairs and wouldn't take no for an answer. She was mad I had gone with another chica first.

This chic is fucked up. She comes up and I grab a couple of beers for us (it's like 10 am in the morning). We chat about stuff. She tells me I probably shouldn't visit Colombia anymore this year because of the elections. I had no idea elections were so violent in Colombia but based on my news watching when I was there shit is going south. That being said I had no issues in Cartagena.

This chica is insane. I have her bent over backwards and am barebacking her like a wild man. I yell at her to get her legs together. You know what she does? She crosses her feet so her legs are holding tight. I made a mess down her beautiful thighs. Damn. At this point my dick was really sore. We go out for lunch and I tell her I really can't bang anymore. She starts teasing me so I just give her her 200 k and she goes home. Did I mentioned I never once negotiated with this chica? She just gets 200 k no matter how much time she spends.

[B]Centro Historico[/B]

Even though it's Sunday and I'm a broken man who is walking funny, I decide to check out the clocktower plaza. I arrive around 11 pm and there are about 20 chicas. This isn't bad for a Sunday which is usually the second worse day to go. I hit up La Dulce Vida and there are only about 8 chicas in there. Nothing crazy. By 12:30 there are about twenty chicas and I get ropped in by a MILF with a nice fat booty. We drink. Start making out. And as I pay the bill to take her back to my apartment for an all nighter the gymnist is there sitting at the bar with her friends. I give her a weak nervous smile and she smiles back and looks away quickly.

The MILF was alright. We banged that night and in the morning before she left. I gave her the standard 400 k for TLN. She offered anal but I didn't take it up. No one ever offered me anal like that before out of the blue. My throbbing member is a bit on the wide side so chicas usually don't want to go there.

I call up my tout and complain to him that shit is too expensive in Cartagena. I tell him I want to go to a beach that's cheap with few people. Surely he could hook me up right?

[B]Punta Arenas[/B]

So turns out there's this little known beach called Punta Arenas. It's on Isla de Tierra Bomba which is directly south from the beaches on Laguito. You could technically swim to it if you wanted to from Laguito, and are a good swimmer. It's 15 minutes by speed boat. I go with my tout to meet with his buddy on a beach in Laguito. He tells me he can rent me a speed boat for 100 k to take me there, and another 100 k to bring me back. It's slightly pricey but not a bad deal. I call up the MILF I was banging and tell her to bring some friends the next morning. That night I slept well. I really couldn't fuck anymore after the initial 48 hour marathon.

We meet up Tuesday morning and head by speed boat to Punta Arenas. It's exactly as described with tables under straw roofs or whatever they're made of. There's maybe 4-5 vendors who are super cool and only come around once. I bought the chicas some braceletes and other shit and ordered us all beers and a cheap bottle of whisky. The beach isn't as great as Playa Blanca but its clear with a little debris from the city. The sand is white too. Along with the food I think the total damage was around 600 k. For five people that was reasonable. When we head back to Cartagena we went to Playa Hollywood and drank Choco Loco out of coconut shells. I think some gringo asked for House Music to be played, and that caused the chicas to start taking turns dancing and grinding their ass on my lap.

I was plastered at this point and with serious whisky dick but I was whorney too. I took one of the chicas who had nice wide hips back to my apartment, after stopping to buy viagra at a pharmacy. They sell viagra like candy in this city. The pretty pharmacists offered me a multivitamin for sexual potency. I refused her kind offer, hahaha.

Back at the apartment I shared a beer with the chica while I washed down 50 MG of viagra. Within 15 minutes I was hard as a rock and we were drunk fucking. I never paid her nor did she ask for any money when we were done which was actually a nice change. I guess the day out was payment enough for her.

[B]The Casino[/B]

By the time we got back to the table we were drinking at only one chica and my tout were left. I paid the bill for the round of drinks and then told the tout I wanted to show him how I make money. "Que? He asked as I put my arm around his shoulders and went into drunk storytelling mode. We hit up Casino Rio where the tout learned all about blackjack. By the time we were done I showed him how to cash the 500 k in chips I'd won. "Para tu," I told him, as I insisted he keep the money. The look of wonder on his stupid face as we left the casino haunts me to this day. I wonder if I turned him into a degenerate gambler? That would be a shame.

[B]The Venezuelana[/B]

I woke up at like 5 am with a hang over. I dug around the fridge in the dark and made me a ham and cheese sandwich while I slurrped on some hair of the dog. The messages on my phone were a mix of offers and angry jealous messages from various chicas. My tout too thanked me profusely. I remembered then that I walked him to his bus. Nice touch.

Then I noticed a new number but a familiar face. It was this crazy Venezuelan I had met on my last trip. She was great in the sack. I messaged her back and told her to get her ass to my place ASAP. She had just finished partying so that didn't happen until noon. This chica is a lot of fun and authentic and zero bullshit. Other than the fact that she doesn't eat any of the food we ever order unless it's dinner. Breakfast? She'll have a quarter of it and the rest take out. Lunch? Don't bother. The only other issue is she's a partier and I'm in bed by max, 3 AM. I have no interest in going to Space or Elektra with her.

On our second day together I took her to Punta Arena. It was a relaxing day. I didn't get drunk. Instead I played catch with a couple of dogs there. Went jet-skiing. Then took her back to my place for a quick bang. She mentioned wanting me to meet me at 3 am at Elektra. I was so tired I just agreed knowing I wouldn't.

[B]Clocktower Plaza Friday Night[/B]

By the time I got up it was midnight. I got something to eat, showered and hit the old city. I must have arrived at 1 am at the clocktower plaza and it was a sea of chicas. I haven't seen it this busy before in my previous trips. I hung around until about 2 am when the crowd started thinning out. There was one mona (tall blonde) with a fine, and I mean fine, ass. I followed her and she walked past La Dulce Vita about to enter Space. I called out to her and offered to buy her a drink in LDV. Instant deep throat kissing. Total GFE.

We had 2 beers and went back to my place where she immediately agreed to bareback with little discussion. I was like whhhhaaat? But fuck it. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. She left that night after the deed but in the morning enthusiastically came back for lunch and more fucking. Then she decided to take a long ass nap and that was a turn off. When she woke up I banged her again and paid her 300 k. I felt a little bad for her. She was a typical Venezuelan who was in Cartagena trying to get money for food. She chatted with her kids on whatsapp video with my phone and wifi. Didn't feel right to just give her 200 k.

[B]Summary[/B]

Cartagena is rocking right now. Anyone with a dick, a few hundred bucks, and the time to learn some Spanish and use it should be fine. Semana Santa is quickly approaching end of March. After that I expect the city to die down until about August. I'll probably head back in September.

There's supposed to be a new place in front of Elektra with chicas but when I went in on Friday it looked like a regular club to be. Might be worth exploring.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2148869]I just got back from Cartagena. And it did not disappoint!

The weather is very mild this time of year with a cool breeze. It was similar back in November but hot as balls back in September.

[B]The Gymnist[/B]

First day, Saturday, was spent getting fucked and blown by a regular Colombian chica I've known for a while. It was pretty wild and by the morning I was a broken man with a raw cock. As soon as she'd gone, I grabbed some breakfast and sat on my balcony chilling. I regret not going to the old city on my first Saturday since that's the best night even if only to get numbers and not fuck them all at once. As I'm chewing into my arrepa with jamon and queso I get a message from the gymanist 21 year old soccer freak I banged on my last trip. She was waiting downstairs and wouldn't take no for an answer. She was mad I had gone with another chica first.

This chic is fucked up. She comes up and I grab a couple of beers for us (it's like 10 am in the morning). We chat about stuff. She tells me I probably shouldn't visit Colombia anymore this year because of the elections. I had no idea elections were so violent in Colombia but based on my news watching when I was there shit is going south. That being said I had no issues in Cartagena.

This chica is insane. I have her bent over backwards and am barebacking her like a wild man. I yell at her to get her legs together. You know what she does? She crosses her feet so her legs are holding tight. I made a mess down her beautiful thighs. Damn. At this point my dick was really sore. We go out for lunch and I tell her I really can't bang anymore. She starts teasing me so I just give her her 200 k and she goes home. Did I mentioned I never once negotiated with this chica? She just gets 200 k no matter how much time she spends.

[B]Centro Historico[/B]

Even though it's Sunday and I'm a broken man who is walking funny, I decide to check out the clocktower plaza. I arrive around 11 pm and there are about 20 chicas. This isn't bad for a Sunday which is usually the second worse day to go. I hit up La Dulce Vida and there are only about 8 chicas in there. Nothing crazy. By 12:30 there are about twenty chicas and I get ropped in by a MILF with a nice fat booty. We drink. Start making out. And as I pay the bill to take her back to my apartment for an all nighter the gymnist is there sitting at the bar with her friends. I give her a weak nervous smile and she smiles back and looks away quickly.

The MILF was alright. We banged that night and in the morning before she left. I gave her the standard 400 k for TLN. She offered anal but I didn't take it up. No one ever offered me anal like that before out of the blue. My throbbing member is a bit on the wide side so chicas usually don't want to go there.

I call up my tout and complain to him that shit is too expensive in Cartagena. I tell him I want to go to a beach that's cheap with few people. Surely he could hook me up right?

[B]Punta Arenas[/B]

So turns out there's this little known beach called Punta Arenas. It's on Isla de Tierra Bomba which is directly south from the beaches on Laguito. You could technically swim to it if you wanted to from Laguito, and are a good swimmer. It's 15 minutes by speed boat. I go with my tout to meet with his buddy on a beach in Laguito. He tells me he can rent me a speed boat for 100 k to take me there, and another 100 k to bring me back. It's slightly pricey but not a bad deal. I call up the MILF I was banging and tell her to bring some friends the next morning. That night I slept well. I really couldn't fuck anymore after the initial 48 hour marathon.

We meet up Tuesday morning and head by speed boat to Punta Arenas. It's exactly as described with tables under straw roofs or whatever they're made of. There's maybe 4-5 vendors who are super cool and only come around once. I bought the chicas some braceletes and other shit and ordered us all beers and a cheap bottle of whisky. The beach isn't as great as Playa Blanca but its clear with a little debris from the city. The sand is white too. Along with the food I think the total damage was around 600 k. For five people that was reasonable. When we head back to Cartagena we went to Playa Hollywood and drank Choco Loco out of coconut shells. I think some gringo asked for House Music to be played, and that caused the chicas to start taking turns dancing and grinding their ass on my lap.

I was plastered at this point and with serious whisky dick but I was whorney too. I took one of the chicas who had nice wide hips back to my apartment, after stopping to buy viagra at a pharmacy. They sell viagra like candy in this city. The pretty pharmacists offered me a multivitamin for sexual potency. I refused her kind offer, hahaha.

Back at the apartment I shared a beer with the chica while I washed down 50 MG of viagra. Within 15 minutes I was hard as a rock and we were drunk fucking. I never paid her nor did she ask for any money when we were done which was actually a nice change. I guess the day out was payment enough for her.

[B]The Casino[/B]

By the time we got back to the table we were drinking at only one chica and my tout were left. I paid the bill for the round of drinks and then told the tout I wanted to show him how I make money. "Que? He asked as I put my arm around his shoulders and went into drunk storytelling mode. We hit up Casino Rio where the tout learned all about blackjack. By the time we were done I showed him how to cash the 500 k in chips I'd won. "Para tu," I told him, as I insisted he keep the money. The look of wonder on his stupid face as we left the casino haunts me to this day. I wonder if I turned him into a degenerate gambler? That would be a shame.

[B]The Venezuelana[/B]

I woke up at like 5 am with a hang over. I dug around the fridge in the dark and made me a ham and cheese sandwich while I slurrped on some hair of the dog. The messages on my phone were a mix of offers and angry jealous messages from various chicas. My tout too thanked me profusely. I remembered then that I walked him to his bus. Nice touch.

Then I noticed a new number but a familiar face. It was this crazy Venezuelan I had met on my last trip. She was great in the sack. I messaged her back and told her to get her ass to my place ASAP. She had just finished partying so that didn't happen until noon. This chica is a lot of fun and authentic and zero bullshit. Other than the fact that she doesn't eat any of the food we ever order unless it's dinner. Breakfast? She'll have a quarter of it and the rest take out. Lunch? Don't bother. The only other issue is she's a partier and I'm in bed by max, 3 AM. I have no interest in going to Space or Elektra with her.

On our second day together I took her to Punta Arena. It was a relaxing day. I didn't get drunk. Instead I played catch with a couple of dogs there. Went jet-skiing. Then took her back to my place for a quick bang. She mentioned wanting me to meet me at 3 am at Elektra. I was so tired I just agreed knowing I wouldn't.

[B]Clocktower Plaza Friday Night[/B]

By the time I got up it was midnight. I got something to eat, showered and hit the old city. I must have arrived at 1 am at the clocktower plaza and it was a sea of chicas. I haven't seen it this busy before in my previous trips. I hung around until about 2 am when the crowd started thinning out. There was one mona (tall blonde) with a fine, and I mean fine, ass. I followed her and she walked past La Dulce Vita about to enter Space. I called out to her and offered to buy her a drink in LDV. Instant deep throat kissing. Total GFE.

We had 2 beers and went back to my place where she immediately agreed to bareback with little discussion. I was like whhhhaaat? But fuck it. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. She left that night after the deed but in the morning enthusiastically came back for lunch and more fucking. Then she decided to take a long ass nap and that was a turn off.

Just spent 3 days in Cartagena. Thank you to everyone on this forum for the great guidance. During my time there, I mostly visited Angeles Bar in Bruselas. Very nice selection of girls. A good amount of plastic, but that doesn't bother me. Nice bar in the front, decent bedrooms in the back. Some girls wanted 200 for an hour (one pop). The hottest girl wanted 280. Not too hard to find an uber to take you there, but it was not easy to find an uber to drive me home. Had to call a taxi on Tappsi on Sunday night.

Torre de Reloj was entertaining, although I did not partake. Saturday and Sunday had many girls. The two 9/10 quality girls that were there didn't seem to get taken. Maybe they were asking for too much. Many other girls of good quality. The police were checking their ID's on Saturday before midnight. Does anyone know what the closest short term hotel is to the Torre de Reloj? I wasn't sure about that.

There are at least five short term hotels around LDV and Isis. You'll usually see a sign and a security gate.

[QUOTE=Sargent50;2149990]What are the best days to visit you mentioned Sunday is the 2nd worse day.[/QUOTE]Monday is the absolute worse. Most chicas I know stay at home. If you visit during the off season you may not even see a single soul in the clocktower plaza on Monday. That's what happened to me last year, hahaha.

Tuesday to Saturday are good days. Saturday and Friday being the best. You may need to be out pretty late on the weekend. On Friday the clocktower plaza peaked at 1 am and by 2 am all the hookers were either going to or already at their clubs and bars (Space, La Dulce Vida, Elektra).

I have this info in a FAQ if you go to the blog section of the Colombia forum.

Protip: when out on Friday gather some phone numbers that way you can reach out during the day. So gather 3-4 numbers and grab one chica that night. Then the rest of your stay you're calling up and having them come over.

Nice, I'm going to Colombia memorial weekend and debating on whether I want to do MDE Friday-Sunday or ctg Friday-Sunday but I'll be visiting both places.

Was thinking of heading down for a week in mid April. I understand it is in the middle of election season. Now, I am definitely not getting involved in any of that, but could it be violent and or dangerous? I have heard it could get dicey. I mean I guess I could wait till September or just go somewhere else but I really want to go back.

I just realized, with my utmost disappointment, that I planned my next visit to CTG, after more than one year, exactly arriving on the weekend of forthcoming elections in Colombia! The dates of my visit were not my choice. They result from some other business trip.

So what? There is a ley seca that will make all clubs closed during that weekend? What should I expect at the Reloy plaza? Maybe all Colombians will go back to their hometown to vote, but I hope Venezolanas will be out. Any real regular in Colombia could shed a light for me?

The liquor stores closed on Friday night until Monday.

As do the bars and Casas.

I did get something to drink at the hotel.

I would not go that weekend.

It was like a Ghost Town.

Ironically, in Guayaquil the same happened also on Carnival: nobody in streets, all bars closed. When I asked what happened and why the city was a ghost town, they replied "because it's Carnival!" like if it was an obvious thing that on Carnival towns becomes deserted. Ecuadorians are strange people.

You speak about Cali, but I go to Cartagena, I am not interested to liquors, I am not interested to casas, I can live without bars. So what you write does not worry me.

I found this about last elections in March:

I hope this time will be not worse.

I did not choose the dates. It's a trip for work to which I added some days in Colombia. I hope there will be the girls out in the night as always. Otherwise, my experience there will really put my hunting ability on trial. Shit.

I don't know about cities like Bogota. Generally it's not as safe as it is in a non-election year, and expect tightened security. Mid April is not the best time because after Semana Santa (easter) Cartagena empties out. You would go be going two weeks after Semana Santa. Most chicas will be back with family. I did this last year and while I did get pussy there wasn't as much around. It may actually be a good time if you want a quieter city.

Anyone ever session with this girl? Real name is Camila from Apartado. She is always in Cartagena. Trying to play good girl but I'm always the skeptical one LOL.

I've been there on several different occasions when there is voting on a Sunday, be it a local or national election, including for the office of the Presidency. I typically have liquor and beers in stock at the apartment, and then drink in cups at the beach, Guaro in a water bottle, etc. Use your imagination and good wit, amigo. Be discrete and act like you are sipping juice without the spike, lol.

Yesterday, 11 March, was also an election day. An amiga sent a text saying things were slow Saturday night and that she was heading to Playa Hollywood on Sunday to try to make up for the lack of business on Saturday evening.

There will be chicas at the Clock Tower. There are always chicas in Cartagena. Ley Seca just provides an opportunity for you to throw a private little house party back at your apartment. Just have liquor, beer and some mary jane and the party will be at your place! If you include me on the invite list, I'll be sure to invite 3 or 4 amigas to add to the ones you invite!!

No worries; you'll be fine in Cartagena. 18 - 26 year old Colombianas working Cartagena are generally apathetic citizens when it comes to voting, so don't fret. They will not be going back to where they are registered to vote. .

I will be in Cartagena for about 5 days in May. Was wondering if anyone has any good recommendations for safe / clean hotels or Airbnb that won't have an issue with bringing back girls.

Shoot me a message with your dates again. I need to think about making my arrangements to be there during that time. Thanks.

I will be there may 18-20. Already talking to a few girls off tinder and one girl I know from previous trips. So far on tinder every single one is Venezuelan. My repeat that is a local said they are taking over as working girls??

I'm not complaining hahah. I've already been told 400 from sun down to sun up by a stunner. And others are telling me 250 for a session. That's all without being there and actually negotiating.

Time can't go by fast enough!

So in excitement for my upcoming trip I've been talking to girls already, and today watching some recent YouTube tour videos and reading articles. It's really seems getsemani is changing. Gq wrote an article that it's the place to go. I remember visiting the city 10 years ago and how much it's has changed.

I was thinking about the checkpoints and getting stopped. I never ever carry anything on me. But a bit paranoid having a girl with me. Getting stopped. And getting pinned for what she has. Is it too much to send a girl back to the place in her own cab? I mean for the extra 4 $. Whatever.

I've heard of that happening in Ecuador before, so just being cautious, I actually have never ever been searched in my now 4 or 5 trips to cartagena. I am sure I will now this next trip haha.

I'm there for the Colombianas, not the to count the number of tourists surging to Cartagena for a religious holiday.

Bottom line is that a feller will find more chicas than he can handle in each and every month of the year. A feller is better off to be there in April and May and not run into those guys who only come when there's a surge, LOL.

Me and wingman had a trip planned for DR April 27 - May 1. Got turned off my the price of flights, ($700 for me and $800 for him) I said lets go to Cartagena instead, flights are under $400, it's on our list and it's not a slum like Sousa.

He came back a few days later and said that he found out that the place will have no girls, they all go home at Easter and that the upcoming elections would make it worse, as the girls will not come back from Easter until after the election. He wanted to go back to Jaco for the third time instead.

We use these boards to gauge things and gain intel. Reading last years time period in the forum showed no problems at all at this time of year. Yes, things are slower but that works for us, not against us. You don't go to Disney World while kids are out of school on vacation, you go when they are in school and less kids at Disney World.

The rides are the same, the lines are shorter and they offer discounts because they are half full.

I see it as a ratio that never really changes. During peak times, girls know fellas are coming in to town so they come in to town. During "off season", some of the girls go away and some of the fellas stop coming to town.

Thanks to Hilltop and Yippie, I am making an executive decision and we booking it.

Need to work on 2 bedroom chica friendly condo near the action. Will go back and read the forum more to see if any recommendations. Seems people travel out to Hollywood all the time, maybe we should stay out there instead of "in town"? Any feedback appreciated.

There may not be 50+ a night, but its Cartagena, not too many bad looking ones, and still, even 20+ in the clock tower, and then the various bars and clubs etc. I don't think I will run up dry.

Last year I went early May, was no shortage of girls, and from what I gather on tinder, there are a shitload of Venezuelans, and they don't return and come back, they stay. Americans and europeans visit pretty much year round, yes less during these humid sweltering months, but still business for the girls.

9 days from now we will all know the answer.

For what its worth I booked mid June myself for my next trip. I was there last year after Semana Santa and that's where I met El Mechanico as well with a buddy of mine. La Dulca Vida was completely dead. It was almost comically dead on a Friday. I think just three chicas and we went in pretty late. Isis still had chicas and my buddy mostly fucked from there. Plaza was so-so. I'd have to go back to my report but it wasn't a complete bust. I mostly banged a Venezualana with a big booty. The beaches in Bocagrande were barely populated which can be a good thing.

I've never been in June BTW so I'll report back then. From what I've been told August is when it starts picking up again and I can confirm two years in a row that September and November are good months if you don't mind the rain which peaks sometime in November. Otherwise February and March are the gold standard if you're looking for variety. I came back from my last trip completely satisfied.

EDIT:

Trip report from last April. It was the end of April going into May.

There's no need for Tinder in Cartagena though. I mean guys use it but its almost as good as the backpages in my opinion.

Open Tinder.

Create a new email address for mongering. Then create a Facebook account. Take a picture that doesn't show your real face. Create the Apps accounts you want. For Uber, you will need to get a burner number. Tracfone in the US only cost me $113 for 1 year (for limited but enough minutes, text and data).

When you create an Uber and Airbnb mongering accounts, set up a link from your personal accounts to get reward money.

April 24 to May 1, Flight from Atlanta to Cartagena on Spirit with one stop in both directions (1 HR layover out and shitty 5 hour layover coming back), with one carry on bag. $363.

I found out Copa (Panamanian airline) also runs flights to Cartagena.

Never flew Spirit before.

The only tight time in the schedule is the flight from ATL to FLL. An hour layover.

This flight is on time 90% of the time over the last year.

Time Period: Wednesday, March 1, 2017 to Thursday, March 1, 2018.

On-Time Flights:

ATL-FLL 90.21%.

Since they got a new CEO, things have gotten better.

From a January Forbes article: As of November 2017, the most recent month in which on-time performance data is reported, Spirit Airlines is now delivering 89.75% of flights on time, only behind Delta Air Lines, which delivered 93.68%.

Spirit I have never been happy with, have taken the flight from FTL to CTG about 4 times round trip. My biggest thing with them is the checking in. Especially in Cartagena, its a pain in the ass even when you check in online before hand. Ft. Lauderdale also usually.

I generally try to make that trip on Jet Blue, friendlier, cleaner, smoother process.

For trip April 24 to May 1 (7 days) Got a two bedroom condo from Juan in El Laguito. Balcony right on the water. Nice looking rooms with wall of mirrors in bedroom. Marianne building unit 1004.

Sent him one nights stay for a deposit via PayPal, rest on arrival. No restrictions on guests, just need to sign them in when you bring them.

So for one week in Cartagenia, flight from Atlanta is $363 and condo for a week is $630 split between two punters ($315 each).

Total for flights and condo for week, $678. That is cheaper than just the flight to the sewer known as Sousa.

Anyone have any leads on FB groups for working chicks? I'll be there for a month this summer, and want to find some girls outside of mileroticos and photoprepagos.

Thanks.

I am in Cartagena now, staying in El Laguito. I am looking for a guide to the night. Tour around town get to the know the scene, casas etc. I tried the names on the list provided. No luck. Does anyone have recent referral for a knowledge guide for China hunting?

Thank you, Mirlitons.

Well guys. Here I am sitting at the airport waiting to leave. I always regret getting thento airport too early. Jet blue never has a wait. Less security and questions this time. None of the "has you LE bag been in only your possession blah blah.

I do have to say. Either I got lucky. Or Cartagena market has changed. This weekend was packed! Holy crap. Before I give the breakdown, I believe it's due to so many girls from Venezuela. I did not notice much movement of girls though. Seems most chose a spot and worked it. Be it the plaza. Club. Beach. Tinder. Whatever.

Friday I arrive, just impatient. Hate waiting in line immagracion. But get through. Never issues, find a taxi, go to laguito. Juan happens to be in the lobby when I get there. I have never met him, was glad to. Nice guy genuinely.

I had a girl from tinder lined up. She came with my party supplies. Still the bud was ehh. So we had our fun. She was very passionate. Born and raised in Barranquilla, thin, kind of tall, nice fake tits. She was good and a nice girl, 250,000 for two times. She hung out for about 2 hours.

Once done I went to el muelle for my usual fried fish and pulpo con garlic. Delicous! The server remembered me from a year ago, johnny, he took a pic of me then with some girls and I showed him I still had it. He offered to meet me in the clock tower and go out. I took his number but just wasn't interested. I enjoy being solo. So I went back and ran into a fellow American and we began talking. He was here for the same thing and had been all over the world sampling. He showed me his place up higher and that he used to own. So I then go to el torre del reloj, half the places have no power!! I walk around, it's early. I go to tu candela and have beers then a girl from tinder walked by and recognized me. We went for dinner and back for fun. She was ok. Looked like a early 20's cute college girl. With braces. So then around 12:30 I go back and the plaza is full. Maybe 30-40 girls. It's not my scene. I like to drink and talk some. Break the ice. So then I went to dolce vita. It was good. Maybe 50/50 ratio. A few stunners. Then again I run into one from tinder! Ughh I'm starting to think I should use fake pics and not show them the real.
Ones until I'm sure. So anyway we have drinks, we click. She's cute and has a sexy spinner friend. They tell me 200,000 each. Ok let's go! We go back and these girls are wild. Pics, grabbing my phone and make poses and taking the pics of each other. Both kept doing bump after bump and smoking weed and drinking. I only the last two. So yeah. We had a wild time. They hung out for like 3 hours. The spinner friend would give me this fuck me look everytime the other would walk away. So I got her number. 4 in the first day. Not bad.

Going to post and start another for Saturday. Difficult to do so long on a iPhone.

[/QUOTE]Has the prices increased this much or you guys just do not negotiate? I was there last November and paid 100 or 120 most for 2 shots, never mind the time. I paid 200 for a all nighter. Venezuela girls were cheaper than Colombians.

I assume you have to be talking in dollars, I was talking in pesos, found zero girls willing to do 2 rounds for under 150,200 was a haggle.

Prices were all over the place, the older gentleman I met kept getting quoted 400-500,000 pesos for 2 hours, I think I was quoted less since I more wanted to party with them etc, and prices per girl if you wanted a girl and her friend were lower.

So Saturday morning I woke up early as usual, nothing to do really, tried texting all the numbers I had, but no girls were up of course. One finally text around 10, but I was just stepping out to meet the neighbor for breakfast. So I came back and had a girl come over around noon, real stunner, she charged 300,000, stayed most afternoon drinking, playing, having fun. Swear on my life, we went to the beach, I told her I needed to get cash since the ATM was close, she said don't worry and she paid for our drinks! 100,000!! Was impressed.

I then decided to walk the old city, just see what's happening, on my way back a girl from the night before said she wanted to see me again, so I told her to meet me at the apartment, we had our fun and lunch.

Later I went to centro again and had dinner at la cevicheria, some drinks, then home for a nap to prepare for the night! At 11 the neighbor and I went to Centro. IT WAS PACKED. I want to say 40+ girls, he felt it was more like 60+ it was truely amazing, Dolce vita at that time had a few girls, so we walked back to the plaza. He took one girl, I decided to wait it out and have some fun! I walked around, had some beers, saw some leave, new ones come, talked to a few. Around 12:30 I went to elektra, place was popping, lots of guys those, some girls. Dolce vita had gotten better but nothing interesting and the 2 from the night before were there and super jealous. I finally chose one from the plaza and we went back.

Sunday I had to leave by noon, so didn't have much time as these girls are all recoving from the night of partying. I did find one on tinder, we decided to hook up and she brought a friend. We were parting right down to the last minute haha.

Over all was a great trip, Juan is easy to work with as usual, just wish that apartment had washer and dryer.

City feels more alive than ever, I really enjoyed this time, I think coming Friday and leaving Sunday felt tooo fast, but was never bored.

Can't wait to go back in May!

Venezuela girls were cheaper than Colombians. One Colombian girl took 110 pesos and stayed about 4 hours and enjoyed the pool too in between sessions. The more you pay, the more they'll ask.

That's 44 $. Maybe we have different caliber tastes. What I would call a 8 or higher, no way they were going that low. Regular street girls or just average girl yes.

But if you want a higher class very good looking girl, you won't find under 200 if you want some time with them, not just pump and dump.

Of course, if one makes a competition on prices, there is no lower bound. You can always find something cheaper, but it's the same as for food. You will always find, even in US, a kiosk selling something to fill up the stomach for $1 USD, but in that case I would not elaborate much about freshness and delicacy of the recipe. Still, the stomach gets full, so it's ok.

I found two last March that were asking 100 K each and they were smoking hot spinners 8 on my scale 1-10 just inside the Clock Tower buying arepas from a street vendor. The younger one stayed for almost an hour and tres polvos.

I have been in Cartagena a couple of times and girls always asked for Cop $ 200.000 or more. I always look for a gorgeous girls. It is interesting you said in other post that for a older gentleman girls were kept asking 400-500,000 pesos for 2 hours, and that you think you were quoted less since you also wanted to party with them. I though that girls asked more money if I wanted to party with them. I will be in Cartagena next May 2.

I think it really depends on the girls mood. I only had one that was all about business. Was clear she was going back to the tower after seeing me hahaha.

The others genuinely wanted to hang out, yes wanted to make their living, but they wanted to have fun doing. The gentleman that I met was more limited in spanish than I was, and was more just about going to the apartment and doing the deed. I am nothing special I will say! Just an average american guy.

When one girl quoted him 500, I pulled her friend to the side who was an average looking girl, (the one quoting was maybe a 7 ID say) and I asked her why other girls quote me 200,250. She said because many girls are crazy, and hey if the guy will take it, why not. Was funny to hear her throw her friend under the bus 2 feet away hahaha.

I will be back in Middle of May, can't wait!

"Fresh delicacies"?
I love street food and at night I enjoy eating from road stalls at roundabouts in Medellin, but I don't call those heavy hotdogs, filled with fried onions and sauce, [I]"fresh delicacies"[/I]. Salchipapa is tasty, but not really high cuisine.

Previously you wrote something different: [I]"I paid 100 or 120 Pesos most for [u]2 shots[/u], never mind the time"[/I]. For THOSE girls in the photos, yes, possible. We may be attracted by different looks, but IMHO for better looking ones, in Cartagena it's a challenge.

I know the value of money, and I am aware that paying more does not mean necessarily getting better experience, but market has a logic. You know, demand and offer do find a balance.

I am not an over-payer kind of guy. The contrary. This overview "Price Update" is not really recent, but is not outdated:

When talking pricing, lets not forget that we are not buying a widget off Amazon, where the price is the same for everyone.

You think a guy that looks like John Goodman is paying the same as a guy that looks like Brad Pitt?

Some obese, hairy and smelly John, with a dour demeanor, that hasn't brushed his teeth and reeks of cigarettes, reports that prices are going through the roof! Not a single girl at the clock tower would go for less than 300,000 for ST. He reports the girls are all business and wanted to get back to the tower for more work.

Brad, a reasonable looking bloke, well groomed, nice clothes, smells good and has a fun and upbeat vibe, reports that you can have the pick of the litter at the clock tower for 100,000 to 150,000. He reports that the girls like to hang out and party, can't get rid of them, they ask to spend the night and don't charge extra.

However, you don't really need that. If you go to Clock Tower, you will meet DOZENS of girls like those in the photos (although 90% of them do look much better and will make you reconsider your initial plan).

They will take you to the hotel. There are several hotels, open 24/24 renting a room for 1 hour, in 2 block distance radius. Again, if the goal is a cheap quickie with a veteran woman, no need to spend more money for a good room, so wherever they take you will be fine.

Arrived Cartegena At day break. Strolled through clock tower around 5:30 pm. Sun still shining bright so NO chicas. Was one hottie at one of the local bars but was wi Th another gringo.

Back to apt. Nap. Wake up 1:00 am back to same spot. Many chicas. Dozens. Strolled over to Dolce Vita at 3:30 and action wad weak. One skinny Colombian girl dancing and giving eyes but not approaching. This bar closes at 4 am and strip bar down street was closed at 3:40 am.

Disappointing. Walked back over to clock tower and wad approached by a magnificent Colombian girl. 26 why / o and one of those rare cases where she made me hard by just flirting / fucking with me on the street.

Asked for 300 k. I offered 200 k and off we went. Super sweet and cordial. Had drinks at my place, didn't feel rushed. Oral no condom (which I never do but she was fantastic) and passionate felt normal sex for over an hour.

Tipped 50 k due to her being amazing. Looking forward to checking out the scene around the hotels / casinos tonight.

Any tips? Also- where does one go during the day? Any massage in Cartagena? Having trouble during day.

[QUOTE=AroundTheGlobe;2170324]Arrived Cartegena At day break. Strolled through clock tower around 5:30 pm. Sun still shining bright so NO chicas. Was one hottie at one of the local bars but was wi Th another gringo.

Back to apt. Nap. Wake up 1:00 am back to same spot. Many chicas. Dozens. Strolled over to Dolce Vita at 3:30 and action wad weak. One skinny Colombian girl dancing and giving eyes but not approaching. This bar closes at 4 am and strip bar down street was closed at 3:40 am.

Disappointing. Walked back over to clock tower and wad approached by a magnificent Colombian girl. 26 why / o and one of those rare cases where she made me hard by just flirting / fucking with me on the street.

Asked for 300 k. I offered 200 k and off we went. Super sweet and cordial. Had drinks at my place, didn't feel rushed. Oral no condom (which I never do but she was fantastic) and passionate felt normal sex for over an hour.

Tipped 50 k due to her being amazing. Looking forward to checking out the scene around the hotels / casinos tonight..[/QUOTE]Go to the beach. I have always enjoyed that. The water is not the best, but a lot going on there.

My go to the beach post was meant for post # 8115 not 8116.

Two mongers, both in early 50's. I have mongered all over Europe, Canada and Central America, I speak zero Spanish. Wing man has taken a few trips to Central America with me and is fluent in Spanish.

Flight from Atlanta to Cartagena, with one hour layover in Florida, on Spirit. I have never flown on spirit before and I can see why it was cheap. Certainly no frills, charging you for a snack or a bottle water. Seats don't recline and no entertainment devices. Longest flight of the two leg trip was 2. 5 hours, so it didn't really matter. The price was right for $365 round trip. Landing in Cartagena was like landing in the Bahamas, you exit onto the runway and walk to the terminal. Had a flight land in front of us, so customs was packed and it felt like hours but in reality, it took about 45 minutes to get through.

Meet up with wingman who arrived twenty minutes earlier. A quick change of $100 at the airport so we have some cash to pay for a taxi, exchange rate was 2500 per dollar.

Outside the negotiations begin as we are in need of a ride and some party supplies. After 10 minutes of back and forth and not agreeing on pricing, I walk away and the next taxi guy meets our price in 10 seconds, as he has watched what had been going on. The guy I walked away from jabbered a bunch of nonsense with the only message I got was to be careful of the police. A veiled threat for sure but whatever dude. He's just pissed but would of had the business had he not stuck to his gringo pricing model.

I have a feeling that we're going to have that same situation recurring as I am more of the hard ass and my buddy is it more of a softie. He doesn't understand or he doesn't want to bother to haggle over a few pesos here and there and he gets frustrated with me haggling over a few pesos while I get frustrated with him for just paying gringo pricing. He thinks gringo pricing is still reasonable and I guess it is if you compare it to where we come from but that's not the point. The point is to protect the price for everyone else that follows. I also see it as kind of a respect thing that quoting us these pricing is kind of disrespectful.

15 minutes later we arrive at the Marinare building and check in. Taxi driver Frank, drops us off and headed out to procure our supplies with a 20 minute ETA. We were met by Adolfo as Juan said he would not be there because he was in town. He said he will meet up with us tomorrow. We stayed in unit 1004 which at first glance look tired and weak. I would say that the furniture is not very comfortable and they don't make good use of the outside patio that has an awesome view. The bed was a little bit harder than I like but it was firm and clean. In my bedroom there is a wall of mirrors next to the bed and access out to the patio. In the second bedroom there is an en suite bathroom but no access to the back patio. There is an abundance of hot water which to me is a deal breaker and the water pressure was awesome. It certainly doesn't feel lived in which is more like what we are used to. There was only two towels, no bath mats so you slide and slip around on the tile floors, no paper towels and no shampoo, which are just a few of the things that you would expect. On the plus side though it does have a washer and dryer in the unit, safes in both bedrooms, an iron and ironing board and the unit is clean and no evidence of bugs. Considering all in we paid 630 for 7 nights, can't complain.

We did exchange some cash next door for 2600 per 1, not great but cop has been getting stronger lately.

Taxi driver Frank shows up at our unit 20 minutes later as promised. He shows up with twice the amount of supplies that we requested and after I refused to pay for more than we had asked for, he just gave us the rest for gratis. So we got twice the amount for the same price. He did us a solid so we told him we take him out for a beer and a small meal. Off we go and we tell him to take us to a hotspot for locals. We end up at Kiosco El Boni which as we all know is just overpriced due to its location. This is the first demerit for Frank. I had that fish platter thing where they don't cut the head off the fish, comes with rice and salad it was really fresh and good. Had some ceviche which was also awesome. Had a few beers and told Frankie was time to head back but to take us to the pharmacy first as we were in need of some blue Genies. Total damage for three meals and a bunch of beers was 130,000. After driving 10 blocks and passing 10 pharmacies we wind up at one. Of course Frank comes in with us and stands next to us at the pharmacy counter. This is the second demerit for Frank as I already understand what he is doing. We were quoted a price of six dollars per pill which were 20 MG. Pharmacist told us they would last 36 hours. All I could do was laugh and turn around and walk away. Wingman and Frank we're both like hey what are you doing and I said I was going to the pharmacy next-door. Suddenly generic 50 MG pills appeared for one dollar each. Grabbed what we needed and headed back to the apartment sending Frank on his way. I assume to go pick up his tips from the restaurant and pharmacy.

We both had been up since 4 am due to early flights and It's now about 10 PM. We were both tired so we decided we're just going to chill for the night, grabbed a pizza from the Caribbean caf next-door for 33,000 and start making contact with some chicas from the photoprepagos site. We both head to bed about midnight and of course we are tired as hell but I can't sleep.

Wingman's already sleeping so I guess I'm on my own. A few quick WhatsApp messages and a quick negotiation for 150,000 and a cab ride. 10 minutes later Lena is downstairs getting herself checked in. Get a phone call from the front desk asking if it's ok to send her up.

Meet her at the door and she's exactly as her pictures. 19 years old, awesome solid body with great small see naturals and a perfect small hard ass. Only thing about her that bothered me was that she had braces. Not sure why but I just hate that. I offer her a drink or some party material which she says no thank you and into the bedroom we go.

Became obvious very quickly that she has not been doing this for long. She was a little bit nervous and didn't seem quite sure what to do or how to get it started.

I took my time undressing her, nibbling her neck and playing with her tits from behind her. It wasn't long before she was purring and a quick finger check said she was more than ready. She stated getting a bit more aggressive and pushed me back on the bed to pull off my shorts and get to work with her mouth. Not the greatest at giving head but I could tell she was trying and it was getting her excited. She would giggle and make signals with her hands that it was too big for her to take very deep and she would gag a bit but keep trying. I don't think she understands how hot it is that she gags and keeps trying.

She pops on a condom and climbs on top. Yikes, I could feel how wet she was through the condom and she was tight. She started out slow, leaning down to tongue kiss and offer her tits to my mouth. It wasn't long before she sitting up tall and period and started seriously pumping and working my pole like the trooper she is.

She came pretty quick and mumbled a bunch of shit that I didn't understand but the mood told me it certainly wasn't complaining. Flip her over and figure it's my turn. Uh, nope. Turns out she likes that more and is now on her second pop. I'm beginning to feel like the one that's being used at this point.

Her grabbing my hands and putting them on her tits and moaning while doing her doggie was enough for me. I finished up and she asked through translator if I was happy and if she could go? Gave her 170,000 and sent her on her way. Drift off to sleep with the sounds of the ocean and the waves hitting the beach in the background.

Day one, over and out. Six more to go.

I noticed a lot on this board are dissuading others from going to clubs like pleyclub. And the advice is to just stay near the city center / watch-tower. I was there a year ago and had a good time at pleyclub and felt safe. Has it become more dangerous or something in the past year? I haven't seen any reports recently.

Anyone with experiences from Rub spa?

Cheers.[/QUOTE]I strolled the Clock Tower area on Friday 4/20 as well, but during the hours of 11:30 pm to 2:00 am (pretty close to "peak hours" for hunting) I'd estimate that I laid eyes on well over 100 different chicas looking to "work". Agree that LDV selection was weak during same time frame. At 2 am Elektra was hopping, at 3:30 am they were having to bar people from entry until others walked out, as the pass was over-capacity. Lots chicas, but also lost of dudes. So many people jammed up against one another = sardine effect.

Earlier that afternoon there were various chicas in Playa Hollywood looking to "work". Also saw chicas looking to work while strolling the sidewalks of Laguito and Bocagrande.

Daytime = Playa Hollywood, local connections, strolling Laguito and Bocagrande leading into dusk and dusk, contacting chicas various from web pages on Whatsapp, contacting the chica from last night on Whatsapp to inquire about "any" amigas or a repeat, etc.

Have not had time to do full reports yet of last few days.

We went to clock tower on Wednesday night at 11 pm.

It was packed with girls and not a lot of guys around. We stopped counting at 70 girls, I would estimate there was at lady a 100 or more. Maybe 15 or 20 mongers.

10 to 1 ratio. Girls were asking 150,000 to 200,000 depending on their looks. It's define try a buyers market.

[/QUOTE]You don't need to haggle at the airport. There's a booth where you tell them your destination and get a coupon. A taxi will come up and you hand him the coupon with the price on it. It's always been 20 k for me to Bocagrande from the airport. When I first started going to Cartagena I did not know about this system. If the taxi skips the coupon line he's trying to skip the fee he pays. The veiled threat may just have been the taxi driver saying you were breaking the law by not paying the fixed price. Not sure really.

In Cartagena taxis are all on fixed fare. I believe from Bocagrande to centro historico its 7 k or 8 k (I usually just give the guy 10 k).

Many things in Cartagena have a fixed price. Knowing the prices is something you learn over time, or just ask other tourists who seem more experienced. The actual median price for a hooker in Cartagena is 150 k. I've been told this price over and over by both touts and chicas after a few beers with them. They'll let it slip in conversation: "Oh, but a chica can earn 150 k per customer. It's good money for them!" This doesn't mean you'll see 150 k quoted as often. I tend, as per my reports, to pay 200 k for short time and 400 k for TLN. You're free to stand firm on 150 k but don't expect to always get takers.

The only other piece of unsolicited advice I can give on your report is to try not to anger the locals. You'll inevitably come across an angry crowd of touts trying to get their due from a tourist. It always looks very precarious.

Especially don't [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] off the locals if you don't speak the language.

Haggling over price is an art form. The first step is to find someone willing to haggle. You do that by walking away. If price is negotiable, they'll come after you. If you're haggling with a taxi driver, in front of the airport about buying coke and weed, you're haggling in the wrong place. You should be haggling in an institution for the criminally stupid. You're begging to be either robbed or arrested. The taxi driver wasn't threatening you. He was telling you that you were begging to get into trouble.

Just curious. Reading some scary reports and how Cartagena touts won't take "no" for an answer. How do the veterans suggest we should deal with them. When a smile and "no gracia" won't cut it -- then what?

I wrote this in my last report:

The Beach:

Playa Hollywood had a very mixed crowd. When facing the ocean, the gay section is on the left, and all others are to the right. I read and noted a lot about the beach in advance. BUT, I still had issues with some of the beach venders. Some, would not take no for a answer. I had this conversation a few times:

Me: No gracias (with a smile).

Vendor: Doesn't leave.

Me: No gracias (no smile).

Vendor: Doesn't leave.

Me: ¿Hablas español?

Vendor: Si.

Me: ¡No quiero nada o nadie!

Vendor: Finally moves on.

Ignoring after the first "No Gracias" also works now and then.

The set price for a ride from Airport Zone to Quito zone is 18,000. We pay 20,000 is easier and gives them a little tip.

Set prices from Centro to Boca or Quito is 7,000. We pay 8,000.

I avoided the airport taxis and went for a taxi out of the line because we thought we would have better luck with him on the stuff we needed beyond the ride.

[QUOTE=Tomjackin;2174673]I mentioned that at the end of my post.

I've been to PV twice, and the vendors are no way near as bad as they are in Cartagena![/QUOTE]I guess I should have been more specific in my answer.

If you say "No, gracias", the word "no" gives them an opportunity to respond (for instance, "why not", etc). Vendors are simply trying to extend the conversation longer and the word "no" allows them to do that.

That's the reason that I simply use "gracias" as my response. It is polite but it also signals that the conversation is over.

Of course, there are always vendors who keep talking anyway. But usually a second "gracias" shuts them up and they move away.

Try it next time and see if it works. It has for me and I've been all over Mexico and South America. If it works for you, I've helped. If it doesn't, well, no harm no foul.

I don't really buy from vendors usually but I got to know a few when shooting the shit with them. The touts stopped trying to con me after my first few visits when they realized I was wise to their tricks.

I heard some funny stories about that playa hollywood tout Tony. Evidently he had a website somewhere and some of his customers got mad and defaced it. When I see him these days he's usually very low key just chilling. Did he have a fall from grace or is he the big boss now?

Hey what's up.

I am going to CTG and I know prices are higher but I need to know What not to pay. I would like to what the going rate is now, What locals pay and where exactly should I be going.

I am going to CTG and I know prices are higher but I need to know What not to pay. I would like to what the going rate is now, What locals pay and where exactly should I be going. I do not and I repeat do not need to be charged 150,000. I am looking for a decent but firm backsided girls. Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]150 k is what the locals (Colombians) pay in Cartagena. If you want cheap try the centro brothels in Medellin. You might haggle down to 100 k in Cartagena but don't expect much from it.

It's Wednesday and we had a good night sleep. I'm in the bedroom with access to the patio so if I crack open the sliding door a bit, I can hear the waves hitting the beach all night. The bed is comfortable enough and I got 4 pillows. The shower was awesome hot but with only two towels, there is nothing to place on the floor as a bath mat, so the tile is very slippery both in the bathroom and throughout the entire unit. We called down to front desk and requested more towels.

Decided we were going to do our stock up shopping and then check out Hollywood beach to get a lay of the land. Wingman already out for coffee so we meet up at the little cafe a few doors down. A couple of cute girls as waitresses and ours is fun and trying to learn some English. Had a simple breakfast, 2 eggs, rice and beans with a side order of toast. With added tip, 12,000 cop ($4.60 usd).

A cab to a few streets south of the beach to a grocery store. We walked off and found a booth selling beach shit. We bought four towels for showers at the condo (4 x 3,000= 12,000 cop $4.60 usd) and I bought two huge beach towels, one said Cartagena and the other said London with a London skyline on it. No idea why it was there but I asked for the biggest she had as I am 6-4. Got both towels which are good quality and cool souvenirs too, for 50,000 ($19.25 usd).

Back to the grocery store, what a scene. Three times as many people that fit in there, skinny isles that can barely fit two carts side by side, never mind people too. No reason to get aggravated, everyone is always in a good mood and good vibes. Only one pushy asshole in the place. We stocked up on soda, beer, snacks, fruit, food and shower stuff for the girls, the normal shit. Costs us just under 100,000 ($38.50 usd) for 8 bags of stuff. Cab back to unit, unload and off to the beach about 1 pm.

We walked the 5 minutes and there you are. Along the way you are always offered the same things but street vendors that take no for an answer. Fruit, hats, bracelets, Rolex watches, cigars, sunglasses and trips to Playa Blanca. Over and over, no matter where you go, you will be offered these things. Most of the guys are reasonable and just take no thanks and move on.

Before we even hit the sand, we meet our first tout selling cabanas. Just 20,000 for the day, what a bargain. Uh, not. We say no thanks and keep walking and our new friend escorts us to the sand. And then to the beach and then the entire length of the beach right up to the rocks that separate it from Playa Boca. I guess his turf ends there. LOL. Offering us cabana, drinks, food and girls the entire way. The best in all of Cartagena. We said no thanks 100 times and he just kept walking and talking while we ignored him and talked in English. After testing if he would walk the entire beach, we turn around and walk half way back to where the only girls on the beach were, to drop our towels on the beach and start my tan. He finally gave up but the reprieve only lasted moments.

Next is the tanning lotion and massage girls. Beastly looking things that are extremely aggressive and basically deaf. It starts with a simple ask and a simple no thank you. Then they start to just rub some lotion on your legs despite your clear no thank you and stop. You literally have to swat their hands away or move your body out of their reach or they will just continue. Then they walk around you and start with the massage on the shoulders. No thank you. They keep going. Pull away they keep going. You got to just push their hands away before they stop and give up. Sat around for a few hours, drinking the few beers we brought and there is a nice gentleman who walks around with a cooler of ice cold local can beer for 3,000 cop ($1. 15 usd).

It was a Wednesday afternoon and the place was dead. Maybe 5 or 6 groups of older locals and a group of 3 20-something hotties enjoying taking pictures of themselves.

We stopped at the BBQ place on the way back for lunch. Had the shrimp off the grill with rice and fries. Nothing special but ok. Can't remember what we paid. Back to the pad and some rest, just hanging out and watching / listening to the MTV equivalent on the TV. Wingman said he wanted to wait till closer to the weekend to check out the clock tower, and since I had success the night before using the photpro site, I was just browsing the selection of girls. About 9 pm wingman decides he doesn't like ordering girls like ordering a pizza so he wants to go to the tower. By 10 pm we are there and what a surprise for a Wednesday night and so early. There was over 100 girls milling about and about 20 guys at most. It was pick of the litter and from what I could see by the numbers, prices were going to be reasonable.

We grabbed a few beers from the street vendors and sat a bench to watch the scene. Unlike in Costa Rica, the girls don't really approach many guys. They are more reserved, using a nice smile or nod and a finger wave to come here. Not very aggressive and very low key. I did notice when a nicer looking gentleman entered the scene, a few of the girls would approach and put themselves in a better eye line or closer to their target, some would even approach and introduce themselves. The John Goodman's of the group did not get approached but they always did walk away with some nice looking prey.

We got hot and went into the British Pub to cool off and a few more beers. Wingman said he wasn't feeling it and would probably just bail out. I said no problemo amigo and as we were leaving he saw her. Short and sexy thing, dark hair, mid skin and rocking body with a very cute face. Boom. Plans change quickly. She was with her sister, a hot body girl a few years older than her but she had braces and I hate that. She also had a tattoo across her upper chest (among others) that said DAD in big letters. Now I appreciate her mourning her lost father but man, what a bad fucking choice of size and location.

As I turn around a tall, skinny cutie with a nice rack and an ass you can bounce a dime off of approaches. After a few minutes of, I don't speak Spanish and using a translator and my amigo translating too, I can sense she was a bit untamed. A bit too loud, a bit too animated and a bit too under dressed showing off her assets. My brain was saying pass dude, pass but my little brain was imagining saddling this chica so I decided to give her a trial run. I said 150,000 ($57.70 usd) for two hours and some party material if she wanted which she agreed immediately. As we are negotiating she licks her lips over and over and grabbed my package. This is a major rules violation for me and should have been immediate disqualification but for some reason, I was hooked. Maybe breaking the rules can be fun I reasoned, she's really wild, this will be great, what could possibly go wrong?

A 5 minute cab ride back to pad and wingman and his girl are dancing and getting playful in the living room. I take mine out to the porch for some drinks and lines. She keeps talking Spanish which I don't understand but I don't care. I'm just feeling her up and rubbing on her and she likes it. A few beers later and into the bedroom we go. She's naked in a flash and laying on the bed, legs spread and eyes closed. I'm like what the fuck is going on. I've been in a lot of situations but this one is a new one. What am I supposed to do? Just get naked and climb on? I decide to just wait and see what happens. I took my shirt off and leaned against the furniture drinking a beer and she started enjoying herself with her fingers and keep licking her lips and staring at my crotch. You would think would be hot and get you motivated but it was just so mechanical and odd that I wasn't feeling it. I think I laughed at one point and then tried to get her out of the bed. I told her to go take a shower and she gave me the pouty face and went to the bathroom.

I jumped in with her, washed up quick and jumped out to give her some time. A few minutes later she came back wrapped in a towel. Her attitude had changed completely, she was beat already. Too much party material and too many beers, she was a casualty at this point. Spent some time getting her in the mood again but it was obvious she was tired and there was no energy or passion. A quick blowjob and she climbed on top. She looked half asleep, her makeup was smeared and I just banged one out to get it over with. She looked good up there but not a lot of fun banging a girl that isn't into it. She was down and apologizing for not being fun and I was saying it's ok, you can go. She wanted to stay but I wasn't going to be responsible for this one in the morning so I said no thanks, I was tired and like to sleep alone. Gave her 150,000 ($57) and 10,000 ($4) for a cab and saw her to the door.

Kind of a letdown compared to all my imagination had conjured up but mostly my fault. Let her partake in way too many lines, way too many beers and I let her crotch grab, a major violation, go unchecked. I got what I deserved. Hey, wasn't horrible, I got a quick nut off and the damage was $61. What's to complain about?

Went to sleep thinking, I will not break the rules, I will not break the rules, I will not break the rules.

Wasn't the night I had imagined but all in all, not a bad day.

[/QUOTE]Loving the reports, please keep them coming.

Thursday morning and the weather is the exact same since we got here. High 80's and humid, although it doesn't feel uncomfortable like Miami does. Your clothes are not sweat soaked in ten minutes.

From our balcony we can see a few small beaches below us with a few guys offering jet ski ride rentals and the normal beach sellers, floats, massage, beer and fruit. After breakfast we are going to go check it out so I can get my 2 hours in the sun to work my tan.

Had a simple breakfast at the cafe a few doors away and watched the walk of shame from the buildings around us. Women of all shapes and sizes, obviously wearing last night's clothes, making their way out to taxis. We also see a lot of women who are obvious hookers, starting their days, getting breakfast or coffee and heading to the beach or the stores. A lot of the buildings around us are in essence, brothels. If you look on the photopro site, a lot of ads list "my private apartment in El Quito" as an option for a place to play. Once you view a few ads you notice a theme and some of the same furniture or balconies in pictures of different girls. You also can start to place the girls in specific buildings by distinct baloneys, such as the blue glass balconies and the ones with certain railing types and colors.

Around noon we head out the back gate of the condo property and we are about 20 steps from the sand of the small private beach. It is not "private" as anyone can get there from walking from the side road just before the Hilton but due to its location, it seems that only people from the few buildings located on that side come here. At most we have seen about 20 people at one time, on the beach over the last few days.

Had a short conversation with the cabana guy but chose to pass as we weren't planning to stay very long and I wanted to be in the sun. He started at 20,000 ($ 7.60) for the day and agreed to 10,000 ($ 3.85) if we changed our mind and wanted one. These are not Miami style walk in cabanas, these are small canvas tents, about 3 feet tall and barely wide enough to fit two chairs side by side. They come with two uncomfortable looking plastic chairs with the possibility to rent additional lounge style chairs with a small pad for another 10,000 per chair.

We spent a few hours drinking a few beers and watching about 10 people in the water and another 10 lounging on the beach or in cabanas. Very low key vibe, offered massages, lotion rub downs, cold beers and food vendors walking by. The sales pitch was much different than at Playa Hollywood. These people accepted no after two times and moved on. A refreshing relief from the dogged and aggressive approach we saw at Hollywood.

There is a restaurant on the beach, surrounded by bars on the windows and as walls surrounding their small patio. It looked more like a prison than a restaurant which was a turn off so we did not enter or order anything from them. After a few hours we stopped at the Carib Cafe located next door to the condo for a quick lunch. Had a sandwich and some fries with a coke, total damage for both of us was 24,000 ($ 9.25), more like $11 after added tip.

Hung around the condo and rested a bit, did a load of laundry using the in condo washer and dryer and started to formulate our plan for the night. I wanted to go the clock tower and take another fish from the pond but wingman put me on a night of restriction for my transgressions from the night before. It's our thing we do when one gets a bit ahead of themselves to put each other in check. It keeps us safe and on target instead of letting a situation or trip degrade to a point of trouble or distress.

I decide to order from the photo site and he decides he is going to invite his girl from last night to come over again. I had this girl from the site I had my eye on. Not normally my style but after seeing a few girls on the beach and in the neighborhood with this body type, I wanted to partake. I normally like a small spinner, a crack working girl with nice see size tits and a tight ass. This girl was the classic Colombian, huge firm tits, small waist and wide hips and big ass. After some back and forth with her for about an hour using translator, we came to an agreement on time and service. 175,000 for two hours ($ 67.30), no condom blowjob and of course covered for vaginal sex.

Then she sends me a GPS location for me to come to her apartment. It was about 10 buildings away and across from the police kiosk near the beach. I just assumed she would be coming to me but she said she wants me to come there. Well fuck me, that's against our rules. We don't walk into situations where we don't control the environment the best we can. It's allowed after we meet or spend time with a girl but not as a first encounter. I'm already hooked on this chica but all the bad scenarios are already running through my head. I can get mickied, I can get jacked by a pimp or who knows, probably worse things than I can think of. I don't really know who she is, have never met her and I don't get the protection of our own security guard or a check and record of her identification.

I try to save the date by offering to meet her first out a bar between the two of us for a drink. If I can at least meet her first in a neutral area, gauge her sanity and see if I need to have an ID check or not. She is resistant to meeting first and then tells me she wants to get paid for the time if she comes to have a drink. Two demits in one sentence and I decide to pass. Business is way too slow and there are way too few punters looking for company to pay some working girl for the right to buy her drinks. I am already on restriction and karma says if you put yourself in the shit, you're going to get shit on. Begrudgingly, I pass and move on.

Wingman's girl shows up looking fucking hawt. I mean she is a knockout with a great attitude and wild smile. They agreed she was going to spend the night and after hearing about my failed date she offers to call her sister and have her come over. Yes, her sister with the DAD tattoo across her chest and the braces. I tell her I will negotiate my for myself, just give me her number. I contact her and she sends me a few pictures of her naked and I am in. She has a rocking body and seems like a nice girl from the limited time I already spent with her at the tower. I figure what the hell, it's after 9 pm and I really don't want to start over so I agree. 250,000 ($ 96) for all night, let's see what happens. This makes wingman's girl very happy to get her sister some business, keeps her sister out of the clock tower and I redeem myself with wingman by getting him some browning points with his girl.

I jump in the shower and hang out in the living room waiting for her while wingman's taking his first turn with his girl in his room. Less than 30 minutes and security is calling to ask if it's ok to send Carolina up. Oh, that was another reason I went with it. Being from the Carolina's and her working name is Carolina. Surely this was a sign?

She shows up at the door dressed conservative and looking fine. A very nice tongue kiss welcome and a thank you for calling her and wanting to see her. OK. There's two check marks baby, your off to a good start. I offer her a shower and she said she just had one but will take another if I want. No, I'm ok, so I offer her a shirt to put on so she can get more comfortable. She liked that and I got her one of my button down dress shirts to put on. Man, she looked fucking fine in my shirt. Beautiful fit legs that are long and smooth with just a hint of her fine ass peeking out from under my shirt. I make her a drink and grab a beer and we settle on the couch with legs wrapped around each and snuggling like we have known each other for years.

Unknown to me, my wingman told his girl she should go and say Hi to her sister, so the bedroom door opens and there she is, wearing only a pair of panties, with her rocking firm tits bouncing around and she giggles her way into the living room. We have one of those Bluetooth speakers connected to a phone for girls to pick playlists from you tube and that fucking song starts. The same song I will hear over and over for the next 4 days. "I'm in love with your body. " A great song the first few times you hear it but after 30 times, I just have to sigh and shake my head.

Anyway, out she comes just in panties. Song blaring and she starts tweerking and playing the bongos that are in the living room, shaking her tits and ass like a pro. Quite a site to see and I am instantly hard. Wingman got himself a trooper! Sister has an oh my fucking god look on her face and shoots her a what the fuck are you doing look which younger sister fluffs off and continues her tweerking right to the end of the song. Then she comes over, grabs her sisters' hand, whispers in her ear to fucking lighten up and have some fun. They both start dancing while me and wingman make drinks, put some snacks in a bowl and watch the show.

We start with some shots of some white clear liquor we picked up. Not sure what it was but it was like 300 proof and went down a hair rough but yikes, it was good. It makes your head spin a little and gets you instantly in the party mode. Not sure what it was, I think it began with an A.

Out on the porch to have a smoke and my darling comes out saying she was missing me. Aw. She leans against the counter / railing looking out at the ocean. I stand behind her swaying to the music and she reaches back to pull me closer so I am up against her. She starts pushing her ass back against me and moaning a little inviting me to kiss and nibble her neck while we "dance" in place looking at the water.

My phone is in front of us on the counter which is the top of the railing and she uses translator to tell me she can feel how big and hard I am and it's making her horny. She says she wants me to fuck her. I say ok, and grab her hand to go to bed but she resists. No, she says, I want you to fuck me right here and right now. AH, how fuckin hot is it when she's asking, no uh, demanding you fuck her now. Weeeee. She reaches into the pocket of my shirt she is wearing and pulls out a condom. Unknown to me, she had gone into the bedroom before coming out to the porch and grabbed one off the night stand.

She takes it out of the wrapper and tries to put it on using her hands behind her back without turning around. Nice try but she can't seem to get it right so I take it from her and help her out. She grabs my cock and guides me into a very wet and tight pussy from behind. Standing kinda motionless except for her grinding and pushing back at me to get it deeper into her. I reach around and unbutton her shirt so I can let her puppies free. She grabs my hands and puts them on her tits and puts her hands behind her and around my neck which pushes her tits up nice and proud while grinding back against me. It was a very romantic session with me kissing her neck and us grinding to the music. She came in just a few minutes and I was not very far behind her, spooging into the condom and just standing still while I throbbed off a huge load. After a minute or so, she turns around, takes off the condom and cleans me up with her mouth. She tells me thanks, she really needed that. HA. You and me both baby.

Back into the kitchen and wingman and his girl are hanging out, playing with their phones and having fun. We join them for a while, drinking, laughing and just having fun. We taught the girls the art of using the middle finger and how to say Fuck You in English. We told them it was a bad thing to do and might upset the person they do it to. So wingman's girl says, probably best to run away after. So there they are, practising the middle finger, saying fuck you in broken English and then running off to the porch. You had to be there, it was cute and funny.

Time for bed and we retire to our separate rooms. Round two with her was even better than round one. It started out like a honeymoon, a lot of petting and kissing and degraded into full on porn style suck and fuck. She wanted me to lick her but I was hesitant. Not to break the mood but I need to turn on the lights and do a full on inspection first. She was annoyed but agreeable. After a visual check, I dug in and ate her to two orgasms and she returned the favor in kind. Some 69, about four different positions, slipped a finger in her ass at one point which she didn't seem to mind. Very connected sex with someone who gave me the feeling she wanted to be there and was enjoying herself as much as she enjoyed pleasing me. Had a great night and after about 6 orgasms for her and 2 for me, she fell asleep with her head on my chest. I fell asleep about 20 minutes later to the rhythm of her very faint snoring and the waves crashing the beach.

Tinder is a great resource in Cartagena, to say the least. 90% of the profiles are escorts. The going rate is 200-300/ HR, but can generally be negotiated down to 150.

First day in Cartagena matched with a cutie on Tinder. She came to my place, we shagged. No charge, just a tourist looking for the same.

I'll be around if anyone wants to grab a few drinks.

[QUOTE=Hilltopper;2180432]Black Page, this is a public service announcement: Clean-up your inbox to allow space for receiving new messages.[/QUOTE]Done. Too many girls wrote me recently and filled up my mailbox.

Friday morning and I am awakened by a naked ass rubbing against me. It was 6 am and as the standard, it is usually the minimum time when an all night might end. It kind of bugged me a little that it was so early, as I took it as an indication that she was watching the clock. Maybe not fair for me to think that way, as you don't know her situation, she could have kids she needs to get to or pick up from a baby sitter. Either way, she was ready to do her duty before getting up to leave. I motioned for her to use her mouth and giving her a break, I just finished as soon as possible instead of holding back and enjoying more. She was a trooper and had fulfilled her duties so who was I to complain. I had a great time with her. I owed her 250,000 ($ 96) and I gave her 300,000 ($ 115) plus 10,000 ($ 3.80) for a cab and sent her on her way with her sister, who was waiting in the living room for her. Wingman told me her sister was up at 5:20, did her work and was showered and dressed by 6:00 am on the dot.

My plan was to go back to bed for a few hours while wingman went for his coffee fix and some breakfast. An hour later my phone starts blowing up with pictures from wingman of the walk of shame going on in the street and the hotness of the ladies that had joined him for some breakfast. Quick shower and I am down stairs to meet him at the restaurant. I find three beauties sitting with him and a table full of half empty plates. Order an Italian sandwich as I was up for more than just eggs. Waitress delivers a Cuban instead which had mustard on it. I would have just ate it no problem but I can't eat mustard so I send it back. She apologizes and admits she wrote it down wrong. She returns in ten minutes with half an Italian. Hmmm. My nature is to always call out bullshit when I see it but these are our girls who have been fun and friendly so I let it slide. I will say, it came back into my head a few times during the day, wondering where the other half of my sandwich ended up. Demented but that's me. If I had called bullshit, I would not have given it another thought but since I chose to hold it in, it haunts me until my next meal.

Girls eating with us were dropping hints that they were available as tour guides for the day and one was definitely working me with her eyes and mannerisms, trying to get me interested. We had plans to go to olde town and see the fort and walk the wall. As the bill came, they immediately pulled out wallets and started to pay their share of the bill. This struck me, as they didn't linger to see if we would pick up the bill and this earned her enough check marks for me to ask for her info, maybe I would give her a call before my trip ends. We exchanged what's app numbers and said goodbyes. Before leaving, she made the move to hug, kiss my cheek and tell me she hopes I call her, nice touch.

Hung around condo till 1 o'clock and grabbed a cab to Centro. I went a bit heavy on my Tony Montana level before leaving and I suffered a bit for the first few hours in Centro. My mind was doing 200 miles an hour but with the heat, my body was stuck in second gear. When we arrived I finally broke down and bought that stupid hat that every gringo is wearing. Tan with a big brim but I chose the one with just the black band on it instead of the ones that said Colombia or Cartagena. He wanted 20,000 ($ 7.70) and I said 15,000 ($ 5. 76) and claiming that is what wingman paid for his, which he bought on day one. Really he paid 20,000 but I figured we could get some cost averaging here. He said no, we walked two feet and he said yes. I ended up carrying the stupid thing around all day after wearing it for ten minutes.

We started walking the fort wall, taking a few pictures. Not too many people around, mostly couples with a kid or two. Didn't walk too far before realizing there wasn't much to see. It's just a wall with a few old rusted cannons. We gave up pretty quick and headed into town to find some lunch.

We ended in the square that has that sculpture of a lady laying her on side with the big boobs. A few guys selling the normal wares in the square. We walked the church there, dropping all the change we had into the prayer candle boxes. Wanted to leave some bills but there was no collection box we could find.

Saw a real hot MILF sitting with a friend at the cafe in the square, wingman said she isn't a working girl and I agreed but let's see what happens. We took the table next to them, they were just finishing their meals and having a glass of wine. I bought her another and I started chatting her up. She spoke broken English and we managed a reasonable conversation. Wingman didn't like her friend and was pretty quiet, so her friend was looking annoyed. How dare a man not fall for charms and not want to get with her, she seemed offended. She kept telling her friend that they had to get going. Fucking cock blocker. I asked if I could take her to dinner or drinks sometime and she said yes, we exchanged numbers and off they go. Wingman said sorry, he should have chatted her up to keep her occupied but she wasn't his type at all. No problems amigo, no harm done.

I wanted seafood and waitress talked us into this big bowl for two. Had salad in the bottom, a shit load of 6 types of seafood and a 6 skewers with meat and vegetables on it. Was pretty good and went down nice with a few cold beers. Total damage with excessive tip was 130,000. ($ 50).

After the girls left, Johnny Fixer introduced himself and asked if he could sit with us. We said no problem and he talked non-stop for the next hour about his many jobs. Jewelry salesman, cock fighting entrepreneur, bull fighter with the scars to prove it, had drugs, had girls and had a boat. Wanted us to come to his barrio tonight to watch his cock fight. I explained we had our own cock fight to go to tonight but not the animal kind. He showed us his sweet looking boat which he would stock with two girls for each of us and take us out for the day to the islands. Showed us a video of some guys on the boat partying with girls. Includes drinks, lobster lunch and anything else you want. Normally 1,200 usd but since it was just us two, he would discount to 800 usd. Not in our wheelhouse so we passed but not a bad deal I would guess, if you had 4 guys splitting the costs and got him for under 1,000. We took his number not to offend but had no interest in calling him for anything. Mostly because he quoted prices in usd, a major violation to us.

After 20 minutes of listening to the walking rapper who carried his jam box strung around his shoulder while crooning to the tables at the cafe. He wasn't half bad, had a good voice and wasn't too aggressive looking for tips. Only from the people who seemed to encourage him. Once he played that fucking song, I'm in love with your body, I knew we had been there way too long. Time to head back for some rest.

Got back to the condo but there was no rest in the cards. I had been way too much in excess and my Tony Montana level was through the roof. I knew all day and after every bump, I was going to regret it but sometimes once you get started, you just can't lay off.

Pop a couple of 50 MG sildenafil citrate and downed with three beers, trying to equalize my Montana level, sildenafil level and alcohol level. I figure if I can get everything to 33%, all will be ok. Although in hindsight, it would have taken 300 MG and a 12 pack to balance out how high I was.

I had one more night before I saw the girl I came here for. We had been chatting and face timing for weeks before I got here and I was supposed to pick her up at the airport tomorrow afternoon, when she returned from seeing her family in Peru.

Feeling a danger to myself and to wingman, I advised we should cool it tonight and not stray too far from home. He didn't care, he had already had his girl from last night set up for tonight. She was blowing his phone up all day but I didn't know he made a plan. He asked about the sister and I said no thanks. I didn't tell him why but it was because she had not contacted me all day. Not a hola or a thank you for a nice night, which in my world is pretty standard fare for a chica looking to repeat. I felt maybe she didn't enjoy herself as much as I did and must have just put on a good show as he jobs dictates.

Wingman's girl showed up around 8 and settles on the kitchen bar top with her phone. We had a few beers and then she plays that fucking song, you know the one. I'm out of here.

Off to the patio and I went about picking a girl from the online menu. Found a sweet looking thing that checked all the boxes. Quick negotiation, 150,000 ($58) for two hours, no condom blow job and condom for vaginal, my typical selections. An hour later, security calling asking if ok to send her up. She arrives at the door but it isn't her. She sort of looks like her but I'm sure she isn't her. The girl I picked was 23 and this girl looked 19 or younger. Was worried for a second about how young she looked but figured security would have checked. Thought about kicking her to curb on principle but the first thing she said through translator was that her friend couldn't make it and she was here instead, if that was ok. She was cute with a rocking body so I told her she was more beautiful than the other girl and I was happy she was here.

A few beers and she's ready to go. Get her into the bedroom and she takes off her dress but leaves her bra and panties on while starting to dance in front of the full length double door mirrors that are closet doors. She really likes looking at herself and so do I. I point to her and then my eyes and then the mirror, asking if she likes the mirror. She said yes, very much.

See does a nice strip tease never taking her eyes off herself and looking back at me in the mirror. I'm hard and ready and she drops to her knees in front of the mirror and motions for me to come to her. Uh, yes ma'am. She blows me for a while with me standing in front of the mirror. She is watching herself do it in the mirror almost the entire time, which I found very arousing. She pushes me back on the bed and after applying the wrap, she climbs on. Again, always looking in the mirror while she rides me. Moving us into position so we can both watch the show in the mirror. Grabbing her tits and smiling at herself, watching herself do the tweerk thing while riding me. It was really hot to see how into herself she was but the condom was killing my erection. Montana level is never a problem when bare but once the condom goes on, I can have some trouble sometimes if I did too much, as was the case today.

After ten minutes, I'm half hard and she gives me the sad face. I explain it's the condom and not her, she is great. She takes it off and starts with her mouth again. Doesn't take long to get me hard again and she wraps it up and climbs back on. Another ten minutes and same thing, I'm struggling to maintain. She takes it off and starts sucking again, hard again she lays down on the bed and spreads her legs inviting me in. I'm going strong now but realize I'm never going to finish and I am getting tired since I am the one now doing the work. I stand up in front of the mirror and motion her down on her knees. This time she is motioning she wants me to finish on her tits. No problem baby, great idea! Didn't take long and I finished up on her nice natural rack and hand her a towel from the nightstand.

A quick wipe off and she is putting her clothes on. She was fresh and showered when she got to me and all I could think was, I hope the next guy makes her shower first because he is going to kiss and lick her tits and get some Joe juice residue while telling his buddy how great she tasted.

I gave her the 150,000 ($ 58) and 10,000 ($ 3. 80) for taxi as agreed and walked her to the door. After she left I realized she had been here over 3 hours. Had I recognized, I would have tipped her for the extra hour. She was a trooper and wasn't a clock watcher. The fact she didn't bring it up, mention the extra time or ask for anything, I felt bad about it. I tried to reason that she enjoyed herself, had at least 4 orgasms, so fuck it, no harm. Didn't work, it still bugged me and I felt a bit like a heel.

It kept me awake for a few hours, watched TV I don't understand, tossed one off on my own and finally fell asleep.

Day One.

Sucked. I have been here a few times, the last time being 2015. First time was in 2007. From reading the reports here, I thought maybe it got better, and with it being so close to Florida I had to give CTG another try.

As noted above, it kinda sucks still. I went down to the clock tower area. It was a Friday night and I sat around in bars like Candela from 8 until 10 pm. It was just a lot of tourists and cops whenever I went out into the clock plaza area. I'm told you have to wait until late, like after midnight, before all the working girls come out. If so, then I say that sucks. Been waiting around in this hot CTG oven all day, hoping to connect later that evening. Not realizing that 'later in the evening' actually means the next am.

Luckily I am leaving for Medellin on Sunday. But honestly, anybody reading the Colombia forum deciding on where to go, CTG is not the place. Unless you are looking for a place where you can sweat, this is really an awful destination for relaxing with the ladies.

Here is the daily CTG routine: wake up and eat beans & rice, start sweating by 9 am, wait all afternoon imagining that you might at least get laid when it gets dark, fight off touts promising to find you a chica who happens to be fat, pay 3 x what you would for herbs back home, make a run by LDV and find out they've closed, then go to clock tower area based on a rumor there are hookers there. Wait around there for a few hours looking at tourists until you feel like you want to go to sleep.

Then, and only then (say by midnight or so), you can now go out and find a way overpriced chica at Elektra at 3 am when you'd rather be sleeping.

Bottom line: CTG is very inconvenient, with no am Or afternoon or evening options (only post-midnight action) + it is way too hot, and if you do find a chica worth it, she is USA Prices.

[/QUOTE]Tu Candela is not a hooker bar. The chicas will not come out before 10 pm. You will start seeing them in the plaza around 11 pm. Hookers will not come out if families are around. It's a cultural thing. It is off season so I'm not sure what the night life is like. Last year around this time night life was fairly light.

I'm there next month and already have hookups. My experience lately has been the exact opposite. I can't get them off me when I arrive and need to ration my semen.

But I think for a destination, it is just too inconvenient for those who want just come down and partake easily. It isn't easy here in CTG unless you are nocturnal or have previous contact info.

Probably 'ordering in' a prepago chica is the only option for those without previous contacts or who might want to get laid before midnight.

[/QUOTE]I get all my numbers at night. Just talk to them briefly and tell them you'd like to see them tomorrow. They usually are game for that.

Go by Playa Hollywood during the day and there are usually some prepagos. Your other option is tinder. Lots of prepagos.

Straddler, one thing surely will help you, talk to the touts at the beach and explain them what exactly you want and at what price, who pays for taxis and how much and that you won't take a girl if she does not match your agreed upon descriptions or a photo if a photo available. Be firm, understand how the touts are compensated; each has dozens and dozens of options at a phone call away, and most of the girls will never show up at the clubs, near the clock tower and generally at night. I did it many times and it worked perfectly. I agree with you that CTG is inconvenient place. Tinder also has to work, and web sites like mileroticos, see [URL]https://co.mileroticos.com/escorts/bolivar/cartagena-de-indias/[/URL].

Things suddenly got better & I regret my previous report from Day One saying things sucked here.

First, what yippiekayay wrote about Tinder is true: I had plenty of prepagos contacting me within minutes of signing on.

But, I didn't need that. In the am, I was walking down towards that Hlywd Beach section, saw no girls and was about to give up when I saw an incredible body near those shacks. I'll try to post a pic I took of her as she was walking by. Caught up to her and worked out an arrangement. She was friendly and extremely hot. She works for an agency through photoprepagos, and came from Cali for a week. She scored some herb from a guy who literally was handing her the product through the slats in the opening of the shack.

Had such a great experience, that I am going to hold out until she comes over in the am And holding out was not easy, as I explain below:

Clock Tower Plaza area: I found out that the cops are actually keeping the hookers out until later so that it remains 'touristy' until then. But If you check the side streets just off the clock tower plaza, there are a bunch of hot obviously dressed prepagos just eager and waiting to be let into the plaza. Of course, just about midnight the cops opened the floodgates and the plaza was full of hot hookers. All shapes and sizes. Think of the Delrey in it's good years. Prices ranged from 200 k on high end, to 100 k low. I was holding out for my am Chica so I just did some catch and release. One technique that seemed to work well is get her to agree to a price to go back to Laguito or BocaGrande. Then ask if there is a local place close by to go to (hint: there is, and it is only 20 k for the hour). Now, just suggest that if you all stay close and not trek all the way out to wherever, maybe she will agree to a better price. But even 200 k is like $70 USA, so why mess around too much.

Elektra: this is definitely the new LDV, but better. Just a block or so from the clock plaza, I went in around 11 pm. It was kinda empty, they had decorated for the club's bday, but still a few nice girls. Then within a half hour they just kept walking in. Before long I had girls rubbing on me trying to convince me not to wait for my am Chica. They all asked for more here than in the clock plaza, but there is no cover charge so they keep coming in and going. Great place to hang and wait until the clock plaza has been detouristed.

Bottom line, just ignore my Day One report.

[/QUOTE]In Playa Hollywood my tout will send me photos of the chicas as they arrive so I can decide to drop by or not. They usually don't show up until the afternoon though. If you sit there in the afternoon you will be propositioned by them which I enjoy hahaha.

Glad it worked out. I haven't been to Elektra much. It got hopping at midnight eh? That's interesting. All the chicas would tell me it doesn't get busy until 3 am and that's too late for me.

It was 1 am When I left and it had been packed w chicas for well over an hour. Then again, it was on a Sat. Night. Also, there was no cover charge, and beer prices were not too unlike the rest of the old city area, Coronas were 15 k ($5 USA).

I overheard a staff guy telling a couple hot chicas that they could get a free drink each if they accompanied him to go sit with a group of customers.

It is Saturday and at noon I head to the airport to pick up my girl. She was a friend of a girl I see in Costa Rica who hooked us up when she heard I was going to Columbia. I had offered to fly her in from San Jose but she couldn't get away so she sent me her friends info. I started communicating with her about three weeks before taking the trip. She is a sexy 25 year old, graduated college with a nursing degree and was returning to Cartagena after spending a few weeks with her family in Peru. She starts her new job in a week and I have three nights left in town.

Arrive at the airport no problem and wait. She arrives on time and greets me with a long wet kiss and some hugs. We grab a cab and head back to the condo. I give her some time to unpack, shower and relax. She said she is horny and hungry and I ask which one she wants first. She says she wants sex first then some food. After an hour of sex, which was slow and sexy with a lot of deep kissing, we ended up falling asleep for a few hours. Around 5 pm, we take another shower and off to find some food.

I take her to the restaurant at the very west end of the beach. A real nice place with great food, drinks and food. I had a seafood platter and she ordered some rice dish with fish. Both meals were great and total damage including drinks and tip was only 100,000. ($ 39). I was surprised it was that cheap as I was expecting to be pricier, considering how nice the place was compared to the shacks on the beach. They had cloth tablecloths, fine plates and silverware and glassware. The mood was relaxed, with soft music playing and a relaxed beach vibe. A cool breeze blowing through the place and we ended up having drinks on the deck watching the sunset which was beautiful.

We headed into Boca Grande, as I wanted to check out the casinos. We ended up at the one to the next to the mall, it looked like the nicest one of the three I saw from the outside. It was nice and clean on the inside but it was smaller than I expected. It had all the Vegas style gaming and the staff were friendly and most spoke enough English to keep up with what was going on. We played blackjack for a few hours, won a little, lost a little and basically breaking even in the end. Drinks were slow to arrive and I ended up just going to the bar to get our drinks half the time. I didn't notice many hookers around, maybe a few at the bar seating but not a large presence at all. There were about 25 people milling about in the place, all seemed to being have fun but no one seemed to be winning much.

We grabbed some street food and ended up walking all the way back to the condo, window shopping, people watching and talking as we strolled along hand in hand. More sex and off to sleep.

Wingman has wife up with his darling for the rest of the trip so it was all rather tame and normal, as if two couples that were friends had went on vacation together. The girls got along well, although mine got a bit tired and put off at times at how wild wingman's girl acted after getting a few drinks in her. Like Jekyll and Hyde. She seemed prim and proper until the liquor flowed and then she got a bit outrageous. My girl thinks you should act respectable in public and like a working girl in bed, which seemed reasonable to me but wingman's girl just didn't have that filter when she drank. We tended to split up after an hour or two of drinking at night as my girl couldn't relax and felt embarrassed when the other girl acted "inappropriately" in public.

The next two days were spent as any couple coming to Cartagena on vacation would do. We went to the beach every day, rented a ski-do for a half hour, laid on the beach and in a cabana. Visited downtown, she took me to the flea market south of Centro (a real shit hole of a place but had character, make sure you wear closed toed shoes), ate at a bunch of different restaurants. I took her shopping in Boca and bought her a dress and some shoes along with a sexy nightie she wanted to wear for me. Total damage shopping was 240,000 ($ 92 usd). Drank and danced in clubs at night and spent hours every night having hot uninhibited sex. She was very accommodating and giving in bed. Most morning were the same, sex, shower then food to start our days with a mid-day oral session, either me eating her to climax or her giving me head but usually both.

On our last day, in the middle of the afternoon, she wanted to stop at the pharmacy and she bought a disposable enema. I was a bit surprised as we had not talked about anal since a few weeks ago when she told me she tried it twice before and was not into it. I figured it was a no go zone. I asked what was up and she said she does not know how it was going to go since I'm kinda a big boy but she said she wanted to try with me.

So yeah, I got to spend the rest of the day trying not to think about that. Ha, like that was going to happen. We spent a few hours at the beach where she made sure to keep showing off her ass to me. Always bumping and grinding against me, putting my hands on her ass and being playful about it all. She has a small tight ass not like a typical Colombian. She is a short spinner type with nice pert see size boobs and not an ounce of fat on her belly. One small tattoo on her pelvis area that is hidden unless she takes off her bottoms.

We went dancing that night and she kept showing off that ass, bump and grinding me while telling me she can't wait for me to fuck her in the ass. We were both getting pretty worked up and this night was one for the record books. Her nipples were rock hard all night and showing nicely through her dress. Not a guy in the place that did not want to get a piece of her. I was so proud showing her off, I felt like a king with the way she kept wrapping her arms around my neck and kissing me. For all three days, I could see the envy on both the guys and the girl's faces that saw us, wherever we went.

We got back to the condo and after she prepared in the bathroom and shower, she came out wearing the nightie I bought her. Money well spent, she looked fucking angelic. I spent over an hour working her up and getting her as horny as possible. I ate her out for what felt like an hour, starting with her on her back, then her riding my face and then she turned around for some great 69. I kept slipping a finger in to her ass both while eating her and while we fucked switching between many positions. She liked that and it made her cum over and over. Thanks to the alcohol, my Montana level at only 10 percent and 200 MG of blue genie during the day, I was raring to go and felt like I could last forever.

I waited as long as I could, fucking in many different positions before going for the gold. We first tried with her on her knees first but I could barely get the head into her ass before she had to bail out. We tried a few times but it wasn't going to happen. I was ready to give up but she wasn't.

She flipped onto her back and asked me to try this way. After a bit of trying, I finally got about half way into her. It took a bit of effort but she eventually relaxed a bit and I got more than three quarters of the way in. She looked awesome under me and I was glad she chose this way. I could see her beautiful face and incredibly perky tits while she was on her back. She said later that it helped that we could kiss and make out while doing it which really helped her to relax and made her feel more romantic and horny. It never turned into a porn star experience but I was able to stroke her out a little. I let her do most of the moving, with her pushing up and grinding to move me in and out of her ass. She liked that she could control the depth and speed.

Near the end, while I was in her ass, I slipped two fingers in her pussy while she was grinding up at me and she came like a rocket. I'm pretty sure we woke the neighbors as she had what she called one of the most intense orgasms of her life. Her cumming so hard and loud made me finish. I pulled off the condom and blew the biggest load of the trip on her stomach. I came so hard, a bit of it reached her face and tits. I haven't come with that velocity since I was 25! One of the sexiest and most satisfying sex sessions I have ever had.

All in all it was a great time and a perfect ending to my trip.

We had spent three nights together, Saturday, Sunday and Monday night, without one problem. Never argued or had a bad moment besides a few isolated incidents here and there, mostly caused by her irritation with wingman's girl. Nothing of consequence that caused any problems.

On Tuesday morning she helped me pack and she cleaned up the condo as I got ready to check out. She was good about this the entire time she was there, always doing the dishes, sweeping, cleaning and doing my and wingman's laundry. Never asked her to do anything, she just did it.

We never talked about compensation before I picked her up and I asked her what would make her happy. She said she already was happy, she wasn't there for money, I made her cum 100 times in three days and she did not want anything but a promise that I keep in touch and come back and see her again. I had 650,000 in COP left in the safe, so I kept 50,000 ($ 20) for my cab and some food at the airport and gave her the 600,000. ($ 230 usd). She kept saying no, no, but I just stuffed it in her purse and told her to send it home to family if she didn't need it. She liked that idea and was thankful.

Said our goodbyes and she was off to her apartment and me and wingman were off to airport. Check out at condo was nothing, we dropped the keys at front desk and they said thanks. Check in at airport was easy and an hour later both me and wingman were on our separate planes heading home. It worked out well as we both arrived and left on flights within 20 minutes of each other.

Customs in Fort Lauderdale was a joke if you were American. All US passports were greeted with welcome home, no searches, no questions, just ok and go on your way. Considering where we came from, I was surprised.

If you had a foreign passport you were grilled, searched and put through a process.

Shit airport forces everyone arriving into a public area of the airport, so you were forced to go back through security if you had a connecting flight. What non-sense and a massive waste of resources. It also caused a problem for those that bought liquor at the duty free before boarding in Cartagena. If you had carry on, you were screwed, you would have had to pay another $50 to check your bag or forfeit your liquor bottles at security.

I had a 5 hour layover in FL before my 2 hour connecting flight home. I had dreaded this when booking but the time flew by easy enough, had some Burger King and a few smokes and it was time to board before I knew it. All Spirit flights in both directions were on time and we actually left ten minutes early on the return flight from Cartagena. All in all, my first experience on this budget airline was great.

When comparing this trip to the many others I have taken to roughly ten other mongering destinations throughout Europe and Central America, I would place Columbia in the top 3. One of the cheapest destinations I ever visited, beautiful and plentiful women and besides one fleeting moment late at night and in the street, I never felt unsafe or nervous about safety. My only knock would be our choice of where we stayed, which I will follow up on with a review of our condo and the other options that were available. There seems to be some misunderstanding, miss-information or a lack of information on the board here about housing options.

Thank you to everyone who posted information about this destination. It was helpful and it makes things easier for future travelers to know what to expect, what to avoid and how things work. I hope my reports have allowed me to give back to the community that gave so much information and help to me.

Great report. Sounds like you had a grand time. I'm going down in June and wanted to know the name of the restaurant you had the seafood platter from if you remember and about how far is it from the clocktower.

I had offered to fly her in from San Jose but she couldn't get away so she sent me her friends info. I started communicating with her about three weeks before taking the trip. She is a sexy 25 year old, graduated college with a nursing degree and was returning to Cartagena after spending a few weeks with her family in Peru. She starts her new job in a week and I have three nights left in town.

Arrive at the airport no problem and wait. She arrives on time and greets me with a long wet kiss and some hugs. We grab a cab and head back to the condo. I give her some time to unpack, shower and relax. She said she is horny and hungry and I ask which one she wants first. She says she wants sex first then some food. After an hour of sex, which was slow and sexy with a lot of deep kissing, we ended up falling asleep for a few hours. Around 5 pm, we take another shower and off to find some food..[/QUOTE]

This was one of the most enjoyable and thorough Cartagena reports in a long time. Thank you!

[QUOTE=Drf1987;2184124]Great report. Sounds like you had a grand time. I'm going down in June and wanted to know the name of the restaurant you had the seafood platter from if you remember and about how far is it from the clocktower.
Thanks.[/QUOTE]Restaurante Bar El Muelle.

Carrera 1 a # 1 A-23.

Beach El Laguito.

It's at the very west end of Carrera 1 in El Laquito. Basicly, when the road ends, your there, on the left.

A 10 minute cab ride from Clock Tower. (7,000 cop / $ 2.70 usd).

When comparing this trip to the many others I have taken to roughly ten other mongering destinations throughout Europe and Central America, I would place Columbia in the top 3. One of the cheapest destinations I ever visited, beautiful and plentiful women and besides one fleeting moment late at night and in the street, I never felt unsafe or nervous about safety. My only knock would be our choice of where we stayed, which I will follow up on with a review of our condo and the other options that were available. There seems to be some misunderstanding, miss-information or a lack of information on the board here about housing options.
[/QUOTE]Usually you don't want to post listings of chica friendly apartments because its a sure way of getting the rules changed at the building. All it takes is one person to go there and trash an apartment partying or do something crazy. Had that happen before where an apartment building suddenly changed the rules. The reason? Crazy extranjero was caught drugged out of his mind at the pool area with two equally high chicas. Management just said fuck it. Recently that same building has allowed in chicas again after over a year of not doing it.

They are easy to find. A little detective work and persistence. Worse case scenario use a hotel for the first two nights and scout one out.

I remember 3 years ago, when I stayed in a nice condo between Police and Hilton at Laguito, on the side opposite to the sea. (I cannot remember the name, and I would not wish to make its name).

No problems in bringing girls with me. One night, I even took 3 girls: one slept with me, the other two in the living room (I love those groups of girls who are new to the place and not veteran yet).

So what. A day I asked if I could go to the swimming pool with my girl in the morning. The EXCELLENT guy who was renting me the apartment (well known also here, as he is always recommended), even in spite of the fact that he knows me as a reliable guy, who makes not troubles, no noise, etc. , said ok, but also felt the need to give me the strong recommendation to keep a low profile, to ensure that the girl was not looking too "excessive", etc. The condo is attended by families and regular tourists. The last thing the owner wants is to get the complains of families with children because the condo facilities have become a [i]"puteria"[/i].

Tired as seldom I have been, but how could I resist to go recce the Reloy and Elektra?

[QUOTE=BlackPage;2184980]Tired as seldom I have been, but how could I resist to go recce the Reloy and Elektra?[/QUOTE]ELEKTRA is now ELECTRA, in the same glorious location of the Old Golden Times. Besides the name and the location, it has little of the old glorous mithical place.

I went at 3 am, and it was packed. TOO packed. Even difficult to move around. I think it's also a bit smaller, or so it looks. I held my breath when I crossed the door to enter the patio, the fantastic old patio, where I have so many fond memories. It was so packed that I hardly could see if there is any chair or table.

The trick is that there is no cover, so the place drains people from all other places. The barmen were very busy, so I think the business model works (until it will be the time of that kind of tourists who enter and do not drink, you know who).

Being so packed, it is also difficult to point the few girls who deserve attention above others (this is exquisitely personal, you know). However, it's a happy problem of abundance.

I still have to understand it, but my feeling is that it starts to be packed a while after midnight. And this is where the main difference with Old Elektra lies, besides the "k" turned to "c": it's not an after-hour place anymore, but a regular bar (I will check again, to see if I am wrong). This deprives a little bit the charme of the old Elektra, which was closed until 12, and totally empty until 3 am.

One of my chicas I reached out to for pre-trip info told me Venezuelans are leaving as immigration is cracking down.

Also clubs are open until 6 am? Is this true? Evidently the mayor is gone or some shit.

[QUOTE=Hilltopper;2180432]Black Page, this is a public service announcement: Clean-up your inbox to allow space for receiving new messages.[/QUOTE]Where are you?

I PMed you and sent you my phone number, but no reply.

I am now at Cuzco. Jeez I love this place.

I am disappointed of my visit this time. Maybe I have become over-demanding, maybe it's not really as years ago.

FRIDAY
Ok, I found a Venezolana with pervy smile. Not bad, pretty, above average (at Reloy) but not someone to call again. Semi professional in bed for 150k (first offer 200k). She has to go back after the deed because she says she has ber baby at home with babysitter. Nothing to complain, but not one I would take to dinner or to the beach.

SATURDAY and SUNDAY
My fault I came here on elections. Well, not a choice. Work you know? Ley Seca hit hard.
Sat and Sun nites: all bars closed, Reloy Square nearly empty. I wonder why girls do not go out at the Reloy, if bars are closed. Men are still there, no?
Only few desperates, not the best looking so to speak. I could not take anyone. I am getting hyper demanding maybe, but why to spend money for a veteran who at best will just help you to release?

MONDAY
Reloy Square full of talent. Something that hits hard your eyes, but on your first day in Colombia, coming from our Sex Prisons in Europe or USA. At the end, we put on the lenses and things look less astonishinig. Most of them are veterans with months of experience in CTG. I spoke with many, but I always felt somethinig wrong.

Finally I take one from Venezuela. She seems promising as she claims to be new on site. In my room, first I have to literally push her to the shower (WTF! No shower??), then she is adamantine in requiring condom for BJ. My mood is spoiled. I say bye we go. I give her 50 k for taxi and I put her on a taxi (I take another cab, to avoid she also exploits me for the free ride).

I go back to Reloy. I stay in Electra from 2 am to 4 am. Full of talent, but I miss the chance with those 2-3 who really looked over the top. My fault. Missing the right target is never matter of bad luck. It's lack of timeliness and ability.

There was one in red dress and dark skin, pretending to be more elegant than others. I offer a beer, chat, etc. Then how much? "Yo cobro 500 por la hora." WTF!

Finally, I am going home, but I see a young one at Reloy, looking "not so elegant" so to speak. The smile is clean and attractive. The body a bit passed, in spite of the young age. I suggest 100 k and we go to Sol de Las Indias. I don't think it's worth taking her to my apt. In the room, 50k extra makes the magic to do anal. VERRRY GOOD! Her standard smile, put on for regular vaginal sex, turns to an evil face with real moans. That's the therapy.

But, again, should I come to CTG for THIS? My memories talk about fantastic GFE experience here, and even some model-type looking, and trios, party hard all night before going to sleep with the girl to remember for years. Not this time.

TUESDAY
Today! Let's see what the Fate is preparing for me....

RESTAURANTS
Do yourself a favour and go to Cuzco. By far, my favourite place here. The food and ambience are great, classy. And you will love the girls who take you to the table. (You know the type "Watch me I am the Princess")

I am sitting at Cuzco.

The receptionist who welcomed me at the entrance and accompanied me to the table is stunning, but she has that fixed smile and that somehow mechanical slow walking, which make me wondering if she is a replicant....

Those who know the place might weigh in. The dark-skinned receptionist is probably human, but this one?

[QUOTE=BlackPage;2186381]
TUESDAY
Today! Let's see what the Fate is preparing for me....[/QUOTE]The Fate was good. Yesterday the scene looked better at Reloy, but still nothing better than an everall puteria. All veterans, and newer ones already instructed by Veterans (I even had to listen to this, from a couple of 20 yo+25 yo teen looking Venezolanas: "El condom para el sexo oral es PRIMORDIAL", meaning "indispensable".

After having wasted time and money for beers offered to girls classified as "maybe", "better leave" and "definitely not", at 3 am in Electra I am chased by a couple of blonde girls who touch me everywhere, claim to be novias, and offer to do anything for 150 k. Something did not click to me. Call me stupid, but I had the feeling they were trying to steal something from my pockets. Probably impossible here, but who knows. So many girls, no need to regret them. I managed to escape, but with some effort: one even followed me out, discretely until Reloy.

Around 3:30 am, I have the Vision. The hottest I have seen, piel canela but blonde hair. Where did she hide until 3 am?? At 7 am, she told me she was in the VIP area. Ok. I think I missed something.

She smiles, she's hot, she's friendly, she says 200 is ok.

Fuck Miss 500 k who is still there standing with her friend.

We go back to my apartment, we buy a bottle of wine (she wants wine) at Olimpica, we drink on the balcony, we have hot steamy sex like if it was her last night in her life. What else did I want?

Ok, finally a night as it should be here.

[QUOTE=BlackPage;2186767]Ok, finally a night as it should be here.[/QUOTE]That shit with the two pick pockets was a bit disconcerting. Glad it's working out. The rest of the week will be busy at centro up until Sunday.

I'm there in a few weeks but only after the presdential run off election. Don't want to deal with ley seca.

[QUOTE=BlackPage;2186767]

........ we drink on the balcony, we have hot steamy sex like if it was her last night in her life. What else did I want?

Ok, finally a night as it should be here.[/QUOTE]Good to hear. Had several of those type of joyous encounters during my recent visits: one visit in Late April, the other two here in May. Had to move up my most recent visit to the week before you. Not due to Ley Seca (never has seemed to hinder me, but probably because I do repeats with girls from prior trips that I met in the previous month, etc.), but due to my own work schedule.

More times than not I'm with Colombianas, but I did invite back a Venezuelana to the apartment week before last and when she went to put a condom on for oral, I just told her it was so much better without and asked would she give it a try. She did and ended-up eventually taking the whole enchilada and looked quite happy while glancing up at me with her beautiful eyes!

I did go to Electra a few times. Found what you found, which is from 1:00 am to 2:30 or 3:00 am the girl to guy ratio was quite favorable, with many to consider and seats available on the terrace. From around 3:30 or 4 am on, the place was like a can of sardines and way too many guys for my liking.

One night at Reloy there must have been 30 to 40+ police making the rounds checking ID's, targeting the Venezuelan girls. While it certainly dampened the mood and the girls went elsewhere, everyone took it that the police were doing their job and the girls just hit the bars and side streets and then re-surfaced again later.

I'll be back down again in a couple of weeks and will stay thru the next Ley Seca for the voting on the 17th. I've got an abundance of girls to contact for a "private party" back at the apartment, which will be fully stocked so that there will be no worry about needing to buy anything. We can have our own dance floor and VIP section!

From my perspective, there's an abundance of girls and the biggest problem is that I only have one Johnson, who needs more resting breaks as the years roll by!

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2186782]That shit with the two pick pockets was a bit disconcerting. Glad it's working out. [/QUOTE]Most likely it was me a bit paranoid. Who knows.

It happened to me in Medellin*, but in Cartagena it really seems odd. I just had the feeling that something did not click right. Better safe than sorry, even if maybe I lost a splendid night in the middle of two hotties.

*(Two girls met at Lleras: my phone was in her hand during a tight dance, me in the middle of the two. She claimed she avoided it fell down. I am sure I reported that here, but years ago).

The area of El Laquito as a whole has older buildings that have either been remodeled or are being remodeled. There is a lack guest policy attitude at most of the building in this area and some units in numerous buildings are used by working girls providing incall services. No, it's not a bunch of hookers hassling people that walk by, it's not seedy at all. You wouldn't know it if you weren't looking for it. You are encountering them more in their natural habitat as they relax, shop and eat in restaurants. I personally found them unguarded and more natural when interacting with them. You are sure to encounter many beautiful women in this area which makes for some interesting day time and night time opportunities if you got some game.

We stayed in the Marinaire Building, located in El Laquito across the street from Atlantis building. The area is safe to walk at any hour as there is always either people or a taxi or two on the roads, as the end of this one-way street has the popular Hilton hotel.

You are only a 5 minute leisure walk to Playa Hollywood and there are bus stops located along the way. Within 5 buildings in either direction, there is a money exchange, an ATM which limited me to 300,000 per transaction, a small grocery, a few small convenience stores, 3 or 4 small restaurants and a pharmacy. Pretty much anything you need on short notice is available within a one minute walk.

Along with the bus stop, there are always taxis waiting right outside the door. 7 K to Centro and about 5 to 8 minutes. Sometimes the taxi back doesn't quite know the building name. Just tell them the Hilton and they will have to drive right past the building (there is no other way to get to the Hilton). Alert the driver to the building as you get close, you are about 5 buildings on the right before you hit Hilton.

The building itself is a bit dated as most of the buildings in this part of town are. There was obvious signs of remodeling and efforts being made to improve and update the property. There is full time security guard at the entrance who did their business and stayed out of ours. Always polite, respectful and responsive. All guest must sign in and they record the information but do not keep possession of passports or ID's. They will call your unit and just say the name of the guest that is there and ask if OK to let them in.

One thing that did happen, once the same girl came back twice, she was allowed access without the phone call. This is a two edged sword. I am sure they were just trying to be accommodating and it makes the repeating guest feel more welcome but this also places an onus on the guard being aware if other guests still are the unit. One slip up and this will could cause some awkward moments for the renter. As I know his intent was good, I appreciated it since it was clear during the second half of the trip that we had wifed up.

The building has an elevator, button for our floor stopped working on day 2. We took it one flight above and walked down one flight of stairs. Without a word from us, it was fixed the next day. There is a small pool out back with a few chairs but not much seating. It did not seem like they were trying to encourage people to hang there. The pool looked clear, there was no chlorine smell and I did not see a circulating pump. I looked on about 6 other pools at other buildings and many did not have them. I never use public pools or hot tubs so can't attest to the water besides it was clear. Best to avoid these bodies of water and not be the one on the hospital with the flesh eating bacteria.

There is beach access to a small but clean beach through a gate at the back of the property. Normally there is a buzzer to get in and out but the electric latch wasn't working, so there was no way to open it. Had to ask security guy and he came out and did the credit card swipe to "pick" the latch and let us pass. He said the part was on order. No biggie, we walked the "long way" back from the beach, a total of about three blocks.

The beach has about 10 cabanas with two plastic chairs in them. There was lounge style chairs for rent for an additional fee. Gringo price was 20 K cabana and 10 K per lounge. We paid 10 K for the cabana and I had a beach towel so never checked the chair price but I'm sure we could have gotten for half the quote or less. There is a prison looking restaurant at one end, never tried it. The touts and hawks are more bearable and accepted no on first or second command. On weekdays, normal beach hawks, fruit, beer, water, fish, food, and Jet Ski rides. On Fri, Sat and Sun, the hawks for water floats, temp tattoo, hats, clothes and jewelry also showed up. Weekdays bring a Bluetooth speaker and weekends they got music playing. Mixed crowd from child to grand ma with few eye candy opportunities. Mostly Colombians with friends or family. Relaxed and fun.

We stayed in unit 1004 for a week. At first entry, it seemed sterile. It was clean but it did not feel like home. The furniture is a bit dated and not very comfortable for long periods of time. There is a patio overlooking the beach but it only has an old wooden bartop table and two wooden stools. A couple of hammocks or a couch or something would have made this space 100 X better and more functional.

The television cable was spotty, reminded me of direct TV with a rain storm, if you know what I mean. It never actually worked normally our entire stay. The internet was reasonable enough to watch movies on with a small buffer time. Kitchen is small stocked, a few of everything you need. No spice rack besides salt and pepper, a clue about the units use. The bathroom was clean and the shower was HOT all the time!

Bedroom two has an in-suite bathroom, was large and had a walk in closet with a safe. Enough extra room for a guest to dance and be active. Bedroom one has access to the patio and a wall of mirrored closet doors along the bed and also a safe. This room is a little tighter and not much room for dancing and action. The beds were very comfortable and had 4 or more pillows each. What neither had was any kind of blanket or cover besides the sheet. Thought it would bother me but it never did. Both rooms had functional ceiling fans, a / see units, cable TV, safes, alarm clocks and plenty of lighting.

There is a washer and dryer in the closet of bedroom one. We also found hangers for clothes, iron and ironing board, hair dryers and can openers. There was only 2 towels in the unit. We asked for more and got 4 more the next day. Never did see Juan. We knew he wouldn't be there on arrival day and he tried to call us the next morning but we were sleeping it off. He tried again the next night but we had company. He was available by phone if needed and his assistant checked on us every few days.

All in all, it's a mid-level condo that met our needs at a cheap price We paid 630 for a week in a 2 bedroom condo for which we got what we paid for and more. I would say it is 3.5 stars and it would not take much to elevate this unit to a 4 star unit.

The big items needed are a new living room set and some kind of patio furniture. The little things that were missing and the reason for the sterile feel, bath mats, rug in bath in front of sink, hand towels, hand soap, dish soap, laundry detergent, cleaning supplies and paper towels. I get the feeling either the unit has not been rented much or they take everything left behind after every user. We left many things as should have the people before us. Soaps, spices, towels, a bath mat, laundry detergent, paper towel rolls, some cleaning supplies and extra toilet paper. I wonder if the next guy gets them or if the staff takes them home.

Pro tip: Always pull up the felt liner in the safes of your unit, there may be some goodies under there as some things left behind should not be left in public view.

[/QUOTE]The cleaning ladies take all that and anything left in the refrigerator. They consider it a propina.

The first thing I do is buy supplies after arriving. It's pretty normal in Cartagena apartments. The place I usually stay at gives me 2 towels (of questionable quality), 2 rolls of toilet paper, 2 soap bars. I bring my own towels, and buy the rest at the nearest exito.

I stay in Bocagrande. Never tried El Laguito. A couple of chicas I know invited me back to their place in El Laguito after we spend the day at the beach for them to change before we head back to my place. They had these one room studios that felt like they were doing web cam shows or some shit. Of course they would describe it as a PENTHOUSE they are in with all their friends. It's actually a corridor with single rooms they all live in, heh.

I've noticed there's one nice thing about getting a more luxurious apartment. Most chicas do notice and do like to spend time in them. It beats going back to their rat hole. They've all had me take photos of them on their phone posing in the apartment. Instant vanity facebook posts for them. One even took a video and walked around the place.

It then becomes very easy to get them to wife up if that's your thing.

With that said look for deals. I get nice places in Bocagrande that are chica friendly for around 90 $ USD or less. Totally doable with a little research and contacts.

I never use public pools or hot tubs so can't attest to the water besides it was clear. Best to avoid these bodies of water and not be the one on the hospital with the flesh eating bacteria.

There is beach access to a small but clean beach through a gate at the back of the property. Normally there is a buzzer to get in and out but the electric latch wasn't working, so there was no way to open it. Had to ask security guy and he came out and did the credit card swipe to "pick" the latch and let us pass. He said the part was on order. No biggie, we walked the "long way" back from the beach, a total of about three blocks.

The beach has about 10 cabanas with two plastic chairs in them. There was lounge style chairs for rent for an additional fee. Gringo price was 20 K cabana and 10 K per lounge. We paid 10 K for the cabana and I had a beach towel so never checked the chair price but I'm sure we could have gotten for half the quote or less. There is a prison looking restaurant at one end, never tried it. The touts and hawks are more bearable and accepted no on first or second command. On weekdays, normal beach hawks, fruit, beer, water, fish, food, and Jet Ski rides. On Fri, Sat and Sun, the hawks for water floats, temp tattoo, hats, clothes and jewelry also showed up. Weekdays bring a Bluetooth speaker and weekends they got music playing. Mixed crowd from child to grand ma with few eye candy opportunities. Mostly Colombians with friends or family. Relaxed and fun.

We stayed in unit 1004 for a week. At first entry, it seemed sterile. It was clean but it did not feel like home. The furniture is a bit dated and not very comfortable for long periods of time. There is a patio overlooking the beach but it only has an old wooden bartop table and two wooden stools. A couple of hammocks or a couch or something would have made this space 100 X better and more functional.

The television cable was spotty, reminded me of direct TV with a rain storm, if you know what I mean. It never actually worked normally our entire stay. The internet was reasonable enough to watch movies on with a small buffer time. Kitchen is small stocked, a few of everything you need. No spice rack besides salt and pepper, a clue about the units use. The bathroom was clean and the shower was HOT all the time!

Bedroom two has an in-suite bathroom, was large and had a walk in closet with a safe. Enough extra room for a guest to dance and be active. Bedroom one has access to the patio and a wall of mirrored closet doors along the bed and also a safe. This room is a little tighter and not much room for dancing and action. The beds were very comfortable and had 4 or more pillows each. What neither had was any kind of blanket or cover besides the sheet. Thought it would bother me but it never did. Both rooms had functional ceiling fans, a / see units, cable TV, safes, alarm clocks and plenty of lighting.

There is a washer and dryer in the closet of bedroom one. We also found hangers for clothes, iron and ironing board, hair dryers and can openers. There was only 2 towels in the unit. We asked for more and got 4 more the next day. Never did see Juan. We knew he wouldn't be there on arrival day and he tried to call us the next morning but we were sleeping it off. He tried again the next night but we had company. He was available by phone if needed and his assistant checked on us every few days.

All in all, it's a mid-level condo that met our needs at a cheap price We paid 630 for a week in a 2 bedroom condo for which we got what we paid for and more. I would say it is 3.5 stars and it would not take much to elevate this unit to a 4 star unit.

The big items needed are a new living room set and some kind of patio furniture. The little things that were missing and the reason for the sterile feel, bath mats, rug in bath in front of sink, hand towels, hand soap, dish soap, laundry detergent, cleaning supplies and paper towels. I get the feeling either the unit has not been rented much or they take everything left behind after every user. We left many things as should have the people before us. Soaps, spices, towels, a bath mat, laundry detergent, paper towel rolls, some cleaning supplies and extra toilet paper. I wonder if the next guy gets them or if the staff takes them home.

Pro tip: Always pull up the felt liner in the safes of your unit, there may be some goodies under there as some things left behind should not be left in public view.[/QUOTE]I stayed in a different unit at the same building that Juan manages not long ago. Everything Linyjo described was spot on. I did get to meet Juan during my stay and talked to one taxista who happened to know him very well, Juan is a very very nice guy indeed. I'd like to add a couple more points here about the accommodation. Because the building is right next to the ocean, the crushing wave could be noisy for light sleepers. Also the beach in el laguito is not that great comparing to other Caribbean destinations. Even el laguito is only 7 k taxi ride from el centro, it could turn into a 20-30 min. Ride during rush hours. Other than the beach, unlike el Centro full of interesting places and restaurants, there is not much to do. So if you are not particularly a beach person, it could be boring. Don't picture prostitutes running up and down the street, looking for clients. This is an area visited by mostly Colombian families on vacation. For me, I'd look for a place in the old town or close to the old town next time. I know bring back a girl is an issue for accommodation in el centro, but there is short term motel for that purpose.

Also, one of the girls I brought back from the clock tower who was all sweet and GFE, stole a brand new hairdryer I bought at Panama airport before arriving Cartagena. Fortunately it was my last night, and I didn't need it much anymore, LOL. So make sure you lockup important stuffs.

I'm sure I've seen this question asked in the discussion. But the search function won't find it. Is there a way to get a local sim card at the airport? I remember reading they ask for local IDs. Sounds kind of stupid.

No need of registering passport or ID, although now it's getting the norm in most countries.

In Cartagena airport, I do not remember I have seen such a cell phone shop, but you can go to Centro, if you can wait few hours or the next day.

For Cartagena there are stores Avenida San Martin / Carrera 2. This is behind the buildings in Bocagrande. Most will recharge but not sell you sims. There's a hardware store near the Exito at the south end of this street that will sell you sim cards. For around 50 k you can get a sim card and lots of data (around 2-3 GB if I remember correctly).

Your best bet is to get a chica to take you to a store and get you a sim card if you're not sure how to configure it.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2189407]Your best bet is to get a chica to take you to a store and get you a sim card if you're not sure how to configure it.[/QUOTE]I am not sure that the kind of competences, which we seek in chicas we select to stay with us, is the same needed to configure a SIM card. I usually rely on the vendor for that. I would not ask any of the chicas who entertain me at night any technical help on my telecom equipment. :p

I also suggest to bring your telephone or a spare one to the vendor, to activate the data plan and try it before leaving the store.

One more thing is that I usually buy a new SIM card for data, which I use in my mobile wifi modem, and I simply top up my old Movistar card, which I use in an old GSM phone for simple SMS and calling. The latter is at least 5 years old, and (believe it or not) it never expired, even after staying unused and without recharge for more than one year. Today's SIM cards expire and become unusable after few months without usage, but that one must be a fossile, which follows the old rules. Good for me.

The new SIM card, to get the data plan activated, needs a telephone with keyboard and capacity to send / receive SMS. Impossible to do that in the MIFI modem. Therefore, even if I buy only the SIM card for data, I have to bring with me the modem AND the telephone.

Is there a supermarket or supply store in walking distance? Just debating if we should get the supplies on the way from the airport or after settling down.[/QUOTE]There is a small local market just a few doors down. There you can get snacks, drinks, toilet paper, paper towels and such. Pretty much anything you need on short notice can be found in the few stores within walking distance.

There are a few supermarkets in Boca, just a few minutes cab ride, if you want to do a more thorough shopping trip.

From the unit I reviewed earlier, you could not hear the ocean if you closed the door.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2188785]The first thing I do is buy supplies after arriving. It's pretty normal in Cartagena apartments. The place I usually stay at gives me 2 towels (of questionable quality), 2 rolls of toilet paper, 2 soap bars. I bring my own towels, and buy the rest at the nearest exito.

I stay in Bocagrande. Never tried El Laguito. A couple of chicas I know invited me back to their place in El Laguito after we spend the day at the beach for them to change before we head back to my place. They had these one room studios that felt like they were doing web cam shows or some shit. Of course they would describe it as a PENTHOUSE they are in with all their friends. It's actually a corridor with single rooms they all live in, heh.

I've noticed there's one nice thing about getting a more luxurious apartment. Most chicas do notice and do like to spend time in them. It beats going back to their rat hole. They've all had me take photos of them on their phone posing in the apartment. Instant vanity facebook posts for them. One even took a video and walked around the place.

It then becomes very easy to get them to wife up if that's your thing.

With that said look for deals. I get nice places in Bocagrande that are chica friendly for around 90 $ USD or less. Totally doable with a little research and contacts.[/QUOTE]Totally agree. For guys with the proper attitude, the nicer the property is, the harder it is to get rid of the guests. The unit I reviewed at Marinaire Building in El Laquito was suitable enough to accomplish this but it was also one half star short of our standard. Considering it is half of what we would pay at say Jaco Beach in CR or Laguna Beach in DR, it's definitely value for money.

Before my visit, I read everything posted here and in the hotels and condo section. I was left with the impression that El Laquito was the only option for guest friendly, no hassle stays. There seems to be a perception that Bocagrande is a big hassle when it comes to guests. I get the feeling that a lot of the "problems" encountered were more just inexperienced or lazy punters that did not do the proper leg work before hand to be solid in agreement as to what the guest policy of the property is and then what the guest policy of the renter is. You know the type I'm talking about, the ones that think they are going to hooker heaven so every bar is a go-go, every girl on the street is a hooker and every property for rent is a brothel or hump shack.

We asked every cab driver, every working girl and every fellow monger we could over a 7 day period, about this issue. They all said the same thing.

The cab drivers drop mongers and guests at almost every building on the beach. There were only a few that require "all guests to be on the rental agreement".

The girls all said they go to all the buildings down there and that there were just a few with weird rules, like one property that has a rule that guests are ok from 7 am to 10 pm and then they have to leave. (like that makes any sense) A few that require overnight guests out by 5 am. Only a few have blanket no guest policies.

We asked about 10 mongers we found around Bocagrande. One said he got bait and switched, told he could have guests and got a hard time when he brought one back. Claimed he did all the right things before booking to verify and claimed he had emails to prove it and was going to stop payment on his credit card when he got home. The rest said the same thing as each other, they did a little work on AirBnB and VRBO, weeded out the ones that replied no guests allowed, contacted the building itself and the unit renter to verify guest policy. We saw two units from the inside and they were some posh digs. Almost brand new, huge flat screens, modern furniture and small patio's over Hollywood and Bocagrande Beach. Prices after website service fees and cleaning fees, etc, ran into the $120 a night range for 2 bedroom units.

It is not apples to apples in both price and location. It matters what you are looking for. Some want something a bit quieter, less people on the streets, less traffic and noise, a more relaxed and uncrowded vibe with a small private beach. El Laquito is perfect for that, almost like a suburb. Some want more pace, more traffic and noise and more crowded or chaotic scene. Bocagrande fits the bill. The beauty of the area is they are within walking distance (or 2 minute cab ride) of each other, so you are not missing out on one by staying in the other.

[/QUOTE]What actually happens is the local security guy is supposed to go around and knock on doors after the curfew in these buildings. It's both funny and quite moronic. I remember complaining to the security guy about these stupid curfews and he straight up told me, when no one was around, to just ignore the rules.

If you can register her and get her into the elevator its all you really need.

[QUOTE=Drf1987;2184124]Great report. Sounds like you had a grand time. I'm going down in June and wanted to know the name of the restaurant you had the seafood platter from if you remember and about how far is it from the clocktower.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]I too would recommend el Muelle. It has also an upper level with good seafood as well as a beach sunset view. I ate there four times during my 11 day stay in the city.

Hello to you all,

Returning to Cartagena in Sept and would like to meet up with fellow mongers. Got quite a few girls lined up but wouldn't mind meeting anyone for a few beers.

Tom.

A few words about myself. I'm in my mid-50s, and I've mongered very little in the last decade, mostly in Brazil, DR and Peru. I stayed in CTG with a buddy who's not a monger, and who was actually in Cartagena for the history and the beaches. Be forewarned that I'm not capable of juicy, blow-for-blow reports that I enjoy reading from other members. My sexual preferences are simple and boring, and I don't want to invest time and money into this knowing-your-girl-better thing. I know that good things come to those who try harder, but I'm lazy and get tired easily. It's mostly plain vanilla to me. I fuck, I come, she goes. I'm not interested in cuddling and prefer sleeping alone.

So without further ado.

Writing this from Bogota. I had 5 encounters during my stay in Cartagena. All girls had 7-9 bodies. Most had small natural tits. Every single one of them made it a huge point promising a girlfriend experience. None have delivered on that front, but it was still good, no regrets. All but one insisted on a condom for BJ. Everyone tried to get it done with ASAP and switch to fucking to get it over with. All moan too much to the point that I had to tell them to stop, it doesn't help me at all.

Paula from the Clock Tower Plaza was a sweet petite girl who majors in engineering and doesn't like to wear panties under her jeans. A real sweetheart, even though it was all business, LOL. Damage was 150 K plus 20 K tip (taxi).

Bridgit, another Clock Tower pick up (who introduced herself as Maria), was a tall, thin girl with excellent ass and legs, but in a serious need of bigger tits. Giggly and flaky, but asked for money upfront, so after a short argument I put the money on the table and tell her she can get it when she's done. Now, my erection is a fragile thing, so the fucking wasn't as enjoyable as it could've been, as the chemistry was gone. Still, fucked her on the terrace, first with her against the rails then on the table. It was nice, but still too hot, even in the AM.

So after 30 minute of pounding, moved to the bedroom. Put her on her back and told her to squeeze her legs together otherwise wouldn't have cummed at all. That pattern repeated itself with most girls. Afterwards, she was in no rush to go, raided my fridge, then turned on the music and started dancing. Probably would've stayed the night, but, like I said, this isn't my MO. Sent her on her way with 200 K.

And or End (no, not making this up) was another Clock Tower recruit. This one had a nice pair of natural tits, but some minor cellulite down under. No initiative, but was complacent, although her BJ sucked and not in a good way. Still, she tried to please, no complaint there. 150 K.

Kiara from mileroticos the most business-minded girl of all of them. Also petite who promised the world, began with asking for money upfront, so I put it on the table. When we got out of the shower, she counted it and put it in her handbag. That was a real turn off, and I told her so, to which she just smiled. To be fair, she did everything I told her, and in multiple positions, but again, it was not very enjoyable. 150 K.

Karina from Mileroticos is half-Venezuelan with 5 for the face, but 9 for the body. Steamy hot, with a pair of nicely done tits, slender legs, and fantastic ass that I enjoyed pounding her from behind. Unfortunately, when I put her in missionary, got hit with a terrible pussy stink, so told her to squeeze her legs together to finish ASAP or I would've lost the erection. That's a shame, because she was the friendliest provider of them all, and I actually enjoyed talking to her. 120 K + 30 K sin condom (the add-on not worth it).

I also tried to obtain the services of Camilaa a Brazilian Lingum "therapista" highly recommended on the Mileroticos forum. She never responded to my messages, and when I called, said she didn't understand. OK, my Esponol is indeed mal, but I don't know how you "don't" understand massagen, mileroticos and Lingum. There are some serious customer service issues there, or perhaps she has enough clients not to give a shit.

Now, to compensate for these cut and dry report, here is some practical info for newbies that they might find useful. It was my maiden voyage to Cartagena, so hopefully, those who're planning their first visit will find it useful.

I stayed in the same apartment Linyjo did, Marinare 1004. For $90 a night it's worth it. It's not fancy, but has everything you need and then some.

The apartment.

Advantages:

- Liberal guest policy.

- Plenty of hot water.

- Wisper quiet air-conditioners in all rooms.

- Comfortable beds.

- 2 baths.

- Huge oceanfront balcony with a few bar tables and high chairs.

- Well-equipped: big fridge, microwave, coffee machine, toaster (no teapot).

- Washer / Dryer.

- Haven't seen a single roach.

Shortcomings:

- No blankets or hand towels.

- The filter in a coffee machine was not removed and the machine was not cleaned.

- A couple of small things, like a broken night-stand lamp and burn-out bulb.

- Pool is closed at 6 PM or sometimes earlier.

I totally agree with Linyjo that it would take a very little investment to turn it into an upscale apartment. But even as is, I wholeheartedly recommend the place. While there are plenty of upscale listings on Airbnb in this price range, there are also many reviews that state problems with guest policies, hot water, and roaches. Juan is a class act, and he fixed a few things that needed fixing. Besides, it fits my lifestyle ideally.

Centro Historico and Getsemani.

Beautiful! Loved both neighborhoods. Getsemani has more backpacker feel with lots of hostels and cheaper cafes and restaurants. Is Cartagena is a true world-class destination with the old charm. If you tend to get bored with mongering alone during your visit, this is a great place to enjoy different things.

Money.

The ATM near the building (BBBV) gives a great rate (2. 83 on 06.07) and, I believe, no commission. The problem is, it's only 300,000 limit, but it's not per day, so shouldn't be a problem. The rate in Olympico was only 1. 74 if you deduct the commission (my card reimburses for ATM fees).

I find the local money insane. They have 2 design versions for the same bills. I diligently tried to educate myself on fakes before leaving home but threw the caution out of window. It's hard enough to differentiate the money, let alone do counterfeit testings in this heat.

SIM Card.

Got one at supermercado Olympico. 55 mil for 70 minutes and 2 gigs of data. Olympico has a much better choice food-wise than Exito in Laquito. The cab was 5 mil there and 6 on the way back.

Taxis and Uber.

As it's been mentioned here, Uber and cabs charge almost the same, but the Uber's convenience is that you don't need cash. 19 mil from the airport to Laquito and 8 mil to the Centro. Contrary to my expectations, not a single cabby tried to rip us off (until I got to Bogota).

Weather.

It's a fucking sauna all the time. There is no relief even after the sun goes down. I thought Manaus was bad (and it was), but Cartagena is something else. If you are a sweating hog like me. Just be ready. Don't try to see everything in one day. It's just exhausting. The last two days were a tad better, though.

Touts.

Look, this shit is bad. Maybe I would buy more stuff if I didn't know that the moment I display the slightest interest they won't let go. It's not like all touts are like that. Most will leave you alone after one or two "no gracia" but there are enough bad actors to annoy the living hell out of you. But sometimes you see a couple going down the street and 4 or 5 touts are working them over. Jesus Christ!

On the second day we decided to take a boat to Punta Arenas. Walked out of the building, and they attach themselves to us almost immediately. We turned to the beach, 2 or 3 of them follow us. We turn right, then left, hoping to drop them, no dice. We got to the boat and started talking to the pilot. They interfere, I said stop it, I'm dealing with the boater. No way, he just looking at them and lets them negotiate. Paid 60 mil after a brief negotiation. Got to the other side, they are staying with us, walking next to us wherever we go. I feel like I'm going to blow up, but what the fuck do you do! We sat down at the table, the guy said take it for 5 mil, then the fucking leech got close and they start talking, next thing I know it's 50 mil for the fucking table and 2 chairs! Got to another area, the leech says it's free if you consume. Brings us the menu. 45 mil for the cheapest meal, 7 for Club Colombia, 4 for water. I told him, nice precio especial gringo, he just giggles, brought it down to 70 for both of us. The fish was good, though.

Beaches.

Never made it to Playa Hollywood because fuck the touts. We spent a day upstairs at LE Muelle, at the end of Laquito, and it's a good set up if you want a day on the beach in peace and quiet. I set up Tinder with a local phone number and had a lot of matches in the first few minutes but never used it. Didn't get to try Photoprepagos either. Between the Clock Tower and Mileroticos there are enough pussy to last for months.

[/QUOTE]The touts followed you to the island? Were they on the same boat? I've never had them be that persistent. Did you say something rude to them? I just smile and say no gracias and they move on. These guys had it in for you if they actually traveled to the other island and got prices raised on you. All these islands and beaches have different "groups" running them. The people on the islands will even say they are not from Cartagena (and they're right since many of them don't live on the mainland).

It's cooler November to April. When I went back in February it was close to 16 Celsius at night with the cool breeze. I'd say from now until November its going to be way fucking hot. This is one reason I may skip my September trip and wait until November.

And yes 5 mil is a deal for a table. It's usually 10 mil to get a table and umbrella.

Now that you've asked, one of the touts didn't get with us to the island. Another one did, a younger guy. Also, there was an old dude, who got in the boat for no apparent reason. They seemed to be from Tierra Bomba, not Cartagena because they didn't go back with us. But yes, the old one and the young one went in the boat and were handling us on the island. They were following us wherever we'd go, it was ridiculous.

Glad it's not always that hot in Cartagena. I'll return then. Beautiful place!

Day 1.

I got to Cartagena on Saturday afternoon and it was just as I remember from my last visit. After I got settled I went out and walked around. My first stop was the clock tower. As soon as I got there the touts started in with the cheap trinkets but my standard phrase is "no pesos" they will intern say "dollars" and I'll shake my head no and they'll move on. Once I familiarized myself with everything I went to a little chicken restaurant not very far away and had a bite. After a nap and a shower I headed back to the clock tower to a chorus of Rastaman and Bob Marley because of my dreads. When I got to the tower one of the club promoters told me it was a little early for the girls and they would be out around 11. An hour later I came back and yes all those beautiful girls were there ready and waiting to please. As I made my way around this short not very attractive pipehead girl walks up. It looked like she had on clown makeup, her ass was non existent and I know chubby men with more boobs than her. She begins he spill about me taking her to the hotel for suckie fuckie. I politely decline and walk down toward the Hard Rock to get away from her. I stood there with the rest of the crowd watching some guy dance for a few minutes and low and be hold who is standing there? Pipehead ! She is relentless but once again I escape by leaving the area and going across the street where the boats are. After about twenty minutes I head back over and dodge all the guys trying to get you to come to their disco, and I see a tall big boob girl Daniella with a super cute face. He butt wasn't as big as I like them but there was enough back there. She starts right in and says I'll fuck you good. We negotiate a price and off we go. When we get in the room, and she lets those funbags free my mouth almost hit the floor. After she took a quick shower, she hopped on the bed. I was already semi hard and as soon as I rubbed on that smooth skin I rose completely up. She grabbed the condom but first said I suck without for extra. I said no. She quickly put the condom on and began sucking. It was decent but not the best. After a few more gulps we got in mish and got to it. She started with the fake moaning, which made me push it in harder and deeper and the fake moans turned real either that, or she's a hell of an actress. We went at it like that for a good little while then she decided she wanted to get on top which was fine with me. As soon as she started riding, those big jugs were slapping me in the face and I loved it. She tried kissing me but I wasn't down with that, I don't know whose pecker might have been in her mouth earlier. Anyway the riding got quite intense to the point that we were both sweating. After a few more minutes I motioned for her to finish me off with her hand. She pulled the condom off and started stroking like my pecker had the antidote. When I finally exploded it got all over my stomach and her thigh. She seemed to like it because she rubbed it in. We laid there for a while then she jumped up and took another shower while I got dressed. I'd take another shower in my room. On the walk back we stopped at a store and grabbed a beer which we shared as we walked back. When we got to the square I gave her a kiss on the cheek and we went our separate ways. And guess who was standing there as soon as I got through the crowd pipehead. She had the same spill which I quickly shut down and got the hell out of dodge. After an early morning flight, a lot of walking and some banging I was worn out so I took a shower and hit the bed. But like the great Ice Cube once said today was a good day.

Day 2.

I'm not a big breakfast guy but it was free so I got up and headed down for the buffet. When I walked in the restaurant I thought to myself goddamn at every turn there is a good looking woman. The girl working as the hostess in the restaurant was gorgeous. She had long hair with a nice round butt, and the cutest little face. If she lived in America some sap would quickly make her his wife. After breakfast I went back to bed and didn't wake back up until 12:30. Aaaa vacations. When I woke up I decided I'd walk down to the beach. I knew what to expect and the touts didn't let me down. At every turn, they were hocking something crabs, beads, massages, water, shirts, hats, (I did see a couple slugs wearing those hats on the flight back) beer, party favors, girls. I did eventually buy a bottle water on the walk back because like we all know it is hot as heck down there. When I finally did get back my shirt was soaked from sweat. I quickly jumped in the shower then took a nap. When I got up I headed back to the clock tower to get something to eat. The girls weren't out yet so after I found something I headed back to my room to watch the Yankee, Met game. When the game ended it was time to head back. Now because of a catastrophic financial set back I knew I wasn't going to be partaking in any action tonight I just wanted to window shop. If I could've gotten my money back for this trip I wouldn't have even went. Can't cry over spilled milk though. When I get there I can see the girls standing, so I decided to walk through one of the breeze ways under the clock. Who do I run in too? Pipehead and a friend damn it! Now the friend wasn't bad and maybe just maybe a threesome but I quickly snapped out of that. Again she starts first rubbing on my chest then motioning to go too the hotel. Again I try to tell her I don't have any pesos but she continues. Somehow I get away and go watch the dancing guy in front of the Hard Rock I even walk a little further away to get out of sight but as I was walking back there she is again. At this point I'm just laughing and wondering does this girl have a GPS on my ass DAMN! After I tell her for the upteenth time that I don't have any money she finally gets the picture and begins trying someone else. As I'm walking over to an empty bench I see Daniella run up and give me an hug then ask me if I've fucked anyone tonight I tell her no then she runs back over to her friend while I go sit down so I can ogle at all these beautiful girls standing around. In America these cows have hashtag #metoo over there they give you a look as to say pound #metoo. Anyway as I'm sitting there I try not to make eye contact with any of the girls because they are lustily staring at me. As I sit on the bench I notice another tall brown skin girl with one of the roundest asses I've ever seen walking with a guy. She literally eye fucks me as she is walking by. I just shook my head and started cursing the person who has me in this financial crisis. As I'm cussing tall brown comes back and sits on the bench across from me then begins fiddling with her phone. I sneak a peak and her face is just as stunning as her body. She had one a pair of super short shorts that showed the bottom of her ass and all I could think about was pounding her from behind. Luckily I am disciplined with my money so after sitting there and admiring her beauty I get up go find a tout to get a coke. After drinking the coke I head down the ally where the love motel is. The walled city is huge, I had never been pass the motel and there were more bars and restaurants that I didn't know were there. It wasn't late but I decided that was enough I was going to walk back up and take one more look at the lovely girls before going in. And you guessed it, as I'm walking up the alley goddamn PIPEHEAD and friend are coming down the alley. SHIT! Again she starts first rubbing my chest then my pecker. This time I tell her look mañana if I see you mañana we'll do something. I had no intentions of doing anything with her though. As her and her friend walk off I look back and notice this older white gentleman just giggling to himself about what he had just witnessed. Anyway I go back ogle one last time before I head back to my hotel. Good day, could have been great if I had gotten tall brown, but it is what it is.

Day 3.

I wake up and shoot down to breakfast so I can look at the breakfast girl she just seems so sweet. It was raining so after breakfast went back to bed. As I was sleeping there was a knock on the door. It was housekeeping and this girl was good looking goddamn. Most of this day consisted of watching youtube or UFC on TV. I did go walk around the clock tower to see which restaurant I wanted to hit for dinner. I eventually decided on LaPiccola that pizzaburger is just awesome. After I ate I sat on a bench to enjoy the atmosphere and got invited to go on a party bus where anything supposedly goes. A few minutes later I got invited to come watch a cock fight. I thought about the cock fight but when he said they'd also have party favors at the cock fight I said no and headed back to my room. I quickly got bored in my room and headed back down to the tower hoping the girls were out but it was way to early so I sat around watching people come and go before going back to my room again. At around 11 I looked out my window and the place looked like a ghost town. I knew something would be popping by now at the tower so I headed back. I cautiously peeked around the corner to make sure pipehead wasn't in sight. Luckily she wasn't so I made my way around and got the pound #metoo look from several very hot girls. This was a tough choice because this was my last night and I wanted to go out with a bang. I went back out and sat on a bench facing the street and watched the yellow cabs race each other. Why do they blow their horns so much? As I'm sitting there two average looking girls both mid thirties walk over. One sits on one side of me and the other on the other side. They quickly start talking about a threesome and suckie fuckie. I'm intrigued but I use the line I used on pipehead "no pesos. " They quickly get the picture and move to another bench. I sit there for a few minutes then get up and head back to see if any new girls have come out. As I'm walking to an empty bench, I see this drop dead gorgeous girl walking to the same bench. We sit at the same time and my heart is pounding this girl is hot. She's dressed nice, her ass is perfect, her toes are cute, her boobies are perky, she has long blond hair, I mean she is just a doll. I knew I had to say something so I asked if she spoke English. She sweetly said no. Right then I could tell she was a sweetheart so after a minute or so I asked her if she was working. She nodded yes then she asked how many hours. Since neither of us could understand the other, we used her phone and figured everything out. And like she said we vamosed. Her name was Steffiana and she was from Medellin. As we were walking I noticed some horse shit in the street and told her to watch out. She said poo poo and that even sounded sexy. When we got in the room the first thing she said was relax she knew a few words of English. After she took her shoes off, I helped her untie the top part of her dress and boy were those boobies nice. She was completely shaven and that cooch was just as pretty as she was. She gave me a nice long blowjob before eagerly jumping on top to ride. I was rock hard and when I got in her she let out a moan. This wasn't fake. She was riding like a true champ. She then asked if I wanted to switch positions which I quickly agreed to. She got on all fours but I flipped her on her back and went in from the side. I started really giving it to her then. I peeked up and her eyes were closed and she was grunting and groaning which really turned me on. I kept pushing until my load was blown. After that we gave each other a smile and a long hug. She then motioned that her feet were hurting from the shoes she had on so I gave her a quick foot rub. She has some soft pretty feet. I put my clothes on after that while she went to the bathroom to cleanup. I couldn't get enough of that naked body when she came back to get dressed. Once she was dressed, I asked her if I could take a photo she said yes only if I was in it so we took two quick shots with my phone. As we walked out of the hotel she typed in her phone if I would be around tomorrow, sadly I told her I was leaving the next day damn. On the way back I asked her if she wanted something to drink, she got a water and I a coke. Once we to the square we said our goodbyes and she went her way and I went mine. As I'm walking out who is standing there? Yes pipehead . I couldn't make this shit up if I wanted to. This time I did a Larry David shtick acting like I was actually looking for her but she wasn't around. I don't know if she bought it or not but I got the hell on.

All in all it was a fun few days, I was called Rastaman so much that I thought it was my name, I was offered cocaine and marijuana at every turn, I had to beat off touts, I was invited to a cock fight, I was even stalked by a hooker with a pipehead, but most importantly I had two great experiences with two supremely hot girls the second of which was just unbelievable. Even a couple of my female friends I showed the picture to were like damn she is hot. I might make that trip again in October or I might hit Medellin my money should be right by then. Where ever it is I know Colombia is a place that I will forever travel too.

Loving these reports guys, very helpful for when I go over there!

[QUOTE=Drf1987;2192160]Day 1.

I got to Cartagena on Saturday afternoon and it was just as I remember from my last visit. After I got settled I went out and walked around. My first stop was the clock tower. As soon as I got there the touts started in with the cheap trinkets but my standard phrase is "no pesos" they will intern say "dollars" and I'll shake my head no and they'll move on. Once I familiarized myself with everything I went to a little chicken restaurant not very far away and had a bite. After a nap and a shower I headed back to the clock tower to a chorus of Rastaman and Bob Marley because of my dreads. When I got to the tower one of the club promoters told me it was a little early for the girls and they would be out around 11. An hour later I came back and yes all those beautiful girls were there ready and waiting to please. As I made my way around this short not very attractive pipehead girl walks up. It looked like she had on clown makeup, her ass was non existent and I know chubby men with more boobs than her. She begins he spill about me taking her to the hotel for suckie fuckie. I politely decline and walk down toward the Hard Rock to get away from her. I stood there with the rest of the crowd watching some guy dance for a few minutes and low and be hold who is standing there? Pipehead ! She is relentless but once again I escape by leaving the area and going across the street where the boats are. After about twenty minutes I head back over and dodge all the guys trying to get you to come to their disco, and I see a tall big boob girl Daniella with a super cute face.

Where ever it is I know Colombia is a place that I will forever travel too.[/QUOTE]I like your report, but it does not sound like you got the most out of your visit. I have been to Cartagena at least 35 times in the past 15 years and have found times have changed a bit, but still find many things have not changed.

I have an advantage of being married to a wonderful and open minded Colombiana, so I have been exposed to many different sides of the city. I have partied with locals where they have just a hole to wizz down and dirt streets. Not one time did I feel concerned for my safety and usually ended up getting schnockered drinking rum while playing cards. Their life is a struggle, but always willing to share what little they have. I mention that since I know where some of these touts live and whatever they can make during the day must provide for the family. I think that is why I see what they have to sell and politely decline if I am not interested in their wares.

We have a house about 20 minutes from the beach which we have renovated and rent out the garage area to a dental practice and my wife will have her business. It is fun to be in that area of town when the Colombian national team plays. Not more than 10 minutes away is Roccio's which has many lovely young ladies. Also there are other casas and Pley Club. I was nervous at first going to a casa there, but the taxi driver will wait for you and look after your safety.

If you get bored during the day, head to one of the many malls and do some "bird" watching. Many fine ladies working and walking around. One time, while my wife was trying on clothes, I was given a phone number by one of the young girls working in the store. Now I am not a young dude or in great shape, but I always have a smile and practice my Spanish on any young lady willing to listen.

I have had many good encounters on the streets of Laquito by just walking and saying hello to women walking by. I would also like to fish for talent by sitting on a stoop and wait for them to walk by.

I just want to say, there is more to the action in Cartagena than just the Clock Tower, Hollywood Beach or the discos. I am always wiling to assist fellow travelers when I am in town, so just post when you are in town.

[/QUOTE]I think saying 'no pesos' is a bit abrupt. Putting on a smile and just treating them like people is much better. I've had small talk with some of them because it must be boring for them to walk around all day trying to earn a little money. I've had touts yell my name during the day as I walk by and give me a friendly wave. Some of these guys I never bought from but I go there so many times a year I found its better to be on good terms with the locals.

Also I have a sneaking suspicion a few of them are more than what they seem. Like the one guy who sells shirts by an Exito in Bocagrande. I can't imagine he earns anything but he's always there.

I'm headed down soon and will make the most out of the clock tower. My biggest pain in the ass is I know too many chicas who are there so showing up anywhere with hookers now means I have to say Hello, to a few. As one Colombiana likes to say: "Tu demonio. ".

Great report Xpartan, thanks for sharing. You included a lot of information.

I enjoy reading all the reports and the diversity of the experiences. People are different so it is not unexpected that we find the spectrum of experiences that we do.

When I got to the end of your report, I walked away thinking, You got exactly what you wanted but I also was left with the impression that despite saying "no regrets"; in the end, you felt a bit let down?

What hotel is nice, on the beach and girl friendly? Thanks in advance.

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2167647]When talking pricing, lets not forget that we are not buying a widget off Amazon, where the price is the same for everyone.

You think a guy that looks like John Goodman is paying the same as a guy that looks like Brad Pitt?

Some obese, hairy and smelly John, with a dour demeanor, that hasn't brushed his teeth and reeks of cigarettes, reports that prices are going through the roof! Not a single girl at the clock tower would go for less than 300,000 for ST. He reports the girls are all business and wanted to get back to the tower for more work.

Brad, a reasonable looking bloke, well groomed, nice clothes, smells good and has a fun and upbeat vibe, reports that you can have the pick of the litter at the clock tower for 100,000 to 150,000. He reports that the girls like to hang out and party, can't get rid of them, they ask to spend the night and don't charge extra.[/QUOTE]This comment is absolutely spot on. Pricing without doubt differs depending on the quality of the customer. Many of the comments made about prices, standard of the girls and so on I have taken with a huge pinch of salt. For me, if you are well presented, have a happy and fun demeanour about you, girls are far more likely to be attracted to you and offer you a better service. Oddly enough, whilst it is about earning a living for these girls, they also like to spend a day having fun and being treated nicely by a gent.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2135394]So "Rosario Island" can mean a lot of different places. You won't meet hookers at any of these places. You need to bring them with you. Playa Blanca is a nice beach with lots of tourists and 10 x the number of touts than the beaches in Bocagrande.

Choices:

(1) Get to know a chica and have her bring her prima (cousin) or some other person out with you to Playa Blanca. That extra person can watch your stuff when you go into the water with her.

(2) Rent a boat to take you to these places with chicas. If you're going to rent a boat expect about 1. 5 million pesos just for the boat itself. You should ask to stop in Gruta Azul which is a very chill quiet beach on an enclosed island. Grab a jet ski, take your chica out to one of the other islands and fuck her like a wood pecker behind a tree or some shit.

Good luck.[/QUOTE]Good advice here. Back to Cartagena in Sept and looking forward to getting more involved this time around. Did you hire a boat at all? Could you recommend any particular boat operators?

Has anyone had any issues bringing a guest back to the holiday in express lately? I'm currently staying at the Hampton and although there's no chica fee, depending on who the security guard is that night, he can still hassle you and come up to the lobby with you just to make sure you sign in your chica. Was about to reserve a room at the holiday in express for a few nights and wanted to know what experiences any of you gents have had there.

Thanks in advance.

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2193686]Great report Xpartan, thanks for sharing. You included a lot of information.

I enjoy reading all the reports and the diversity of the experiences. People are different so it is not unexpected that we find the spectrum of experiences that we do.

When I got to the end of your report, I walked away thinking, You got exactly what you wanted but I also was left with the impression that despite saying "no regrets"; in the end, you felt a bit let down?[/QUOTE]Thanks Linyjo! No, not really, other than the heat and the touts occasionally got under my skin. In fact, I'm thinking of making my way back there in the winter, and perhaps even invest some time in some pre-trip Tinder penpaling. We'll see!

I just got back from Cartagena.

Just some key points:

[B] Low season[/B]

Not as busy as it was during the first few months of the year. Even the touts I chatted with all agreed it wouldn't really pick up until August. LOTS of chicas in the old city at night and not many guys / customers. I was really impressed at the ratio this time around. Although it's always mostly been this way, it was very noticeable this trip.

One thing that did strike me as odd is I didn't see as many hotties this time around. Maybe I just wasn't looking closely enough.

[B] Elektra [/B]

I won 3 milion pesos playing Blackjack so got with a Venezuelan chica I have been banging since last year and partied. We hit the town around 11 pm and by around 1 AM we stopped by Elektra. There's a 'VIP' section in the back. It only cost 20 k to get in. Essentially a VERY dark lounge with a unisex bathroom at the back of it. There was only one other dude there with a couple of chicas. Weirdly enough chicas were coming in and out (and I'm pretty sure not paying 20 k to get in). I was pretty plastered by then so my end of the lounge eventually had some five chicas dancing and having fun. I got some bottle service. It was actually really cheap. I think I ended up paying 200 k for the entire tab but that's what happens when all you have is a couple of bottles everyone is sharing.

All through the night the chicas that joined us would make out with me and then ask if they can go home with us (my Venezuelana and me) I eventually settled on a friend of hers and got 3-way action back at the apartment. They were both way too fucking high on pot. One of them walked into the glass door coming in from the balcony. Luckily she wasn't hurt. Just made me LOL.

[B]Punta Arenas[/B]

The trips over to Punta Arenas varied in cost (20 k or 30 k per person). I realized it depended on the number of passengers currently booked. With that said you can get a private trip with less than 100 k (around 80 k) if you show up early enough or know the dudes running the boat. Don't expect the entire trip to be private. On the way back we shared with a group of passengers.

There is one thing I forgot to mention in my report. There is a hotel to the right of the spot where the boats drop off folks on the beach in Punta Arenas. The grounds looked very nice, with a pool and Jacuzzi, so I went to the receptionist to inquire if I could use the instalaciones in exchange for consumption (I did something like that in DR at Playa Dorada). He said no, but we could use the facilities for 30 K each. It sounded like a bargain to me to be able to lounge around the pool with access to showers and clean toilets, right in front of the beach. And the prices for food and drinks were cheaper than what my touts quoted me. Unfortunately, we never came back.

[QUOTE=JohnnyWishBone;2195570]Good advice here. Back to Cartagena in Sept and looking forward to getting more involved this time around. Did you hire a boat at all? Could you recommend any particular boat operators?[/QUOTE]I hired a boat back in November. It was 1. 5 million pesos for the whole day. It was a small cruiser that came with two crew members. It had seating in front and in the back. I'd say you could probably fit ten people on it. It was me, four other chicas, and the two guys running the boat. I can't recommend anyone. Google searches showed about $500 USD being charged for the same type of boat, maybe a little less depending on the time of year.

Remember everything else is on you. You tell them where you want to go and you negotiate prices with any additional services at the islands. If you can't speak Spanish I'd get an English speaking tout to arrange and go with you. I would avoid any disagreements with the locals further out on the islands, heh. You can visit Cholon if you want an island to party on. Or Gruta Azul if you want some place quiet. They can even take you to Isla Baru's playa blanca but further away from the crowds.

Upside is you can bring your own food and drinks on board. Everything is cash as the islands don't have any ATMs that I've seen. Bring a wad of pesos with you.

It is worth doing once for the experience. Otherwise I highly recommend finding a good spot on Punta Arenas. It's on the island just south of El Laguito.

Posted this in the Medellin thread also.

Had a great first trip to Colombia mid-June for 6-days, two in Cartagena and four in Medellin. My buddy and I are experienced mongers having been to Costa Rica, Panama, DR, St. Maarten, Curacao, multiple times over the past decade, Colombia has been high on our list of destinations but we have not been able to pull it off until now. It was worth the wait and can't wait to go again.

A little background, I am early 40's, gringo with basic to conversational Spanish, by friend is early 50's, Latin with fluent Spanish. We are both married so not interested in networking on Facebook, Tinder or Colombian Cupid, lining up GF Chicas and building a contact list for future trips. We are in-and-out, fuck as many as we can in a few short days, and forget them. It's not everyone's style, but works for us. So here was our trip.

Day 1- Get into Cartagena mid-afternoon, change a $100 at the currency exchange just to have a few pesos ($2,600 exchange) and hop a taxi to our hotel, Torre de Reloj. We love to be as close to the action as possible, and the clock tower is ground zero for chicas, so with balconies looking out onto the square, it doesn't get any better. Rates were high at around US $90 a night, but it was only for 2-nights so we didn't mind. Third floor rooms with no elevator kind of sucked, but the rooms were decent. We took chicas in and out of the hotel no problem, they kept their ID's until they left, but at checkout they tried to charge us a whopping $90,000 COP per chica fee, which we argued like crazy. The guy at checkout we had not seen the whole trip, and he insisted we were told this from the beginning. We refused to pay it but are watching the credit card to see if they bill it through there. If they do, we will dispute the charges. Fuckers!

Anyhow. We change more money at the exchange next to the hotel where we get $2,700 rate. Have dinner at a nice restaurant in Boca Grande and back to the hotel where we walk the town and check the scene. It was still a bit early for the chicas so we explore and eventually hang at the bar area in front of the Hard Rock until the girls start to roll in around 11 ish. We walk the area some more and eventually I grab a tall spinner from Cali. Asks for $250 k but we agree to 2-hours for $200 k. My buddy grabs a chica also and we all head up to the rooftop bar of the hotel for some drinks. My friends chica is much more fun and personable than my girl, who was all business. I finally take her to the room and after a shower we look to start the action, and she tells me she doesn't have any condoms. I almost threw her out of the room but as a last ditch effort, I go to my buddy's room next door where his chica has condoms so I bum one. I almost started a double team with his girl but I go back and get my first nut out with my chica and send her packing. What a dud! We have to be up early the next day so I call it a night and don't bother going back down again, first night was a bit disappointing.

Day 2- We have a commitment that takes up our whole day, but by 8 pm we are back at the hotel. Get showered and grab dinner, and somehow my buddy runs into his girl from the night before. He likes her so agrees to go for another round, she knows I had a crap time the night before so she texts one of her friends to come to the hotel. About 15-minutes later her friend shows up, she is 20 and a cute "girl next door" type looks but a tiger in bed. Great DFK, BBBJ, passionate chick. Finally Colombia is on the rebound. Later I find out my buddy had a threesome with his girlfriend and another of her friends, full GFE, PSE, girls snorting lines off his dick, fucked both in the ass, the works! He said it was one of the best threesomes of his life, and he has had plenty over the years, believe me. After we chill for a bit and recover, we head down to Isis strip club to check the scene, we had a beer or two but it's the typical clip joint for American tourists, I don't remember the prices but I think beers were around $20 k and girls were $300-400 k COP I think. We leave and head to Dolce Vita. I liked this place a lot, probably because it had A / C! Cartagena is hot as fuck, and I felt like I was sweating my ass off everywhere I went. We hang for a good hour and have several rounds of drinks, I grab a gorgeous blonde in a sexy white outfit and get her a few drinks. My initial impression was this was a freelance bar, where girls would go back and forth between here and the clock tower. Apparently I was wrong, and the girls at Dolce Vita work for the club only. I agree to $200 k for my girl and upon leaving, they try to get me to pay a $100 k exit fee. I refuse to pay and tell her forget it, I will find someone else outside the club and basically walk out. She talks to the bartender briefly and runs after me, basically saying we consumed enough alcohol while we were there that the club will let her leave without an exit fee. Whatever. Anyhow, we go back to the hotel and she was awesome, even better than the previous girl. Great DFK & BBBJ, only disappointment is no anal.

Later we head back down again and walk around a bit to check the scene. We stray away from the clock tower and end up down the block somewhere, eventually smoking some weed with some skanky chicas on the corner. One of them convinces my friend he can fuck her up the ass for $100 k so he agrees to take her back, so I reluctantly end up with her friend. She was actually cuter than my buddy's girl but said "no cula" for her but BBBJ no problem. My girl was pretty good actually but my friends girl sucked, no BBBJ, no anal, and my friend threw her out without even fucking her. Hey, it's cool if you don't do BBBJ or anal, but don't promise it on the street and then get to the room and refuse. WTF! We call it a night as its already around 4 am and we have to be at the airport to catch our flight to Medellin by 7 am so we only get about 2-hours sleep.

Overall Cartagena is beautiful but hot as fuck! It's so hot and humid I was generally uncomfortable the entire time outdoors, even at night. There is a wealth of talent at the clock tower but it's hard to determine chemistry with the chica in this setting, kind of like a Casa it's a "grab and go" type environment. If you approach one girl in a group of 3 or 4 the others will scatter like cockroaches, it's kind of funny actually. Thursday night around 1 am I counted around 70 girls in the square and even at 4 am there were still 30-40 around, I can only imagine what the place is like on the weekends. Dolce Vita I liked better because you can have a drink and socialize to get a better connection with the chica before committing to her, but to each his own. Overall I would not go back to Cartagena as a mongering destination, too touristy, inflated prices and too fucking hot!

Day 3 - Medellin at last! Been dying to go here for years, and finally here after a short 1-hour flight from Cartagena. Staying at the Mansion 2 and they arrange a driver to pick us up for $75 k. Fernando was waiting when we arrived. I walked out of the airport and the weather was perfect, low 70's, no humidity and a slight chill in the air. I was in heaven. Shortly afterwards I discover the airport is a good 2,000 ft higher than the city, it's at 7,000 ft and the city is 4,900 ft, so it's much cooler here, damn it. Anyhow, Medellin is warmer but overall comfortable, nothing like Cartagena. We get to the hotel around noon but our rooms won't be ready till 4 pm. We grabbed our cash and passports, left our bags with the office, and walked down Poblado avenue to the outdoor complex to the currency exchange (2,750 was the best exchange rate we got) and pretty decent since the current rate was 2,900. We changed some cash and walked to Santa Fe mall across the street, awesome 5-story shopping mall. I felt like I was back in the states. Walked to Hard Rock and had lunch and watched a World Cup game, then back to the hotel and got settled. Freshened up and grabbed a cab down to Centro as I was dying to hit some Casas. I did my homework before the trip and knew there were 5 Casas within walking distance of each other, and located them on Google Earth "street view" so I knew exactly what they looked like and could navigate the area comfortably.

First up was New Life. Decent lineup with around 15 girls, my scale was 5 to maybe 7.5. It's hard to remember all the girls names so after they introduce themselves one at a time we ask for a full lineup. I grab a dirty blonde Paisa looking chic who seemed like a nice personality and off we go. Decent enough room, a bit warm with a wall fan but clean and has its own bathroom and shower. Now this being my first time in a Casa, once we get in the room I tell her (in Spanish) I want a full hour, do I have to pay now or later? "Quiero un hora, tengo que pagar ahora or despues? She basically tells me $100 k which I replied its only $80 k for the hour, the rest was propina. OK fine, I give her $100 k and we have a good session, a crappy 10-second BBBJ but aside from that she was good. After the session and a shower we leave the room and I go to the window to pay for the drinks I ordered earlier. The bill is like $120 k and I tell them I gave the girl $100 k already. Now she is telling the manager the $100 k was propina for her and I have to pay the regular tab. I get fucking pissed! One of the working girls comes over and translates, her English was really good actually, and I explained what happened. She said the girl is telling her I agreed to pay her $100 k for BBBJ, which I said was ridiculous, why would I pay $80 k for an hour fuck and $100 k for a BBBJ, that is outrageous, "Not really, I charge $50 k" she says. Anyhow, after a 5-10 minute heated exchange, we agree the girl will pay the $80 k from the $100 k I gave her, I paid the balance of the tab for the drinks, and gave the girl an additional $30 k, so she ended up with a $50 k propina. Before leaving the Manager apologized to my friend and asked him to tell me it won't happen again, please come back. A word to the wise, in the Casa, pay the Manager directly afterwards, do not pay the girl directly! Anything you give her is considered propina. These fucking girls are hustlers, it's a tough life so I guess I can't blame them. I feel management handled it well but regardless it left a bad taste in my mouth and I didn't go back.

Anyhow, we grab a drink at the Cafateria on the corner of Cra. 45 & 56 to recover some, then right across the street to checkout Coffee Shop which is the casa in the brick building that says "Bliss Suite Hotel. " It's on the ground floor but the place is a dive, 6-7 girls but nothing we liked so we passed. By this time it was around 6:30 and I knew most of the places close around 7-8 pm so we hurry down the street to Aiffe. A bit better than Coffee Shop but not as nice as New Life, 7-8 girls and there was a super tall chic in red lingerie that caught my attention, she had to be close to 6 ft with no heels and she had on huge glasses that made her look like Wonder Woman. I had to have her! She told me she was from Medellin but later admitted she was from Venezuela. Nothing special in the bedroom, no BBBJ but nice eye candy in all positions. I suspect she would be a better performer if I caught her fresh but I know it's the end of the day and I'm starting to take longer to cum now so she earned her cash for sure. I gave her a $20 k propina.

I'm not sure if I have the name correct but we head down to Club de Amigas on Carrera 45, #57-55. This was a pleasant surprise, they had probably 10-12 girls, 2-3 were fuggly as fuck, but there were 2 that I really liked, one was a 7 and one was a 8 on my scale. I really wanted to session with them but no way could I fuck after my last session with no recovery time. It was around 7:30 ish and they were almost closing so we said we would come back. We scurry down to Sexy Amiga's, again not sure if I have the name correct but the one on 45 the #57-67 but it was closed. We grab a cab back to the hotel and check the Mansion cave. At least 2 guys to every girl there and most of the chicas were paired up already, I don't see anything of interest and I'm exhausted so call it an early night and head back to Mansion 2 and crash. The next morning I find out my friend had Robert at Mansion 2 call a girl for him, I think he did a todo la noche but can't remember.

Day 4 - I'm up early and glad I got a good night sleep to recover, the girl makes me some eggs, toast, fruit & fresh orange juice for breakfast, and I relax and check emails till my friend is ready. We grab a cab down to Santo Domingo metro station to take the cable cars up to the top of the mountain, it was a nice experience. Oddly we have to pay for the tickets, take the cable car up to one stop, get out and make a long line to pay for another set of tickets to the top. Why can't we pay for both sets at once? Anyhow, at the top they have a few vendors and a park, we hang out for a bit and head back down (again having to pay for the tickets at both stops.) Grab a cab to Centro as I wanted to check the strip clubs, we hit Maracaibo & Ejectiva, but both are closed because it's too early, so we take a walk to check the street action. We walk down to Calle 55 over to Park Bolivar, stopping at a bar / restaurant along the way to watch the Germany / Sweden game. Not a lot of action at this time, we walk back up from Bolivar on Calle 56 then back to Carrera 50. A few girls were across the street that looked hot as fuck, but my friend felt "shy" about talking to the girls in the street with everyone walking by and starring so we didn't cross over. What a pussy, he's embarrassed to buy Viagra in the pharmacies so always makes me do it, LOL. Anyway, we walked down Calle 55 for a block till we saw a huge tranny, he had to be 6'2" at least, and I said owww shit, I think this is the same dude I saw on Google Earth Street View in the same area. Go to street view and check Calle 55 just west of Carrera 50 and you will see a HUGE tranny in a blue dress. LOL. Notice how much bigger she is than the guy walking past her. Well she is even bigger in person. LMAO. Anyhow, we crossed the street and walked back to 53 to check Ejectiva again, still closed. So we walk down to Calle 53 to Conejitas Strip Club that had just opened. Dude, this place sucked! There were at least 60 guys in here and 5 girls at best. Maybe it was because it was so early but we had two beers each and left.

Time to check the street action! So we walk through Parke Botero, past the statues and the pay phones and hang a right at the church, a granny or two but nothing really. It's a Saturday and early afternoon so I guess we can't expect much. We hang a right on Carrera 53 and I got that little pump of adrenaline, you know when you get that rush because you have been anticipating this experience for a while now. LOL. So we walk down 53 for a block, cross the street at the park and walk back on the other side. Man this place is crowded as fuck, but not a lot of girls around. We cross the street again basically making a full circle, and walk the same block again. There are a couple girls hanging in a few doorways but everything I saw was a 4 at best. Nothing we see that we like. Okay, let's go check De Grieffe I tell my friend. He is blown away that I know where all this shit is. LOL. So we walk up to Calle 53, pass the Excalibur Casino and down to Bienvenidos bar for a drink. The best looking street talent we have seen so far is in the doorway right in front of us, 3 girls, all very doable. Just like watching porn, you are never happy with what you are watching right now, you have to change the channel to see what else is on, well same situation here. I say let's walk the area to check the talent so we pass for now and walk a block down Carrera 54 before crossing the street and doubling back on the other side. We round the corner back on CL. 53, there is one girl with talent but we decide to go back to the girls we saw earlier, so we cross the street again and go back. We both pick our girls who asked for $50 k each plus $16 k for the room, (a whopping US $24) we didn't bother negotiating and accepted, and off we go. Rooms were better than I was expecting, my girl was from Bogota and had a killer body, but she was kind of cold. No BBBJ, even offered her $20 k propina and she refused which was disappointing, you would think the street girls would be more willing to do extras, but oww well, it's not a deal breaker for me. I like them to start in cowgirl for a while, flip them over to doggie and finish in mish. I pounded the shit out of her in doggie and kept playing with her ass. It was funny cause she kept flinching and moving my hand away but after a while I could tell she started to enjoy it and eventually let me get a fingertip in her ass while I was pounding her. LOL, a small victory for me. Finish in mish, damn its getting hard to cum now, take a quick shower and off we go. We walk back to Maracaibo which is now open, they only had a few girls but my friend liked one so we stayed and had a few drinks. Eventually I convince him to split and check out Ejectiva next door. Much more girls and nicer atmosphere all around. It was Saturday evening now and we can see the girls starting to trickle in. We relax for a few hours and drink, by about 9-10 pm I am horny again and ready to go. I had my eye on a really cute Paisa with a peach top for most of the evening but she got taken by another dude. I end up grabbing a sexy little blonde paisa with a 9 body and 8 face, best fuck of the trip for me. We go upstairs for $80 k, its funny because the doorway to the rooms upstairs is actually hidden in the toilet stall of the men's bathroom. LOL. This girl rocks my world! BBBJ was to die for, passionate, and likes it up the ass! I hit the jackpot. She asks for $100 k propina for anal, I counter at $50 k and we settle for $70 k. What is that, like $30 for sex and an extra $25 tip for anal. This chick would be $500 an hour in Miami for straight sex, and I'm fucking her up the ass for less than $60! Medellin rocks! Damn I fucked this girl till I was blue in the face, I couldn't cum even fucking her in the ass. I had her switch back to cowgirl to give me a break before finally going back to doggie and eventually finishing in mish. Holy shit, what a workout! No showers here, the room is stuffy and the guy was knocking on the door for the past 15 minutes but I need another 5 to cool off in front of the fan before getting dressed and heading back down stairs. My friend waits for me to get back before he takes a girl upstairs, when he is done we eventually leave and head to Parke Lleras for dinner. We bought dinner for the cab driver too, why not. Afterwards we head to the Mansion cave. We check the bar again but it's the same story, sausage fest with a lot of guys, most of the girls are paired up already with only 2-3 available, but no way either of us can fuck again so we pass and head back to the room and crash.

Day 5 Its Sunday and Colombia is playing Poland in the World Cup at 1 pm. We are psyched to watch the game in Medellin. Have the same breakfast and want to go by the stadium to watch the game. Of course I know Energy casa is right next to the stadium so the plan was to get one pop before the game so we get there early. Their website says they are open on Sundays but I guess with the game they were closed, which was disappointing. We walk back to the stadium and watch the game at a bar / restaurant right next to the big screen they had outside the stadium. Great game that Colombia won 3-0, great atmosphere and everyone was happy. Afterwards we go back to Energy just to check again, but they were still closed damn it. Oww well. I know most of the Casas are closed and most of the strip clubs don't open till later, so we grab a cab to Luna Lunera as I heard this joint was 24 hours. We get there and no customers and a whopping 2 girls, one was a 5 and the other a 6 on my scale. We feel pretty desperate so after a round of $20 k Coronas we take the girls to the room, I can't remember exactly but I think it was $170 k for an hour. Rooms were very nice and clean, but both girls were duds and we should have gotten a half hour instead. Bunch of veterans making Rookie mistakes. My chic had the worst boob job I have ever seen. Scars that went around her nipples, down the seam of her boobs and underneath the cup. Usually you would see a scar in one of these locations, but never in all three. Anyway, after a crappy, robotic fuck we head back to the hotel to relax for a while before heading to Parke Lleras for dinner again. We have a decent dinner, spotted one working girl who insisted she was not working but wanted to join us for dinner, LOL, but we pass. We walk around afterwards and have a few drinks at one of the bars, people were still celebrating the Colombia victory earlier today. This scene reminded me of my college days, it was cool but I'm not 25 and single anymore. We decide to split, I want to try Fase II but my buddy wants to go back to Ejectiva as he wants to fuck the girl I had the previous night. LOL. So we go back but she wasn't there, we hang out for a while and I spot the girl I wanted to take the night before. She was pretty easy to identify because she is wearing the same peach top as yesterday, LOL. We call her over and she hangs out, we buy her a few drinks and my friend wants to take girls back to the hotel. We ask her to point out some of her friends who she knows well and is comfortable with, so we select the best one and negotiate a todo la noche. It was an $80 k exit fee per girl, and we gave them $150 k each. They tried to get us to pay the bar the full $230 k upfront but I refused and said I would give the bar $80 k and pay them the rest at the hotel. I should have paid more attention to this red flag as these girls were awful! I thought the Luna Lunera chicks were bad, these girls didn't want to party, wanted to fuck in separate rooms, wouldn't let us switch off even for extra propina, I mean WTF? Are these girls hookers or not? Anyway, I get my nut out with my chick, we go back to my friends room and hang out for a little while, and I decide to crash about an hour later. The next day my friend said he stayed with them for about another hour after I crashed and sent them off.

Day 6 last day here so we have to make it count. Have the usual breakfast, watch a World Cup game, then off for a Pablo Escobar tour. Instead of an official tour, Robert arranged a bilingual driver to take us around, which was better IMO. We went to the building that the Cali Cartel bombed to try and kill his family, the Cathedral prison he built for himself up in the mountains, and his grave site. Another touristy area that had a nice view, overall it was OK, not that much to see but it was nice just to drive around the city. We spend about 4-hours with him and I think he charged $30 k per hour, so we paid him $150 k with tip if memory serves. It was getting late and we have pussy to fuck, so we have the driver (can't remember his name) drop us off at Energy by the stadium. Damn they got a nice lineup of around 15 girls, 2-3 were 5's on my scale but most were 7-8. I pick a classic looking paisa chic as you should know by now I like these types of girls, and up to the room. Awesome rooms, I grab a quick shower. The girl makes a half ass attempt at a massage, condom blowjob and another robotic fuck. Man, I'm really picking the dudes this trip. I know I lost a few steps and put on a few pounds these last few years, but I used to do much better with the chicas. Anyway. When I flip her over to mish the girl has a skanky smelling pussy and that just kills my heart on. I quickly flip her back to doggie and concentrate like hell to get my first nut of the day out. I grab another quick shower and back to the waiting room for a good 20-minutes waiting for by friend to finish. He had an awesome experience and really liked the place, he said best place we had been to by far. We head out and grab some food in the area, then back to the hotel to freshen up. Early evening and we check the Cave again but again nothing of interest so we finally head to Fase II. $20 K cover and beers are $20 k each, damn we dropped $80 k and had only been here 5-minutes. Girls were smoking hot though, there were two I would rate at a 6 but the others were 8's and a few 9's by my scale, Victoria Secret models. There were probably 15+ girls and maybe 10-15 customers, but every single girl was glued to her phone. One of the 9's danced on stage for 2 songs then walked around for tips afterwards, I gave her a $10 k tip and told her to come back and see us when she was finished, but she never did. I think two other girls danced on stage for the hour or so we stayed there, and we eventually left. I love a top shelf girl as much as the next guy, but if they were this disinterested while working, I imagine they would be even worse in bed. I'the rather a 7 girl who rocks in the bedroom than a 9 who's a robot. Anyhow, we caught a cab to San Diego strip club which was just down the road. Mostly 6's but one or two 7's & 8's and much more aggressive and personable, the girls actually try to get your attention. Problem was I did a few bumps in the bathroom and my dick was passed out so there was no way I could fuck right now. My friend grabbed a girl and took her upstairs and I hung out till he was done. Afterwards went back to Ejectiva hoping I could find the cula girl I fucked the first night I was there, but she wasn't working again, so I grabbed a girl I had seen the previous few nights. She was a little energizer bunny, awesome fuck, everything except she wouldn't let me fuck her in the ass, but totally accommodating. Afterwards she even checked my socks and turned my underwear right side out again that is how accommodating she was, reminded me of an Asian chic at the massage parlors. Usually the Latinas are not that obliging. Gave her a $20 k tip and $10 k to the security guy as we were there for a good hour and the place was closed. When I got downstairs the place was empty and my buddy was there waiting. Cab back to the hotel and our trip was done, packed and had to be at the airport by 7 am to catch a 9 am flight to Miami.

Overall observations Cartagena is too touristy and hot as fuck! I think the same thing of Jaco in Costa Rica so if that is your thing, you may enjoy it. Medellin is a beautiful city, great climate and awesome people. The people are extremely friendly and polite everywhere you go, one example is Colombia is the first Latin culture I have experienced where they don't blow their car horns 24/7 as its considered rude. Poblado felt like being in Miami with the shops and restaurants, and I never felt threatened or unsafe, even walking the Centro streets in areas where gringos typically don't venture. Granted I would not feel comfortable walking some of these areas at night, but during the day I had no issues.

Mansion was a nice operation and I can't say enough good things about the staff. Even at Mansion 2 they have someone in the office 24/7 to help you with anything you need, whether its calling you a taxi, ordering food for you, arranging a tour, getting you Viagra, or ordering you a girl late night. The last night at 7:55 pm we realized we were low on cash, Robert says the currency exchange closes in 5 minutes, he drops what he is doing and drives us down there personally so we make it before closing. If it's your first trip to Colombia, I would highly recommend them. I was a bit disappointed with the quantity of girls in the Cave at Mansion but we never hung around there for more than an hour, and I think we kept going at odd times when things were slow. It's not a place like Del Rey in Costa Rica that you can grab a girl for a quickie whenever you want, its more GFE and most of the guys we met there were single and networking most of their chicas on FB. In hindsight I wish I had grabbed a girl from Fase II, and we never made it to Loutron which I wanted to try at least once. Overall we got the full buffet of street girls, casas, strip clubs and at least my friend hit a Mansion chica to round things off. As always, YMMV, you can find total duds and great GFE / PSE girls at any location and at any price range, so going high end does not guarantee a great experience, nor does low end guarantee a poor one. Cash wise this was the cheapest trip we ever made, we normally travel with $3-4 k each per trip, and spend every last dollar no matter how much we have. I think I spend $2,000 - $2,500 including hotel. Campo Alegre in Curacao is also cheap as hell, US $30 per girl with a huge selection of Colombian and Dominican chicas, but the rest of the island is expensive so you will pay more for meals, hotel, rental car, etc. Whereby all of this was very cheap in Medellin. Cab rides were $15-20 k from Poblado to Centro and always metered, some of the drivers don't know how to find the addresses but from a safety perspective there was never any issues.

Below was the homework I did on Medellin before my trip. I took a screen shot and saved it as my wallpaper on my phone so I always had the addresses handy. If you want to hit Casas or street action I strongly recommend scouting the locations on google earth street view to get familiar with your surroundings.

Sometimes when I scan the forum I wonder why the topics for a particular place are so focused on the sexual encounter rather than how to set up that event. I enjoy a bit of porn as much as the next guy, but some scenes are just so easy that the size of her teats or the way she blows is the only real thing to write about.

Such is Cartagena. At least in the old town, or El Centro. I didn't have much time here, and stayed in the heart of the walled city. If you are alone, just want an easy time and love Latina ladies then no need to go further. Cartagena is a very nuanced city, and not to take away from all the other delights and spectrum of possible approaches, but I just wanted a couple days to rest and enjoy the company of these Colombian beauties. As a side note, these ladies can be some of the best in the world, if your taste runs that way. Thick to thin, tall or petite, faces that could grace a magazine cover and very feminine.

However, "screw your courage to a sticking-place. " as Shakespeare once said, so I stuck to El Centro.

The set up.

As is evident in the forum, the clock tower area and bars in the immediate vicinity (facing the tower or just around the corner) is where it is easiest to find action. On this first night I went to the tower area about every hour or so over an 8 hour period, and visited bars in between, and this is what I found.

3 PM Full of tourists and touts (those guys selling everything from shirts to bus tours to "I have the best quality," which I took as an allusion to drugs). A few girls who looked like they might be looking for action, but hard to tell.

5 PM Same as earlier, but seems like an increase in the population of girls who might be out to relieve the horny of their copas. Still hard to tell, and not really high quality.

7 PM More signs that this is the place to be. And the scene has gotten lively with dance shows, cops, touts and packs of the domesticated bi-pedal sight-seers wandering around like lost cats. The working girls are obvious as they make eye contact, say "Hola," and I recognized some of them from earlier in the day.

9 PM We enter a weird gray area. Definitely courtesans about, but the overlap with tourists is confusing. I found myself undressing and lusting after a girl, only to notice she was with her mother and father. Ah, so daughters and darlings of the night mixing like coloured oils in a pool of desire.

11 PM Business hours and the shop is open. Some of the same girls from the 3-5 PM time, so I know now why they were there sitting on the benches, but the hotties are out. Oh, and so hot. It took about 104 seconds for me to find 23 year old J. , a lithe, darkish minx, very petite, pretty face and with enough curves to make a bunny race course. No English, but we used our phones to agree upon 150 thousand (she asked for 200, I offered lower, we compromised).

The act.

We walked back to the flat I rented and joked in our limited conversational abilities. It would help to speak Spanish, but the deal is simple so not absolutely necessary. In the apartment we each had a beer and used google translate to get to know one another. My blood was flowing so we moved to the bed. She didn't have condoms, which always surprises me with these girls, but is common enough that I always do have them (bought in a store earlier). Not that she offered condom free sex, but just be prepared as she might not be.

From the endless porn entries in the forum, I knew what to expect. Maybe the girls all see the same XXX film and think this is what is expected, and maybe they are right? She asked for dinaro, so I put it on the table where she could see it and we both had a very cold beer to bring down the outside temperature and increase the inner one. Then she dimmed the lights, stripped, shook her salacious booty in a mock dance and moved to give mechanical head. I stopped her as that is not all that interesting to meshe seemed surprised but relieved, and climbed on top. The requisite moaning started, but I hushed her and she stopped (part of the script they have here I suppose). We bonked for a while in this position and another, and another until the reveal, after which I took a quick shower and she followed.

We then chatted (google translate is fantastic) and flirted a bit, and had another beer. After a while, we both got a bit bored, and I sleepy, so she dressed, gave a peck on the cheek and went her merry way. All and all, a fantastic experience and I would happily see her again.

Hints from day one.

El turista--just like the girls have a script, tourists here seem to have a tribal dress code. You see them immediately and everywhere. Some sort of straw fedora, t-shirt, shorts and flip flops for the guys. Loose floral summer dress or t-shirt and shorts for the ladies. It was easy for me to avoid touts as they swarmed on these easy to identify marks. Anyone who has been to a scorching desert knows that layers of loose clothes that cover your skin are the best thing. If you have the audacity to wear long pants, a loose button down with a t-shirt under and real shoes, you are much less of a target.

Touts--yes, they are around, just like any tourist area in the world from Kathmandu to Manhattan. Just smile, say "hola" back if they say Hi; politely say no to their offers and keep walking. I shook their hand when they wanted, and looked at their pictures, and they pretty much let me go on my way when I wanted.

Accommodations--I like the privacy of an apt, and airbnb was easy enough with plenty of options. As pointed out previous forums, read the rules and makes sure it does not have a "no guest" policy. I indicated that I was a couple just in case it came up, but seeing the place, this would not have been an issue either way.

Prices--girls on Tinder are available, but start out expensive. The street trollops also start out higher, but are easy to bring down. I stopped at 150 thousand (about $50), as after that it seemed petty and she needs the extra few thousand more than I do. From all I have read, and experienced, this is a fairly standard rate.

Inputs from forum members--I like to reach out to others on the forum for a more focused bit of chit-chat when visiting a new place. Some members were very helpful and showed the solidarity of nomadic mongerer, others felt obligated to just remind me to RTFF and were less helpful, and some in between. If anyone wants to reach out to me, I am happy to offer any additional info I have.

Hope this helps, and more later.

If you don't wear this kind of "outfit" to a sauna, you don't want to be dressed like that in Cartagena, which is, effectively, the same thing.

My understanding of why people cover their bodies in a desert is to avoid a sun or heat stroke. You don't have to suffer like that in Cartagena because, well, there are air-conditioned stores you can take refuge in, praise the lord!

In terms of the touts, yes, MOST OF THEM will take no for an answer -- it's the ones that won't, who are an issue. Sorry, but it's not "like any tourist area in the world from Kathmandu to Manhattan. " I haven't been to Kathmandu, but Cartagena touts are even more annoying than their brethren in Siem Reap, which is (was) to me a gold standard of annoying peddlers. And I would advise newbies against saying "hola" or anything else because they will perceive it as a beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Look, I'm not a spiteful person. If anything, I'm respectful and polite, and I love talking to the locals (however my broken Spanish allows). But you just can't make everyone happy at the expense of your own misery, so it's "gracia" and keep walking for me.

Having said that, Cartagena and its ladies are lovely, and I will return (in winter).

IslandMonger, terrific reports, thanks!

Thanks you Lance-a-Lot and Island Monger.

I will be in CTG on Thursday is anyone is there and would like to meet up. Thanks for all the advice.

I am a committed DR guy going 5 times a year. However I just discovered that I can fly to CARTA for $300 round trip. So dollars say I should consider a trip. This forum has some great information but I need a little help. What is the best guest friendly Hotel that is close to the action, Secondly I do not like casas so the Tower is more my speed or a disco where pickups are on menu. Help a brother out I am reading the forum but help would be appreiated. I like brown girls and this is why I love the DR but I think I can get use sexy Colombians.

I am new to this forum and have never been to Col however after reading your report I am pumped. You are a gifted writer.

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2183673]It is Saturday and at noon I head to the airport to pick up my girl. She was a friend of a girl I see in Costa Rica who hooked us up when she heard I was going to Columbia. I had offered to fly her in from San Jose but she couldn't get away so she sent me her friends info. I started communicating with her about three weeks before taking the trip. She is a sexy 25 year old, graduated college with a nursing degree and was returning to Cartagena after spending a few weeks with her family in Peru. She starts her new job in a week and I have three nights left in town.

[QUOTE=IslandMonger;2199782]My initial impression was this was a freelance bar, where girls would go back and forth between here and the clock tower. Apparently I was wrong, and the girls at Dolce Vita work for the club only. I agree to $200 k for my girl and upon leaving, they try to get me to pay a $100 k exit fee. I refuse to pay and tell her forget it, I will find someone else outside the club and basically walk out. She talks to the bartender briefly and runs after me, basically saying we consumed enough alcohol while we were there that the club will let her leave without an exit fee. Whatever. Anyhow, we go back to the hotel and she was awesome, even better than the previous girl. Great DFK & BBBJ, only disappointment is no anal.[/QUOTE]100 k exit fee? This must be new. I've been in La Dulce Vida for one drink and left with a chica no exit fee. I think the people there recognize me since I go there every trip. As far I know the chicas in there do not work exclusively for that bar. I've never heard of it. I've also taken chicas from there and gone to Elektra or a normal club to dance.

If they ask you for an exit fee just get the chicas number. What a load of horseshit.

Such is Cartagena. At least in the old town, or El Centro. [/QUOTE]Very well written report. Please keep the reports coming.

I decided to try staying in El Centro, this trip, as opposed to my usual high rise condo rental in Bocagrande. Six one way, half dozen the other, IMO. It's either a taxi to the beach and back (or in my case, walk halfway to Bodytech, then to Playa Hollywood, and taxi back), or walk to the beach and taxi into Centro at night. I stayed 2 blocks up from the Clock Tower in an AirBnB that was a great spot. A little noisy, but that's to be expected, given the location.

Day 1 (Wednesday)- Avianca decided to leave my big suitcase at my departure airport in the US, so for 10 hours I didn't have anything in Cartagena. Hence, I didn't go to the gym, beach, etc. I went over to SAIL2018, which is an naval thing where big navy sail boats from various countries travel around from port to port. I got a tour of the Colombian ship. Gloria. I just walked to dinner at Bacco Trattoria and had a decent thin crust pizza. I lined up Martina from PP, and she arrived looking just like her photos (face unblurred). Her ass was unreal. A nice way to forget about the luggage ordeal. She wanted 240, including taxi, I got it to 200. I paid her a combo of COP / USD.

Day 2 (Thursday)- I walked to Bodytech, then went to one of my breakfast spots, in Boca Grande. El Palacio de Las Frutas (just off the corner of Calle 6 & San Martin / Cr 2). Just about $4 for a breakfast special of scrambled eggs with ham, toast / arepa, a juice of your choice, and a coffee. It was pouring while I was eating, and I ended up waiting for probably an hour and a half, before I could leave the restaurant and go to Playa Hollywood. There was no sign of the sun coming out, and it was late afternoon, so I ended up just going back to Centro to get some work done. I walked over to Getsemani, for dinner, to a place I read about online. El Arsenal (and Whiskey Box bar). I had pork chops and some handmade cocktails, both pretty good. I think went to Alquimico for a cocktail, and ordered the Morphine, which I hate, every-single-Fing-time, but I never remember because each drink on the menu is so overwhelming, and the bartenders are always slammed, so I panic and soon-thereafter, regret. I ended up checking out Bazurto Social Club, which has a cover (I can only hope it goes towards the live band, because there's no other way to justify a cover charge). It was decent, some people dancing, good service, and some interesting backpackers that were all yipped-up. I perused the Clock Tower crowd, around 3 am, maybe. I found a petite brunette with killer dimples / smile. She was way too tatted, but it was 3 am and I was sloshed. She had a friend with her that was cute, but not nearly the same body. Tatiana & Salome ended up both coming to my apto for 150 each. Of course, they were "cousins" so they couldn't do anything, together. I didn't really care, and ended up doing both of them. Tatiana REALLY wanted my bluetooth speaker, because I can buy it in the US, and she can't buy it in Colombia. It's a no, from me! Later in the trip, I was inviting her back, and she wanted me to pay 100 + my speaker. I just ignored her, from that point on. Tatiana had a nice little body, and her friend had a big juicy ass. Two very different sessions / styles.

Day 3 (Friday) - I went to my favorite little breakfast cafe. Bohemiano (across from Cafe Havana). Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, cream cheese, juice, & coffee for about 4 bucks. Bodytech, which by the way, I bring my ID, my passport, and a copy of my old passport. So, I am able to use a different one each day, and get a free workout. A week-long membership is 105. Then, finally made it to Playa Hollywood. I always use Jhon The Genius (Juan Carlos Cervantes Obeso on FB), and his buddies El Chino (a former boxer) and Pedro. They'll gape you if you let them, but they're good dudes. Set the expectations early: 15.000 for chair / umbrella, 4-5. 000 for beers, and they'll gladly help with the ladies. If you are walking down the beach road (Cr 1), which I don't recommend because of all the touts (I walk down Cr 2 until it ends, then cut over), you will see three white tents inside a restaurant property on the beach. Pass those, make a right at the dirt parking lot / beach access road. Make a left when you hit the sand, and there is Fao's beach bar / restaurant. If you contact Jhon (yes, I know it's John, but I digress), tell him Blanquito sent you. Amazing sunset at the beach this day (6:40 p)! I was exhausted after a long day of drinking on the beach. I ended up getting a "Mexican Wrap" from Clock Tower Pub (See: hamburger patty inside a tortilla, with cheese, and guac / sour cream on the side). I cruised the Clock Tower for awhile, sitting down a few times to scope the scene. I saw a blonde with a gorgeous face / smile, and half her ass hanging out her shorts. I wasn't sure if she was working. She was with some friends (a lesbian, a gay young guy, and another girl). I did a few laps, and ended up getting her attention. She left her friends, and indeed, she was available. I said, "How much?" She said, "Cuanto quieres pagar?" I said, "How much?" She said, "250. " I said, "150. " She said, "bueno. " Her name was Maria, and she was from Cali. Her body ended up not being as fantastic as it looked in clothing, but who am I to complain? Great ass, beautiful face, but her boobs left a little to be desired, and she is a mom. Definitely fun, and passionate.

Day 4 (Saturday) - Checked out a little cafe in Getsemani called Beiyu. I got an acai bowl. They have juices, smoothies, coffee, breakfast / lunch. Decent little spot. A little hot inside, and small, but it's worth a try. Bodytech, then. Finally, some good afternoon weather at the beach! A few groups of good looking girls, in Fao's area. Jhon was pointing out several of the girls, and giving me a little info. I noticed a group of three, two of which were very hot. I bought a beer for the brunette with the amazing, big smile. Jhon got a little intel. My birthday was the next day, so I was considering getting a boat and going to the islands, and bringing some girls. She wanted $200 USD for the full day / night and boat trip. She wanted 200.000 COP for ST. She came over to thank me for the beer, when they were leaving, and I got her number. I got a massage on the beach from Heidy (pink outfit), against my will, for 20.000 and it was damn good. Paula, the girl from the beach, came over around 8 p. Great tits, great F. I invited her to dinner, after, because the connection was so good, and since it would be my birthday at midnight. We were walking the city, and she mentioned Juan del Mar restaurant. We sat inside, it was hot (of course), and there was a live band. The place was popping, and we had a good laugh when we realized that outside, or maybe next door, was Juan del Mar's Italian menu, and inside was the seafood menu. The waitress was nice enough to sneak us a couple menus, and let us order from our table by the band. We had a bottle of wine, and a couple of pasta dinners. I forget the exact price, but it was pretty cheap, given the restaurant's decor, service, and reputation. I got a birthday dessert, compliments of the chef, and the waitress kindly bumped into a fan to aim it at my gal. It was great to have some beef-stuffed cannoli, and stare at her smile / tits. She said she had to go meet her friend, and make some money. Since no one gave me a birthday present, that day, I treated myself to a TLN. I gave her $100 USD + 100.000 COP. She's from Pereira, probably in town for a couple months. Great sex, good cuddle, and she ended up staying from 8 p-1 p, including 3 sessions.

Day 5 (Sunday) - I ended up packing in the afternoon, to avoid any last-minute stress, since I had a flight to MDE the next morning. I went back to El Palacio de Las Frutas, in Bocagrande, for breakfast. Again, it started raining right as I sat down. Eventually, I made it out to the beach. The fellas at Fao's had bought me a bottle of 5-year Ron Medellin rum. A nice touch, considering they probably have a whole kitchen full of that, at home, from over-charging me at the beach. We enjoyed beers, shots of rum, and a good ol' fashioned father-son fight between two employees at the beach bar. The policia showed up to shut everything down, which apparently is common on Sundays, when they want to go home early. I went with Jhon and Chino to a little spot on Cr 3, for some after-work beers and street empanadas. We split a cab to Centro, then I gave the driver money for them to get home. We said our goodbyes, and thank you's (I brought Jhon a hat, and they got me the rum). I wanted a nice dinner, on my last night in CTG, so I invited Paula over, again. We went to Quebracho Parilla Argentina (an Argentine steakhouse on the west side of Centro). Again, I ordered a superior entree than my companion (filet mignon vs some skirt steak looking dish), and we enjoyed a bottle of pinot noir (189.000). The band sang happy birthday to me, and again, we shared a birthday dessert, compliments of the chef. Paula and I retreated to my apt, but unfortunately, as it was night 5 and I drank a shit load of alcohol, I could not finish the deed. This was the one moment when I really needed her to do BBBJ, but that's not in her repertoire. No worries, though. We crashed, and woke up in the morning to my alarm. I gave her a couple little gifts (clutches), and slipped money in her purse. She didn't ask about money, didn't tell me how much; simply sent a photo of the gift I snuck into her purse, and thanked me. Very caring girl, funny, unbelievable smile, good body, and warmed up as the time went on. Oh, and she works under some agency / group, so she definitely has friends, including the hot blonde from the beach.

Day 6 (Monday) - Taxi to the airport, Avianca didn't F up, aside from a delay, and now I'm in Medellin.

Notes: I paid anywhere from 4.000-7.000 for Bocagrande-Centro taxis, and the AirBnB (corner of a major walking corridor, and unfortunately taxi / carriage / etc.) cost $110/ nt. The owner said there was a $10/ nt charge for guests. I pre-negotiated $20 surcharge, which ended up being exactly how many nights I had a slumber party. Although, there is no reason to pay this, because there is no reception / security. The building is called Balcones de Badillo, corner of CL 7 / Cr 36 (Calle de Badillo / Calle de la Moneda) above the Tennis store. Very convenient for trolling the Clock Tower, LDV, Space, Elektra, etc.

Feel free to PM me if you want contact info for AirBnB, Jhon, chicas, etc.

Where is PP and TLN?

I stayed 2 blocks up from the Clock Tower in an AirBnB that was a great spot. A little noisy, but that's to be expected, given the location.

Day 1 (Wednesday)- Avianca decided to leave my big suitcase at my departure airport in the US, so for 10 hours I didn't have anything in Cartagena. Hence, I didn't go to the gym, beach, etc. I went over to SAIL2018, which is an naval thing where big navy sail boats from various countries travel around from port to port. I got a tour of the Colombian ship. Gloria. I just walked to dinner at Bacco Trattoria and had a decent thin crust pizza. I lined up Martina from PP, and she arrived looking just like her photos (face unblurred). Her ass was unreal. A nice way to forget about the luggage ordeal. She wanted 240, including taxi, I got it to 200. I paid her a combo of COP / USD..[/QUOTE]

On my first day in Cartagena I met a very beautiful girl at the beach Playa Hollywood. We had a few drinks and we were already kissing. She wanted to go the my hotel room, so I took her. We were so horny that we did all bare. It was the best fuck I ever had. The first time I came on her body, the second time in her mouth and the third we fucked for more than 1 hour and I came in her pussy. After this we went out for dinner and dancing. This girl really made me crazy, I almost fucked her on the dance floor. Back on my room we fucked more and I came in her pussy again. The next morning I paid her 500.000 and she was very happy with that.

Longtime lurker here finally posting. I know that el centro has many short time hotel options, but was wondering if there are recommended options for such in the bocagrande or laguito area? If not any recs in the centro area would be fine. Thanks in advance.

Hey guys check this out. What does this mean for us.

I am planning to be there on Sept first week.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2197984]I just got back from Cartagena.

Just some key points:

[B] Low season[/B]

Not as busy as it was during the first few months of the year. Even the touts I chatted with all agreed it wouldn't really pick up until August. LOTS of chicas in the old city at night and not many guys / customers. I was really impressed at the ratio this time around. Although it's always mostly been this way, it was very noticeable this trip.

One thing that did strike me as odd is I didn't see as many hotties this time around. Maybe I just wasn't looking closely enough.

[B] Elektra [/B]

I won 3 milion pesos playing Blackjack so got with a Venezuelan chica I have been banging since last year and partied. We hit the town around 11 pm and by around 1 AM we stopped by Elektra. There's a 'VIP' section in the back. It only cost 20 k to get in. Essentially a VERY dark lounge with a unisex bathroom at the back of it. There was only one other dude there with a couple of chicas. Weirdly enough chicas were coming in and out (and I'm pretty sure not paying 20 k to get in). I was pretty plastered by then so my end of the lounge eventually had some five chicas dancing and having fun. I got some bottle service. It was actually really cheap. I think I ended up paying 200 k for the entire tab but that's what happens when all you have is a couple of bottles everyone is sharing.

All through the night the chicas that joined us would make out with me and then ask if they can go home with us (my Venezuelana and me) I eventually settled on a friend of hers and got 3-way action back at the apartment. They were both way too fucking high on pot. One of them walked into the glass door coming in from the balcony. Luckily she wasn't hurt. Just made me LOL.

[B]Punta Arenas[/B]

The trips over to Punta Arenas varied in cost (20 k or 30 k per person). I realized it depended on the number of passengers currently booked. With that said you can get a private trip with less than 100 k (around 80 k) if you show up early enough or know the dudes running the boat. Don't expect the entire trip to be private. On the way back we shared with a group of passengers.[/QUOTE]Hey bro, so what would you say is the hot spot besides the clock tower to pick up chicks on Friday and Saturday night. Last time I went to LDV on a Friday and saw some super hot chicks. Is that still the hot spot?

I hear things about La Santa but I have never picked up from there. Last time I was there they were handing out pamphlets in Bocagrande for daytime parties on Sundays. I never went though.

I will be in Cartagena from Aug 22-25. Let me know if you anyone is around and would like to connect!

[QUOTE=Starlord1;2214154]Daytime parties. I would like to hit some. I land at 4 pm on a Sunday. Any info on that.[/QUOTE]Try La Santa. I think they were advertising start at 2 pm. If you are in contact with any chicas there they can find out for you.

So while I didn't partake last night I did go scope out the scenery. The girls are for what is my first experience, actually not all congregating under the clock. I found groups hanging out on side streets close to the other clubs as well. A mix of 6 and 7's with a few 9's and more than a handful of 4's and 5's.

Interesting side note as I was coming back up a street from elektra. One of the bartenders of some bar was hanging out at the door of his place and told me to be careful. He says recently there has been an increase of people that "mean no good". There's definitely a noticeable increase in touts and beggars. So if you're walking a side street solo just keep your awareness about you. Will pull the trigger on somebody tonight and report back.

In the south part of Cartagena there was a bust last night. A part I think they called bumba de lamparo or something like that. 45+ women were arrested for prostitution 23 of them illegal venezuelan that were forced to sell their bodies. I'm sure someone can find a link. It was a mostly local nightclub locations. The basements were all interconnected and that's were the banging ocurred. None of the pimps were caught but the ladies were saved.

I think the Venezuelan exodus into Colombia has started to ruin things. There's a lot of desperation coming from the Venezuelan refugees and I started seeing some signs of this a year ago where there were suddenly dudes at the clock tower plaza who were not just touts but straight up pimps.

I remember this one guy walked right up to me and offered to let me fuck some chica that was with him. It was embarrassing and the chica just looked away like she was ashamed. Not a great vibe.

There was one beautiful girl a block from Elektra on her phone and gave me the smile as I walked past. Would have pulled on her but there was a big group of guys that looked like they all wanted to get tipped out if anyone took her. Maybe more of the same problems I've mentioned.

That being said I pulled an 18 year old off the shelf on the first try.

It's coming off a bank holiday so not much people out. There's still gold in dm hills boys. Negotiated at 150 for everything. Gave another 50 as tip after everything was accounted for brilliantly. And she then tried to give me back most of it. Guess she had a good time too. Instantly makes me sad I won't be back here for a bit.

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2188617]The area of El Laquito as a whole has older buildings that have either been remodeled or are being remodeled. There is a lack guest policy attitude at most of the building in this area and some units in numerous buildings are used by working girls providing incall services. No, it's not a bunch of hookers hassling people that walk by, it's not seedy at all. You wouldn't know it if you weren't looking for it. You are encountering them more in their natural habitat as they relax, shop and eat in restaurants. I personally found them unguarded and more natural when interacting with them. You are sure to encounter many beautiful women in this area which makes for some interesting day time and night time opportunities if you got some game.

We stayed in the Marinaire Building, located in El Laquito across the street from Atlantis building. The area is safe to walk at any hour as there is always either people or a taxi or two on the roads, as the end of this one-way street has the popular Hilton hotel..[/QUOTE]I'm coming to Cartagena this weekend for 3 nights and staying at the Conrad Hilton, I was going to be coming with a woman from Bogota I met last month there from Tinder but that plan as changed. I'm staying on points at the Conrad Hilton and have some Tinder girls somewhat lined up. Is the Hilton mentioned in this review the Conrad Hilton near a golf course or the other one? I also have the Hyatt in Cartagena as an option for future visits and am wondering how do the hotels react if I have a local come over that is not registered with me?

And also it seems like $50-$60 US or 150 K - 180 K COP is the range but for what time frame is this? If they're not stating a price upfront I guess it could be YMMV.

Thanks.

Will be in Cartagena and Barranquilla Starting the 29th. To Sept 5.

And a chica on one of the benches smiled at me. I went over chatted for a bit and told her I'd be back. When I came back I noticed she was chatting with a latino guy next to her. Only they would do it while both looking forward as if they didn't want anyone to see. That chica was super nervous around me shaking a little so I passed. Later one of the Venezuelans I was banging told me its likely her first time so she was spooked.

There was also a group of young women showing up and a couple of touts they would walk over to. Those same touts offered to introduce me: "Hey my friend look at this woman. She is beautiful. " Or something along those lines. I politely declined. It was too bad because that chica had a fine ass.

I'm not surprised its snowballing into full blown pimps standing around with chicas. I don't trust that shit in Colombia -- with a few exceptions like Playa Hollywood I'd rather find them myself and talk to them directly. If the chica is dumb enough to hand the cash to some dude after the act then that's her business not mine.

I'm looking at coming to Cartagena for the first time during the 1st week of October. I want a beachy vacation feel to some of time so I think I want to stay in Bocagrande. I have been reading the forum lots of good info so far and on the ground reports. Maybe I have to go further back (and I will be in the coming day) but I don't see very many recommendations for girl friendly hotels. Right now expedia. Ca has good deals on the Holiday Inn Express in bocagrande, does anybody have any thoughts on that property. If not are their any recommendations for a mid-high end hotel in bocagrande that is chica friendly?

Many thanks for any potential help.

Hi fellas,

Great reading on the forum, keep up the good work! Was in CTG in 2015 and had a great time. I have the luck of being in town again later this year for work 18-21 October and can't wait to check out if Tu Candela is still full of top shelf pussy! I still get flashbacks of those big round asses! Will do my bit and post my findings. If anyone is in town at that time and fancies a beer give me a shout!

Couple of weeks back my source told me that the cops were getting strict in the Clock Tower / Old City area, I guess he was right.

My last night and I just left el Tore as it is swarming with cops. I counted 17 in and around reloj square alone. They are hassling girls and the place is scant. May go back out there just to look later and recap.

I'm going to be in CTG for a few days staying at either the Conrad Hilton or the Hyatt. As I have points to use no out of pocket for these. How easy is it to have girls from Tinder come and I bring them in to either of these places if they are not registered?

[QUOTE=BlakCasper;2215480]Bumping this.[/QUOTE]Hotels are not chica friendly, generally. Look for an apartment when you get there.

Rate is between 150-200 k "por un rato," or for a bit. You could say by the hour if you want. Chicas tend to be more laid back during the day. If they are not stating a price up front then you should bring it up, usually or they might surprise you with a number at the end.

Cartagena is a more laid back party scene. It's not a brothel. If you approach it that way then you'll enjoy it more.

As anyone found a non pro from Tinder or otherwise and taken them to your room you're staying at?[/QUOTE]You might find a few non-pros on Tinder in Cartagena but a vast majority of women on there, and women you will meet will be pay for play. It's a tourist destination.

If you want to try Tinder for non-pros you'll have more luck in Bogota or Medellin.

Action is still great in clock tower. The source was wrong, was trying to get me to pick from girls that give him a cut.

After pursuing Facebook, Beach, Tinder. I like the action at clock tower the best. You can look at the girl in person and then decide, instead of gambling on pictures which we all know are selected to mask reality.

I picked up for 200 K, 150 K and even 100 K at the clock tower, but you get what you pay for at 100 K. It's better to pay an extra 50/75 for chica that spends time on makeup, nails, hair, clothes! Much better experience.

Funny enough there are a ton of cops at the clock tower and the old city all the time. The chicas are hanging out right in front of them, no issues.

There are also touts that will approach you to help connect with the chicas and will give you some BS story that they only connect with the safe ones. Just ignore them unless you need help talking to chicas.

Interestingly enough they all charge similar rates. The best ones and average ones all go for 150-200. It funny and feels like they don't have awareness of what their competition looks like.

[QUOTE=MrNice1;2210759]I am planning to be there on Sept first week.[/QUOTE]Going to be in Cartagena from 7-17. If anyone is around and fancy meeting for drinks, let me know. Also intend on hiring a boat for one or two days to go around the Rosario Islands. Bring a few girls as well for the day. Anyone fancy doing this as well?

Tom.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2198571]I hired a boat back in November. It was 1. 5 million pesos for the whole day. It was a small cruiser that came with two crew members. It had seating in front and in the back. I'd say you could probably fit ten people on it. It was me, four other chicas, and the two guys running the boat. I can't recommend anyone. Google searches showed about $500 USD being charged for the same type of boat, maybe a little less depending on the time of year.

Remember everything else is on you. You tell them where you want to go and you negotiate prices with any additional services at the islands. If you can't speak Spanish I'd get an English speaking tout to arrange and go with you. I would avoid any disagreements with the locals further out on the islands, heh. You can visit Cholon if you want an island to party on. Or Gruta Azul if you want some place quiet. They can even take you to Isla Baru's playa blanca but further away from the crowds.

Upside is you can bring your own food and drinks on board. Everything is cash as the islands don't have any ATMs that I've seen. Bring a wad of pesos with you.

It is worth doing once for the experience. Otherwise I highly recommend finding a good spot on Punta Arenas. It's on the island just south of El Laguito.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the tip Yippeekayay. It seems that 1. 5 mm COP is the standard charge for a boat. Definitely going to give this a go.

I will be going to Cartagena this November, first time there and in fact will be the first time to Colombia. I have RTFF 40 pages deep (disclaimer I started from there and read up but is only halfway through) and read about someone having real bad experiences with their apartment at Palmetto Units.

I have just rented a unit via AirBNB without realizing it until I received the confirmation email. I have communicated with the person who manages all these properties prior to booking and he assures me that overnight guest or visitor (not pre-registered) is not an issue. In fact, I don't even have to pay extra. After realizing that the unit is in the Palmetto, I even asked him again for assurances, and he said it is not an issue. He said it was true in the past but is no longer the case.

I would like to ask for a second opinion from anyone in this forum if this is in fact the case.

I am thinking about next month (mid October) spending a week in Cartagena as I will have a celebration of sorts, so my idea is to rent a boat for the day (6 to 8 hours), something to carry about a dozen people, with music and dancing, drinks and other party favors, I have a good colombian friend from Medellin who will party with me, I want at 6 to 9 chicas (clothing optional, jejeje) bikini clad hotties a couple of whom I will probably import from Medellin, so my questions:

1. Any one who maybe in Cartagena during this time interested in sharing costs? It could be a party to remember.

2. I am thinking about my boat budget of 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 pesos, any one rented before and have any insight?

3. The 3 or 4 chicas whom I will import from Medellin are totally down for this, I plan on paying their air fair along with providing housing and food for 2 or 3 days PLUS a small stipend. How to invite local chicas and what kind of offering is advised?

4. My budget for alcohol and some eats for the day boat trip is 750 mil.

5. I want good loud music, do the boat have good sound systems or do I need to hire a DJ?

Anyone with comments and suggestions, especially those that have done this before is greatly appreciated.

The Tall Man.

Just curious what a "small stipend" looks like. I'm not planning to join but will be helpful information for future events!

[QUOTE=Luminous;2220266]Just curious what a "small stipend" looks like.

The real thrill for these girls is that each and everyone of them will post their selfies with their friends and other girls on the beach and on the boat on Face Book, fuck this will be plastered all over on Face Book. They will show off to all their friends at home in Medellin that they are world travelers, jejejejeje.

I was told by the owner / manager of the property specifically that there will not be any fees to bring back overnight guest. I can only assume know it is true but will get to find out later. If his word is true, then this is just a shakedown on unsuspecting renters there. Anyway, so you manage to still bring your Chicas up the apartment even without paying off the guard, right?

If you see him and his boss and bald headed guy, then you know they on the shake down path. Funny thing is that we were going to tip them anyways before they started the BS LOL. They missed out on a lot of money.

I had to deal with this asshole with the last name Garcia. Either you call the onwer / manager to set him straight or give him couple of bucks (I gave him 20 K) to get your chica through.

Next thing you know, he was my friend showing me pictures of chica's to call them!

There is a tidal wave of Venezuelan migrants crossing the border into Brazil, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia.
Both Peru and Ecuador now require valid Passports for Venezuelans to cross the border. This action has stranded thousands of migrants at the border who do not have Passports.

The Colombian Government has not yet mandated this. But it is just a matter of time.
The Colombians fear the worst and most likely are reacting based on news reports from neighboring countries.

In Brazil, border towns have been flooded with thousands of Venezuelans. The Locals have given up on their Government and have started to take the law into their own hands.

Thanks guys for the update.

I will be next week in Cartagena for the first time.

Is the clock tower still worth visiting with nice chicas all over the place, or should I go straight away to clubs like Isis.

I am new to this board but not new to the hobby. Mostly have done my own live and learn stuff and travelled to various Latin American and Asian countries. Last trip was to Havana in early July. Was thrilled to come across this board and see the wealth of info contributed by why'all. I was in CTG in 2016 and will be there again in November and will report back. My impressions from reading the last 40-50 pages it seems some things have changed and many things remain the same. For example Torre de Reloj is the center of action and chica options are greater. But in reaction some of the rental apt property owners are more paranoid about visitors. Most luxury Airbnb apts want visitors names given 24 hours in advance. At least a couple years ago it was a simple registration and ID check when chicas arrived. Similarly the politicians are reacting the same way although I think they realize our kind of tourism brings $$$ otherwise there isn't much to brag about CTG.

Just ask the host their guest policy. It might seem weird but it's better then getting there and you can bring anyone back.

Hey brothers,

I hope all you travel safe. I'm usually on Sosua bulletin. But I'm going to Cartagena and not like Sosua. From what I'm reading and seeing on youtube. I'm mongering so I want know best spot meet chicks, and the prices that they suppose to charge? I hear Cartagena is more expensive than Bogota and Medellin?

[QUOTE=SlapShot10;2207182]I decided to try staying in El Centro, this trip, as opposed to my usual high rise condo rental in Bocagrande. Six one way, half dozen the other, IMO.

I stayed 2 blocks up from the Clock Tower in an AirBnB that was a great spot. A little noisy, but that's to be expected, given the location.

Day 1 (Wednesday)- Avianca decided to leave my big suitcase at my departure airport in the US, so for 10 hours I didn't have anything in Cartagena. Hence, I didn't go to the gym, beach, etc. I went over to SAIL2018, which is an naval thing where big navy sail boats from various countries travel around from port to port.

Hello everyone,

First off I would like to thank everyone for their detailed reports! It really gives me an idea of what to expect before traveling. I am new to this forum but I use which I think is the sister site of USAsexguide often. I plan on going to Cartenga Oct. 11 through the 16 with a group of 10 or more people. They rented a AirBNB which the policy allows guest with valid ID, but since I was a late add on I decided to book the Holiday Inn express for myself. I did not know this site existed before I booked it and it is nonrefundable so I am stuck staying there. I have a few questions and I apologize if they have been asked before but it seems like things are changing around the city. Has anyone stayed at the Holiday Inn and if so how was it to bring chicas back there? I plan on utilizing tinder while I'm there as well as the other sites that are in the forum as well as the hot spots. Another question, does anyone know of a good agency or person to book a party boat at a decent price or someone they have used before? Also instead of buying party favors off the street from a random vendor does anyone know of a decent street pharmacist that isn't so shady LOL. Last but not least about currency exchange where is the best place to get the best bang for my buck that won't try and rip me off? Oh one more thing, If anyone is local there or plan on being there around the same time would like to grab a beer or coffee please let me know. I should have some reports on my day to day once I go.

P.S.: read the forum (RTFF) and you'll find an answer to all your questions, including if booking the Holiday Inn was a good idea.

[QUOTE=Stevespy56;2229619]Hello everyone,

First off I would like to thank everyone for their detailed reports! It really gives me an idea of what to expect before traveling. I am new to this forum but I use which I think is the sister site of USAsexguide often. I plan on going to Cartenga Oct. 11 through the 16 with a group of 10 or more people. They rented a AirBNB which the policy allows guest with valid ID, but since I was a late add on I decided to book the Holiday Inn express for myself. I did not know this site existed before I booked it and it is nonrefundable so I am stuck staying there. I have a few questions and I apologize if they have been asked before but it seems like things are changing around the city. Has anyone stayed at the Holiday Inn and if so how was it to bring chicas back there? I plan on utilizing tinder while I'm there as well as the other sites that are in the forum as well as the hot spots. Another question, does anyone know of a good agency or person to book a party boat at a decent price or someone they have used before? Also instead of buying party favors off the street from a random vendor does anyone know of a decent street pharmacist that isn't so shady LOL. Last but not least about currency exchange where is the best place to get the best bang for my buck that won't try and rip me off? Oh one more thing, If anyone is local there or plan on being there around the same time would like to grab a beer or coffee please let me know. I should have some reports on my day to day once I go.[/QUOTE]I can answer your Holiday Inn question, I stayed there for a few days in June. They will let your first guest in for free but they will permanently register her, meaning that they will charge you for any guests after that. I was paying 245 k a night and for me to have a second guest, they wanted 250 k extra. Yes that's right, more that what I was paying for the room. Needless to say, I left the day after I found that out and stayed at the Hampton. Safe travels buddy.

I bailed on Medellin, it looks like too much of a monger scene, I avoid it. Looked at La Vane list and already have better lined up in Caratagena. No idea what that is about, zero.

For a bit of background in November it will be the third anniversary of my visits to Cartagena. I've gone every 3 months and my most recent trip has me reflecting on things.

[B]We're not in Kansas anymore[/B]

The influx of Venezuelans has started to leave its mark on the city's mongering scene. This includes safety, the kind of chicas you will get, and the general mood of the city. It's not all bad but also, my personal opinion, is that Colombia is permanently changing due to the problems in Venezuela.

Let's start with safety: usually a taxi will drop me off in front of the clock tower plaza, outside the walls. This requires crossing the road and going into the old city. No big deal right? Every time I got out of the taxi a couple of dudes would come running up from nowhere and offer me something: an energy drink, 10 k pesos and ask me to break it into 5's, or just ask for directions. These guys look dangerous and melt into the night the moment I crossed the road to get into the old city. They are up to something so watch out. Shake your head and keep moving.

I've been told by several chicas not to be drunk late at night in the old city alone. While there are always police patrols, there have been reports of robberies. With that said I did not experience any incidents. Just be alert. There are criminals looking to fuck you if you're not careful.

While I have a Venezuelan chica I like to bang, I find they are generally demanding, have a husband or boyfriend living with them, and are looking to suck as money money as possible from you. Shit is bad in their home country and they need money big time. I don't mean to paint them all as bad apples but I found myself much more relaxed with Colombian chicas who took their time and didn't act like peso vampires.

[B] The Clocktower Plaza [/B]

Police are coming out and checking documentation of the chicas. They then ask the chicas to move out of the plaza (nicely). The chicas mostly do but some will stick around. As far as I can tell there's not much the cops can do unless the chica doesn't have her papers in order. I literally saw chicas present their documents, talk to the cop, shake their heads and go back to what they were doing. Keep in mind in Colombia the constitution guarantees people the right to work. That includes hookers.

Consequently, ground zero these days is more of the path between Elektra, Space and La Dulce Vita. At one point walking out of La Dulce Vita I had 8 chicas swarm me as they were walking by me and tap me on my body: "Tu conmigo amor! Tu conmigo!

[B] The places [/B]

Space is a club with a large dance floor and no where to breath. I personally avoid it unless its your kind of thing. La Dulce Vita is more intimate bar scene, with a restaurant now, upstairs, in case you get the munchies. Elektra is a bit of club and bar. Chicas will stand around and try to get your attention.

There's no one place that is hot all the time. Some nights Elektra was rocking, others Space. La Dulce Vita also tends to have good nights and nights with only a few chicas. Chicas will move between them pretty regularly.

There was one night in La Dulce Vita with a fairly fat Asian guy and his friends. The fat, very large dude, kept bumping into my chair at the bar. When I patted him on his big shoulders he turned around and kept yelling LO SIENTO LO SIENTO and tried to hug me. I moved away. This guy basically killed the night for everyone as he kept doing this to anyone who came anywhere near him.

[B] Under siege [/B]

I fucked and had, mostly a good time, but the city really felt different. My regular tout was extremely demanding. Always trying to get me to part with money for bullshit things I didn't want to do. I usually use him to organize a trip or two during my stay and that's it. Nearing the end he straight up asked for 200 k as a loan. I told him he'll scare away customers acting like that.

Chicas were unrelenting on whatsapp. Every fucking day AMOR AMOR AMOR. They kept hammering me for times to come visit.

Last September was rocking and fun. I'm planning one more trip in November. If the mood continues to feel so desperate I think I won't be going anymore. We'll see.

The influx of Venezuelans is not a surprise. However, I was surprised to read:

(1) Chicas aggressively pursuing you outside LDV and on WhatsApp. Is this because of the increased supply / competition from the Venezuelanas? Or is there another reason?

(2) I understand the Venezuelanas pestering for more money. However, what is the quality (on a scale of 1 to 10)?
Do the Venezuelanas charge LESS than the Colombians? Or is it bait and swiitch i.e. Initial rate is less, but once inside the room they demand more?

(3) The Colombian girls must be angry at this influx. Did they express their frustration to you? Are they going to fight by accepting a lower price?

Thanks again,
BKKguru.

[/QUOTE]It's a sign of desperation. Keep in mind end of September is not high season. Cartagena makes most of its money in January and March. With things getting worse in Venezuela every day the chicas are much more desperate. The only exception is one chica who has her entire family now in Colombia. She's much cooler than the others I encountered.

[/QUOTE]They always did charge less but after almost three years of doing it the more experienced ones try to nickle and dime for more. Colombian chicas are much cooler. You can go out dancing, and drinking and then bang her in the morning for 300 k and she'll happly come out again another night. It's good money and they enjoy a good time. Venezuelans are on a clock to get money fast because they need it.

[/QUOTE]There's no outward anger directed at Venezuelans. Privately they tell me to stay away from them and they are right.

BTW, a lot more pimps around. You can see them in the Plaza and even on the beaches. Not touts. Just dudes that sit with or around the chicas quietly. Colombians rarely have a handler out in the open like that. My personal view, there's a Venezuelan mafia developing or growing in Colombian cities. That's purely my opinion.

[/QUOTE]Great report. Question on these clubs. Are the music played in these clubs mostly Latin salsa etc or EDM? Are there live bands playing too in these bars?

[QUOTE=Ggekko2009;2231270]Great report. Question on these clubs. Are the music played in these clubs mostly Latin salsa etc or EDM?

Sometimes the mix will be right off youtube with a screen showing the music videos. Elektra and Space has a DJ, while La Dulce Vita is a bar and hence no DJ.

[QUOTE=TheTallMan;2219837]I am thinking about next month (mid October) spending a week in Cartagena as I will have a celebration of sorts, so my idea is to rent a boat for the day (6 to 8 hours), something to carry about a dozen people, with music and dancing, drinks and other party favors, I have a good colombian friend from Medellin who will party with me, I want at 6 to 9 chicas (clothing optional, jejeje) bikini clad hotties a couple of whom I will probably import from Medellin, so my questions:

1. Any one who maybe in Cartagena during this time interested in sharing costs? It could be a party to remember.

2. I am thinking about my boat budget of 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 pesos, any one rented before and have any insight?

3. The 3 or 4 chicas whom I will import from Medellin are totally down for this, I plan on paying their air fair along with providing housing and food for 2 or 3 days PLUS a small stipend. How to invite local chicas and what kind of offering is advised?

4. My budget for alcohol and some eats for the day boat trip is 750 mil.

5. I want good loud music, do the boat have good sound systems or do I need to hire a DJ?

Anyone with comments and suggestions, especially those that have done this before is greatly appreciated.

The Tall Man.[/QUOTE]My buddy and I are in Cartagena from October 15th to the 19th. If you are around there at the same time we would love to meet and party. Not sure when you are planning to hire the boat. We are definitely game for that if its on those dates when we are there.

Let me know.

[QUOTE=TheTallMan;2219837]

2. I am thinking about my boat budget of 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 pesos, any one rented before and have any insight?
[/QUOTE]This is the type of boat I got for 1. 5 million pesos. I used it from 9 am until sundown (sixish I think) back in February. You could get a different type as well so have whoever is renting you the boat show you pictures. From what I recall someone else posted here about paying 6 million pesos for a big yatch.

I tried to contact one of the mileroticos posting via WhatsApp and got immediate response back with a whole set of pictures. Pictures of these chicas look like models which made me suspicious. These pictures have the same phone number and some of them even have the word Divas Spas printed on them.

Has anyone used these agencies?

Long time, no post. I just wanted to mention few things. I'm unsure if they were stated previously so my apologies if they were. If you like the NFL, the clock tower pub in centro has NFL Sunday Ticket and you can watch any game you'the like. LDV was closed on a Monday. In my opinion, the girls at the clock tower do appear to be getting younger. They are also more scattered throughout the first few streets of the walled city instead of in front of the clock tower. Found some semi pros in the centro nightclubs such as Tu Candela and Eivissa. Finally, The Rub Spa massage parlor does not offer sex. The girls there do Nuru style massages with a tug at the end. But the girls are gorgeous.

The Tall Man.[/QUOTE]Hi TM, I am also in Cartagena the 14 - 20. Would be interested in potentially joining the fun and contributing if this is still a plan for you.

Speedman.

Tentatively planning to arrive in Cartagena on 12/7. I know many chicas go home for the holidays. How soon in December do they typically migrate?

Anybody know if they're typically still around 12/7-12/14? Or, should I plan to come back another time?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Gents,

I am in Cartagena for another trip Oct 14-20. It's a business trip (yes lucky me!) actually so I won't be totally free all the time, but looking for wingmen to hit some of the clubs and check out the mongering scene in general. I have been to Cartagena before but mostly pulled very successfully from Tinder. My pipeline is already solid for next weeks trip, love that thing. So looking to experience some of the more mellow and cool club scenes for meeting the lovelies. Have zero interest in crushing EDM scene. LOL. Staying in Old Town for part and Laguito for the other.

PM me directly if you're in town or even if you have recommendations for a particular girl and her WhatsApp or a club / casa to hit.

Thanks, first rounds are on me, Speedman.

Took a walk through the centro historico area, passed by the infamous clock tower as the clock struck 10. Ironic because the last few times that I was in Cartagena, the clock wasn't working. Probably a bit early, about 15 chicas working, all shapes and sizes. As the night goes on, the numbers increase. By midnight, maybe 25 chicas. There wasn't as many as a few months ago but possibly because it was only Wednesday night and the police have started randomly checking the girls documents and some girls are spread out along the side streets or just not standing in the center of the square as they were previously. Prices quoted were any anywhere from 150 k-200 k per hour. Took a look inside Dolce Vita, only two ladies working. Went to Electra around midnight. Then ended up at Space, around 1 am. The place was packed. Lots of chicas. Beers cost anywhere from 12 k-15 k but be forewarned if you don't have the exact amount, your change will be given in 500 peso coins. This is only interesting because the girl I brought back later helped herself to all of my coins and then raided the minibar when I was in the shower. Not worried about the coins but after noticing she had raided the minibar even after I had provided her with a generous propina was more than disappointing. Paid for an hour and got 40 minutes. Off to Medellin.

[B] If you need to take a shower, with a chica in the room, keep her in the shower with you until you finish.[/B]

If there's not room in the shower for 2, escort her out first. You've fucked her and paid her. There's no reason for her to stay one second longer, unless you have decided to fuck her again, or you want to give her the opportunity to rip you off.

It pisses me off to be with girls with this kind of behavior, like helping herself to loose change, raiding the mini bar without permission and short changing you on time. To me, it is no better than stealing, and I am pretty sure if given the chance, they will steal and rob from you all the same.

Since you mention mini-bar, I assume you stayed in a hotel. Do you get charged by the hotel to bring back the girl?

Why would someone doing, what anyone should expect them to do, [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] you off?

These aren't choir girls from your local church. They see your wealth as some endless stream of gold, even if you're just making a lower middle class income. Of course their going to help themselves. You've got enough money to fly halfway around the world (most are weak on geography), rent a fancy hotel room or apartment full of incredible luxury, you eat in nice restaurants, go to clubs and bars and still have plenty of money to pay them a week's wage for just an hour or so of their time.

Now you're probably looking around and wondering where all the incredible luxury is. It's just a pretty standard room. Here's some of the things you take for granted that they don't have: air conditioning, hot water, an oven, a washer and dryer, blankets, possibly even pillows, a ceiling. Yes, a ceiling. Many of them have the bottom of a piece of corrugated tin for a ceiling. How many people back home do you know who don't own a car? How many people do you think most of them know, that owns a car?

I'm not trying to drum up sympathy for them. I'm trying to keep people from making thoughtless mistakes. Their world isn't your world. It's easy to forget that. They deal with crap every day that would have most of us running home to momma. What do you think happens when one of them leaves her phone out somewhere? Or is walking along with her nose in her phone? Someone will steal it. That money you give them. What happens if they forget to hide it? Someone steals it. If they get too much nice stuff, someone steals it.

That's their world. Nobody is going to look out for them. Nobody is going to help them. Nobody is going to think anything bad about them if they steal a few dollars from a rich gringo.

There's an easy solution. Nothing gets taken, nobody gets pissed off. Don't give them the opportunity. If you want to give them a drink, you get them a drink. If you want to take a shower before or after, take a shower with them. It's a lot more fun than showering alone and the only thing they can take is your soap. Do whatever it is you want with them. Always with them. And when you're finished with them, pay them and walk them out.

Phun here.

It's been a number of years since I posted, I kinda got tired of all the side chatter.

But I do think this comment is worth a ditto. Some of these chicas come from a dog-eat-dog atmosphere.

But no need to pile on the guy, let's put this into perspective: losing a bunch of 500 peso coins is almost a favor! I hate those coins, LOL! The mini-bar is a different story; that's annoying, but I'd rather get raided at the mini-bar than lose my wallet, camera, or phone.

As long as it wasn't an overpriced bottle of rum or scotch she opened, it wasn't a bad night.

In the future, take the shower with the girl.

Or here's some more tips: if you prefer solo showers take your pants / valuables with you into the bathroom and disrobe in the bathroom.

Tell her to take a shower before the session; when she's in the bathroom, that's when you hide some of your cash (I usually put it right under the part of the mattress I lie on) and other valuables and do a final security check.

You can throw your pants up on the highest piece of furniture, or in the deepest corner of some drawer. Or you can take your luggage and some other heavy thing and throw it on top of your pants.

Never put everything in the safe. Safes can be compromised. Sometimes, the girl is in cahoots with hotel security!

Here's what I do sometimes with mini-bars: take out the expensive stuff and hide it. Put your own drinks and snacks in the mini-bar! Just remember to put the hotel's stuff back in before the cleaning lady comes in during her morning rounds.

I know some guys just want to party hard, drink hard, and be on full vacation mode when out mongering; tracking all these details can be a real hassle. But the reality is it's better that your mental mode be a little more "James Bond" and a little less "Bill and Ted in Cancun" As Jjbee points out, these chicas come from a pretty tough environment.

[/QUOTE]I always stock my room with drinks and snacks, then when you invite a girl over tell her that you have snacks and drinks but the stuff in the mini bar is very expensive so please don't take anything from there, I have never had a girl take something from the mini bar after I've told them not to.

[QUOTE=Manizales911;2235314]I just put all my stuff in my suitcase and put a padlock on it, how hard is that.[/QUOTE]Not hard at all. How hard is it for a girl to take your suitcase, walk out and jump into a taxi with it, while you're in the shower? Maybe security stops her, maybe not. Why give someone the opportunity? What's so critical about a shower that you can't wait 2 minutes to say Chao to the prostitute you just paid, first?

About 7 months ago a guy in Medellin had a girl over. He had apparently seen her a few times before. I know the girl. She's not a clock watcher. She'll hang out and smoke, or drink and she usually puts in a lot of effort to earn your money. He thought he had a connection with her. He went to the bathroom and when he came out she was gone, along with the money in his wallet and his phone.

I talked to her. Tried to get her to at least return the phone. Even offered to work a deal where he paid a little to buy the phone back. No deal. She had some bad things to say about him and felt like she deserved everything she took.

He did something dumb. He mistook a good fuck for a good friend. How many guys make the same mistake and never tell anyone about it? How many guys fly a chica from Medellin to wife up for a week and 3 days later wake up to find she left and cleaned him out? How many guys get drugged and robbed, but are too embarrassed to report it? Usually this happens because some gringo forgot that he's with a prostitute in a third world country. They start thinking they're renting girlfriends, or worse, that the girls really enjoy being with them.

Every one of the girls is a professional liar. They are paid to lie to (and with) us and convince us we're the greatest lover they've ever known. They are paid to convince us we're not fat, balding, old men going through a mid-life crisis. They're paid to convince us that, if they didn't need the money so much, they would be doing it for free. They're paid to convince us they want us. Add a "the" and you get what they really want. USD.

Don't get me wrong. I love the Colombianas. I know a lot of Colombianas that I consider to be friends (on other words, they talk to me without asking for money or for a cita). I also realize how far apart our worlds are.

So why trust them? Bring them in, do your thing, send them home. Don't let your guard down. Don't give them the temptation and they'll be perfect little angels.

[QUOTE=JjBee62;2235640]Not hard at all. How hard is it for a girl to take your suitcase, walk out and jump into a taxi with it, while you're in the shower?[/QUOTE]You are right. But in my extensive travels it has never happened but maybe it is because I don't bring street rats or any girl that I don't trust just enough to not take a large suitcase out of my room and through a hotel lobby or by the apartment portero, that would take some balls.

I had no idea that my original post would generate so much buzz. This isn't my first rodeo, not my first time in Cartagena or Colombia for that matter. If you're staying in a hotel, put your valuables in the safe. If you're staying in an apartment without a safe, better have a damn good hiding spot. I'm a generous person. However it pisses me off if a girl starts going through things just to steal. Of course I showered with the girl, she got out quick and went to get her clothes. Maybe I had beginners luck my first few times here but I had girls that didn't steal, stayed overnight until mid afternoon. I took them to breakfast and lunch. Hell even went to the beach. My experience here is if a girl asks for and demands $ up front, it's going to lead to poor service. Other girls here didn't demand money upfront and it was very much GFE. Similar to what one may find in other parts of the world.

Such as SE Asia. Anyhow, I was out late last night, probably 10 chicas still working in the center at 5 am. When then the clubs close around 4 am there are bargains to be had.

I have already posted it before, - I always lock the apartment door with a key and hide it until we leave together to the lobby / security / lobby / taxi. My suitcase is hard side one. Sure, she can throw it out of the balcony or her gang can knock out the door. Anyway, make your apartment or suite chica proof, then lock the door.

Staying in a building with security, a key locked door, stashing your valuables, etc. Too many guys don't take the precautions, or forget, or decide "this girl is different. I don't have to worry about her. ".

Maybe what gets taken ends up being just a minor inconvenience. Maybe it turns out like the guy in Medellin last December. Girl let her boyfriend in. Boyfriend tried to rob him, guy fought back, got stabbed and killed. Maybe it ends up like the guy last month who let a girl mix a drink for him. She drugged him and cleaned him out. He was lucky. There is a lethal dosage of Scopolamine.

For all the warnings about the dangerous areas of every city, the most frequent problems happen in the hotels and apartments.

Arrived this morning for 3 days.

Place looks scary almost like Santa Fe.

Didn't explore around so maybe it is just this Laguito area.

We will see.

[QUOTE=Phunluv;2235155]Hi guys,

Here's what I do sometimes with mini-bars: take out the expensive stuff and hide it. Put your own drinks and snacks in the mini-bar! Just remember to put the hotel's stuff back in before the cleaning lady comes in during her morning rounds.

I know some guys just want to party hard, drink hard, and be on full vacation mode when out mongering; tracking all these details can be a real hassle. But the reality is it's better that your mental mode be a little more "James Bond" and a little less "Bill and Ted in Cancun" As Jjbee points out, these chicas come from a pretty tough environment.[/QUOTE]Right on! Also, in terms of minibars, most decent hotels will oblige if you ask them to remove the content. Minibars with sensor slots are the worst since housekeeping hates messing with those, but the manager will usually override their objections if you insist.

Super easy scene. Stayed at Eliptic no problem with guests. Beach is cool scene found mi amor there and she stayed three days. If you look like a gringo sucker maybe it's another story and you need a little Spanish. Comparedto Havana this is like this is super facil. Playa Hollywood for me and I never bothered with the casas. only downside is Colombian girls really don't know how to give blowjobs. ..they fuck excellente though.

Also, after reading through the warnings and PSA, it looks like I need to invest in a few steel cables and locks next, so that I can lock up my bags and then tie them to a furniture or something to make any attempts to steal that much more difficult. It feels like Colombia is a much trickier terrain to navigate than South East Asia. I guess it is better to be safe than sorry.

So are most places but you have to check. As far as safety, common sense. I try and find one good chica and keep her around. And there are plenty the whole country is about sex and coffee. But after a few weeks I want a good old fashioned Anerican blow job.

With that said I have been the worst offender of this rule. This happened in another country but its about keeping safe. So I pick up this very attractive small blond early twenties with a killer body. We drive to my hotel and we have a beer to break the ice. Out of nowhere she stands up and says I just can't do this. As she leaves she says I will make my own way back to the city. Out the door she goes and me and spike are very disappointed. I'm planning my next move and in about 20 minutes she is back. I make sure she's alone and let her in. She says she needs the money and has changed her mind. We set down and finish our beers and before long were having a great time and having another beer. Half way through the second beer she jumps up with glassy eyes and screams at me you bastard you switched the beers I said HUH what are you talking about. So out the door she staggers screaming you SOB you switched the beers. Through the window I watch her Jump in a car with A guy in the parking lot. OK Its obvious what happened. I guess I did switch the beers and I would like to say It was on purpose but No it was blind luck. Always keep in mind when in your room and your having a drink with your guest, stay on your toes and keep this incident in mind.

Bob.

This is a continuation of my report traveling through Panama, Bogota, Medellin and Cartagena.

My first FB Amiga tried to fix me up with another friend in Cartagena but she was out of town for the holiday. My group tour finished on Saturday and I moved to a different hotel for the Sunday and Monday. I had been contacting girls from [URL]photoprepagos.com[/URL] but at lot were out of town for the long weekend and did not respond. The girls that did respond liked to chat back and forth on WA and send pictures and prices as required. My hotel was just outside the old city walls and a really nice place. I asked the guy at the front desk if there was a problem if I brought an Amiga back to my room and he had no issue with it so I gave hem 10000 pesos tip. I connected with a sexy 25 year old and she came and visited around 7 pm for a great session but not quite the girlfriend experience that I had previously with the FB girls.

After she was gone I decided to go see what it was like at the clock tower. There were only a handful of girls around 10 pm. I made the mistake to talk to one and she was trying to set her hooks into me and would not leave me and started to follow me. I eventually got away from her. She was attractive but I was done for the night. I went into La Dolce Vita around 11 but there were only 3 girls in there and no one else, not much of a party scene. After I walked away from there When I went by the clock tower. Next thing I know I ran into that girl again but was able to lose her. At the clock tower there were some stunning girls there and the police were checking IDs of a small group of them.

The next day I was tired of the heat and humidity during the day and I was scheduled to go for a city tour at 4 pm. So I decided to order in again from photoprepagos. I found a sweet 21 year old who was an afternoon delight. There was a lady working the front desk that day and when I told her that my Amiga was going to visit she just smile and said no problema. I was planning on ordering in again later in the night but I thought I would be too tired so I cancelled her and grabbed a bite to eat in my neighbourhood. When I was looking for a restaurant I ran into a nice looking street girl. While I was having supper she kept on walking the neighbourhood. After I finished she was still around so we chatted and I decided to try some street meat. When we were in the room she kept on asking for more money, things were not the greatest so I told her to go. I should have kept my delivery order.

So that was my Latin American experience this year. I still chat with my 3 FB girls. Who knows what will happen next trip.

Hi TM,

I am also in Cartagena the 25-30. Will be renting a yacht on 26th. PM me if still in CTG then.

I have written several articles were I have screwed up and left myself in a bad situation when bringing a chica back to my room. I'm lucky that I haven't been robbed or worse. Each and every time I have let myself get into a rough situation I have had too much to drink. OK I like to drink but in the last few years I changed my drinking habits. If I'm out to pick up a chica and bring her back to my apartment I don't drink so much. I start out with a bottle of water. This works for me. Some of you guys are so worried about safety that it will probably screw up your trip. It really isn't that bad out there. First of all choose the right hotel or apartment to stay at. If your staying at a place that has a doorman this should solve most of your safety concerns. If your room has a safe your home free. No more worries. So you bring a chica home if you take a shower bring your pants in the bathroom with you. Take a quick shower and then the fun begins. In all of my years with the hundreds of chicas I have brought home I have never had a girl steal my clothes or my suitcase. That's just nonsense. Stop worrying. Take a few precautions and have a good time.

After she was gone I decided to go see what it was like at the clock tower. There were only a handful of girls around 10 pm. [/QUOTE]Most chicas will not show up in the old city before 11 pm. Around midnight the clock tower gets busy and the chicas start going to their clubs of choice (La Dulce Vida, Elektra, or Space). Some will hang around the clock tower and you'll then see them with their customer at Tu Candela or other places nearby.

This is the one bad thing about Cartagena. You have to be willing to hit the streets very late to catch any street action.

Some know that I spend much time in Medellin, close to half of each year but always wanted to check the costena chicas out in the northern coast, so spent a week in both Cartagena and Santa Marta.

In CTG I stayed in the old town just a few blocks over from the clock tower and around the corner from the night clubs. Each night just observed and met chicas for hours each night at the Clock Tower. Just learning the grind of the mongering scene in Cartagena. One night I did settle in on a chica from Barranquilla, yes a real costena as many chicas are either Venezuelan or from other Colombian cities. As I recall I paid 150 mil and she was a sweet heart, only because I picked right and got lucky. Had a few hours with her back in my hotel room.

In Santa Marta on one of the beaches at evening I found me a gem, a 20 yo sweetheart from Venezuela, paid 120 mil and spent the night in a love motel for 110 mil.

I can see that if I spent the same amount of time in CTG I could develop the equal amount of a stable of girls like I have here in Medellin.

Although I enjoyed the experience it is good to be back in my familiar ground in Medellin, have had 3 or 4 chicas in the past week alone here with one being my ATF as she is reasonably priced at 100 mil for 2 or 3 hours and has the passion of 10 chicas for love making.

I don't know if I ever want or will return to the coast as there are many places to explore in this country.

The Tall Man.

El Mechanico.[/QUOTE]I believe lancha means speed boat or small boat, and barco means a yacht or a bigger boat. Google around there are websites with companies that offer boat rentals. Cartagena won't be cheap because its where all the tourists go. That boat makes money off tourism and not fishing usually.

Have you considered Santa Marta or Barranquilla? Probably much better luck there for a normal fishing trip.

EDIT: Oh wait you just want a ticket to Rosario Islands? There are tons of little stores that offer tickets for trips. You end up getting on the boat at the pier just before the old city. I think its less than 100k for a trip to a resort. Not sure what destination you have in mind.

EDIT 2: You know what? From Laguito get a speed boat for 20-30k to Isla Tierra Bomba and talk to the locals there. Lots of people live on that island and they fish.

The limits are usually 600 k or 700 k twice a day. Always charge in COP and your bank at home should give you the best rate. The only time you should go to a money changer is you're bringing in tons of money to change that would go over these limits.

Hi Tall Man,

I'm looking to head to the coastal area mid Dec (before Christmas) and hoping to find the best choice between (Carta, BQ or SM) for a combined hang at the beach + mongering maybe 2-3 nights out of 7.

I've mongered in the DR, Mexico (Cancun), Cuba, Costa Rica (Jaco), Saint Martin and Rio. To name just a few.

If you asked me to build my perfect vacation spot it would be hanging by day on hotel row in Cancun (beautiful beach & easy hotel access to turquoise waters) and by night, without too far a travel, areas that have zones for mongering. Like Saint Martin, Medellin and San Jose (Costa Rica) would provide.

Is there any mongering in Santa Marta or will I need to prepare ahead and line something up on PhotoPrepagos or any other site (recommendations welcome) and settle for pot luck?

From what I researched online, Santa Marta would be a good compromise for me as there are hotels on the beach so I can just walk out in the AM, have my eggs and coffee, chill at the beach with a good book and my music.

And then at night, hop in a taxi and find the mongering zone in Santa Marta. LOL.

Am I dreaming or do you think Santa Marta can answer my prayers?

BTW, my Spanish is minimal and prob can do okay with combo WhatsApp and Google Translate.

Thanks so much advance.

Ok. Beaches in Colombia are crowded and probably not what you are looking for if comparing to the Carribean. There is fun to be had in Santa Marta read the threads and take it from there. But as far as a relaxing beach. No.

Buddy and I landed at 12:40 pm At CTG from MIA and several hundred people were already in line at custom / immigration line. Apparently many flights arrive about the same time in CTG. Note to travelers from Canada: for some reason the fare for American Airlines flights originating in Canada didn't include the entrance fee so my buddy had to pay the fee in a separate line before clearing customs.

Exchanged small USD for 2750 COP at the airport and pay 20 K for taxi to Bocagrande waterfront condo by 2:30. Tried to get a better exch rate at the banks and not one was higher than 2850 COP; some banks didn't even buy US dollars. FYI I got 1 USD=3170 COP on the credit card charges and no foreign transaction fees. Still had to exchange cash to pay for mongering but that is all I used cash for.

Since we both have girlfriends in town we agreed in advance to wife up for a couple of nights and keep our third night free. Went to Playa Hollywood and vicinity for recon and saw a few 6's or 7's and 1 or 2 8's and most were from Medellin. That evening and night was with the girlsfriends, dinner at La Casa De Socorro in Getsemani; traditional food in a nice atmosphere, ok but nothing special and overall pricey for typical Colombian food (I like their girls but not their food).

The girlfriends left to go to work in the am after bfast and us boys went for a lazy day by the beach. As soon as we walked across Calle 1 we saw two girls in bikinis ogling us. A quick chat and my buddy reached behind the bikini-top of one of them and manhandled her boob! Exchanged numbers and arranged for the 19 yo moreno for my pal and a 22 mullatto for me both from Medellin for after lunch and we continued our beach walk. Again, we noted new talent on the beach but not an overwhelming number. Bud chatted with a 23 yo 8. 5 or 9 with a gorgeous bod but her friend was not that attractive. Because we have an understanding that we both pull chicas at the same time and watch each other's back he passed.

Back to the condo and our friends arrived at 2:30 for fun. I like to be sure their tacos are clean so showered together and thoroughly soaped them. Then complete GFE with uncovered head and lots of passion. The only thing better would have been larger tits and she had little be cups. Easily 90 minutes had passed and my bud says he wants to hang out with his chic for longer. I am in my 50's and already had two rounds so didn't have much left but was ok because of our agreement. My bud is 10 years younger than me and had awesome sex and would have stayed with the moreno for the full trip but this time I vetoed that idea. Our agreed rate was 150 K each but we ended up giving each 200 K for the 2-3 hours they hang out with us plus 30 K for taxi. Some kind of a festival for the indigenous people of Bolivar State that day and a parade and activities throughout the town and some people had the day off so the mood was festive and we did our share!!

Again the night was with the girlfriends and dinner at white linen Boka Restaurant in Bocagrande. Definitely better quality and more modern choice of meals and the price was similar to Soccoro. My bud had lots of fun making his girlfriend participate in his fantasies with him that night. I am not as adventurous plus I was worn out already and was trying to save some energy for the trip to Medellin.

For our last day, we rested and ate and drank at the beach. In my 2016 trip we pulled at least 10 girls from around Torre Del Reloj as everyone knows it's ground zero for action and so saved the last night for it. Arrived at clock tower at 9:00 and live concert at the Convention Center and thousands of people on the street. The plaza was packed with people and talent everywhere some obvious and some more hidden. We walked a bit and grabbed a few drinks at a couple of bars but most people were outside. I expected more gringo mongers around but didn't notice many, perhaps because of the festival or maybe because it was still early. My bud wanted to quickly pull a Venezuelan but I held him back. Around 11:00 he saw her again and was hot on her tail and negotiated 150 K for the hour. There was a gorgeous blond tall chic I liked who wanted 250 K for 1 hour and wouldn't come down. The night before my girl already had me drained so for a change I wasn't thinking with my small head and I passed. We took a taxi and I did my emails while bud completed his deed. He was done quickly and felt she was too mechanical and disengaged so the night ended on a blah note. Next am We had flights to MDE at 11:20. I will update that section shortly.

Thoughts: I consistently got greater than 3150 COP to 1 USD on credit card charges vs. The highest I got in MDE for cash was 2890/ USD. I know some of you use ATMs but I didn't and I am guessing exch rate is as good on CC. All restaurants I visited accepted credit cards even some hole in the wall places. Compared to my last visit in 2016 I think more places accept credit cards. One place added a 5% surcharge, a ripoff and the owner used to live in London and spoke English fluently. From then on everywhere I went I asked if they accept credit cards without surcharge. I recommend getting a credit card with no foreign transaction fees. Finally, I want to thank the many contributors on this forum. Your insights and points were invaluable in saving me time and money and I hope I can reciprocate.

Day 1.

Landed at CTG in the afternoon to a hot and humid day. The custom would wave me through when they saw that you have anything to declare. I should have brought along my drone, but never mind since there is always the next time. Met up with my friend who had arrived at the airport a few hours ahead of me.

As already mentioned repeatedly by the others, your best way to obtain Colombian Peso is via the ATM. So far, most ATMs limit your transaction to 600 Mil, but I was able to withdraw a higher limit of 780 Mil via the Bank ITau ATM. I was able to get a rate of 3170 peso to USD for that day even after factoring the ATM fee they charge. Tip: Do not let the ATM translate your withdrawal into USD when that option is presented to you since you always get the sucker rate if you do that. Always do it in their local pesos.

After meeting up with my friend, we walked up to the official taxi line and the lady behind the counter would ask for my destination and hand me a printout on how much it cost to get there. The taxis here do not run on meters. They run by zones. So a trip from the airport to Bocagrande zone is 19 Mil which we would just round up to 20 Mil when paying the driver. By the way, the concept of Mil in the Colombian currency threw me off slightly which I am still trying to get use to. It looks like a sneaky way for the Colombian government to mask their inflation by looping off their last three zeroes and call them Mil in return.

Met up with the apartment manager at Palmetto Eliptic and he helped me with the registration at the front desk. Again no issue with bringing back overnight guests but with a slight caveat. It looks like there is a quota of allowed guests. I don't know if it is tied to the duration of the stay. Once the quota is used up, in my case four, you would then need to purchase additional quota at a cost of 20 Mil per two guests. Anyway, it is not a big issue for me as long as the rule is clear.

Here is a list of recommended places as provided by the property manager.

Supermarkets (Exito, Carulla, Olimpica).

Nightclubs (media luna hostel. Wednesday party, eivissa, la movida, la jugada, babar, fragma).

Bars (alquimico, El baron, Cafe del Mar., The clock pub).

Breakfast (Malanga, La brioche).

Lunch (Novo kebab grill. Delicious kebabs / shawarmas, la cevicheria. Local food with specialty in shellfish, la mulatta. A type of local food, bacco trattoria. Pastas pizzas wine, El santisimo. Local food).

Dinner (Maria. Seafood, Don juan. Seafood, Carmen, Quebracho. Fine dining and steak, La vitrola).

Now for the best part, places to look for chicas: dolce vita, isis and the clocktower.

The best place for model looking girls: PleyClub (more on PleyClub in my next report).

My buddy and I would head out to the Walled City at 7 pm for dinner. What I have learned from that night's trip was that there was a huge contrast in the area, especially around the clock tower, before and after 10 pm. If you plan to look for working chicas there, do so after 10 pm, since I hardly see any of them before that.

Our first stop is at Dolce and ironically for dinner as the menu was appealing enough for both of us. We were surprised that Dolce was just a regular restaurant before 9 pm, and to our amusement that the chef sound offended when we asked about Dolce the dance club.

After dinner, we would explore the walled city as regular tourists since there was no way we can see any action happening during this time. It was as family friendly as you would get in the Walled City. At around 10 pm, we went to isis, the dance club that is. But seriously, they need to change their brand name, since by just typing this name, it gives off a bad vibe. Anyway, my first impression there was a big disappointment. The place was largely deserted and this was on a Saturday night which technically should also be the busiest night. There was only a handful of girls in there which we later found out that they actually were bound to the club. That is because we need to bar fine (150 Mil) the girl should we decide to bring them out. My buddy had a liking for a Colombian chica there and would bar fine her later that night. Before that, we would get her WhatsApp info and ventured into Dolce.

By then, Dolce had been completely transformed. There were a lot of chicas streaming in and out of the club, and definitely a lot to choose from. EDM music was playing in the background and many chicas would be standing around. I suppose the seats were mostly reserved for other customers. Anyway, the ratio is heavily tilted towards the buyers' market.

Based on my experience that night, 200 Mil is pretty much the asking price for short time per hour and 400-450 Mil is an acceptable range for long time in that area. I ended up with a Venezuelan chica that night while my buddy went back to isis to pick up his girl.

Servibanca ATMs give max 780 k. They are the green ones, all around the cities. There is one in CTG at the right facing the clock tower from outside, and one in MDE at Oviedo mall at the right of the manzana facing it from the street.

[/QUOTE]That's why exchange booths and banks have a healthy business and never feel the crisis. They should send you a Christmas card this December.

At the airport, you paid some 18% commission fee (the official interbank rate is around 3250 COP for 1 USD). Exchange booths at airports, nearly any airport worldwide, are well known to apply such ripoff rates, yet they find unaware customers.

Use the credit cards to purchase goods (e.g. at restaurants) and use cash to pay mongering, but [U]get your cash from ATMs using a DEBIT CARD[/U]. Avoid using a credit card to get advance cash from ATMs (in this case, you get the best rate as when you withdraw with the debit card, or when you pay with credit card purchasing a good, but you pay 4% fee for the advance cash withdrawal service, as basically they are lending you money).
Should we repeat this once a day?

Day 2:

Spent our day catching up with our sleep in the afternoon since we knew that it's pointless to go to the walled city for any action before 9 pm. We did another round of shopping stocking up on snacks and drinks. The pollo (chicken) flavored chips are popular with the chicas.

By the way, not all ATMs are built equally here. I withdrew cash from Banco de Bogota ATM and was only getting an exchange rate of 2970 which I was unhappy about after the fact. Later that day, I made another withdrawal through Nova Scotia Bank ATM which gave me the more favored exchange rate of 3137. In any case, be cognizant that the exchange rate differs drastically from bank to bank.

That evening, we started our visit wondering around the clock tower and later on at Space and then Dolce. There were only a handful of chicas and we were not ready to commit ourselves to any girls yet. Given the big recommendation provided by the property manager about the Playe Club, we decided to check out the joint to see if it meets the hype. Unfortunately it did not.

Pley Club is a quite a distance away, a good 25 minutes taxi ride from the walled city. To me, it was a bigger version of the isis club, but more run down. EDM was played in the background while we were there and there was a raised platform with a dance pole, where at certain intervals, the chica would perform an uninspiring strip dance up there. The area was too dark for us to see clearly the girls who congregated around the bar area. The place was largely empty with only a few occupied tables. Then again, it was on a Sunday. Here are the details from what we have learned from the club.

The chicas would not approach you until you give them the signal to sit with you. Once they accompany you, you would be paying for their drinks and they get a cut from the sale of these drinks. You can do a short time with the chica there for 350 Mil for 35 minutes. Four hours long time will set you back 800 Mil. I think the bar fine is already included in this pricing structure. Anyway, many of the chicas there have many shared features, and that's big butts and big fake boobs. Unfortunately, those are not really my thing.

After a round of drink, we headed back to the walled city, and repeated our earlier routine of walking around the clock tower, then Dolce and then Space and then back to Dolce again. Those drinks that we ordered do add up fast. There were more chicas this time and the Venezuelans easily outnumbered the Colombians. Contrary to my preconception, the Venezuelan chicas were not as demanding as I thought they would. In contrast, the Colombian chicas, especially those from Medellin, came across for the lack of better word pushy and sharky. Those that are always together in pairs would try to push for a threesome service and their quoted price was always on the high side. Frankly, it was quite a turn off for me, and it reminded me of experiences that I read from past postings regarding their unsavory behaviors once they were brought back to the apartments.

I ended with up with another Venezuelan chica again that night, and my experience with them have been positive so far.

By the way, this posting is based purely on my personal observation, experience and encounter so far, which I want to share with other ISG readers. This is by no mean meant to offend anyone if it comes across as such.

Salutations,

I just got back from a 10-day trip to Cartagena. This marks my two year anniversary of visiting the city every three months for fucking purposes. This time around I got to try out a chiva (party bus), playa Linda (a solitary beach), and shared most of my time between two chicas and their friends. I got a cold from one chica so half way through I kept my partying and drinking to a minimum so as not to fuck too much with my immune system.

[B]A Tale of Two Chicas[/B]

Interesting times we live in. After landing, I went through my Whatsapp and responded to a Colombia chica I was banging the last time I was in town. She's very sweet. Typical, and I mean typical, Colombian from the coast: always smiling, easy going, down to fuck all the time, low maintenance, and boy does she clean up real good. If I send her home to get dressed for dinner she comes back looking like a slutty movie star. We ended up buying tickets to a chiva (party bus), and went twice out to the islands.

A couple of nights we had a "fight" and I sent her packing. The first one was totally her fault: she thought it was a good idea to take me to Elektra and parade me to the other chicas as if I was exclusive to her. I did not like that at all. So I took her back to my place and gave her a bit of a dressing down. The second "fight" I had with her was my fault. We had come back from Punta Arenas and I was beyond drunk. The only thing that kept me from sinking to the bottom of the ocean was my tout telling me not to smoke anymore ganja. The chica had come out with me and I had her friends join us later. It was a blast.

The second chica I was fucking was a Venezualan. This chica is built to fuck. Great ass. If you get her drunk she wants to fuck all night and gets upset if you run out of juice. She'd been there for six months and was heading back to Venezuela for a week. The downside is she's all business when sober. I once came really fast and she wanted more money for a second fuck. I was like, no I don't think so.

I was bare backing her like a bull, and she even offered anal. Unfortunately, I think six months of hooking was too much for her. She'd become hardened. Even suspicious: asking me the first time we went back to my apartment if I was alone there.

[B]Tu Muy Perro[/B]

Which brings me to the "interesting times" comment I made earlier. What the fuck is up with jealousy in Cartagena these days? The chicas all expected me to be some kind of novio to them. They'd act offended if I went to fuck another chica. On a couple of occasions the chicas were staring each other down over me. I completely did not like this at all. I am "muy perro" as they say or "very dog" but come on I don't owe anyone any exclusivity. Maybe I'm being too open about it but I don't see how that's avoidable.

My previous Venezuelan became very upset that I was fucking these other chicas. I tried to have her come out once but she was sending crazy jealous messages. Later she dropped me from facebook.

This stupid jealous shit needs to stop I tell you.

[B] Island adventures[/B]

I did check out Playa Linda this time around. It's a pretty empty beach with a single restaurant a few chairs and two of those bed cabana things. 40 k for travel to and from. A dude from the beach on Laguito hopped on with his buddy to be our servers. Everything cost more. Aguila was 10 k. Water was 10 k. Yeah water was the same cost as the beer. Food, drinks and transport all come out to 400 k for the both of us. I wanted to argue with the guy but a whole day at a solitary beach where we were almost completely alone, served exlusively for 400 k? That's not too bad.

The fish they made was most excellent. The tout came out with the raw fish in a big tray and had us pick. I got the chica a one hour massage from a masseuse over there for 50 k. I went for a swim. We ate. Snuggled in the cabana for the rest of the afternoon before heading back.

BTW, no cell phone signal on that beach. If it matters to you or your chicas then don't take them there. Also barely any music.

[B]La Dulce Vida[/B]

So apparently its now a restaurant during the day. Not sure when this change happened. At 9:30 PM they switch signs and become a hooker bar. It was fucking solid packed one night. Then 15 minutes later half the chicas left either to Space or Elektra.

All the chicas I spoke to were planning on leaving back home in the next two weeks. I have no idea what this means for chica population in December. They all expect to be back in January.

That's just 1. 5% of what I withdraw most commonly. I consider it acceptable, way more convenient that spending the time and hassle to get a special debit card from Charles Schwab (which is an American thing, BTW). Others may make a different balance of their own time vs. 3 USD per withdrawal.

I'm in the US, and when I used my US debit cards before, I usually got hit with 2 charges, from the local ATM and from my own bank. I remember I once withdrew money from Santander in Spain with my US Santander debit card and then found 2 charges totaling I think $8-9. Tried to contest it with my bank home, but got nowhere. They are different entities, operate independently, blah, blah, blah.

YippieKayay, 52 Ggekko2009 and TadaiMaybe.

Thanks so much for your back-to-back reports. Very enjoyable! Hope to make it back to Cartagena in February.

What's up fellow gents. Me and a buddy will be heading to Ctg this weekend. I am trying to get the details on the spot. Its a new spot I'm trying in el Luguito area. The Palmetto sunset building. Has anyone stayed there. If so are there any problems bringing chicas back. The host said up to 5 guest can be in the apartment kinda confused about that part. Here is what he sent me.

Hey, hope everything is OK, regarding your questions:

1. yes it is and is connected with Bocagrande.

2. yes the building has a visitor policy to use the 2 pools and is till 7 pm and for the apartment I think we can arrange if the number doesn't exceed the 5 persons permitted.

3. It is very easy to have a taxi and due the Hilton hotel is near it won't be a problem at any time.

Hope to have the pleasure to host you.

Regards,

If you have any details on this building please let me know I appreciate it.

[QUOTE=Xpartan;2254789] when I used my US debit cards before, I usually got hit with 2 charges, from the local ATM and from my own bank.[/QUOTE]Absolutely! Some local ATMs will apply that additional fee. In particular, ATMs that are not of main banks in airports or at hotels are at risk.

In USA, all ATMs I have found in main hotels apply such a charge. Also in Colombia, I remember that at least Bancolombia applies that additional fee.

My understanding is that there is nothing to do against that. The owner of the ATM is saying: do you want cash FROM ME? Pay this fee TO ME (plus what you have to pay to your bank as specified in your contract with your bank). We may negotiate a zero-fee debit card with our bank, but if the ATM's owner offers money with that additional fee, it's a take it or leave it.

However, if you too read what I have repeated more than once (just teasing), you would know that for most part of ISG members the hassle of getting a CS card is way heavier than the 3 USD fee per transaction.

As European, I can only imagine the ordeal of getting an US debit card. Even if I were residing in the USA, I would not opt to get a special CS card, besides that of my bank, just for saving the 15 USD that I may pay over 5-6 days in Cartagena (5 withdrawals?). Pennies compared to the overall expenditure, and however my time is more worth than 15 USD.

The important message we want to convey to be useful to new travellers is: use a [U]debit[/U] card to withdraw money from ATMs! Avoid money changers. We agree on that.

If you have any details on this building please let me know I appreciate it.[/QUOTE]Based on my experience with other Palmetto buildings (there are several in Bocagrande & El Laguito) but not this Sunset building you've referenced, you can have up to a certain number (5 or 6 depending on the number of bedrooms in the unit and how many people it is supposed to accommodate) of guests who are issued a 'wrist band' essentially allowing them any time access to the apt. It is assumed they reside with you. If you "register" any more than this permitted number of people and you incur a fee. These guests IDs are checked and they register them on the official list along with the principal renter / tenant's name. On the other hand, the chicas who visit you for a few hours are not officially registered. The front desk checks their IDs and then calls up to the unit and asks if they can be allowed upstairs. Thus far I have not seen building management / security object to the number of chicas who visit you and / or penalize / charge for them. My buddy and I had several chicas over a 3 day period and two additional registered girlfriends for whom we requested wrist bands. Warning: if someone is issued wrist bands they have un-announced access to the unit and can just take the elevator up; be careful of compromising situations where the GF comes and finds you shacked up with a chica.

[QUOTE=TadaiMaybe;2255030]Based on my experience with other Palmetto buildings (there are several in Bocagrande & El Laguito) but not this Sunset building you've referenced, you can have up to a certain number (5 or 6 depending on the number of bedrooms in the unit and how many people it is supposed to accommodate) of guests who are issued a 'wrist band' essentially allowing them any time access to the apt. It is assumed they reside with you. If you "register" any more than this permitted number of people and you incur a fee. These guests IDs are checked and they register them on the official list along with the principal renter / tenant's name. On the other hand, the chicas who visit you for a few hours are not officially registered. The front desk checks their IDs and then calls up to the unit and asks if they can be allowed upstairs. Thus far I have not seen building management / security object to the number of chicas who visit you and / or penalize / charge for them.

Warning: if someone is issued wrist bands they have un-announced access to the unit and can just take the elevator up; be careful of compromising situations where the GF comes and finds you shacked up with a chica.[/QUOTE]Some background on how this registration system works. It's computerized, comes with a finger print reader and webcam, and is used in other buildings as well in and around Cartagena. If you visit enough you probably bumped into this.

The registration system lets a fixed number of people into the apartment at any time. Every registered guest will occupy a slot indefinitely (even if they leave). If you are allowed 4 total, then you take up one slot, and you can have 3 visitors at any time. Visitors leaving will free up the slot they took. Registered guests [B]do not[/B]. These places will typically have curfews so visitors can come by between certain hours.

If you register anyone they take up a slot indefinitely until the booking ends. If you register a chica, in a 4 person apartment, then you can have only two additional visitors at any time. If you fuckup like I did when I registered 3 chicas across 3 nights then all four slots are taken up. The only way to free up the slots is to have the person who owns the apartment (or company) come by and recreate the booking by deleting the old one.

Not all buildings have this system but the newer ones are using it.

Fees vary. Some places will charge for registration, others will charge for visitors. Some security guards will try to fuck with you. The only way around this is to talk to the person and company to explain it to you and even then at 2 AM in the morning the security guard might want to get some money off you so it's not much help. That said, I frequent the same buildings and mostly figured out how to keep them honest.

The only way around all this bullshit is to use love hotels exclusively which isn't convenient.

Cartagena sucks for paid sex. Unless you're willing through the nose. I was quoted 250000 for an hour in a casa in a ghettoish part of the city. WTF? I can get top chicas in Medellin for less than that with the room included. Same in Bogota. WTF is wrong with Cartagena? Seriously.

The reason the prices are high is because it is a port City.

Better off going to the old city at night and enjoying the night life. Tons of chicas for 200 k or less.

The way how he framed it, "These Colombian chicas are so passionate that you would guarantee to fall in love. ".

Unfortunately, it did not really meet my expectation. Maybe one of the barrier could be the language since I have to converse with the chicas completely via translate app. I spent four consecutive nights picking up chicas from the walled city and the experience was mixed. Two okay nights with chicas from Venezuela and two lousy nights with those from Medellin. Luckily I had a much better session with a Colombian freelancer from Bogota that I contacted through Mileroticos for daytime romp. I enjoyed her service so much that I invited her back the next day. At least this trip was not a complete wash.

Anyway, CTG is without a doubt a more expensive place compared to Medellin and Bogota simply because there is a demand from foreign tourists who are willing to pay the price.

I don't have any local contacts and don't speak Spanish, and I never paid less than 150 K-200 K (some actually asked more, although I refused to pay more). That's not nothing. Of course, compared to Europe or the USA It might feel this way, but still many times more than a KFC meal.

Don't get me wrong, I loved Cartagena and going back this winter for (hopefully) cooler weather, but it isn't cheap, IMHO.

Daytime: The beach towards the end of Bocogrande. Girls ask for 200,000 per hour they are hot and unlike at night you can really see what the look like. Basically Venezuelans.

Old City. Clocktower girls are asking 300,000 per hour or 300 USD per night. Very good selection from all colors shapes and sizes. Great selection but expensive.

Also if you see a small Petit brown / black young pretty Venzeulan named Ivette do yourself a favor and run. If not you will understand later.

More room for negotiation on the whole night but not on the hourly. It's like the union is very organized.

At $300 a night I don't see the value. Spoke with some locals and they said the price is so high because so many foreigners visit.

I have to admit it's a great selection but when you spend a lot and get a bad one you will be pissed. When you get ripped off you will wonder if Cartegena is a trap. Maybe the Venzeulan girls are hustlers or maybe Ivette is the worse choice you can make. She is very friendly on the street.

[QUOTE=HBoy54;2260749]At lawyer?[/QUOTE]Spanish has 2 verbs that mean "to be": Ser and Estar.

Ser. Soy, eres, es, somos, son. Is used for things considered permanent. Examples:

Eres alto. You are tall.

Son maestros. They are teachers.

Soy casado. I am married (I know, but the Catholics consider marriage a permanent thing).

De donde eres? - where are you from?

Estar. Estoy, estás, está, estamos, estan. Is used for things that are transient, like physical or emotional states or locations. Examples:

Ella está triste. She is sad.

Estoy cansado. I am tired.

Estamos borrachos. We are drunk.

Donde estás? - where are you?

Professions all use ser, "estás abogada?" is grammatically incorrect.

However, most Colombians, especially ones that are hoping to get paid to bump uglies with you, aren't going to correct your grammar.

If you're clever and you find a girl who will correct your grammar, you can misuse these verbs to your advantage.

"Eres traviesa" - you are naughty.

"No. Estoy traviesa" - no. I am naughty.

"Sí. Estás traviesa" - yes, you are naughty.

That exchange resulted in a waitress grabbing my crotch.

[QUOTE=ClamSlammer;2261275]Exactly, and if you're the one who is demanding that others learn Spanish it makes you sound like a double idiot.[/QUOTE]YK is making a good suggestion. Is that the same as "demand"?

I don't know Spanish much but I understand "Tu estas abogada". I know you do too. I also understand what you talked about. I put "Tu estas abogada" into two different online translators and both return "You're a lawyer".

In my opinion, being able to suggest someone to learn Spanish has nothing to do with one's Spanish level. I am not a native English speaker and I made grammar mistakes frequently. Based on the same logic, I can't recommend someone to learn English either.

[QUOTE=JjBee62;2261230]Soy casado. I am married (I know, but the Catholics consider marriage a permanent thing).[/QUOTE]Actually, even Catholics consider marriage a temporary state. To say you are married you would say "estoy casado" not "soy casado."

In all honesty, Cartagena is a world-class tourist city with decent prices and good infrastructure, and it's well-worth visiting even with its uninspiring beaches and relentless touts. I must say the heat really got to me, though.

I do probably have a vocabulary of a 3-year old, which means I can make them understand what I want, but not make them laugh.

The first I tried to learn was Portuguese, which subsequently fucked up whatever Spanish I learned later. Still mixing both languages.

"Tu estas abogada" or "tu eres abogada" or "tu abogada" or "que? Estamos al abogado!" or "entonces tu eres mi abogada" are all perfectly fine ways of telling a chica she's asking for too much. It usually gets them to laugh. You don't need to speak some noble version of Castillian to make yourself understood there. It's pretty snobbish to think so.

I have visited the other cities in Colombia and paid 30k at Yakuza when its rooms were just two walls and a tarp at the entrance. I also walked behind the museum in centro Medellin where there's a pretty big hooker spot. Once the novelty wore off I realized I was flying all the way out to these places and visiting some of the more run down parts of town. What's the point? It's not much of a vacation doing it that way for me. That's why I prefer Cartagena now.

I'm here right now and I have three Venezuelan chicas via Tinder negotiate 100 k for an hour. I don't think my hotel going to let them in though because they don't have a seeédula. Só I'm looking at the love motels.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2264717]If they don't have ID be careful.

Illegal immigrants are not happy to bring with them the original passport. However, yes one must be extra careful, for example because if one takes the girl at home, she steals something and leaves, she disappears like a ghost.

By the way, do not overvalue the fact that a girl has a cedula. In Colombia, a fake cedula can be purchased for little money (100k I was told by a girl in CTG years ago). Government agents can recognize if a cedula is fake, or authentic but not belonging to the person who carries it, but you or the hotel doorman surely not.

Love motels do not expect ID of people, thanks God. Finally a place respecting the privacy of people seeking some hours away from the world.

They did not. Both the girls I went with where from Venezuela. They told me they come here for a month or so to make money and go home. One of the girls was leaving tonight. And the other is leaving tommorow. And they have passports so you can see there ages if you need to.

No need to ask a girl ¿Usted es abogada? But I always ask a girl all pertinent details that may show up on her ID. Then when I see it, I can verify if it belongs to her or not, as usually girls fail to match their story and their fake ID or borrowed ID. Helped me many times.

I'm planning my first trip down and I don't speak any Spanish. Any tips / resources on quickest way to learn some Spanish? Or key Spanish phrases to know?

Hi all!

I'm planning a trip for myself and a couple friends to Cartagena in May. I considered Panama City and Jaco as well and decided on Cartagena for a few reasons. I'm new to the board, and I see it's good manners to contribute before asking questions so, below is the info I've gathered from researching the board. If any of the regulars on here have anything to add or correct, I'd appreciate it!

Jaco.

-Beachfront; Not white sand like the Caribbean but decent beach; better than Cartagena's beach which is small to nonexistent near the city.

-Girls cost a bit more than in Cartagena ($100 to $150 for an hour or two in Jaco vs 150 to 200 k COP in Cartagena) and quality is lower vs Cartagena.

-Housing cost is relatively low and quality can be very high end if you want to pay for it; Housing is all low-rise; No high end high rise condos like in Cartagena and Panama City.

-Great activities for daytime like ATV and ziplining.

Panama City.

-Waterfront but beaches are 1.5 hours away.

-Girls cost 2 to 3 times Jaco and Cartagena; Girls are imported mostly from Colombia, Costa Rica, Venezuela.

-Infrastructure is much better than Jaco and a bit better than Cartagena; City is the cleanest and developed vs Jaco and Cartagena.

-Higher end nightlife and bar scene.

-Housing is the most expensive vs Cartagena and Jaco; Housing is pretty much all high rise.

Cartagena.

-Beachfront but all high rises or casas in the city center that mostly don't have water views; If you want a modern beachfront mansion, your choices are much less and much further away from city center vs Jaco.

-Boats can be chartered for day parties to Cholon Island.

I looked into hiring a fixer to arrange for a private pool party and a private boat party, but it seems that they charge at least double what it would cost of just doing it yourself? For example, VIP in Panama for a rooftop pool party on top of a fancy hotel is charging $1100 which includes a DJ for 3 hours, food and open bar for 3 hours plus $150 per girl for 3 hours plus whatever you negotiate with girls for extra services. Very pricey it seems.

So the current plan is to book a casa in Getsemani or Bocagrande on Airbnb that's girl friendly and then put together our own pool party and boat party.

For the boat party, the plan is to pipeline girls through mileroticos and photosprepagos starting a week or two prior to arrival, and then also hitting up the clocktower the first couple of nights to collect lots of numbers, and then negotiate over text and pray they show up at 9 am at the marina.

For the boat itself the plan is to hire either Yacht Charter Cartagena Boats4 you, Cartagena Catamaran, or This is Cartagena as they all have good google reviews.

Any thoughts on the above would be much appreciated! I'm planning this whole trip so I just want to make sure my friends have a good time as we don't get to travel together that often.

Questions:

-As mentioned above we are planning to go early May, which I see is right out of peak season. Will there still be a decent amount of girls still there to recruit you think?

-If mileroticos and photosprepagos falls through, does anyone have some whatsapp numbers for a good escort service that's reliable? Thanks!

-I asked a couple of Airbnb hosts about guests, and they said it's fine. Is it as easy as that? Airbnb hosts are pretty reliable in communicating rules? One of the airbnbs is in the condo at the Hotel Sonesta and the owner claims we won't have problems getting girls up. Can anyone confirm?

[/QUOTE]It's not the best time. It's a month after easter. I went in June and it was so-so (not bad). You can look at my reports. February, September and November have all been fine months. If you can push it back to at least June. I don't have a crystal ball to know the future but I've been there in April a few weeks after Easter and it was completely dead in the old city. Even the hooker bars weren't stocked up with much liquor.

[/QUOTE]This is up to you. The main attraction of Cartagena is the night life after 10 pm. The old city has parts which turn into open air brothels late at night. It's why I go because I can walk between a few places and see all the action up front. You literally walk around and have beautiful women hit on you all night. Why use escort ads?

Yes, some buildings have extended curfews for visitors. Others are very strict because they don't want that shit.

EDIT:

To save you some time searching here are my reports from November, September, and June. I won't go as far back as last April because like I said it was pretty dead after Easter.

There are many other good reports from fellow posters here which also give you an idea of their experience. This thread is less active with discussion so its easy to find their reports. Keep in mind, I speak Spanish and have been going there every 3 months solid for the last several years. I tend to hit the ground running. Expect a bit of a learning curve at first. Cartagena is worth it if you like to party!

No. Hosts might be fine with it, but not the building management. I read Airbnb reviews about hosts saying yes and buildings saying no. I don't know how to resolve this issue without being there and doing the leg work. Some members suggested contacting the building managers in addition to hosts, but I don't know how that can be practically arranged.

I stayed at one of Juan's apartments, which was perfectly fine, but I'd like to find something more upscale for my upcoming travel. Some Airbnbs expressly state they allow visitors until 10 PM, but I've never seen anything without conditions. That sucks because I agree with YippieKayay that plucking girls from the main square is your best shot at WYSIWYG.

I'll be in Cartagena with some friends the weekend after Easter. I read that it may be slow around then for Chicas, would it already have gone dead by then? Discovered el Centro and success with a few apps while there last time. If anyone is there around then let me know! Also open to any tips you all have as I was there last year, but it was the weekend before Easter instead.

RT.

Where to stay.

I made the mistake of trying to use AirBnB ahead of time. Then, less than 24 hrs before date, the host wrote asking for the name and info of my guest?! But I was clear. Even used the word 'prepago' and was told all would be ok. I cancelled because this crap was making me nervous. Still was charged some money bc cancelled less than 24 hrs. So I arrived without a reservation, but went to Laguito and tried the bldgs. I had stayed before. Sure enough Mery had a place at Mirador (200 mil pesos / nt.) which worked out fine. No chica fees, but the night desk guy gave a hard time each time I brought a Venezuelan back saying she needed a passport. Had to give him some cash to let her through without passport.

Chicas.

I had a regular so first day I called her up and she showed with some herb. Next day was a Monday, so I tried out the clock tower area. At 10 pm there was nothing. Still lots of tourists. In fact, I noticed lots of tourists gawking at what few hookers were standing out there, and were even taking pics of the hookers. That kind of crap will prevent some chicas from showing up I'm sure bc of all the tourist gawkers.

Walked over to Elektra at 11 pm. Dead. Not a single chica. I only stayed there till 11:30 bc they didn't have change for my 50 mill note. Finished my beer & sat there hoping somebody else would please buy a beer so I could get my change and leave.

Went back to tower plaza. Much better. Found the chica in the attached pics for 150 k.

They will agree with you just so you can book and they can get your money. Hoping you won't cancel or have any other options. I usually book months ahead time but I do a lot of research. And ask a ton of questions. I also read the reviews.

[/QUOTE]This is true. For non Colombians they either need a passport with a stamp that is within the last 60 days (or 90?) or if she has residency her residency card. I've been told its the law.

Colombians just need a cedula or any equivalent piece of ID. Did you try La Dulce Vida that night when Elektras was dead?

I always looked at that rule as them making money off of it. Some of them have passports. But most don't. My last trip. I took one who assured me she had a passport. Got to the front desk. No passport and she had a fake cedula LOL needless to stay it was my last night and I just wanted to fuck. But I had to give him money.

I mean you'll get action but you'll probably end up having to go to Isis to get any real action. Everything else will be dead.

Well seeing how I like Cartagena so much, I've decided to stop by again the first week of April. If any fellow mongers are around would be good to meet up for a few beers. I intend on doing boat trips as well and try to get a few girls along for the day. If there anyone interested, feel free to give me a shout.

If anyone has a good apartment recommendation or airbnb please PM to me directly. I used to stay in Estellar Hotel, nice hotel and pool, no hassle bringing girls, but last trip they never let anyone from Venezuela because they needed Colombian ID from girls, needless to stay I won't stay there again.

Looking for new and modern apartment (not the old familiar buildings in Lagito).

Thanks in advance.

You might try La Gran Via in Bocagrande. I already confirmed they are guest friendly while I was down there, but I was staying in Laguito.

Since allowing Venezuelans in without a passport is illegal and the guard could technically get in trouble, no point in asking them ahead of time "can I bring in Venezuelans without passports". Have to take a chance, since there are so few guest friendly places down there.

[QUOTE=SeanEZ;2279585]

Many Venezuelans now have residency as well.

They need one of two items:

* Passport with stamp that is more recent than six months (or 90 days I forget).

* Residency card that acts as their cedula (ID).

No buildings or hotels will register them without this. It's to do with tourism laws.

On airbnb there are hosts that clearly tell you you can bring back visitors and which hours. Go with them. Everyone else assume they aren't catering to what you want.

I arrived on a Friday and left on a Monday morning.

I stayed in one of Juan's apartments in El Laguito. Great view from the balcony if you want to watch sunsets or the ocean. No beach as the ocean washes right up to the building almost. Safe and secure. Each bedroom door had a lock with a key which made it very easy to chica proof when you can lock all your stuff in one room and hook up with chicas in the other. A little dated, but a great deal at $75 per night. Chica friendly with no hassles with Colombians or Venezuelans. Though chica friendly there are families living hear and other vacationers. 25 K peso taxi from the airport. 10 K peso taxi to the Clock Tower. Small restaurants are close by and cheap. 10 minute walk to the busy public beach or main tourist drag.

Friday night I was lazy and picked up a Venezuelan street walker almost across the street from my apartment. I was kind of disappointed in her appearance once she got naked, but she was only 150 K peso and she was very nice. From my experience with 2 Venezuelans and 2 Colombians, if you want GFE then get a Venezuelan. More kissing and they want more of a romantic feeling. I did see a few other street walkers that were ok walking around in El Laquito, but they were not the stunners that you hear about in Colombia. One girl on the main drag started following me and quoting really low prices to go hookup on the beach. I considered this a setup to get robbed or ripped off somehow. She was overly persistent and was grabbing my arm as I kept walking away.

Saturday night I went to the Clock Tower and loved the open air brothel that everyone says happens after 10:00 PM. Whatever you want is available, but a lot of young skinny girls. Some I would not feel comfortable approaching as I would question if they were really over 18. I had two different Colombians 20 and 22 years old. They wanted 200 K and 250 K. Neither was a clock watcher. Both wanted to hang out in my apartment on the balcony and drink a couple of beers before getting down to business. Not GFE, but not totally mechanical. Much friendlier and better customer service than my experiences in Sosua, DR.

Sunday night I went with one curvy girl from Venezuela. 200 K. Great conversation. She was what you read about in the news about educated girls from Venezuela having to go to Colombia to work as prostitutes in order to support her family back home. It was easy to see that she was more intelligent and classier than the other girls that I met. Wanted to talk, no rush, and wanted to be romantic. Total GFE.

Every girl I was with I feel like I had to kick out when we were done. Totally different from my experiences in The DR or Costa Rica. Chicas in Colombia were always friendlier, classier, and better customer service. Dominicans may fuck a little better, but they always try to tell you that you previously agreed to a higher price and I would never turn my back on one.

Also, when you are at the beach and massage ladies start touch you they will not stop when you say "no gracias. " You have to take their hand and move it off of you and say "NO" for them to go away. I did get a foot massage and then the chick stuck a hand up each side of my shorts and asked if I wanted a happy ending. This was under one of the umbrellas with other people around. I refused and couldn't believe how blatant this was.

The heat was oppressive in the late morning. I wouldn't go out until after 1 or 2. The beach is better in Sosua. The food is better and cheaper in Cartagena. I like the small town look of Sosua. Cartagena is a highly developed area with many large apartment buildings. I like Colombian people more in general. I felt safer with them. I will go to Medellin next weekend of what I believe is better price and better looking chicas than Cartagena.

I didn't install Whatsapp on my phone before I went there. I couldn't receive text messages while there so I couldn't complete the installation. Therefore, I couldn't keep in contact with any chicas to schedule daytime action. Big mistake. I will straighten this out before I go to Medellin. All 4 chicas I was with wanted my number. I did not want them on my Facebook page as I thought that could become a setup for blackmail.

[QUOTE=GringoSlim;2283311]

[/QUOTE]Yes. You need to get to any of the islands to get nicer beaches since Cartagena has that river coming out and spilling into its beaches. You can pay 20-30 k at Laguito to get a taxi over to Puntas Arenas. If you go anywhere else I recommend walking into any of the tourist stores who sell tickets for ventures to Playa Blanca, or Rosario Islands. If you have money to burn you can spend about $500 USD to rent a private cruiser and take it to Cholon where its party party party.

Have a fun time in Medellin!

I was there in October 2018 and each night spent a few hours observing and talking to the chicas at the clock tower, yes many venies and some cuties at that, and then after midnight or so they all started doing the rounds in the clubs, actually ended up one night with a venie that I saw earlier that that night at the clock tower.

Then headed over to Barranquilla then over to Santa Marta where I landed a local chica born and raised in Santa Marta as we all know that many Colombian chicas come from Bogota and Medellin and Cali to Cart to make pesos, so I wanted to taste the local cuisine (my Santa Marta chica) jajaja.

The Tall Man.

The last two times I visited Club Pley it was shut down. Not a soul in sight. This used to be my favorite place to visit in Cartagena outside of the Old City. Has it officially shut down?

The Clock Tower sounds busier than when I was there, that is good to know! I always got better prices there than the club. Met a girl there who had the finest breasts I have ever encountered.

And also want to say that judging from the photos that was a well spent 150 k. I have lloked at some AirBnB places, in hopes of finding one with a private entrance so I would not need to deal with a doorman, I only saw one so far and it was a house, very pricey $300 a night.

[QUOTE=Buster5588;2272742]Hi all!

I'm planning a trip for myself and a couple friends to Cartagena in May. ...[/QUOTE]This is a great first post, I suggest you get paid membership and able to communicate with other members via private messaging. I'd be up to split the boat party cost, etc.

For those (including myself) asking about reliable Airbnb or Hotels, which can be hit or miss, last time I stayed in Estellar which is a great hotel and they did all kinds of upgrades for me, however they would not let any girl from Venezuella in on account of some visa stamps or other immigration rules they have, they would not even let my MALE promoter friend to have a drink in the pool, so it's certainly not worth the 100 GBP I paid per night.

Don't despare: in the middle of Bocagrande there are hourly or overnight cheap accommodations that only exit to bring girls to, can't remember the cost but was very cheap. I know it's not the best option but it is an option when all else fails.

She gave GFE without asking for it or negotiating for it. I think I had a good connection with her and that may have been part of it. The other part of it is that she was not a veteran. That is how they know to fuck. Oddly enough after I told her that I was from the USA, she thanked me for the aid that we were sending to her country which she thought that her president wouldn't allow into the country. When I arrived back home googled it that is exactly what happened.

The other Veny was just walking around in El Laguito. I didn't ask for or try to negotiate. She just gave it.

I am here in Boca till the 22nd if anyone is around I'll be at Playa Hollywood or wherever.

I will be staying in Cartagena for the next week until the 20th. I am looking for recommendations. I am aware of the places like bars and the street. More interested in places like casas that are still active in the area. Also if anyone wants to meet up.

Hello everyone,

We are a group of 6 friends planning a bachelors trip to Cartagena from March 8-13. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions or contacts for accommodations (that allow guests) and any contacts that we could use. Boat trip would be awesome as well. Thanks again.

[QUOTE=Kafka;2286636]I am here in Boca till the 22nd if anyone is around I'll be at Playa Hollywood or wherever.[/QUOTE]I'm arriving on 19th. I will pm you.

Hi all,

I'm excited for my first trip to Cartagena! Going with friends toward the end of March.

This thread is such an incredible wealth of information. A huge and sincere thank you to all those who have contributed! I've read about 15 pages so far, and gleaned a lot of useful information.

I was hoping that someone with experience on the Tinder scene there could comment on it? Tips, strategies, warnings, etc. ?

Been considering upgrading to Tinder Gold so I can switch my location to Cartagena and develop a pipeline well before arrival. Seems it could a better route than the escort sites, as there's a chance of also developing contacts with "real" locals who may bang me for free. (I'm in my mid 30's, fit, tall, of a somewhat exotic ethnic mix, and not terrible looking.).

However, I have no idea what the Tinder scene is like there.

Here in the US, I much prefer Bumble because the girls are generally hotter, and Tinder is absolutely overrun with fake profiles. Tinder also has a certain stigma among "classy" girls who view it sleazy as a hookup app (eye roll). However, I searched the forum for "bumble Cartagena" with no results. If anyone is there right now, Bumble may be worth checking out.

Another question regards the trade off between convenience and safety.

Someone posted that renting a building with a doorman will resolve most safety concerns involved in bringing the girl back to your place. However, I also understand that sometimes getting the girls in can be a huge hassle.

The AirBnb penthouses look both safe and amazing, but I also really like the idea of renting a private home where no one will bother us. However, it seems that could really increase our exposure us to theft or worse, especially if you have multiple guys bringing multiple girls back over the course of the trip.

Thanks so much for any comments or insights.

[/QUOTE]I used Tinder 2 years ago in Cartagena. I did upgrade to Gold and tried to pre-arrange. Most chicas weren't interested. It's a complete waste of their time until you are there. I only managed in chatting with one chica on Tinder and she wanted 300 k. I later did meet her at Playa Hollywood during the day just by accident and banged her for 150 k. I can't think of any good reason to find chicas online in Cartagena unless you're only there for a day or two and won't be out late at night. Then maybe that makes sense.

If you're going during a good time there are plenty of chicas to pick from with zero issues. There's too much choice especially at night in the old city. I literally have to ration my sperm. I've been surrounded by beautiful women in the old city with them yelling "Tu conmigo amor! Tu conmigo amor!" Most chicas only get a customer once or twice a week.

I dunno what end of March is like but I'm heading down this coming weekend and it's GREAT in February. It's also great in September and November.

Here's what you do your first night (unless it's a Sunday or Monday). Go to the clock tower around 11 pm and look around. If you see something you like smile at her if she smiles back walk up and have a chat. Get her number and her price expectation and send her a message on whatsapp so she remembers you. Keep doing this all night as you go to LDV and Elektra. Stop by Isis for a drink but keep in mind its the more expensive option. Then when you're ready take one home. You also should have half a dozen phone numbers to whatsapp during the day.

If you go to playa Holywood during the day the chicas will come generally be around and will approach you. They'll wink at you and try to chat with you. Usually this happens in the afternoon. More numbers to get or just take her straight back to your place and fuck her.

I come back from Cartagena exhausted from all the fucking. Half my body hurts. Muscles I didn't even know I had. I never use tinder.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info!

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2288607]I used Tinder 2 years ago in Cartagena. I did upgrade to Gold and tried to pre-arrange. Most chicas weren't interested. It's a complete waste of their time until you are there. I only managed in chatting with one chica on Tinder and she wanted 300 k. I later did meet her at Playa Hollywood during the day just by accident and banged her for 150 k. I can't think of any good reason to find chicas online in Cartagena unless you're only there for a day or two and won't be out late at night. Then maybe that makes sense.

If you're going during a good time there are plenty of chicas to pick from with zero issues. There's too much choice especially at night in the old city.[/QUOTE]We're only staying 3 nights this time. Thanks to these reports, I'm confident it will be ridiculously easy to find hot chicas at night, but was more worried about ensuring plenty of options during the day.

May still see what both Tinder and Bumble look like a few days before arrival. You can hide your distance, so I may tell them I'm already in town and lining up appointments! LOL If I have any luck with that, I'll post some pics and details.

I was trying to send a private message but I don't have premium. I just saw that I can't be a member online. If anyone outside the US is willing to front me for my membership I could paypal ASAP.

Where do I get in line?

You can ask them to send you their latest photos before deciding if you want them to come over. One tactic that I had used was to get the girl to send me her selfie with her right or left index finger showing the number 1 sign. That way, I know what I am getting in terms of looks.

Never seen so many gringos, dudes, families, tourists, from all over in Cartagena as ever before. Not too many girls either, many dog-like types centered around the clock square. Maybe best ones left for Barranquilla festival. Club Electra has been closed with "for rent" sign on it, La Dolce Vita and Space are packed wall to wall. I don't know if I like the change and where things are headed, even from last year.

Recently finished my 3rd trip in Cartagena. I'm always amazed at the magic of the city. It's truly enchanted. This time. All of the action seemed to be relegated to watch tower, LDV & Space. And there were many 9's in that bunch, top-level talent throughout the night. However, I used to love hitting up Club Pley on my first trip. And the last two times I've been in Cartagena it's been closed. Are they only open on selective nights? Weekends? I went on a Sunday and Monday and it was dead. Overall, I enjoyed the city but prefer Medellin for the variety. I've heard Panama City is just as good if not better for mongering than Cartagena. May have to give that a try.

What the fuck is going on? Did I just come back from bizarro world? It felt like the upside down over there.

[B]Mucho Chorizo[/B]

The number of young North American dudes in Cartagena was at a breaking point. I'm talking guys carrying big bluetooth speakers and blasting away their music as they walk around in groups. All kinds really. Dudes in their early twenties with glasses and pimples, gold chain wearing mofos, and 40 something year olds that bought a new dress shirt and a nose-job recently. La Dulca Vida had more guys in it than chicas. I couldn't leave fast enough. Clocktower plaza wasn't much better.

I sometimes shoot the shit with some of the touts in the plaza. When I told one of the street touts "Que pasa? Son muchos chorizos en estas dias, amigo! Demasiado!" he started to laugh. "Muchos chicos. Si hermano. ".

I let these guys take me to places like Isis so they can get their commission. I usually make a joke to the doorman: "Que es 'Strip Club?' Eso mi primera vez. " Never fails to make him smile.

[B] Elektra is closed [/B]

The tout explained to me that Elektra is gone but there are two new clubs opening soon on the same street as LDV. The chicas I talked to didn't seem to know about any places opening up. I got different responses on why Elektra is gone. Some said the owners ran out of money and some other say it was the cops. Who knows.

[B]Playa Hollywood [/B]

The famous playa hollywood didn't fair much better. I heard it got raided recently and the cops took away some of the hookers. Consequently there were few chicas in the afternoon. Again, take that bit of news with a grain of salt.

[B]Making the best of it[/B]

I've been going to Cartagena every 3 months for 3 years now. I've mostly come to know what to expect and this time it surprised me. This would have been a perfect time to wife up but I couldn't really settle on a wife. I banged the Colombiana from Barranquilla from my last visit for a couple of days then played Senior Jugo with the Venezuelana I was banging last time as well. I creampied both of them like a maniac. The Colombiana got SUPER pissed when she saw me with the Venezuelana and vice versa. Like one or the other would constantly try to do video chat with me on Whatsapp. Tranquila!

(All chicas were paid a standard 400 k a day for wife services.).

I had enough so I called my go-to tout and told him I needed "un culo grande. ". he responded: "si hermano. Yo tengo un culo para te. " (Yes bro, I have an ass for you).

[B]Enter the Tantra[/B]

She lives in Bello, Medellin. I told her of course she did (claro que si mami) as I licked my lips. The tout couldn't help but laugh at the look in my eyes as took in the view. She's a red-head with a big ass. Only she dies her hair blonde for some reason. After sweet talking her and sharing some drinks I explained I couldn't live with myself if I used a condom. She REALLY didn't like the idea of bareback. In fact at first I called off the whole thing and gave her 50 k for her time. As an aside I made 9 million pesos in the casino my first night so I was flush this time. The next day I messaged her and begged her forgiveness. She said she changed her mind and would let me cum inside of her.

We went out to drink and party in centro at one of the terraces. We had Daiquiris. I explained to her that Ernesto Hemingwayo loved Daiquiris. There's even a Daiquiri bar in his honor in Havana. By the third drink she was sticking her tongue in my mouth, and I was feeling up that wonderful big pale ass. We ended up buying pot later and by the end of the night she was doggy on the edge of the bed, ass spread, feet in a triangle, her phone buzzing some House music right on her knee and vibrating up to my skull. I was high out of my god damn mind and it felt great fucking that endless ass.

It was tantric. Her moaning. In my third eye I saw a black background with a silhouette of a figure in white. The figure would point north, east, south, west and with each rythmic motion I would push in and out of her pussy. I kept hearing the mantra: "PUERCO PUERCO PUERCO" OVER and OVER in my head as I went with the motion. When I came the figure turned into a giant fountain and I gave her every last drop in that wonderful red flower of hers.

I have seen the top of the mountain, brothers, and it was good.

[B]Cleaning up[/B]

I had a couple of nights left. I spent what time I could with my girl from Bello. I eventually ended up with an old hookup of mine. We spent my final night fucking, smoking weed, and talking about the hooking scene in Cartagena. I thought she was full of shit so I'll spare you the details.

I'm not doing end of February again. I'll try mid February. I think the whole March break thing brings out too many young guns.

I agree with everything you said. Only difference for me was the one day I spent at the beach with Tony turned out to meet a lot of good looking talent that he brought over. They all wanted 250 K for an hour, but there was one that was a very nice Morena who asked for 200 K. I took here, and for a small tip she gave me the BBBJ that is so important for me. As far as the beach the water seemed a little better than the last time I was there. Also the water was warm. With all the new Gringo's in CTG it still is ok with me. Of course your money belt has to be full when you go there as prices are much higher than MDE.

I regularly pay, here in Medellin between 80 to 150 mil for multiple hours with full GFE for really sexy and passionate paisas who rock my world. Last night I had a regular of mine over for drinks, smoke some pot and then passionate love that was off the charts.

I was in cartagena last year for mongering, hit all the clubs, spent much time each night around the clock tower and did have a fun time but cartagena provides absolutely no motivation for me wanting to visit again. So my visit last year to cartagena is "One and done" as there are so many other places, even aside from Medellin, in Colombia where my heard earned dollars goes along way.

Returning to Cartagena next month, last visit was 2017, staying at Charleston and Hilton Hotels. I don't see too much point in staying near the beach this time and want to stay in Centro. I've been thinking about staying at the Sofitel but heard that they do not allow visitors which means I cannot bring girls back to the hotel, can anyone confirm? I realize that at hotels like the Hilton there is usually a fee which I don't mind paying, I just don't want to be at a place where I cannot have visitors. I generally like to party with girls in hotel room. Hope someone can help.

We all have different size wallets. Every time I go I always pay 150 during the day and 200 k at night. Different strokes for other cats. CTG they always demand more it's the most expensive city. And of course you are paying less with an established network of chicas. The more you are there the better your Spanish skills are the better you can haggle. I'm not going to haggle over 50 k if I want a Chicago I get her. 200 k is my limit. I've even paid 150 k all night and got a meal cooked to LOL. But she's a regular.

Thanks. So in Centro, guests are just not generally allowed if they have 'ID" and you pay an extra free like at the Hilton? I've done it at Charleston in Centro once and everything was fine. I do prefer the hotels rather than condos as this is a vacation for me, the girls really just are an extra. If I book for two and it's just me then hopefully they have no issue.

But can anyone confirm that some hotels just have a no guests policy? I read a review on Tripadvisor of the Sofitel and they said prostitution was evident at the hotel so not too sure what to think!

Now you see a wonderful girl come out of the water. She has a sexy swimsuit on. Turns out she is one of Tony's girl also. So you talk to her, and she will go for 200 K. You are going to take her, but wait a minute you remember a guy named The Tall Man from ISG said you would be really, really stupid if you spent that much for a girl in CTG. Now so you won't be considered stupid you pass on the girl.

Sometimes it is talked about on ISG how a lot of people don't do many trip reports. Gee I can't imagine why. Maybe taking the time to write a report, and then being called stupid might have something to do with it.

We would like to inform you that we have very specific rules regarding accompany guests, this one has to be registered at the reservation or at the check-in time; otherwise the person will be denied access, due to one of our outmost priorities to preserve the privacy and security of all our guests. Please do not feel it was a personal restriction.

As you may know, Cartagena is a very touristic and visited city and because of that our security personnel are in charge of protecting our guests and identifying every visitor who wish to go beyond the colonial areas of the hotel. To keep control of visitors walking around the property, they guide each guest to the front desk in order to be registered. I assure you that our staff is very well trained in service and security standards.

We appreciate your understanding and we hope to have the pleasure to have you again in the magical Cartagena.

Almost all the apartments and hotels in Centro, frown upon or ban guests.

Another centro option is VRBO. Search for 1 and 2 br apartments and then do the work to contact about the guest policy.

Problems that have been reported in past is that VRBO renter response will say guest no problem and then you get a problem when you try to bring in a guest.

That is why Juan is so popular, his apartments and the buildings never give a hassle to guests about bringing in friends.

If you stay in Centro, you lower your chances of finding the one that you can't get rid of and increase your chances that she wants to hurry and get back to the tower.

Many times, once we get them back to the beach, they want to stay the night and go to beach the next day, without extra charges besides the food and beer to keep them energized and lubricated.

[QUOTE=Kelso1;2295291]Lets see, your on the beach in CTG. You are horny. The girls are controlled by Tony. Any deal that is made Tony will get a piece of the pie. So all of the girls want 250 K. Now you see a wonderful girl come out of the water. She has a sexy swimsuit on. Turns out she is one of Tony's girl also. So you talk to her, and she will go for 200 K. You are going to take her, but wait a minute you remember a guy named The Tall Man from ISG said you would be really, really stupid if you spent that much for a girl in CTG. Now so you won't be considered stupid you pass on the girl.

Sometimes it is talked about on ISG how a lot of people don't do many trip reports. Gee I can't imagine why. Maybe taking the time to write a report, and then being called stupid might have something to do with it.[/QUOTE]I agree.

There are ways to relate your experiences without calling people stupid. The point should be to provide information and share your personal experience about your trips, to help bring perspective, suggestions and ideas to the fellow traveler.

Too many people write with an ego and authority that is unwarranted, unearned and down right delusional.

The grandiose claims never cease to amaze me although it is entertaining. I always pay 50 K for the night, they cook me dinner and after the ***** changes the oil in my car, I give her a 10 K tip and send her on the way since I only rent that pussy because I'm a boss monger. Jeez, get a grip.

What one pays along with the length and quality of services has more to do with what you look like, dress like, smell like and your attitude both towards her but also towards yourself.

Where one prefers to go, Medellin vs Cartegena, has everything to do with budget and personal preference. Myself, I prefer the smell of the ocean to the smell of the garbage, so I go to Cartegena.

You do you and never let anyone tell you different.

I think Carnival was the end of Feb first few days of March. Barranquilla has the 2nd biggest Carnival behind Rio. This might have been a reason so may kids where there?

If someone is happy to pay it, I'm happy for everyone.

I'm in my fifties, I'm overweight, and I'm balding. I pay $800 dollars to fly to Cartagena, I Pay $700 for the week of the apartment. If I pay equivalent to $ 60 dollars for an hour and a half with a beautiful young chica with a rocking body there is nothing stupid about it. I like to get as much quality for my money as the next guy, but I'm not necessarily going to because some of those girls do not want two hundred and ninety pounds of old man on top of them. I've experienced this in Colombia as well as Thailand where some women tell me honestly that they would up their price for me because of my weight. I don't blame them.

As per my last report TOO MANY DUDES and not many chicas. If anyone goes over the next couple of months [B]please post a report[/B] on the situation there.

I'll probably be back in the summer but if I think its going to be like last time I'll stop going.

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2295573]Last year I asked as many girls and taxi drivers about guest policies in Boca and El Laguito and the response was always the same, almost all the buildings at the beach allow guests, some with restrictions on time allowed and overnights. Almost all the apartments and hotels in Centro, frown upon or ban guests.

Another centro option is VRBO. Search for 1 and 2 br apartments and then do the work to contact about the guest policy.

Problems that have been reported in past is that VRBO renter response will say guest no problem and then you get a problem when you try to bring in a guest.

That is why Juan is so popular, his apartments and the buildings never give a hassle to guests about bringing in friends.[/QUOTE]Not just VRBO. Airbnb, as well. I usually read every and all reviews of a property I'm interested in. Some of these review stated they couldn't get women in despite the hosts' assurances.

Like I said, I'd definitely stay in El Laquito or Boca vs Centro. And there was nothing wrong about Juan's apartment (I believe the same you'd stayed at before me), but I'll probably try to find something a little fancier next time with a better pool.

However, Juan is a class act and very responsive, and I would recommend using him in a heartbeat.

[/QUOTE]You don't need to go to Laguito. There are TONS of places that are chica friendly. Document check is mandatory anywhere there is security. Why would you want to skip that? Book a hotel for a week. Go to the buildings around Bocagrande that look newer and you'll see people in the uniforms of their real estate agencies. Ask them about the accommodations and the rules governing guests.

It's that simple.

I refuse to post information publicly and stopped spreading it through messaging about chica friendly apartments because those buildings end up being ruined by people going down with ten friends who act like the rules don't apply to them. The last trip I had to complain twice about music blasting at 4 AM in the morning. Ridiculous.

I've been to Cartagena three times now. First time was 4 years ago and I absolutely loved the stay. It was great for mongering with abundant options.

The past two times I've been the scene has been relegated to LDV and Space. And it's been very difficult to find a chica friendly place to stay at.

What complicates this further is that now Club Pley is shut down so there are really no options to go somewhere on site and have a good time.

With all the negative press that hit the area based on the [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord908][CodeWord908][/url] problem (widely reported over the last year) - it's likely that the city has really cracked own on the pay-for-play scene.

A shame. But seems that most of Colombia is experiencing negative developments for mongers.

I was there the week (and weekends) before the festival. I can see these chicas either taking a break in Barranquilla or going there to work. The prices are likely higher because of the high number of dudes. It's in-season now so I'm not too concerned about that.

Thanks Sean for the recent note.

I can confirm that both Charleston and Hilton are fine with visitors, Hilton charges a fee. I think most places seem to be like this if booking a hotel. Charleston, may or may not charge a fee I guess depending on who is working at the time. It's a larger hotel with a lot of traffic so I think they may not even notice you are going up with someone. Security at Hilton is very tight. I have heard Movich is okay with visitors so I have narrowed my choices down to Charleston and Movich. As per previous post, Sofitel is definitely a no go zone for visitors.

Question. How have you guys found Cartagena recently compared with Panama City as this is my last real experience in Latin America (except for Brazil but I discount Rio and Sao Paulo as it's hard to find anywhere that remotely compares). Also I'm not a clocktower guy, if I have no luck on tinder or at the bars I'll probably use an agency or one of the escort managers that works in Cartagena. I do not have their numbers, does anyone have any contact info for these people and / or know who is the best?

I am in cartagena now.

Not knowing guest policy, I reserved for a couple days at Hilton cartagena. I reserved for 1 person. I tried to bring a girl to the room, desk personnel said because I booked for 1 person it'd be a 60 usd fee and asked for my credit card. Begrudgingly, I was about to fork over the card. They'd already taken the girls cedula and was making copies. Angrily, one of the desk guys was like, this is a fake ID, you can't enter. Some back and forth and he was like, look, this is a fake ID leave or I'm calling the police. I just walked off deciding it wasn't worth the hassle.

Hilton said if I book for 2 persons, I can bring whoever I want. Except they will only register one person per stay for free. After the first person a 60 $ fee kicks in.

Hilton was full so I couldn't extend. Checked out yesterday and into hotel almirante. Booked for 2 persons and she asked the name of the later arriving guest. I smiled and told her I didn't have a name yet. She smiled and gave the same spill as at Hilton. I cracked up laughing when she suggested that I choose wisely.

Hampton by Hilton said there is no fee at all. They just register the girls cedula.

Friday and Saturday night the clock tower, dolce vita and space were packed to the brim. Most girls I came across started at 200 k for the hour, would take 150 k. Street girls 100 k. I took one from space. Was about a 7 and vibed great. 200 k and she included BBBJ, CIM and couple of other nasty azz shish that we hadn't even talked about. Makes all the difference in the world if the girls comfortable with you. We walked from the club to a short time hotel about ten minutes away. Was 20 k. There's one closer but it was closed.

Isis girl offered 350 for hour. 700 k for four hours. I don't think I'll ever be that drunk to agree to that.

I am planning a first trip to Cartagena after many trips to Costa Rica, BKK and a trip to MDE last year. Love BKK, but way too far from the US East Coast. MDE was great, but would like to be near the beach to have more daytime activities. Trying to find a hassle free place to stay and folks keep mentioning Juan and Mery, but I cannot find contact information for them on ISG forums or a Google Search. If anyone has contact information for them I would really appreciate someone sending me a PM. I also would love to find a local driver and guide to show us around for the first couple of days. In MDE we used a local driver and guide for the first couple of days and it made the trip so I would love one to find one in Cartagena if anyone has someone they could recommend. We have contacted some of the on-line bachelor party sites and we are looking for something more affordable and low key. Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.

If you want to order in constantly you can as both tinder and online ads for escorts are available for that city. Unlike Panama City there are many more things to do. You can rent a cruiser and go out to the islands etc.

You should check out the clocktower plaza at 11 pm. You won't be disappointed. And all the chicas make their way over to a few of the clubs later.

Thanks, how does the quality in CTG compare with that of Panama City recently? From what I remember, Panama City seems to get better looking and higher class girls than CTG given prices are higher, and perhaps it's a little further from home for the Colombian girls so it's a little more discreet at their end. I definitely think that CTG has the upper hand over Panama in terms of daytime activities, culture, architecture, pretty much everything to be honest.

I stayed at Morros City for 3 weeks in February and no visitors allowed. I used [URL]Mileroticos.com[/URL] to find potential prospects and found a few that used the Mar why Sol hotel on Cra. 3 #9-31 which is 5 minutes walk from where I was staying. Basically this is a motel and they charge you 10th pesos just to go to a room. I visited a good looking mulata with a great body and got full service including BBFS for 80th pesos, a real bargain. I repeated 2 other times with her. One time we had a threesome with her blonde friend for a total 100th pesos. Another time I tried an apartment near the Carulla 24 hours on Carrera 4 and Calle 5. There were 4 girls and I went with a 19 year old for 120th pesos. She had a great body, beautiful face, did BBBJ but was rather mechanical which is the case with young good looking girls.

There are great deals to be had if you use [URL]mileroticos.com[/URL] and [URL]photoprepago.com[/URL]. Use whatsapp to ask for details and clarify the service and prices.

I was wondering if there are any mansion type places in Cartagena? I will be in Cartagena at the end of April beginning of May.

Heading back to Cartagena for April 02 to April 09.

Booked with Juan again, staying in Marinarre 1203 for half the trip and then 1004 for the last few days.

If anyone is going to be in town, hit me up and we get a beer.

[QUOTE=FaustJoe;2299356]I was wondering if there are any mansion type places in Cartagena? I will be in Cartagena at the end of April beginning of May.[/QUOTE]There are no places like the Mansion or the Sportsman (Costa Rica).

There are a few brothels but the quality is low and safety is not always high.

The majority of the action is finding a friend from the clock tower, on Boca beach or in a bar.

With average prices of 120 K ($39 usd) to 150 K ($49) for an hours play and plenty of inventory to pick from.

If you hit it off, spending the day and night with you runs 150 K to 300 K.

Just read back the forum a little bit for more info.

Happy Hunting.

I'll be there this weekend. I'll report back on Wednesday. This is how it was Early Feb on a Thursday night. Every bar I went into had lots of women clammering all over me. Not sure if its changed since then LOL but I doubt it. And this was early in the night.

Took a trip to Cartagena with 2 of my regular traveling friends for a weekend early February. All 3 of us are on the exact same page once boots are on the ground.

Friday.

We stayed in El Laguito right on Calle 1 be. A nice view of each side of the beach as our apartment had a double balcony facing either side. Inexpensive Airbnb. Hit the beach in search of action. The beach is fine. Heavy market atmosphere though. Didn't expect to be encouraged to get a massage from 30 Random Beach Hustlers in 30 min but it happened. Delicious fresh drinks though!

The beach chica selection was not plentiful but there were several scattered here and there. We eventually make selections for our appetizers of the trip. I chose one thin, petite, long hair, soft bubble butt 20 yo Morena. She was so sweet, shy and had braces which gets me every fn time. After very little negotiation, we settled on 150 k HR and took them back to the apartment. Straight to the shower then straight to business. The shy act was immediately dropped. She was a hyper little thing! Loved doggy. After finishing she wanted more for no mas dinero. She wanted to fiesta with the amiga my friend chose but her amiga was not with it. Post-nut clarity allows me to realize exactly how hungry I am. The chicks exit then we hit the streets again in search of food. A couple of previous Random Beach Hustlers find us walking along and try with every effort in their soul to get us to ride La Chiva. For those that don't know, a party bus. To each is own, but a party bus is definitely not why I am in Colombia. Unless it's a bus full of bitches. And this particular Chiva was not full of bitches.

After we eat, catch a quick taxi to the Old City about 5 min away. It's almost 11 p and this Walled City is literally flooded with chicas. Tall, short. Pretty, facially challenged (although few). Skinny, thick. Colombian, Venezuelan. Dark, mocha, caramel, light, red, blue, green. I mean you name it, she was there. However, our next mission was not to monger yet, but to celebrate a birthday with a few rounds.

We kept hearing about Club Space so we headed there only to find the spot empty. Too early I'm guessing. So we end up at a bar right next to Space. Think the name was Dulce Vida. This place was filled with chicas and overall good vibes. Plenty of people dancing and having a good time. Even a couple of gringos holding up the wall staring in amazement at the wonder that is The Colombiana.

Don Julio starts to take the wheel and this one short, cute blondie has been trying to catch my eye all night. After several songs of dancing with blondie, she shoots her shot. I'the hit it for a great deal. I throw up a half court shot "I only have 47 k in my pocket. No mas". She's like no problem. I pick my chin off the floor and we head out. Walk right outside the Walled City to one of the hourly rooms. In front of the attendant, she looks at me when the guy asks for 15 k. "Again, I only have 47 k" She sighs and says no problem. She pays him and we head to a room. BBBJ. I quickly, and I mean Quickly, dog this sexy chica like the cheap piece of meat she is and return to mis amigos to share the story.

Saturday.

Walked the streets and stopped in a rooftop bar right by the Clock Tower to catch the weak ass Super Bowl. Decent vibes here. End up kicking it with this crazy Colombian guy who was also celebrating his birthday. Go figure. Over the rooftop I spot this perfect ass in white tights that I've just got to get a closer look at. I head downstairs. She's gone. My heart. To my surprise maybe 30 minutes later, I run into her again after we leave. Her name was Dubraska. Her. Ass. Was. Huge. And real! Very pretty Venezuelan chica with a pretty smile. Super soft skin. I knew immediately what needed to be done next. After a very, very brief interview we settled on 200 k HR. Worth every mfn penny. Seeing that crazy, soft, huge ass bounce between me and her tiny waist was Temporary Love. She was so willing to please me. I actually took her WhatsApp info she was so good. . but she shares a friend's broken phone. That only works some of the time. Well damn. She offered to smoke some bud with her after we finished. We sat and chilled by the port, smoked and talked. She was so sweet.

Meet up with the guys at Space. Tonight the club is packed with chicas waiting to get chose. Several stars in there but vibes here weren't as lively as the other club yesterday. More expensive too. We spend little time here and head out. Leave empty handed. Heading to grab food, I run into another Venezuelan near the Tower. Quick 150 K HR to this long haired, thick butt chica before I turn in. Not a mind blowing session but she was good.

Sunday.

I meet the one. She was on the beach eating alone. Smooth, perfect golden skin Colombiana with slightly chinky eyes. Perfect tits and ass. Objectively pretty but she Really did it for me. She checked all of my personal boxes. Literally beautiful from head to toe. I'm not fluent en espanol but I know enough. So I usually try to greet in native tongue. She starts speaking French! Wtf! She is from Cali and just happens to know French as well as Spanish. We exchange names. I tell her "You don't look like a Sara". We both burst out laughing. Because her name is obviously not Sara, and she knows I gave her my alter ego name too. She's in Cartagena "visiting family". I tell her I want to visit her vagina. She's playing hard to get. I don't like it. Still intrigued. Money talks. She suggests 150 k. I'm sold instantly because I would've dropped 300 k. I counter with 100 k + propina. She smiles and agrees if we can smoke first. Claro mami, claro. She's not making a big deal about time. This can be a good or bad thing. Vibes are good and doesn't strike me as a clock watcher. I go with my gut. We head to my spot. Smoke then shower. She was so sexy as the water flowed through her long black hair and she modeled for me knowing just how attractive she was. Massaging her perfectly round breasts I felt like in slomo. It was breathtaking. The water was also breathtakingly cold. I literally could not breathe. It was too much LOL. I catch my breath and proceed to make sweet passionate love to her during the smooth sounds of Te Bote blaring from her Samsung J series smartphone. Our chemistry was insane. We finish and cuddle because I sometimes enjoy Temporary Love. Awesome GFE. 2 more hours of banging our brains mixed with passionate BBBJ, I'm out the game coach. We chill on the balcony listening to more of her music while I worship her perfect ass. Hunger calls. For real food not her ass. I take her out for something quick to eat. We run into my friend and we all eat at a spot he heard was great. It was not great. I spent a total of 5 hours and 3 leches with this mami and spent a total of 200 k after propina and food. Great vibes with her. She had to run to her hotel but wanted to come back later that night. We had other plans for the evening but I did consider for a minute getting back up with her.

We find ourselves back near The Tower. The place is like a candy store for real. Even on a Sunday night. We chilled at another bar in the Walled City. Came across this short, pretty brown skin Colombiana. Fernanda. She was spicy. I didn't have the energy. She didn't mind just hanging with us though. "Sara" wore me out already so I was undecided on Fernanda. She was doing all the right things to get through the interview process so I ended up taking her home for 100 k + 10 k taxi propina. It was a good choice. Very active and petite with a beautiful moan. Rides like a porn star.

Cartagena was good to me. All of my sessions ranging from good to mind blowing. I'm definitely going to return very soon.

I just ended my Colombia trip in Cartagena. WOW, what can I say about this place! I was really worried that I would really love it and be annoyed that I only left 4 days for the place. But as it turns out, I was happy to leave!

First of all, the old town is undeniably gorgeous, but there are hagglers and beggers everywhere, and there is a nasty smell from the drains (and I am not particularly sensitive ton that sort of thing). The average chica in the town is nothing special compared to those I saw in Santa Marta or Bogota, and the people are not particularly friendly either.

I went down to the Torre de Reloj at around 10 pm last Saturday night, hoping to be blown away by a sea of gorgeous chicas as I had read about. There were maybe about 20 SW there, and the most obvious looking hookers I had ever seen! None were anything special either. By 11 there were maybe 50, but still no real lookers at all in my opinion. You also feel a bit stupid just walking around the square and make yourself a target for the touts and people haggling you to go to some restaurant / nightclub etc. I walked to Dolce Vita, it was completelty dead. Man, what a disappointment that scene was! I went back on Monday night and hung around for over an hour, it was no better of course! So take it with a pinch of salt when other guys are raving about the hundreds of gorgeous chicas there, maybe they haven't ventured far or have pretty low standards ?

Still, I did manage to have 2 good sessions though with a Venezualan curvy lady with massive tits who, by chance was based in a little motel just around the corner from my hotel in Bocagrande. Found her on [URL]Milleroticos.com[/URL]. She also had a great attitude! PM me for details if you're interested.

Maybe I was harder to please by the time I got to Cartagena, as I had such a great time in Santa Marta, so was not impressed by the sun and the sea as somebody who just got off a plane would be. But I have to say, the main strip in Bocagrande (Carrera 2) was one of the most depressing dumps I have ever seen! Just a stream of Burger King, McDonalds, Kentucky fried chicken etc, and just walking along the main drag there for 5 minutes was the pits! The cars on that road also give no consideration whatsoever to pedestrians and you are literally risking your life trying to cross the road, not a problem I really encountered in Santa Marta, and certainly not in Bogota where drivers were pretty courteous to pedestrians. And the taxi drivers who hang out beside the Torre de Reloj (day and nightime) are mainly young guys who drive like psycho's! One guy who drove me back in the afternoon scared the crap out of me. After that in the centre, I hailed cabs driving along on the other side of the street, who seemed more sensible types.

I am not a favour of annihilating a city, but if Dr Evil ever decides to comes back in an Austin Powers sequel, I suggest Bocagrande would be a suitable and highly disposable target ! Bocagrande, Colombia for people who aren't interested in seeing the real Colombia! Colombia for dummies! Some miserable expressionless people working in the stores there too. And lots of people trying to sell you crap you don't want and tours you aren't interested in, as well as plenty of beggers too.

On a positive note, since you guys are always complaining you can't find chica friendly hotels, well my one was definitely chica friendly and there was no cost (as a couple of times I was at the reception when hookers were registering). I don't mind if you turn the place into shagville central, as I never plan to go back! Hampton by Hilton in Bocagrande, saw several people bring back chicas, and the security guard outside accompanied them to the reception to register them. But here's the difference, in this hotel the reception is on the 15th floor, so while the security guy is upstairs with another chica (are you following this?), you can sneak your chica up to your floor if she has no ID. As all you need is your room card to operate the lift. She can't get to your room without you therefore. And sometimes during the afternoon and early evening there were periods when there was simply no security guard outside. Apart from that I am not recommending the hotel, rooms too small, keycard system is a pain, and it's annoying having the reception on 15th floor etc.

By the way, I lost my new cellphone in a cab there, not particularly bothered as it was blody annoying, ie butt-dialling Ubers in Bogota and Taxi's in Belgium while I was in Cartagena amd opening endless applications without me even touching the phone! The security in my hotel checked the camera and got me the Taxi number, and even though I gave this to the police and the Taxi coordinator at the Torre de Reloj where I got the cab, they didn't get it back despite their promises, even though the woman in charge of the Taxi's even knew who the guy was!

Actually, the day after that I ran into the big titted Venezuelan again sitting outside her motel having lunch, and thought I would ask her if she knew my Colombian number so I could dial the phone (as I only had the number stored in my phone). She looked hard for the number, but didn't have it. I thanked her and walked off, but then thought, who cares if its midday and you weren't planning to do this right now, she looked better than 2 nights before with nice makeup and a tight sweater holding in her monsters, so I just took her to her room, and had a great session that was twice as good as the first one!

On my first night there, a very pretty and curvy brunette SW passed by my hotel on Carrera 2, we chatted and I got her Whatsapp. But sadly I couldn't call her as I lost my phone, and didn't see her walking by again! Saw maybe another 10 street walkers around there, but none were great looking.

Anyway, a buddy of mine who was in Cartagena in late 2017 raved about it and the amount of action at the Torre de Reloj. But I was greatly disappointed with the amount and quality of available talent there, with the city in general, and especially Bocagrande! I doubt very much I'll be going back !

"Post Nut Clarity" . I was laughing my ass off after you said that. But it's so true. It's a weird feeling all men go through where after you nut your suddenly not as excited about the chica and wonder why you were acting so hot and heavy for her and then other things like eating take priority. Classic!

[QUOTE=Intercoarse;2301952]Took a trip to Cartagena with 2 of my regular traveling friends for a weekend early February. All 3 of us are on the exact same page once boots are on the ground.

Friday.

We stayed in El Laguito right on Calle 1 be. A nice view of each side of the beach as our apartment had a double balcony facing either side. Inexpensive Airbnb. Hit the beach in search of action. The beach is fine. Heavy market atmosphere though. Didn't expect to be encouraged to get a massage from 30 Random Beach Hustlers in 30 min but it happened. Delicious fresh drinks though!

The beach chica selection was not plentiful but there were several scattered here and there. We eventually make selections for our appetizers of the trip. I chose one thin, petite, long hair, soft bubble butt 20 yo Morena. She was so sweet, shy and had braces which gets me every fn time. After very little negotiation, we settled on 150 k HR and took them back to the apartment. Straight to the shower then straight to business. The shy act was immediately dropped..[/QUOTE]

[/QUOTE]That's what is great about Colombia. It's not a very large country but it has different vibes in different regions. If you haven't visited Getsmani in Cartagena its more upscale these days and you hear English spoken more (or should I say American is spoken more? For the nice beaches you need to head to the islands. Bocagrande, unfortunately, has the river pouring out into it so the color isn't as nice. There are plans to add more sand so it extends out but they haven't started yet. That's supposed to make it more blue and less wavy.

The touts aren't all bad. I have been entertained many times by them. There's one guy who sells watches in playa Hollywood and does magic tricks.

I do 3 things in Cartagena, drink, fuck, and gamble. In between I try to spend 2-3 days taking trips to the islands. If in doubt just buy tickets from any of the uniformed touts in Bocagrande who sell tours to the islands.

Then there's Masters Royale Casino a few blocks north of Casino Rio. This one plays blackjack out of a shoe so its possible to count cards and win big. Protip: if you have a hand with a lot of number cards bet maximum on the next hand. You're more likely to make the dealer bust or get blackjack when the next hand has lots of tens and face cards.

Those are the two I go to. The staff know me at these places and Masters Royale Casino especially know my card counting ass so I tend to only go in once or twice a visit.

Maybe staying in the centre of Bocagrande didn't help as its just a concrete sprawl, but compared to other places in Colombia I found it too touristic, not particularly friendly (the hotels and restaurants have it too easy there and they don't have to work for your cash), there were too many beggers and hagglers in the old town, and the choice of chicas at the Torre de Reloj was pretty pathetic, on a Saturday and a Monday night.

The roads were also the craziest I saw in Colombia with no quarter given to pedestrians at all, plus a taxi driver stole my phone or at least didn't give it back (it wasn't expensive but it had a months worth of photo's on it!). The cabbies also all told me they also didn't like Bocagrande. I walked through Getsemani, one street was quite cool, but there didn't seem too much to the place? Maybe there are other suburbs of Cartagena that were more interesting that I didn't get to see? But the city to me seemed to me to go from one extreme to another, namely a medieval city or a concrete jungle, take your pick. And having said all that, in 4 days I had 2 great sessions with a voluptuous Venezuealan chica with an amazing rack that found online, but I still wouldn't go back just to see her again.

It doesn't seem like you went there open minded. You are comparing it to what you are getting somewhere else. I for one love the freaking place the chica levels are amazing. I love El Centro and Bocagrande. I love the street food. Traffic? Who complains about that LOL and the driver didn't steal your phone bro you lost it. He's under no obligation to give it back LOL. To be frank you sound entitled LOL no attack just an opinion. Colombia may not be for you. I would hate for you to get to Bogota. You wouldn't make it LOL.

I'd file it under different strokes for different folks. I read your report and the perspective you shared and that's how you perceived things, so for you it was 100% accurate. Your experience is your experience, but a different guy with a different outlook and approach might present it quite differently. Not trying to pick on you, but just as an example of how one's perspective can be different:

-You mentioned restaurants along Ave. San Martin in Bocagrande. I've never counted the number of restaurants, but a conservative guess would be over 50. You chose to name what's probably the only 3 American franchises on that long strip to paint a negative picture. Not a word about the other 47+ non-American franchises, you know, local or national joints? Why not?

-You mention in your 2nd post here that the tax driver "stole" your phone, but did he really take it from you (pickpocket or strong arm) or were you just careless in laying it on the seat and forgetting to grab it before exiting the taxi? If the latter, then that's on you, isn't it?

-You went to the Clock Tower around 10 pm and then checked back at 11 pm and concluded low numbers of attractive chicas. Have you not read the numerous reports that the chicas don't even start to trickle in until 11 or after and that it's best to wait to go after 11, say between 12 and 1:30 am? Did you go when lots of folks were having a big time in Barranquilla for Carnival? Other reports here have mentioned that at times, due to heavy police presence checking for ID's (high number of Venezuelan chicas), that many of the chicas will disperse to the many side streets or clubs during such times, then return to the area later that same night and/or the next.

-You mention Cartagena being too touristic; before your trip, did you not read that Tourism is by far the #1 industry in Cartagena and that Cartagena is the #1 destination in the entire Country for domestic tourism? That's like going to a place at sea-level, near the equator and being surprised that it's hot there.

-You complain about the drivers not giving pedestrians the right-of-way and driving as if streets and roads were made for cars. All I can say is, one adjusts to his environment. Heck, one could say bravo, as too many pedestrians saunter their slow ass across a street holding up traffic as if they are royalty and that the streets were built for them.

-You mention beggars, etc. , yeah, the numbers have increased the past 2 or 3 years due to millions of people fleeing Venezuela. That could be you or I, but by good fortune neither of us are in that situation.

-You chose to stay in an American franchised hotel (Colombian franchisee) in Bocagrande, yet don't like being around so much concrete, that many tourists, tourist shops, etc. Given that you know that about yourself, why didn't you choose to stay in another location based on your advance research of Cartagena?

-You mention the people there are not particularly friendly. I find the locals in Cartagena to be super friendly, outgoing and helpful. Is it possible that it could be that you conveyed that same "I don't like it here" attitude to people in your interactions with them and they in return weren't so jovial?

I'm going to stop there, and I really don't mean to pick on you. Cartagena is not for you; different strokes for different folks. You're probably a great guy with a fun, outgoing personality, but when I read your report, it came across as someone who didn't do their homework and didn't adjust to his surroundings, instead wanting the surroundings to adjust to him. I'm most likely mistaken.

As a person who has also frequented on multiple occasions Santa Marta, Bogota, Barranquilla, Medellin, Bucaramanga, Monteria, Popayan and many small towns and villages that are too numerous to mention, I can say from experience that Cartagena does not lack in talent. It's not uncommon for a fella to have 2 - 3 great sessions a day, all 4 days there, without repeating, if he so desires (1 or 2 a day suits me fine these days, lol). Oh, and sticking with the different strokes for different folks theme, there are guys who only find Caucasian or Asian women attractive and then phrase it to say that there are not many attractive chicas in Cartagena. Me? I'm like a kid in a candy store with all the morenas and dark skin beauties! Again to each his own, but if I was looking only for the snow bunnies, I'd play the percentages and not plant myself in Cartagena!

I'm just trying to provide a different point of view to show how it is possible that one's experience may be dependent on one's own perspective, advance research and willingness to adjust. Like I said, not trying to pick on you personally.

Happy travels!

Oh Coupe, just a quick follow-up. I was not implying that you may only be attracted to the snow bunnies, I was just using that as an example to continue with the different strokes for different folks theme.

Another thing I'll mention is that a once or twice visit to a chica spot is not a conclusive sample. There is often no rhyme or reason why one day one might find an over-abundance of good looking chicas at the beach, in a particular club, walking the street, etc. , but then on another night, there not be nary a chica, or at least not one that catches the eye. Here's an example, I've been to Santa Marta numerous occasions, probably stayed in the same general area where you stayed, possibly even the same hotel, and I went to Banana's only one time out of those numerous trips and the time I went, out of approximately 60+ chicas in the place, I saw only one who caught my attention as attractive that night. Guess what? I can't from that one visit conclude that there are no attractive chicas in Bananas. Nor would I from two visits within the same week. Working girls come and go, and also, what one guy likes, another doesn't. May be a bunch of big-tittied chicas there and one guy think he's found paradise, while the guy who likes petite spinners isn't impressed.

While I found 59 or so unattractive chicas (to me) in Bananas on that one look-see, I still had fun in Santa Marta that trip and every trip there. Heck, from my experience, there are chicas looking to meet everywhere throughout the country, although maybe not at the exact moment that I'm looking!!

[/QUOTE]Hilltopper,

Excellent point by point analysis. This is a textbook example of "constructive" criticism.
This write up shows you can disagree with someone without engaging in destructive dialogue.

I agree with you 100% about the phone. If you left the phone on the back seat of the Taxi - do not blame the Driver.

I actually REALLY LIKED Colombia and plan to come back shortly! I was in Bogota for 11 days on the same trip, really liked it and had no problems thanks very much. Unlike Bocagrande, it really is Colombia! Can you speak Spanish? If not, maybe that's why you like Bocagrande, as it's hardly Colombia, just an international sprawl on the beach.

Regarding my phone, it slipped out of my pocket onto the seat, why the hell would I have laid in on the seat, LOL ! Yes, of course it's possible that another passenger took it, but what annoys me is that they didn't even ask the driver. I had the taxi number from the hotel security, and the woman coordinating the taxis outside the Torre de Reloj even told me the name of the driver, plus the police knew. But despite all their talking that they were going to get it back, they didn't try very hard ! Anyway, its got nothing to do with why I didn't like Cartagena very much.

Traffic is not a very sexy topic, but I wonder how many tourists get mowed down in Bocagrande? Cars just keep going straight at high speed. So if you happen to be half way across the street, looking the wrong way etc, I wouldn't rate your chances of survival as very high!

You're probably a great guy with a fun, outgoing personality, but when I read your report, it came across as someone who didn't do their homework and didn't adjust to his surroundings, instead wanting the surroundings to adjust to him. I'm most likely mistaken.

As a person who has also frequented on multiple occasions Santa Marta, Bogota, Barranquilla, Medellin, Bucaramanga, Monteria, Popayan and many small towns and villages that are too numerous to mention, I can say from experience that Cartagena does not lack in talent. It's not uncommon for a fella to have 2 - 3 great sessions a day, all 4 days there, without repeating, if he so desires (1 or 2 a day suits me fine these days, lol). Oh, and sticking with the different strokes for different folks theme, there are guys who only find Caucasian or Asian women attractive and then phrase it to say that there are not many attractive chicas in Cartagena. Me? I'm like a kid in a candy store with all the morenas and dark skin beauties! Again to each his own, but if I was looking only for the snow bunnies, I'd play the percentages and not plant myself in Cartagena!

I'm just trying to provide a different point of view to show how it is possible that one's experience may be dependent on one's own perspective, advance research and willingness to adjust. Like I said, not trying to pick on you personally.

Happy travels![/QUOTE]Hilltoper, you make some good points and I'm certainly not going to argue with you about all of them! Yes, it's about perspective, and the experience I had on those 4 days. But like I said, it's also about comparing it to other experiences I had in Colombia. Yes maybe you have a point about the restaurants, I just found seeing the US fast food joints a bit depressing after having been somewhere so un-corporate like Santa Marta. I was in Cartagena from 22nd to 26th March, so well after the Carnival in Barranquilla. I was at the Torre de Reloj from around 9 pm until around 11.40 pm on Saturday. Like I said on my first post, I felt a bit weird just standing around there, and if you have to keep going backwards and forwards to the place all night it becomes tiresome. Yes, of course there are beggers and I feel sorry for the situation in Venezuela, but the amount of people hassling you to take their tours, buy sunglasses / hats etc on every street corner in the old town is just too much, they will drive away tourists in the end. They're not even looking at you, ie even if you have on shades and a hat, they'll still try to sell you some!

There doesn't seem to be much management of that city. I've read articles that confirm this, administrations there keep collapsing. Maybe that's also why the drains and garbage smell so much and the traffic just behaves as they like. Yes, you're right, if I go back I certainly won't stay in a craphole like the Hampton Hilton in Bocagrande! Re. the people, I always made a point of saying please / thank you etc in Spanish to everyone in shops there, even if the reply I got was often more like that of a zombie, in Bocagrande at least! Try the corner store / pharmacy on the corner of the street by my hotel for a good example. Re. the talent, I'm more into curvy women, brunettes, mulattas and black chicas than Barbie girls that's for sure! Snow bunnies, LOL! Hadn't even heard that term before. If you read my posts going back years I'm a sucker for the curvy chicas, tits and ass all the way! Actually, I really don't get why the vast majority of mongers seem to go for women who look more like stick insects

I heard that Club Pley has reopened. Can anyone confirm?

[QUOTE=Coupe66;2304632]I went there with a totally open mind. Maybe staying in the centre of Bocagrande didn't help as its just a concrete sprawl, but compared to other places in Colombia I found it too touristic..[/QUOTE]Yes, its pretty much the major tourist getaway for Colombians, and lots of foreigners from the Americas who come in. This is the number one reason I like Cartagena. I want to do daily activities and party all the time. One the problems going to cities where people work and live is that there is too much of the mundane about. In the tourist areas of Cartagena there's always something to do and boy is it convenient. A typical cab ride from the airport to my apartment in Bocgrande is 15-20 minutes.

Hello gentleman,

I'll be visiting for two weeks next month so I'll be here quite often getting some information and posting about my adventure. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Oz Hotel?

It is Monday and I am due to fly out tomorrow. If you remember my report from same time last year, I spent a good amount of time with Claudia, a college girl from Barranquilla. This year, she happens to be on holiday to Argentina during the week I am scheduled to be in Cartagena. Total bummer for both us as we both were looking forward to another week together. She offered to connect me with her school mate named Marie and I said sure, send her my contact info.

I am traveling with same wingman as last year and he has arranged to bring in his girl from Venezuela, the same girl as last year. She arrived at her sister in laws apartment on Monday night, to wait for us to arrive on Tuesday. Knowing I am solo at the beginning of my trip, she offers her sister in law as a stand in for Claudia. If you remember from last year, I banged her sister for a few nights so I figured what the hell, might as well get some sister in law too. I tell her I will take her for a trial run on Tuesday night and we go from there.

I travel to Atlanta to stay and park at a hotel, due to early flight out in morning. Wingman flies from Houston at midnight and arrives at 9 am in Cartagena. I fly out at 7 am and arrive at 1:30 pm. At 1 am I get a phone call from wingman, he missed his midnight flight out of Houston. He rebooked best he could and won't make it Cartagena until 2 am on Tuesday night.

Tuesday morning I am flying Spirit again. Small seats and no frills but for less than $400, who gives a shit. It's less than 2 hours to Fort Lauderdale, an hour layover and less than 3 hours to Cartagena. Breeze through an empty customs area, exchange $100 usd at 2700 cop and by 2 pm, I am slammed by the sunshine and humidity of Columbia. Leaving 60 degrees and hitting 90 degrees is always a sweat soaking joy.

Standard practice for arrival, I avoid the yellow cab and seek an offsite taxi. There is Johnny, aren't they all called Johnny, hustling for a gringo to take his ride. Quick negotiation, he wants 25,000, I offer 15,000 and we settle on 20,000 ($7). Into the cab, first thing he says is you look like a cop, we both laugh and then he immediately offers girls, Cheech and Chong and Tony Montana. Shows me a 5 g solid Montana and wants 200,000 ($72). I just laugh and say no thanks, I'll make other arrangements. The entire ride we go back and forth on price. I stick to my guns at $50 usd and when we hit the condo, he accepts.

Juan's Marinaire building looks the same as last year. Slightly worn but a great location and balcony views to die for directly on small private beach. At desk, I sign in and get key for 1203. Get upstairs and find that the unit is not the same as the website. It has been cut in half and looks kinda run down. Dirty walls, lack of paint after some remodeling and no tv in the second bedroom. The place seemed small and unoccupied for a while. Send Juan an email that this unit is not as the website shows and is not going to work. What else do you have available or should I just go find another place somewhere else. Less than 30 minutes later, Adolfo is at the door to try to make peace. He apologizes, remembers me from last year and says he can give us our unit from last year, 1004 and will deal with the renters that are due to arrive in a few days for that unit. Move downstairs and the unit is the same as last year. I tell him I am happy except that there are only two towels and the sheets look a bit worn. Juan sends me message that towels and new sheets will be there in morning and he will throw in a cleaning service half way through the week for our troubles. 7 nights at 90 = 630 split with wingman is $315 for the week.

While waiting for the a / see to cool the unit off, I send out messages to about 10 girls in my phone that I am in town. As the condo is now Alaska and being familiar with the unit, I feel like I am home and crash for a nap.

Wake up around 6 pm and my phone is blowing up. At least half of the girls I contacted had responded back along with Sister in law. I respond to her first, telling her to send some pictures. She sends some showing a very pretty face but all the body shots she is covered up except to show off her nice rack. Suspicious, I ask for a bikini picture. She sends a few of her in a one piece bathing suit all from odd angles. She is definitely bigger than my preferred type. I like my girls' petite, sit and spins. She was thick, with a big but flat ass and a great rack. Being wingman girls' sister in law, I decide to give her a spin. I invite her to spend the night and she says 250,000 ($90). I tell her this is just a trial run to see if I wanted her for the week, I offer 150,000 ($54) plus taxi 15,000 ($5) plus tip if I am happy. She says no, not enough and I say no problem, good luck tonight at the clock tower.

Sun is setting so I run to pharmacy to stock up on sildenafil and stop at store for fruit, beer and rum. Settle back in at condo, a little Tony Montana, a few beers and pop 100 MG sildenafil. Start playing with the other girls that responded and cruising Photoprepagos website.

8 pm and sister in law texts again. She wants in at my price. I give her directions and tell her lets go. She arrives around 9 pm, looking cute with tight pants, baggy shirt and showing off her puppies. I got a good buzz going, offer her some party favors to catch up. In less than an hour, she has bumped 1 g of Montana, a few beers and a few shots of rum. Hanging out on the patio, music blaring some Spanish music and she is standing in front of me bumping and grinding that big ass in my lap. I put my arms around her waist and damn, I would swear she was trying to smuggle a soccer ball out of a sporting goods store. Kind of felt like a beer belly. Turned off a little but raging on pharmaceuticals, I am already all in. I concentrate on her cute face and great rack of ribs. She is playful and likes to grind and dry hump my lap with her back to me.

Time to get busy and I start kissing her neck. She responds and it's off the bedroom. She sees the full length closet door mirrors and looks a bit uncomfortable about that. I turn down the lamps and use the tv as the only lights. She pushes me onto the bed and strips my shorts off and asks for a condom. Hmmm. What? I play along and point to the nightstand. She looks scared. She nervously takes off her clothes, grabs a condom and rolls it on me. Starts to give me very deep throat that lasts less than a minute and climbs on top of me to ride like a cowgirl. Caught between shock, dismay, disgust and a great buzz, I am just frozen. Laying there thinking, what the fuck is going on. Where is the girl that was acting all sexy and alluring out on the patio. Seeing that big ass chopping back and forth on me like a belt sander just wasn't going to work for me. I gave her a few slaps on the ass to indicate that I am tapping out. She climbs off looking confused, I give her a kiss on the cheek and tell her I am OK, I am going out to have a smoke. I take off the condom, place it in her hand and leave her there.

After about 20 minutes, she comes out on the patio wearing her baggy top and asks what the matter is. She can tell I am annoyed. Wingman shows up and I divert to greeting him and we have a beer. He is tired from a long day sitting in an airport and she is still nagging at me over and over about what is wrong and I just keep saying its OK. After the 20th time of her asking, I tell her, honey, I did not expect a condom for oral, the oral lasted less than a minute and you just jumped on board. It all felt mechanical and that's not how I roll. She tells me she thought that's what I wanted and blab blab blab, at that point I wasn't listening. I tell her I am going to bed and she can stay and sleep or she can go, her choice. She decides to stay and goes into the bedroom. I say good night to wingman and when I get to bed, there she is, naked and spread eagle on the bed, arms by her side. She says she wants to try again. I climb in on top of her and she just freezes. Doing nothing but just lying there. Just climb on and do what you want position. I just chuckle and lay down next to her and drift off to sleep.

It's been a long day and this has been a long read for you guys. If you made your way reading through the entire post, you now know how I felt at the end of the first night, tired, agitated and glad that it was over.

[/QUOTE]I'm not following. It's 20 k to go from airport to Bocagrande. A little more for Laguito. Why use a taxi that's not registered? It's quicker, safer, and less hassle.

It has been reported that "they give you a hard time" about bringing guests back to your room, whatever that means. I ate there and stopped for drinks, the food is so-so and the drinks are nothing to write home about along with being a bit pricey. In my opinion, for $50 a night, you can do better.

I avoid the registered taxi on my arrival because I feel more comfortable getting party favors from them instead of from the registered taxi guys. They always have whatever you looking for in hand.

After the first ride in, I always use the registered taxis.

[QUOTE=Starlord1;2308273]Bro,

This sounds like a horrible trip LOL sheesh the fact she wanted 250 k for a wack performance. I would have told her to get lost. Also question. Why import in ctg it's a buffet out there.[/QUOTE]One reason to import is to have a repeat with a girl you have a relationship or history with. Someone that you have chemistry with. The other is that it removes the unknown factors and reduces the risk of failure, such as the performance you referenced in your response. I can roll the dice and get wack or I can bring in someone I spent time with before, remove the unknown and get exactly what I want.

Lastly, if I am importing, I am importing girls that are not pros. They usually are college girls that want to get a mini vacation, go to the beach with someone who will treat them like a girlfriend and make a few bucks along the way. It is all through word of mouth. Claudia and I hit it off. She sent me a friend last year after she told the friend what I was like and how much fun she would have. She is also sending me another girl this year because she is away. I get the chance with girls that would take more time and effort than I have to be able to get with.

Wednesday morning and I wake up with a big ass pushed up against me and a raging hard on. I can see she is already awake, just lying there watching television. Quick calculations in my head, which will suck more, another crash and burn session or just getting up and taking a shower. I figure what the hell and start using my hands to rub her ass to gauge where we are at. Not much of a response beyond a little push back against my hands and hard on but I do not deter.

I drink half a bottle of water and grab a condom off the nightstand to strap up, take a big wad of spit and rub it in her zone and start poking around down there. She moves around a bit to help me find it and I start a lazy lay with both of us on our sides and her back to me. Things are going OK, nothing special but at this point my expectations are low and I am in the mindset of just relive the load and get your day started.

I bang away for a while and get minimal response from her beyond an occasional moan and some ass wiggle and shake. It is taking way too long and for some reason I am getting stronger and further from finishing than I am closer. I put her up on her knees for some doggy and pop away for again, way too long. At this point it is obvious I am not going finish. I am hard as a rock, it all feels good but my mind is getting cock blocked by the thoughts of having sex with someone who isn't really into it. After about 45 minutes, I decide to tap out. I quick thrust for 30 seconds, breath heavy a little bit and flop down onto the bed like I am finished.

She falls flat down onto her chest breathing heavy and has a small smile on her face. I am wondering if she feels like she just made a major accomplishment and start laughing out loud. I get up and give her a towel while pointing to the bathroom and go out to the patio for a smoke. Wingman is coming from his room and seeing sister in law on way to bathroom. He comes out to patio and says, wow, she looks like she just landed a man on the moon. I said yes, she is a sweet girl. I did not want to hurt her feelings so I faked an orgasm to end the session. He just lost it, thinking this was the funniest thing he has heard since the George Carlin routine of 1993. I explained everything that happened last night, told him the list of things I was not happy with her about and was not interested in seeing her again. I told him if she wasn't his girls' sister in law, I would have handled it differently but I didn't want any negative karma coming down his way with his girl who was coming this afternoon to wife up.

I give the girl 150,000 ($54) + 15,000 ($5) for taxi with a kiss on the cheek to send her on her way. She tells me she had a good time (What the fuck?) and asks if she can come back later with her sister in law and I tell her to text me and we will talk about it later.

I take a shower and Juan shows up with four more towels, new sheets and explains he doesn't know how to change the photos on his website. He shows me his other listing on other sites that the pictures were updated, just to show he was acting honorably. I tell him no big and that we are happy now. We arrange for a cleaning on Friday afternoon, pay him in cash and off he goes.

I change my sheets and lay down to chat up Claudia's friend Maria from Barranquilla. I asked her what Claudia talked to her about and she told me that Claudia told her that she wished she could be here but she is traveling and she wants Maria to take good care of me. She told her I will treat her great both in and out of bed, was a lot of fun to be with, will take her out when she wants, always be a gentleman with her, feed her, drink her and smoke her. She said Claudia told her that I was excellent at eating pussy, a great lover that lasts forever and that I have a beautiful cock. OK! Thank you Claudia for the resounding recommendation, that's my girl working for me. She said Claudia told her she got 200,000 ($72) a day plus travel expenses to come and party and get laid.

We exchanged a few pictures and I asked if she was interested in taking Claudia's place. She said yes, that she wanted to come to the beach, spend a few days and see how we click. It was already past noon so she couldn't make the 1 pm bus and the next one was at 5 pm. She also said she was just finishing her period so to be safe, she wanted to wait until tomorrow to come. I said no problem and to keep in touch until then.

Looks like I got a free night so I start texting and playing around with the girls on my phone, to see which one I was going to take for a spin tonight. Today is wingman's birthday so we start talking about going to dinner later to celebrate, so I start looking for a date to take.

Wingman's girl calls from sister in laws house and her and wingman start talking. She wants to know what happened with sister in law, says she is ready to come over and asks if she should bring her sister in law with her when she comes. I have him explain everything, condom for blowjob, head for 40 seconds, quick ride and dead fish attitude. She explains that her sister in law is new at all this and that she doesn't know what she is doing. That she came from Venezuela to make some money for her family and has never done this before.

Wingman tells her bullshit. She should have told me that she was new at this, maybe it would have went different. She may not know how to negotiate and the business side of things but she had a husband once, a kid and plenty of boyfriends. Don't tell me she doesn't know how to suck a dick and fuck. There is a lot of Spanish going back and forth a bit, nothing angry just fast talking and obviously not seeing eye to eye.

Wingman says he is hungry so we downstairs and a few doors down the street to a patio restaurant. We have the waitress hook us up on their WiFi and as we order he is texting with his girl. She said she talked to her sister in law and straightened it all out. She said she explained how it works, what was expected and that she will suck and fuck like a crazy girl, she guarantees that she will make me very happy if I give her another try. I tell him no thanks. He tells her and she asks what do I want, what would make me happy? I tell him, OK, she is new, so lets just go to school with her and make it as easy as possible. She can come over and party and celebrate his birthday with the 4 of us. I want 3 naked blowjobs. One when she gets there, one at the end of the night and one in the morning. That's it, easy peasy. I can't make it any more safe and simple as that.

They go back and forth with my request and she hymms and haws about no condom blowjob. He says I guess you didn't talk to her well enough, forget it. We start eating and she responds OK, sister in law says if it's 3 naked blowjobs, she wants 500,000 ($178). LMAO. Oh my God, what planet is this chick on. Does she not know the competition level? For 500,000 I can bring in 4 different girls and get 4 BJ's from chicks that like dick. Tell her No thanks, I am moving on. A few minutes later it is down to 300,000 ($107). Hmmm, no thanks baby, have a good night. We continue eating, a few minutes later it is 250,000 ($90) but only 2 blowjobs. Now he is getting pissed. He tells her you know what he wants, after what happened last night, he is doing you a favor by even entertaining this, take it or leave it. OK, she says, it's 3 for 250,000, girlfriend says she is ready to come over but sister in law won't show up until later tonight.

By now I am just tired of the nonsense. The whole point to putting up with this chick was that she was family with girlfriend and the 4 of us would be partying and celebrating his birthday together. I tell him no more. Not interested. Tell her to stay home. I will get another girl for later. Send your girlfriend over alone and let's get our night started. He says OK, relays message and we finish dinner.

Back to the condo. I pop 100 MG sildenafil and half hour later, wingman's girl shows up. She has a birthday cake with her, which I thought was an awesome, thoughtful and classy move. She looks even better than last year, she has a rocking body with too many tattoos for my taste and this year she had braces. She gives me a big hug and kiss, jabbers a bunch of Spanish I don't understand and with a huge smile on her face, off she goes to the bedroom with wingman to settle in. She will be with us for a week.

I start chatting up a girl from contacts and just as I am about to pull the trigger, wingman and girl come on to patio to tell me sister in law is on her way. I say I made it clear I am not interested and that I already have another girl ready to come over. He says his girl has straightened everything out, sister in law knows what is expected of her and that I will be happy. I say no way, call her and tell her not to come, I'm not interested in more drama. He says too late, she on way already. He says he will cover her costs, it's on him. I call major bro code violation. This is a major violation of our rules about never forcing girls onto the other monger. Now I am pissed and I can see he is regretting his decision. He apologizes, says it's his birthday and please just give him a pass on this one, he wanted to make his girl happy. I'm livid and have to go to my room to chill down before I blow this entire thing up.

I lay down some Tony Montana and have a beer. His girl comes to my room and sits with me. She just hugs me and tells me thank you for giving her another try. I promise it will all be OK, we will have fun. If you not happy, she will come in and do a 3 some with me to teach her sister in law how to suck a good dick. I just laugh and relax a bit. By the way, that would be a bro code violation to accept sex from wingman's girl so I know that is not going to happen but I appreciated the sentiment.

Doorbell rings and there she is. All smiles and not a care in the world. Immediately comes to me with big hugs and kisses like nothing ever happened. Hello baby, I missed you today, I am glad I am here with you. I get her a beer and go to my room to pop another 100 MG to balance out a bit. I'm rocking 200 MG in an hour at this point. She comes in my room and asks if I have any more Tony Montana. Oh man, this chick is a hoover, 1 g last night and the first thing she wants when she gets here is more. I give it her and tell her have it and go out to the kitchen.

Music is on, beers are flowing and they put a torch thing on the cake like you see in a bar for bottle service. I stop them from lighting it in the kitchen and tell them to take it on the porch, I don't want the fire alarm going off. We have some cake, more beers, rum shots and hoover is about 2 g's deep at this point. She has been dancing around me and doing the butt waggle like last night and I take her hand and tell her it's time for the first go.

Off to the bedroom, she strips and I lay down on the bed. She digs right in and start to give a pretty darn good blowjob. Lots of deep throat and hand action. She doesn't look like she is enjoying herself so much but she doing the job and working it. I'm playing with her tits and enjoying the action and she slowing down as time passes. I can tell she is getting tired and I am just rock hard and taking it all in. After 30 minutes, I don't feel like I am any closer to a finish then when we started and I tap out. It felt great, I enjoyed it and I figure I will finish in a few hours when we go to bed. She is relieved to be off the cock and I tell her even though I didn't finish, we will still count it as one. She smiled and said OK.

More dancing, drinking and partying with the other couple. Had a good time for another few hours and started getting tired. Time for bed. She is kinda wasted at this point but she soldiers on. I stand this time and put her on her knees. She goes to town and again, doing a great job. Good throat and hand action but no eye contact. Not sexy at all, just mechanical up and down. I got my hands on her head helping her keep a rhythm and again after about 20 minutes, I know I am not going to finish for a while. She is getting tired and I am feeling bad for her. She looked kind of pathetic down there, bobbing away trying to make it happen but it was just so mechanical and void of any sexy theme, it just wasn't going to happen. 200 MG of sildenafil is hard to come down off. Taking pity on her, I tell her it feels really great but I am not going to finish. She can stop now, let's get some sleep.

She crashes in bed and I lay down next to her taking stock in my first two nights here. What a shit show it has been so far. I've had sex with this girl three times and have not cum yet. I feel like I am forcing a girl to do something I know she really does not want to be doing and that is really wearing me down. I don't usually have a problem getting a girl excited about having sex with me but this one was definitely in a world she didn't want to be in. She is just trying to take care of her family and she is not equipped emotionally or mentally to be in the business of providing pleasure for money. I fall asleep feeling sad for her, thinking of and fearing for her how things are going to turn out down the road, when she is around guys who are not going to be as understanding and sympathetic as I am.

Happy birthday wingman, happy birthday to you.

Forgot to post the pictures of the sister in law.

I guess it depends on the type of man you are. I have done this for Santa Marta and will be doing it for San Andreas but to me ctg there's so many LOL. Also about the party favors be you are not afraid of being set up or some other craziness going down?

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308418]One reason to import is to have a repeat with a girl you have a relationship or history with. Someone that you have chemistry with. The other is that it removes the unknown factors and reduces the risk of failure, such as the performance you referenced in your response. I can roll the dice and get wack or I can bring in someone I spent time with before, remove the unknown and get exactly what I want.

Lastly, if I am importing, I am importing girls that are not pros. They usually are college girls that want to get a mini vacation, go to the beach with someone who will treat them like a girlfriend and make a few bucks along the way. It is all through word of mouth. Claudia and I hit it off. She sent me a friend last year after she told the friend what I was like and how much fun she would have. She is also sending me another girl this year because she is away. I get the chance with girls that would take more time and effort than I have to be able to get with.[/QUOTE]Totally agree, all these low mileage freelancers are perhaps the most ideal, especially if she can provide that GFE experience combined with threesome sessions with either her friends or sisters during the whole trip.

Now, if I ony know where to look for ones like these, it would be a great start.

Hello,

I'll be down from May 4-May 18. I'll be getting some surgery done but will have plenty of time to play before. I know may is not peak season but will there still be plenty of women? Or will it be a problem?

Also I'm going to try and learn some Spanish but if I'm staying in Bocagrande, from clock tower should I take an Uber or taxi? In terms of safety and not getting ripped off?

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308317]I have never stayed there but have seen the hotel. The rooms are kind of small and you are a few streets away from the beach. It has been reported that "they give you a hard time" about bringing guests back to your room, whatever that means. I ate there and stopped for drinks, the food is so-so and the drinks are nothing to write home about along with being a bit pricey. In my opinion, for $50 a night, you can do better.[/QUOTE]Much appreciated, I'm leaning towards getting an testing my luck with Airbnb and hoping there's no issue.

I have been to many countries and in many different situations, I rely on my instincts to sound the alarm when things feel dodgy. I have walked away form plenty of situations in my exploits.

It can always happen but I think if you don't put yourself into too many of the worse situations, you should come out unscathed.

I am scheduling a trip with Maria to go to Santa Marta next month. Did you enjoy the place. Any tips would be appreciated.

No need to pay more than 8 K, some will take you for 6 K in the daytime.

[QUOTE=DeepXliv;2308656]Much appreciated, I'm leaning towards getting an testing my luck with Airbnb and hoping there's no issue.[/QUOTE]The way to know with airbnb is to simply tell the host what you plan to do. Unfortunately, some will wait until you're there to tell you the rules but it doesn't hurt to be upfront.

Your best bet is to stay at a hotel and go find places in Bocagrande and Laguito that let you bring back chicas. Then you can start using those places from now on. I use two buildings regularly depending on availability.

[/QUOTE]My two cents: tt was the weekend. Better to hit centro and pick up a chica you have chemistry with than just get some stranger to show up at your door step.

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308106]It is Monday and I am due to fly out tomorrow. If you remember my report from same time last year, I spent a good amount of time with Claudia, a college girl from Barranquilla. This year, she happens to be on holiday to Argentina during the week I am scheduled to be in Cartagena. Total bummer for both us as we both were looking forward to another week together. She offered to connect me with her school mate named Marie and I said sure, send her my contact info.

I am traveling with same wingman as last year and he has arranged to bring in his girl from Venezuela, the same girl as last year. She arrived at her sister in laws apartment on Monday night, to wait for us to arrive on Tuesday. Knowing I am solo at the beginning of my trip, she offers her sister in law as a stand in for Claudia. If you remember from last year, I banged her sister for a few nights so I figured what the hell, might as well get some sister in law too. I tell her I will take her for a trial run on Tuesday night and we go from there.

I travel to Atlanta to stay and park at a hotel, due to early flight out in morning. Wingman flies from Houston at midnight and arrives at 9 am in Cartagena. I fly out at 7 am and arrive at 1:30 pm. At 1 am I get a phone call from wingman, he missed his midnight flight out of Houston. He rebooked best he could and won't make it Cartagena until 2 am on Tuesday night.

Tuesday morning I am flying Spirit again. Small seats and no frills but for less than $400, who gives a shit. It's less than 2 hours to Fort Lauderdale, an hour layover and less than 3 hours to Cartagena. Breeze through an empty customs area, exchange $100 usd at 2700 cop and by 2 pm, I am slammed by the sunshine and humidity of Columbia. Leaving 60 degrees and hitting 90 degrees is always a sweat soaking joy.

Standard practice for arrival, I avoid the yellow cab and seek an offsite taxi. There is Johnny, aren't they all called Johnny, hustling for a gringo to take his ride. Quick negotiation, he wants 25,000, I offer 15,000 and we settle on 20,000 ($7). Into the cab, first thing he says is you look like a cop, we both laugh and then he immediately offers girls, Cheech and Chong and Tony Montana. Shows me a 5 g solid Montana and wants 200,000 ($72). I just laugh and say no thanks, I'll make other arrangements. The entire ride we go back and forth on price. I stick to my guns at $50 usd and when we hit the condo, he accepts.

Juan's Marinaire building looks the same as last year. Slightly worn but a great location and balcony views to die for directly on small private beach. At desk, I sign in and get key for 1203. Get upstairs and find that the unit is not the same as the website. It has been cut in half and looks kinda run down. Dirty walls, lack of paint after some remodeling and no tv in the second bedroom. The place seemed small and unoccupied for a while. Send Juan an email that this unit is not as the website shows and is not going to work. What else do you have available or should I just go find another place somewhere else. Less than 30 minutes later, Adolfo is at the door to try to make peace. He apologizes, remembers me from last year and says he can give us our unit from last year, 1004 and will deal with the renters that are due to arrive in a few days for that unit. Move downstairs and the unit is the same as last year. I tell him I am happy except that there are only two towels and the sheets look a bit worn. Juan sends me message that towels and new sheets will be there in morning and he will throw in a cleaning service half way through the week for our troubles. 7 nights at 90 = 630 split with wingman is $315 for the week.

While waiting for the a / see to cool the unit off, I send out messages to about 10 girls in my phone that I am in town. As the condo is now Alaska and being familiar with the unit, I feel like I am home and crash for a nap.

Wake up around 6 pm and my phone is blowing up. At least half of the girls I contacted had responded back along with Sister in law. I respond to her first, telling her to send some pictures. She sends some showing a very pretty face but all the body shots she is covered up except to show off her nice rack. Suspicious, I ask for a bikini picture. She sends a few of her in a one piece bathing suit all from odd angles. She is definitely bigger than my preferred type. I like my girls' petite, sit and spins. She was thick, with a big but flat ass and a great rack. Being wingman girls' sister in law, I decide to give her a spin. I invite her to spend the night and she says 250,000 ($90). I tell her this is just a trial run to see if I wanted her for the week, I offer 150,000 ($54) plus taxi 15,000 ($5) plus tip if I am happy. She says no, not enough and I say no problem, good luck tonight at the clock tower.

Sun is setting so I run to pharmacy to stock up on sildenafil and stop at store for fruit, beer and rum. Settle back in at condo, a little Tony Montana, a few beers and pop 100 MG sildenafil. Start playing with the other girls that responded and cruising Photoprepagos website.

8 pm and sister in law texts again. She wants in at my price. I give her directions and tell her lets go. She arrives around 9 pm, looking cute with tight pants, baggy shirt and showing off her puppies. I got a good buzz going, offer her some party favors to catch up. In less than an hour, she has bumped 1 g of Montana, a few beers and a few shots of rum. Hanging out on the patio, music blaring some Spanish music and she is standing in front of me bumping and grinding that big ass in my lap. I put my arms around her waist and damn, I would swear she was trying to smuggle a soccer ball out of a sporting goods store. Kind of felt like a beer belly. Turned off a little but raging on pharmaceuticals, I am already all in. I concentrate on her cute face and great rack of ribs. She is playful and likes to grind and dry hump my lap with her back to me.

Time to get busy and I start kissing her neck. She responds and it's off the bedroom. She sees the full length closet door mirrors and looks a bit uncomfortable about that. I turn down the lamps and use the tv as the only lights. She pushes me onto the bed and strips my shorts off and asks for a condom. Hmmm. What? I play along and point to the nightstand. She looks scared. She nervously takes off her clothes, grabs a condom and rolls it on me. Starts to give me very deep throat that lasts less than a minute and climbs on top of me to ride like a cowgirl. Caught between shock, dismay, disgust and a great buzz, I am just frozen. Laying there thinking, what the fuck is going on. Where is the girl that was acting all sexy and alluring out on the patio. Seeing that big ass chopping back and forth on me like a belt sander just wasn't going to work for me. I gave her a few slaps on the ass to indicate that I am tapping out. She climbs off looking confused, I give her a kiss on the cheek and tell her I am OK, I am going out to have a smoke. I take off the condom, place it in her hand and leave her there.

After about 20 minutes, she comes out on the patio wearing her baggy top and asks what the matter is. She can tell I am annoyed. Wingman shows up and I divert to greeting him and we have a beer. He is tired from a long day sitting in an airport and she is still nagging at me over and over about what is wrong and I just keep saying its OK. After the 20th time of her asking, I tell her, honey, I did not expect a condom for oral, the oral lasted less than a minute and you just jumped on board. It all felt mechanical and that's not how I roll. She tells me she thought that's what I wanted and blab blab blab, at that point I wasn't listening. I tell her I am going to bed and she can stay and sleep or she can go, her choice. She decides to stay and goes into the bedroom. I say good night to wingman and when I get to bed, there she is, naked and spread eagle on the bed, arms by her side. She says she wants to try again. I climb in on top of her and she just freezes. Doing nothing but just lying there. Just climb on and do what you want position. I just chuckle and lay down next to her and drift off to sleep.

It's been a long day and this has been a long read for you guys. If you made your way reading through the entire post, you now know how I felt at the end of the first night, tired, agitated and glad that it was over.[/QUOTE]Linyjo, I don't want to be mean, but you wrote a lot but not much actually happened. You arrived at the airport, did a drug deal with a cab driver, rented a place, then a chica you don't know showed up who provided crap service! You have the balls to do drug deals when arriving at airports and arguing for a better apartment, but not to tell a chica she's not doing it right!? If I saw a chica going near a condom before giving me a BJ, I would stop her, but the first you knew about it was when she was giving you head? Make clear before the action starts that you want a BBBJ! And sorry, maybe I'm a cautious guy but just reading your report and you inviting around a chica that you don't know, I hope you're not the type of guy I will be reading about who gets drugged, beaten up, robbed or worse!

Personally I don't find it very necessary for you to be bragging about your drug use on this forum either, just keep it to yourself. What's the point in that detail? Is it supposed to impress us as it added to (not very) wild time you had?

[/QUOTE] Sorry, didn't you just want 3 blowjobs, or was your wingman trying to negotiate an international trade deal ?

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308485] I pop 100 MG sildenafil [/QUOTE] A-ha, now I'm starting to understand better why your constant horniness is messing up your mojo and maybe your brain too ! I take half a 25mg and I'm too horny and can barely think straight ! 100 mg, this is cardiac arrest territory !

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308485] I get her a beer and go to my room to pop another 100 MG to balance out a bit. I'm rocking 200 MG in an hour at this point [/QUOTE] WTF ! I'm surprised you're still alive to write this ? That, on top of the Tony Montana, Beer & Rum, and you wonder why you couldn't come ?

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308485] I start chatting up a girl from contacts and just as I am about to pull the trigger, wingman and girl come on to patio to tell me sister in law is on her way. I say I made it clear I am not interested and that I already have another girl ready to come over. He says his girl has straightened everything out, sister in law knows what is expected of her and that I will be happy. I say no way, call her and tell her not to come, I'm not interested in more drama. He says too late, she on way already. He says he will cover her costs, it's on him. I call major bro code violation. This is a major violation of our rules about never forcing girls onto the other monger. Now I am pissed and I can see he is regretting his decision. He apologizes, says it's his birthday and please just give him a pass on this one, he wanted to make his girl happy. I'm livid and have to go to my room to chill down before I blow this entire thing up [/QUOTE] This really doesn't sound like a fun time, does it ?

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308485] She digs right in and start to give a pretty darn good blowjob [/QUOTE] Well, thank hell for that finally, I'm rooting for you buddy !

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308485] By now I am just tired of the nonsense [/QUOTE] Yes, so am I, please stop !

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308485] She is getting tired and I am feeling bad for her. She looked kind of pathetic down there, bobbing away trying to make it happen but it was just so mechanical and void of any sexy theme, it just wasn't going to happen. 200 MG of sildenafil is hard to come down off. Taking pity on her, I tell her it feels really great but I am not going to finish. [/QUOTE] Only your second night in Cartagena, and you're feeling sorry for the chica !? You are getting things all wrong dude !

[QUOTE=Linyjo;2308485] I feel like I am forcing a girl to do something I know she really does not want to be doing and that is really wearing me down. I don't usually have a problem getting a girl excited about having sex with me but this one was definitely in a world she didn't want to be in. She is just trying to take care of her family and she is not equipped emotionally or mentally to be in the business of providing pleasure for money. I fall asleep feeling sad for her, thinking of and fearing for her how things are going to turn out down the road, when she is around guys who are not going to be as understanding and sympathetic as I am [/QUOTE] So don't agree to see a chica again who didn't know what she was doing the first time, is in it for the wrong reasons, and don't give in to pressure from your wingman or his chica ! This is a road to nowhereville ! Instead, have a good time with a proper sex worker. If you feel sad for this chica, then help her if you like, but when you combine the two situations, like you say you will end up with a total shitshow. As you did !

[QUOTE=Coupe66;2308784]Linyjo, I don't want to be mean, but you wrote a lot but not much actually happened. You arrived at the airport, did a drug deal with a cab driver, rented a place, then a chica you don't know showed up who provided crap service! You have the balls to do drug deals when arriving at airports and arguing for a better apartment, but not to tell a chica she's not doing it right!? If I saw a chica going near a condom before giving me a BJ, I would stop her, but the first you knew about it was when she was giving you head? Make clear before the action starts that you want a BBBJ! And sorry, maybe I'm a cautious guy but just reading your report and you inviting around a chica that you don't know, I hope you're not the type of guy I will be reading about who gets drugged, beaten up, robbed or worse!

Personally I don't find it very necessary for you to be bragging about your drug use on this forum either, just keep it to yourself. What's the point in that detail? Is it supposed to impress us as it added to (not very) wild time you had?[/QUOTE]As I said, this girl came as a relative of wingman's girl. I did not interview her or doing any prep work. Yes, I knew it was a crap shoot and I shot myself in the foot.

I'm not trying to impress anyone as is obvious by my relating the mistakes and the less than stellar outcomes at times.

I do my best to put the reader in the room with me, without bravado or ego or being self conscience.

I am just telling my story the way it happened. It is what it is. Some may enjoy my story and some may choose to pass it up, it's their choice.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2308777]My two cents: tt was the weekend. Better to hit centro and pick up a chica you have chemistry with than just get some stranger to show up at your door step.[/QUOTE]I agree. I don't usually end up with strangers at all. Worse part is I had plenty of girls in my phone I already met or had relations with that would have gave a fun time.

I was trying to do a favor for wingman's girl and I got a shit show.

Moral of the story, make mistakes and get what you create from the mess. I tell the story to hopefully help drive home that point to fellow mongers. We all learn from our mistakes and from the mistakes of others. I'm not afraid to put it out there and let it be known. I've been mongering for 25 years all over the world, it's not my first rodeo but sometimes no much experience you have, you fall into the traps when trying to help or please others instead of helping and pleasing yourself.

I am 6-4 and weigh around 215 lbs.

My normal standing heart rate is 108.

100 MG is my usually walk around level. I usually take one for breakfast and one for dinner. 200 MG is definitely pushing my limits but it's all a balance with the other drugs, beer and rum.

[QUOTE=Coupe66;2308801]WTF ! I'm surprised you're still alive to write this ? That, on top of the Tony Montana, Beer & Rum, and you wonder why you couldn't come ?[/QUOTE]I never wonder why I don't come quickly. I know the reason. Without stimulants, I usually last around 30 minutes or more. With stimulants I can last for 2 or more hours.

Some girls really enjoy going that long and some do not, it matters the situation. When properly stimulated with a sexy chica, I have no problem finishing.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2264717]If they don't have ID be careful.

Nor have I experienced such in Barranquilla or Medellin. I do use higher-end ones so-to-speak, that are geared toward discretion, i.e, you drive into a gated compound, then directed to pull into an individual garage that goes with a particular unit. Your taxi/car pulls into the garage, they close the garage door and unlock the door to your room. You get out, go to the room, do your thing and call them when you are ready to leave (or they show-up if you haven't called at the end of the standard allotted time, which has predominantly been 2 hours at most places I've used).

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2308308]I'm not following. It's 20 k to go from airport to Bocagrande. A little more for Laguito. Why use a taxi that's not registered? It's quicker, safer, and less hassle.[/QUOTE]Taxi fare is the same to go to Laguito as it is to go to Bocagrande regardless of your starting point elsewhere in Cartagena. If one chooses to pay more, then it's because he wants to provide a tip, or he believes a taxi driver who is being dishonest.

The fares are set annually by the City, although this year I don't believe the new fares have been released due to ongoing discussions with the taxi union, officials and the public. There has been discussion of requiring meters, and I'm not sure where that stands exactly. Last month (March), they did release that the minimum fare was raised from 6,700 to 7,000. The night premium for 9 pm to 5 am is still 500 pesos. The official fares from 2018 were / are still in effect until notification of updated 2019 fares from the City.

The 2018 Official directive from the City is that the fare from the Airport to Bocagrande or Laguito is 19 mil pesos. Like you, I give the driver 20 k without the expectation of receiving 1 mil back in change.

[QUOTE=DeepXliv;2308654]Hello,

I'll be down from May 4-May 18. I'll be getting some surgery done but will have plenty of time to play before. I know may is not peak season but will there still be plenty of women? Or will it be a problem?

Also I'm going to try and learn some Spanish but if I'm staying in Bocagrande, from clock tower should I take an Uber or taxi? In terms of safety and not getting ripped off?[/QUOTE]I've been in Cartagena during the May time frame you mention for each of the past 11 years and will be there again next month. There has always been plenty of women to get with each and every time. Less dudes and less tourists overall, but I'm not there to meet and mingle with dudes and tourists so I find May to be very favorable. That being said, it has been my experience that there are plenty of women each and every month out of the year. Unless you have local girlfriends or amigas with benefits, I wouldn't be keen on being there from say Dec 23 - Jan 10th or so, nor this week / weekend (Easter); although given the high number of Venezuelan chicas in Cartagena who won't be going home for Semana Santa, there will be more women around this week than the pre-Venezuelan influx days.

Taxis are abundant in Bocagrande and it is safe to grab a licensed taxi off the street there. The minimum fare during the day before 9 pm and after 5 am is 7 mil pesos. While there's a 500 pesos premium for 9 pm to 5 am, they'll round up 1 mill, so it becomes 8 mil. Bocagrande to el Centro is 7 mil during the day and 8 mil during that 9 pm to 5 am period. Oh, and in the set fares there's another 300 or 500 pesos for air conditioning, so that will also be rounded up to 1 mil as well, LOL. The typical taxi "rip-off" will be 1 - 2 mil pesos, which amounts to 33 - 66 cents. I wouldn't let my blood pressure get elevated over 33 - 66 cents. So expect that you'll pay 8 or 9 mil during the day, and instead of 8 mil at night, you'll pay 9 or 10 mil. I wouldn't let 33 to 66 cents get to me.

Until one learns the lay of the land so to speak, it's advisable to ask the driver "how much" to go to (insert where going) before getting in the taxi. Just open the door and ask before getting in. Agreeing to the rate quoted or not up front will avoid any surprise at the end of the route. If the rate quoted is inflated, counter with the proper rate and either come to agreement or not. Oh, and even many locals do the exact same, even though they obviously know the lay of the land. Maybe (er likely) it's because they know the lay of the land that they ask upfront. :)

Another question, I'll try to learn some Spanish but is there some list here for common phrases to use when negotiating with a girl, making sure she knows exactly what I want?

[QUOTE=Hilltopper;2309007]Taxis are abundant in Bocagrande and it is safe to grab a licensed taxi off the street [/QUOTE]Yes they're safe from a security point of view, but if I was you I would try to choose an older driver when coming back from the clock tower late at night, because a few of the younger guys who took me back to Bocagrande drove like total lunatics. Plus many don't even have seatbelts! I think they must be in cahoots with the brake pad suppliers in the local area, so much gunning it and slamming on the brakes constantly 10 feet before the lights!

I've seen whatsapp is the best way of reaching out to the girls but as far as I know you can't have two profiles on a phone and I'd like to keep contacts for future trips. I don't want to compromise my personal life by giving them my real phone number so what are you guys doing?

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2308776]The way to know with airbnb is to simply tell the host what you plan to do. Unfortunately, some will wait until you're there to tell you the rules but it doesn't hurt to be upfront.

Your best bet is to stay at a hotel and go find places in Bocagrande and Laguito that let you bring back chicas. Then you can start using those places from now on. I use two buildings regularly depending on availability.[/QUOTE]I'm not understanding the problem with how people are getting stopped? When I go to a hotel, I just walk straight to the elevators and go to my room, usually no one is bold enough to say anything. How does it work here? Should I ask the hotels prior? Do any have entrances that don't require walking by front desk?

What do you mean by compromise? It's just a phone number and you can block people on WhatsApp.

Thursday morning and I wake in a pile of sweat. I grab the remote for the A / C and see that the girl must have turned it off in the night. Maybe she figured it was the only way she could get me hot. A few clicks down to 16 and I head off to the bathroom carrying a mini hangover. Too many beers and too much rum will do that to you. A long [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord134][CodeWord134][/url], a solid [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord116][CodeWord116][/url] and a few advil will fix this.

It is early for me, around 8 am. I don't usually get up this early when on vacation but I think the heat in the room made me get up. A quick shower and I head back to my room feeling mostly awake and slightly erect. The room has cooled down and the girl has now stirred. I bring her some water and she heads off to the bathroom. I turn on the television to some music channel and lay back to relax and wait. She comes back showered, wearing a towel and lays down next to me. Some minor petting back and forth and I lay down between her spread legs, with my head on her thigh. She has a huge smile, probably thinking I am going to lick her but I have not had enough opportunity to do a thorough inspection so I am not putting my face in there. I dribble some spit on her lips and use my hands and fingers to tease her for a little while. I get some moans and a little butt shake and when I look up at her, I see she is watching TV over my shoulder.

This kind of pissed me off a bit. What a fucking wack cad she is. I think, it's time for my number three and get this beast out of here. I roll over onto my knees and put out my hand. She takes my hand and I pull her up on her knees. Her hand goes to my erection and I grab a pillow and throw it on the floor next to the bed, opposite the mirror side, I don't want the view.

I nudge her and point to the pillow on the floor and she stiffly gets down on her knees. I sit on the edge of the bed and guide her head down to my lap. The mechanical bobbing starts immediately. This girls has zero game but I don't care anymore. I'm thinking, let's just get this done so I can move on. I'm trying to play with her tits but her elbows are dug into my thighs, trying to hold herself up. She is a bigger girl than I am use to and I am not use to the weight on my thighs. I try to adjust her a bit to relieve the pressure but she is so daft, she doesn't understand what I am trying to accomplish or simply doesn't care.

I take her hands off my rod and place them on my thighs and guide her head back down. Let's try some no hands blowjob for a bit. She is capable and giving it a go with a little help from me. She goes about half way and comes back up for air so I am now giving a little thrust on the down stroke to get deeper in her mouth. She is resisting a little and making a mini gag sound. Come on girl, that's not gagging. I put my hand on the back of her head and double team the push down on the head and the thrust up to get some real gag reflex. She does not seem to enjoy that and although I have been too much of a gentleman up to this point, I don't care. Possibly a small part of me is enjoying and liking the fact that she is not enjoying it. I don't like going to work sometimes, bear down and get through it chica. She plays along for a little while, over dramatic gagging. Come on, there's barely a tear in your eye, it can't be that bad.

She is trying to hold hands with me, I guess to get my hands off the back of her head. Her mechanical bobbing is slowing and she is stopping for more and more breaks. I am getting closer to the finish and I give her the, I am close hand signal, just a little more. She keeps sitting up and stretching and flexing her jaw and mouth with that pitiful look on her face. My patience long past empathy, I am going to drive through and finish this. Alternating between mechanical bobbing and jaw stretching, this episode has gone on for close to 40 minutes. With a big sigh and a sheepish look, she throws her hands up in the air and fast talks Spanish. I say ya ya baby and OK OK while just pushing her head back down into my lap. She tried for another few minutes and then stops again. Now she is getting up off the floor. I grab translator and ask what she is doing. She says she can't do it anymore, he jaw and mouth are sore from all the sucking, she says she promises she will finish it this afternoon and she heads back to the bathroom.

I throw on some underwear and lay back in bed, flipping channels on the TV until I find an English speaking news channel. Having written this one off, I am more hungry than frustrated at this point. In perfect timing I get a text from Maria, she has sent a few pictures and asks if we are still on for today. Fuck ya baby, I need a change more than she could ever know. Her pictures show a 20 year old sexy looking 90 pound sit and spin. Small breasts, thin waist, flat stomach and a perfectly beautiful face. She says she can be on the 11 am bus and be here by 1 pm. I get the feeling that I would be coming before she got my pants down so I figure I got a problem on my hands, a two day erection that I need to complete before I see her. I don't want to embarrass myself or disappoint her when she gets here. I am going to need more time. I tell her I am going out and to take the 1 pm bus, she could be here around 3 pm instead. OK she says, I will text you before I get on the bus. I tell her perfect baby, see you later.

Energized I am fully awake now. Out into the kitchen for some fruit, leftovers and some orange juice. Wingman and girl are now up, joining me in the kitchen. Wingman heads to patio and girlfriend asks me how things went. I just say, she quit on me. Surprised, angered and shocked she asks what I mean. I tell her about round 1 and 2 and how I let it go until the morning. Then I tell her about the morning and how she claimed I was taking too long and her mouth, throat and jaw were hurting. She said, well from what I have heard from my sister last year, you are well endowed but as far as she is concerned that is a good thing, who doesn't like a nice cock? I replied, your sister in law and we both just lost it laughing too loud and too long. She said she would gladly finish what her sister in law started. I said thanks but no thanks and explained me and my friend have rules that wouldn't allow that. She said she could call a friend and I politely declined.

Sister in law comes from bathroom and snuggles up to me with her arm around me. Wings girl is just staring at her with bad eyes and a about of Spanish goes back and forth. Wings girl walks off shaking her head and sister in law never loses her smile, living in an alternate reality I guess.

I join the others on the patio and we make small talk about what we are going to do for the rest of the week. Sister in law is hovering around and lingering about. I wonder what the hell she is still doing here. I go to my room, watch TV and contact a girl from my phone. We had made plans to get together last year but things went so well with Claudia, I never got away. I explain in short form what happened and tell her I need a day time friend to fix this. She tells me, come over and I will fix the problem. I've got exactly what you need. It sounds like you will be quick, it you only want oral, I will do the favor for 80,000 ($29). She sends me an updated picture and I tell her I'm all for it. She tells me she is just up the street, I can come to her place or she will come to me. With broken jaw still lingering about, I tell her I will come to her. She is in the building across from the police kiosk, ten buildings away on the corner before you get Hollywood beach. I tell her I will be there in half an hour.

Sister in law comes in, tells me she had a great time and asks if it's ok if she goes now. Honey, you have no idea how OK that is, I tell her no problem. She tells me she needs to go home and change because a friend invited her to hang out at the pool later that day. Whatever, I don't give a shit, have a great day I tell her. Do you have my money she asks? I say sure and get up to get her some scratch. I hand her 250,000 ($90) and 10,000 ($4) for a taxi. She says the taxi is 15,000 ($5) and asks if there is any tip. I say yes there is, here's a tip, learn to enjoy to suck a dick or find a different job. She just smiles at me, takes the money, kisses me on the lips and heads on out the door. Nothing phases this beast.

I take another quick shower, get dressed and head out to patio. I tell wingman I got a date, see you in an hour and you owe me 260,000 ($94) and a blowjob. He says he has the money but I am not getting the blowjob without taking him to dinner and a bunch of alcohol first. He asks where I am going and I say I got a date and start to leave. He looks confused and his girl has a wry smile on her face. Enjoy yourself she says and off I go.

A short walk down the street and I am in the elevator heading up to see Tabitha. She greets me at the door wearing the nightgown she showed in the picture. Beautiful young girl, nice see size breast, a great stomach and nice ass. She gives me a kiss and asks if I want a drink. I ask for juice and she comes back with orange juice and some vodka asking if I want? I say sure and she pours a bit too much into the juice. We share the glass and she starts rubbing my legs and up under the pant legs of my shorts. Feeling I am ready, she asks if I want to go to the bedroom. I say I am OK here and pull the bowtie that is holding her nightie closed. A nice set of hooters pop out and I can see her flat stomach. She starts nibbling my neck, licking my chest and working on getting my pants unbuckled.

She pulls off my pants and underwear and sits on my lap facing me with my erection in her hands. Hmmm, nice cock she says, stroking me and pushing her tits into my face. She works her way down to her knees in front of me and starts licking up and down my shaft until a little pre cum shows. She happily laps it up and goes to town on me. A great variation of licking, stroking, full throat along with some great sounds of slurping, gagging and moans. Ten minutes later I am tapping on the top of her head to warn her I am there. She pops her mouth off, puts me between her breasts and jerks me off to a finish. I came hard with a velocity like when I was 25, shooting all the way over her head and onto her face and lips. She drops her head back down on me to drain the last of it, squeezing my balls and licking the head. Exhausted I just sit back on couch with a stupid smile on my face, panting like a dog in the Florida sun. She gets up, grabs a towel and comes back in to let me watch her wipe it all away from her hair, face and lips. She then uses the towel to clean me up and lays on the couch with her head on my thigh, offering me a smoke.

Amigo, eso fue una gran carga. Pobre, ¿qué te hizo ella? She says into my phone. Which translated to, Friend that was a big load. You poor thing, what did she do to you? I told her that was having sex 4 times without finishing over 2 days. She told me to come see her anytime, she wanted to sit on my big cock. I tell her I will see her again before I leave.

I get dressed and fish out 120,000 ($43) and hand it to her. She said no, we agreed to 80,000 ($29), that would be plenty, you were only here half an hour. I told her she was worth every penny and thanked her for being so good at it. She said she enjoyed it and made me promise to come back because she really wanted to fuck me. No problem baby, I will make some time and come back, I am still in town 5 more days. That's what you said last time and never showed she said, with a sharp finger jab into my stomach. I gave her a big kiss on the lips and cupped and squeezed that nice ass as I head out the door.

On jelly legs and in need of a nap, I stop at the store on my way back to the condo and grab some beer and smokes for wingman. As I walk back I already got Maria on my mind. I trust Claudia wouldn't steer me wrong and I got a good feeling about this one, really looking forward to her. I could see her face in my head both the big one and the little one.

I got this song I have not heard in years playing through my head by little river band, Reminiscing. I am singing it under my breath.

"Friday night it was late, I was walking you home.

We got down to the gate, I was dreaming of the night.

Would it turn out right?

How to tell you girl, I want to build my world around you.

Want to tell you that it's true.

I want to make you understand I'm talking about a lifetime plan.

Well that's the way it began, we were hand-in-hand.

Glen Miller's band was better than before.

We yelled and screamed for more.

And those Porter's tunes made us dance across the room.

It ended all too soon.

On the way back home I promised you'd never be alone.

Hurry, don't be late.

I can't hardly wait.

I said to myself when we're old.

We'll go dancing in the dark, walking through the park.

And reminiscing".

Was it a premonition of what's to come?

Was I suffering from a cum soaked delirium?

Little did I know at the time, the storm that was coming.

I always forget to upload the picture with the story.

Here is Tabitha, my short time relief.

[QUOTE=DeepXliv;2309018]I've seen whatsapp is the best way of reaching out to the girls but as far as I know you can't have two profiles on a phone and I'd like to keep contacts for future trips.

No need for two accounts, just use the one you have. Delete or save them for next trip when done.

This is the best option if you have a phone from your cellular provider. I'm on Verizon, so my phone is locked, using a different sim card won't work.

I hear that they can unlock your phone but never tried it, didn't think it worth the hassle, especially since I'm not fluid in Spanish, so whatsapp and translator is a much better option for me.

[QUOTE=DeepXliv;2309010]Okay much appreciated! Another question, I'll try to learn some Spanish but is there some list here for common phrases to use when negotiating with a girl, making sure she knows exactly what I want?[/QUOTE]You can pre load phrases and text in translator. Just spend a few minutes putting exactly what you want in a text and it is always there at your fingertips.

It can cause problems to say a few phrases in Spanish and then not understand any of her responses.

They are used to dealing with gringos, it's never been a problem for me.

Price was discussed earlier thread. It was 8,000 anywhere from centro to Hilton. Going the entire way or just 4 blocks, same minimum rate. Didn't matter day or night, air con or not. 8,000.

[QUOTE=DeepXliv;2309092]I'm not understanding the problem with how people are getting stopped?

If you try to go up the elevators without that wrist band security will stop you. It's their job to keep out anyone who shouldn't be in the building. When you bring a chica over you register her and she either gets a wristband like yours and can stay there with you or a visitors wrist band which can be used before curfew hours.

Besides protecting the building, they are there for your protection. By showing ID, you know the girl is old enough and you have a record of who you brought into your space. What happens if she rips you off or causes a scene and / or destroys property or a hundred other things I can think of.

I am glad they got her ID, know who she is, if for some reason, we need to know down the road.

She claims it is cheaper than staying in the city and has a more relaxed vibe without all the tourist and hustle bustle. A place we can relax like on a honeymoon.

She can be territorial when we are together, I don't think she is one I will be inviting a third in for a threesome with but that is OK, she is a handful in bed that I can barely handle anyway.

Will probably come back down after Easter break and take her there. I was also looking at San Andres, off the coast of Nicaragua. Anyone ever been there?

I checked and my credit card doesn't have international fee's so based on what I've read I should get hit with the cash advance fee for the credit card and still be ahead by getting the best exchange rate correct? Next question is do you guys take out as much as you can per transaction or for the length of your stay or take it day by day to avoid getting robbed / spending more money than necessary?

The typical answers I hear are either 1) I want my wife to know where I stay and see the charge on our CC; 2) It's being paid for using a company credit card; 3) I'm using brand loyalty points.

I'm just curious, because while I have stayed in hotels throughout Colombia, apartments more times than not offer more pros than cons if you are the type who brings back a different girl the same day, the next day, etc.

Hotels are nice when you are "wifed-up" with one chica whose name you include on the reservation, and then also when you don't want chicas to come where you stay and instead exclusively use love motels to make the love. .

Credit card advances usually come with fees, and the interest starts on them immediately. I just take money out of my checking account. After the first few days I don't need the ATM machine anymore (unless I'm red nosed drunk and sleeping under a blackjack table).

Hotels in Cartagena are very strict and require the Guest to be "registered". This is not the case in rest of Colombia (excluding the high-end Hotels in Bogota).

I prefer a Hotel because the Room gets cleaned every day. Also, if you do not like the Room, you may be able to switch to another Room.

~BKKguru[/QUOTE]As to the rest of Colombia, our experience has been different, as I have been required to register my guest in hotels in the following cities: Santa Marta, Barranquilla, Covenas, Monteria, Bogota, Medellin, Bucaramanga and half dozen or more smaller towns throughout the country. Maybe one considers the hotels that I've stayed-in "high-end", although I don't, but a couple of them.

When I stay in an apartment and get it cleaned everyday or every other day, depending on my needs, it costs less than an extra $10 usd per cleaning (wash and dry my clothes as well). I like to have a full fridge, stove, microwave, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, balcony waterside, etc. , for a cost more times than not less than a small hotel room.

[QUOTE=DeepXliv;2309837]So just any checking account / debit card that doesn't have international fees is my best option?[/QUOTE]A checking account with no international fees is the best route. Most major USA Banks will charge a 3% international fee for ATM debit card transaction. Many of the machines in Colombia now charge a ATM machine transaction fee that amounts to around $3 - 4 usd. Personally, I use an online bank that doesn't charge a separate fee and reimburses you for the ATM charge of up to $10 per month per card. (I intentionally set-up multiple accounts at that bank, no monthly fees, no minimum balance requirement, etc., each having an ATM card, except 1 account with no ATM card that I use to "park" money that I then sprinkle to the other accounts with a card. Not necessary for the occasional traveler to Colombia. I am a frequent traveler).

Also, while a particular machine may have a 300 or 600 mil limit per withdrawal, you can make multiple withdrawals from the machine in the same day up to your own bank's maximum. I've read previously here where a guy states that one is limited to say 3 withdrawals. That's incorrect information. I have done as many as 10 consecutive withdrawals using the same card on multiple occasions. Why did I stop at 10? Because I only wanted 3 million pesos while using a 300 mil max machine.

If you fly into CTG, after you get your baggage and clear the last step of security and end up outside the building, walk toward the departure section of the airport. Go to the far back wall area of the airline check-in section that is nearest the domestic departure area. There will be a back wall of 6 or so ATM machines. While facing those machines, the one to furthermost right is Banco Caja Social. That bank has not started charging ATM fees yet. The max per transaction will be 300 mil, but you can take as many pulls of 300 mil up to your bank's daily max in your home country currency.

Because I don't like to have to go to the ATM when I'm out and about, I will get as much as I think I will need for the next several days or more. Once I arrive at my apartment rental or hotel, I put all the excess currency, my debit cards, my passport, etc. , in the room safe.

That's the way I like to do things. Different strokes for different folks.

Obviously we're already taking care of food, accommodations and travel. Just wondering what a good price to look for would be.[/QUOTE]Depends on the relationship you have built. I can only talk about my experiences with girls in Cartagena. I took two trips last year and one trip so far this year with a second one planned for next month. Once I built the relationship with the first girl from last year, I got the benefit this year of her providing a fill in for her since she was out of country when I visited this year.

Last year, my first trip with Claudia, before we met we agreed on 200,000 ($71) a night for 5 nights. On our second trip she agreed to come for free but I still gave her 1,000,000 ($357) after a 7 night trip. Averaged out to 143,00 ($51) a night.

This year my trip with Maria started as an agreed 300,000 ($107) a night but after 3 nights, she stayed the last two nights for free. Averaged out to 180,000 ($65) a night. She made me really happy and did some extras, so after tip and travel costs, she got 1,100,000 ($393) for 5 nights, averaged to 220,000 ($79) a night.

My second trip next month, arrangement is she is coming for free but assuming I am happy at the end, I intend to give her 1,000,000 ($357) for 7 nights, averages to 143,000 ($51) a night, "to help with school expenses".

Factor in that you buy meals and drinks and pay for entertainment at times, just as you would with your girlfriend. It doesn't add up to much, these girls just eat fruit and chicken so meals are cheap. We buy beer and bottles of alcohol in stores and don't spend much in bars, we party on the patio overlooking the beach instead. A trip to a museum or tourist attraction is usually only a few dollars.

Experience may vary according to many things, does she like you, do you give her good sex, do you treat her nice, do you dress well, smell good and how well you groom. Do you stay in comfortable places with nice amenities or in a shit hole? When you are out and about and she likes that bathing suit or dress for 30,000 ($10) or 40,000 ($14) and doesn't ask you for it, do you get it for her anyway? (With me, if she asks me to buy it for her, I most likely say no, if she doesn't ask or reaches into her purse to buy it herself, I usually get it for her.) When you go to the market for cigarettes and beer do you bring back 8,000 ($3) worth of flowers?

All that being said, In centro or at the beach, I never find it hard to find a new girl before late afternoon to spend the night for 150,000 ($54) to 200,000 ($71) a night. If things go well, the price usually drops and the length of stay gets extended. If your reasonably attractive, a gentleman and treat her like a wife and not a paid for piece of ass, the relationship develops and escalates quickly. Everything I said is with the caveat that I almost always steer clear of pro's. I seek semi pro and non pro college girls looking more for fun and good sex than for money and hustling back to the tower to find another victim.

Once you find one good one, you are set. She will pimp you out to her friends and relatives and keep the good times rolling and the cash in your pocket.
