[QUOTE=Vitrea;1232972]MHL, not to contradict you, the Yoda here (no sarcasm) , but making high quality copies closely resembling your original passport and laminating is illegal in the USA unless it says "copy" on it. As a matter of fact Kinkos would not even allow color copies of passports. Kinkos goes overboard with the federal law as per law, that is most commonly interpreted, if you make a color copy it should look like an obvious copy. Don't ask my what I do for a living but trust me on this.[/QUOTE]
Thanks for the kind words but I am far far from any kind of Yoda on Colombia, more like a guy who has been going since 05 and makes good mental notes an observations of the people and his surroundings.
About the copy, I'm talking making a good copy from your home color lazerjet printer and then I laminate it. It still looks like a copy, obviously it has NONE of the security measure an actual passport would have in it like holograms, embedded actual photo or most importantly the RFID chip. If some of you have reservations with making a copy then don't do it. Do whatever works for you. If you do make a copy and bring it to Colombia with you but have reservations with bringing it back with you then burn it before you leave but I for sure am not going to walk around with my original passport for fear of it getting lost or stolen.

[QUOTE=Black Page; 1233065]Folks,
PS: I cannot say the same positive things about police in various other countries, including Mexico, Panama, and some African countries, where I had to leave some money as bribe for having done nothing bad.[/QUOTE]Agree with you and MHL. My comments are just that. No arguments from me.
I have travelled to more countries than I can remember. I also fully agree Mexican cops are worst in the world.

Correct
[QUOTE=Black Page; 1233065]The typical story is that they stop me, they ask me what I am doing there, from where I come from, to show my passport. After that, at times I am also asked to empty my pockets and even frisked with care. After all that, when they have verified I am OK, the fierce look of police agents rapidly changes to an open smile: pat on my shoulder and "buenas noches".[/QUOTE]Nothing to add, except I do not know if in other countries an identity card in addition to the passport is standard. But one may use any identification type document that shows a photo I guess (driving license). At least this works when paying with credit card which does hardly work in Colombia without an identification document. It also works with the polce or military check points. I noticed that there are a lot of strange recommendations on this board: Do not use ATM, do not use credit card. Having family in Colombia and thus spending a lot of time there I wonder why one should behave much differntly like one does in the home country. I use ATM, I use credit card and I never run around with my passport in my home country. But what has all this to do with Cartagena? Seems to be a general topic.

I frequently use my ATM card and never had a problem. Never carry my passport in Cartagena and have been stoped but never had any problem moving on once they did a quick search. Pretty simple. Never used a credit card, but my one buddy does all the time.

Seems to be a general topic.[/QUOTE]1) I recommend to take your national picture I'd with you, plus a photocopy of the passport, only as a surrogate of your original valid passport, which under no circumstances you should take around the streets. It's precious and it must stay in your room.
Although our national I'd has no legal value in another country, it works enough well to let me have NO problems in my 25+ visits to Colombia in 5-6 years (and, believe me, I've been searched and frisked in very questionable areas).
2) About debit and credit cards, I repeat what I wrote already countless times. Skip all paranoic recommendations here and in other forums:
- you will use ATMs (debit card) to get cash, more convenient than all other ways to change money;
- you will use credit cards freely as you do in your home country (only small places do not accept it).
I NEVER got my cards cloned, or blocked by the bank for suspicious use, after many many hundreds transactions in Colombia. It's possible, but not so likely as someone says here. I got my card blocked by the bank after use in Turkey, USA and some other country, never in Colombia.

I don't like cigarette smoke, is there in LDV much or not much smoke? Is there in Cartagena pick up point outdoors or smoke free?

Playa Blanca
hey guys,
i'm heading down for my 4th trip feb 15-20, and want to take an amiga to playa blanca for a day. for a change of pace, do you go directly to the docks in the am and hook up with them (transportation / speed boat) , or is it equally effective using any of the touts near the hilton.
thanks for the help.

doc[/quote]go to docks at 7am or so, make sure you know what boat you are getting they vary alot. it could be like taking the slow boat to china, also those little boats on the east side of laguito and south side of the hilton you could charter yourself which would be quicker i would think avoiding rosario and coming and going on your own terms rather than the boats agenda, not to mention if the weather sucks you didn't buy a ticket in advance. also consider going to playa de punta arena just across from laguito, you could rent a jet ski and head over there for few hours or get little boat in laguito, not as nice as playa blanca but quick if the weather isn't cooperating.

Recent Cartagena trip
Just made my first and second trips to Cartagena recently. Both short business trips.
First trip stayed at Santa Teresa. Expensive for my taste, but I wasn't paying for it. Glad to be staying in the old town area, very cool place. And thanks to Hillbilly69's map. It came in very handy. First night went to Isis and had some beers, but just didn't hit it off with any of the lovelies. Maybe I was tired. Next day walked around a bit, spotted a couple of potential locations to check out later but couldn't for the life of me find Queens. Anyway, went up on the old wall by the hotel just to relax and check out the scenery. A tall, young, beautiful Afro-Colombiana walks by, we exchange hellos and she keeps walking. At this point I just stay where I am and finally after 50m or so, she turns around to see me still looking at her. She walks back toward my location and stops about 10 feet from me like she's talking on her phone. After she puts her phone away, I make my way over to her and in my best gringo spanish strike up a conversation. It's more comical than anything, but I get her number and we agree to meet later at the hotel for a drink. A couple hours later we meet in the lobby of the hotel and she looks stunning. Red dress showing just enough cleavage, perfect skin, sweet as can be. We have a couple of beers in the bar, then head out and grab a bite to eat. She asks me if I want to go to a club. Of course! So she takes me to. Wait for it. Queens! I couldn't believe it. Seems they put their sign away during the day. Pretty funny. So we're in Queens drinking and having a nice time, she is getting frisky and let's me know how much she loves to kiss. DFK. A freakin' wrestling match! Very nice. After a while it's time to go and I ask her if she would like to join me in the hotel. She answers by ramming her tongue down my throat again. Let's go! Entering the hotel, security directs me over to reception and I know what's about to happen. Yup, I get charged for an additional person in my room. I could have argued it, but it was late and I was very horny at this point. So I told them just charge it to my account. Up in the room we hit it off great. Total GFE. Her skin is just perfection, tall with a great body to match. DATY, missionary, doggie, cowgirl. But she did not initiate BJ and I did not push it. I was enjoying everything else! Anyway not a lot of sleep that night. Next morning, I slip some money in her bag and send her on her way as I have to go to work. Not once did she bring up money. Did not see her again this trip but kept in contact with her in preparation for follow-on trips.
Second trip stayed at Santa Clara. Again expensive for my taste, but I'm not paying for it. I have stayed in contact with Jan in hopes of seeing her again. This time I confirm with hotel my reservation is good for two people and I let them know my novia will join me. Day of arrival, Jan texts me and asks if I want her to pick me up. I pass as I have to go straight to the office. We agree to meet later in the afternoon at the hotel. When she does arrive at the hotel, again she is a total knockout. White dress against her dark skin is just amazing. I take her to the front desk and check her in on my account and give her a second room key. I can tell she is very excited about this. She has just figured out where she is going to stay for the next three nights. Get to the room and she jumps me this time. Even taking charge and going down on me for a while. I can tell she's inexperienced in that artform, but that's something we'll work on. It's a great three days. I go to work in the morning after the perfect wake up call and she goes back to sleep. I get back to the hotel after work and we go at it again, rest, then go out to dinner, and start all over again. Lather, rinse, repeat. She showed me some great restaurants, even took me to the boarding house where she stays and got to meet some of the other girls living there. Mental note, a couple of hotties. Went to the beach out in front of Hotel Caribe. Hung out in one of the cabanas and had a few beers and some food. Didn't get bothered too much, and met some of her other friends. More hotties! All in all a perfect four days. Like the first trip, not once did she talk money, but I slipped some in her bag each day.
Here's a couple of pics. She deleted the adult pics while I wasn't looking. I'll get some next trip and share them.
BTW. I'll be in Cartagena next week. Always up for a beer if anyone is interested, just PM me.

Beds on the playa
In November I noticed 2 places with beds with canopy on ther beach, red ones at the end closest to laquito and white ones about midway up the beach. Are these connected with a hotel, and available only to guests, or are they available for anyone who is willing to pay? Has anyone used them? What do they charge? I'm thinking it might make for a nice day at the beach with a friend, especially if there is very good food / drink service assoc. With it.
Thanks for your help.

LDV last night (Thursday night)
Some colleagues were visiting Cartagena and after having dinner in the center, we decided to go have a beer in LDV and check the talent.
It was not one of the best nights to visit LDV. Only a few pretty girls, not even close to what I remember from previous visits. Also the ratio girls to boys was not good.
I guess it is somehow low season around here?
I will check again this weekend and see if it was just a slow night or a bad time of the year to visit.
Cheers

LDV Saturday night
All week LDV has not been crowded at all. So my buddy and I were expecting Saturday night to have the best turn out but it was sh*t! The worse night all week. Definitely not standing room only as there were lots of empty chairs. Maybe about 25 girls and about the same number of guys? None of the girls would be stunners. Mostly 6 or 7's. All the good looking girls we saw during the week took the night off!
Overall LDV seemed a lot less busy compared to the same week last year. They've installed tvs that show the music video of the song being played. I find I spent most of the time looking at the tv instead of the chicas around me. And it wasn't because the videos were great! Also they do this annoying thing where it seems the dj goes on a break, puts on the techno music with a white flashing strobe light. In other clubs it's one song but this goes on for 17 minutes! Usually a couple of times during the night! No one was on the dancing last night.
I hope LDV is able to turn things around. Or is this their low season I wonder?

What time were you there? I was there from Sunday till Wednesday and had a blast. Plenty of nice looking girls. Now realize I am not big on the 10's I prefer around an 8 because I find there always more fun. But the night I went there there the place was packed. Didn't make it there Sunday because we didn't get up till late so we headed right to Eleckra which was packed. We had a ball. Only thing that happened was I didn't have hot water for a couple days and the internet in my apartment never worked so it kinda fucked me up because I enjoy communicating thru internet and don't feel like running to internet store often. So I brought my laptop for nothing.

Trip Report
I recently came back from my 4th trip. 5 days. This was alot different then my previous times, and in many ways it was the most fun. I met a really fun girl my last time there and had continued to talk occasionally, so on this trip it was more like going on vacation with your gf. She met me at the airport and off we went. Thanks to Juan, had an excellent ocean front apt on the 10th floor in Lagiuto. Immeiatly off to the cama and blah, blah, blah. Mi amor. They are truely very passionate women. And excellent actresses! Always difficult to tell the difference, but isn't that part of the fantasy? Finally drinks on the patio and eventually off to cafe de mar, more drinks. Then on to dinner. Was planning on heading out much later for dancing / partying. But was a very long day and never made it out again.
Went to playa blanca the next day, was very nice. I recommend going on a weekday, I believe it is a little less crowded. Also, only get the ticket for transport, as we did, skip the "package", as I believe the extras are a waste of time. Thus you get more beach time. Finally came back, more drinks on the patio, play, nap, dinner, nap and off to Mister Babilla for dancing.
This was my first trip where I never set foot in LDV or took a beach girl. Although I do enjoy the weird vibe you get in ldv where all the girls eyes are on you and they want to fuck you / take your money.
I found an excellent place on the beach in laguito if you have a girl with you, it is the place with the red beds, it costs you nothing to use them, only to drink and / or eat there. It is very comfortable, relaxing and much more romantic then sitting in the plastic chairs, you can get bottle service like at the bars, reasonable prices, excellent house music, and most importantly, roped off so the touts on the beach can't bother you, yet you can still watch the people pass by.
-
Continued.
Warning, only go to this place if you already have a girl with you, as you will fing that at least half the clientel is gay, which is not a problem for me, but you might feel awkward if you are by yourself. We wound up spending several afternoons here. The weather was excellent, high 80's no clouds the entire trip.
More of the same, dining at nice places in centro. Drinking / dancing. Do highly recommend lunch at Boneys (whole fish) on the beach, mure better quality than what you will get from the local touts on the beach (or the restaurant assoc. With the red bed place).
My frien napped for a few hours one afternoon in apt, so I went to the beach for a few beers, ran into tony, usually I can put up with his stuff, as he helped me out quite a bit my 1st two trips, but this was finally too much, I don't believe I will ever buy a beer from him again. Really a pain in the ass.
Went shopping for a few hours in centro. Got my friend some clothes. She really wanted a ring (she says no pressure or anything. Ha ha) I said maybe another time (right). These are really fun women, as long as you enjoy the fantasy, but don't allow yourself to truly believe it. As we are all really just a ticket out for them.
Anyways, all in all, an excellent trip with a really fun girl. Looking forward to another trip some time in the future, take care and have fun, Doc

Top 5 spots
Gents. It's been 14 months since I've visited Cartagena and was looking for some current hot spots for P4P. Yes and I have read the forum and am aware of LDV, Electra and Isis. Just wanted some opinions on where I should concentrate my 72 hours in Cartagena for this trip?
Appreciate any tips!

Appreciate any tips![/QUOTE]Joey you pretty much answered your own question, LDV, Electra and Isis. During the day you can pick up girls on the beach also, just make sure they are working girls, many of the girls on the beach are not working and are with family.

We meet to hotties in there teens 18 and 19, flat hard stomachs and ready to roll. Cost was 100, 000 peso each which is about 55. 00 us. Took them back to apartment and did a little smoke had a couple drinks and then did the deed. I had Tatianna, my buddys girl was Isabella. Both very nice, BBBJ and great sex![/QUOTE]Great report. You ran into these two on the beach or were these pre arranged? The last time I was there, other than the one girl we are mutually aquatinted with, I did not see any hotties with tight bodies. I saw several 19-20 yr olds but they were flabby 6s. Good for you.

What are the current rates for TLN and short time for the LDV / Elektra hot ones? Anyone been to these places this month to comment on level of talent? Does the film festival help bring better talent?

Negritas
This might seem like a stupid question, but is it realy easy to pick up black girls in Cartagena? On the beach or some other place?
My regular black honey in Bogota is out of the country just now and I'm itching for some smooth black skin and some pink pussy. Bogota is hit and miss for negritas.

[QUOTE=Orgasmico;1254010]How much do you plan to offer?[/QUOTE]Depends on the girls obviously but I'm looking at 100, 000-150, 000COP.
The question is a general one, because theres probably lots of lighter skinned girls for the foreingers that arrive in CTG.
Looking for some advise on the CTG scene with regards to black pussy

Do not know if this helps much,
But I have seen some " negritas" in both LDV and Electra,
Nice bodies in general.
I haven't tried them myself, but for sure you will find options around Cartagena, the percentage of "negritas" is in general higher in the " costa" area.

Weekend in Cartagena
Went back to CTG to look an apartment for sale as well as visiting LDV and Hollywood Beach.
The Good: LDV was rocking with lots of women on Friday nite. Best I've seen in all my trips to CTG. Pulled a gem for 200k. Although I had to buy her a drink before she left LDV with me. Apparently the owner is requiring the girls buy a drink or the hombre purchase one for them before leaving. The ladies told me that they are being blacklisted from working in LDV unless this happens.
Plenty of lower cost options trolling on the beach. If that's your game.
The Bad: if you visit Hollywood Beach don't give this slime ball Tony any of your time. He is such a douche bag and still tries to overcharge for everything even if you call him out. Avoid. Avoid.

[QUOTE=RobertSmith; 1254903]Has anyone seen this girl in Cartagena, goes by Rosa Maria Perez, photo in blue shirt. Trying to see is this is a working girl or a regular girl, she usually hangs out in El Centro and by the Puerto de Reloj, around 24 yrs old. If anyone knows of her, went out with her whatever let me know. Seing if she is playing the game or a regular girl. 3 photos attached, she's the one in the blue shirt.
More likely she has been playing me and others like the flute, appreciate any feedback from anyone who may have met her, loves to dance, have fun etc etc. Denies completely she has ever worked as a Pre-pago or prostitute. We guys need to stick together, all feedback appreciated, thank you.[/QUOTE]I don't know but damnnnnn she is ugly as a dog. I hope you aren't catching feelings over that wooden nickel. You do realize you are in Colombia and not Afghanistan? If she is or isn't, buy her a hamburger and a half bottle of guaro and move on to the next piece of hot ass.

In a matter of fact I doubt she could even work in a casa. Could she suck the chrome off a trailer hitch? Did she tell you that you were her best lay ever and you gave her 4 orgasms? Different strokes people! LOL

Chica
Not to worry, she is not in demand in Cartagena. She looks a lot like one of the street chicas in Laguito, can be had looooooong time for poco dinero (50-100K) I believe she is from Monteria. Anyway, Cartagena has a variety of chicas that visit for vacation that are looking for sex with a propina.

Working girls?
The 1st thing to ask yourself is was she looking for something, money, gift, etc. When you met her? If so do you think you are special? I met a chica from Poblado that is in college, good family BUT she was trying the game to get some dinero, etc. Often times they are called semipros here, still a working girl but new to the game. Remember folks, the most expensive pussy is when you think it is free, that and when we try and convert a ho to a "regular girl".

Hope Cartagens girls are not ALL about the business! Have met many GEMS in Colombia
I hit all these clubs Tu Candela, Elektra, La Dolce Vida (LDV) mainly to check out the eye candy, have fun, enjoy, dance to the music. Most of these girls just seem way to hardcore (only looking for $$) , I'm quite sure they will be watching the clock, looking for a good tip and all business. Too mechanical for me. I have travelled ALL over Colombia numerous times and know the game very well. I'm a gringo yet half Colombian so speak perfect Spanish yet look very gringo. The best GEMS were girls I met simply tooling around and having fun. Playa Hollywood beach girls are getting very greedy and ones from Medellin in Cartagena even worse. Years back it was so layed back and relaxed. Things seem to have really changed and its all a big business. I don't know about you, but their is nothing worse then being with a girl thats only for you for your cash. I have found numerous GFE's Girl friend experiences all throughout Colombia, changes the whole dynamics of your trip. Their is nothing better then meeting Colombian woman who want to hang with you for simply being you, definetely more rewarding. I have met many woman in Colombia who once we meet, they are with me 24 hrs a day for weeks or months, a total GFE experience. The plus is you get to look into thier true lives, meet their friends, family, work environment, social scene, see other parts of Colombia you would not have darred to see by yourself or on your own. And even if they are travelling with you, you can always find an excuse to do stuff on your own and do some play on the side with other girls. Just leave them in your hotel / apartment with a nice TV. Ha ha ha.
LDV La Dolce Vita Club in El Laquito has great music, yet is it me or the girls looking and acting way too business like? Its like not fun anymore. I used to go inside and dance / chat with the girls and they loved it. Know its all hardcore business, I walk in and I have a girl asking me to buy her a RedBull. Cali girls I love, very sensual, warm, passionate and beautifull. Paisas from Medellin a bit more hard and business like yet I have met some beautifull GFE's in Medellin, yet when they are in Medellin way better anyway you look at it. Something about once they arrive to touristy gringo-ville / European envasion in Cartagena. Its all business. I'm not complaining because even know I find great GFE even in Cartagena, yet again I'm half Colombian / Gringo with fairly good looks and a great personality.
I guess my point is its NOT all about the money, its like back home in the USA I always see these single guys driving their brand new convertible BMW, Mercedes or other luxary experensive automobile, driving all alone and doing thier loops looking for woman thinking you can simply buy a women by showing off thier new ride. I find it sad and pathetic, I even saw one guy pull over, chat with this girl for like 30 min seriously thinking like she was going to simply get in his fancy car and go out with him? Obviously did not happen. Same goes for in Colombia, if you play it cool & straight the Colombian woman find your more attractive. Yes money will get you an attractive colombian girl for a short time, yet I find it as they say in Colombia."pasajero".

What ever happened to the sweet GFE's in Cartagena. I find them everywhere in Cali & Medellin. Well, I even found this in Cartagena, yet most of the girls I see are really getting simply profit / business oriented. Obviously Colombian women have needs, it is a third world country believe it or not (Cartagena). Well you have to get out of the touristy spots like El Laquito and Bocagrande. Head out to see the REAL parts of Cartagena where the real people live and you will see & experience a whole new thing. Has anyone actually seen where allot of these girls live? Go see it and experience thier real life. Then you will see & understand that a little money will go a long way, I'm ALL for helping economically and financially girls or families in need, you would be surprised how a little goes a long way. Don't get me wrong, many Colombian need help economically, simply said their is nothing worse than a girl being with you ONLY for the money, be it in Colombia, United States or anywhere!

First, in several of the malls, the clothing mannenquins all had much smaller breast than just a couple of years ago. Also, I saw a number of girls wearing shorts at the malls. Just little observations, but I did feel some change in these girls perceptions of the perfect body. I, too, vote for the "natural" beauty that is ubiquitous among the Paisa.

Hi Vitrea
I'm a newbie to ISG, however been hobbying for about 15 yrs. I find myself in Cartagena this week. Is there any chance you could PM me with Lina's contact details? Sounds like my absolute dream girl.
Thanks in advance!
NBK
[QUOTE=Vitrea; 1219369]I have mongered all over the world and time with Lina (pronounced Leena) is probably among my top 5 all time experiences. I saw her on Playa Hollywood one afternoon, in a white hat, long white dress and celebrity style large sunglasses. She did not look like typical working girl. I hesitated a bit before I approached her with,"hola". At first she did not respond so I thought I screwed up and approached a non-pro. Few minutes later I saw her talk to another girl dressed like a typical working girl. I approached her for the second time. I got a friendly smile. (I don't think she heard me the first time). I asked her if I could buy her a drink. Took her to the only upscale bar on that beach, the one with red lounge cushions in front of a big hotel (did not notice names). Ordered half a bottle of Vodka. An hour into it, I asked her if she would like to go to my room and then go out to dinner. She agreed. I asked her about money and she said,"I do need money but that it is not the most important. I want to have fun and I will do my best to make sure you have fun. What ever you want to pay me at the end of the day is fine. I do not want to make this a pure business transaction." That was the last time we discussed money.
Lina is 24, light brown hair, great figure, Nice face, cute smile and is very sexy. She is intelligent, has a great sense of humour and open to anything. We went to the room showered, played around, went to cafe del mar, took carriage rides, went to La Vitriola, went to LDV and danced for a while, (Fragma is closed) and came back to the room for some more play. She stayed till morning. She left at 8 AM and came back at noon. We toured the city, she scored some we_d for me, went to the room and played. Freshened up, cafe del mar, went bar / restaurant hopping and ended up at Mr Babbiz (sp?) in Gantesmani. Cool bar with nice music. Went back to the room to continue the party there.
I had a phenomenal experience but she may not be the girl if you are looking for a fast fuck. For me, I would go back to CTG just to see Lina. If you see please treat her nice. You come across girls like this rarely.[/QUOTE]

Mariana and Yesevia
There's a very cute young girl. Mariana. Who I met recently in Cartagena. She's not too tall, brunette with relatively pale white skin. Natural Cs. Fantastic attitude. You can find her through Jason on Playa Hollywood (the far end of Bocogrande) ; Jason is a softer spoken version of Tony, with a decent command of English. She does not hang out on the beach, but Jason has her number.
Jason should also have the number for a girl. Yesevia. Who was very nice and relaxed, and not a typical beach / LDV hard girl. Yesevia is a student and a cyclist (although shorter than most cyclists I've encountered).

[QUOTE=MiamiHeatLuver;1256508]Give me a nice normal athletic ass with beautiful be-cup banana titties over an awkward looking silicone ass with bolt-on's any day of the week![/QUOTE]Thank you! I feel the same exact way. Guys really need to start spreading the word that all this plastic $hit is not attractive. The pics locogringo posted of Alejandra I thought were absolutely adorable. No way I'd change anything on that girl.
Now I can understand if a lady has a totally flat chest or odd shaped breast getting some average sized fake boobs. My sister and my current girlfriend are almost flat-chested and I know for a fact that it bothers them. Nothing wrong with them wanting to fix that problem, but if a lady already has nice be-cups or see-cups she has no business having a bunch of plastic added on. And the fake butts, OMG from some of the pics I see coming out of Cali, this $hit is way out of hand. Who really thinks a big obviously fake-plastic butt is attractive? I think it looks disgusting.
Honestly the first thing I think when I see a girl who obviously has pounds of silicone all over her body is "how do I know that's not a post-op tranny". Seriously, it's not feminine at all.
Sorry guys, please excuse my ranting.

Nothing wrong with them wanting to fix that problem, but if a lady already has nice be-cups or see-cups she has no business having a bunch of plastic added on. And the fake butts, OMG from some of the pics I see coming out of Cali, this $hit is way out of hand. Who really thinks a big obviously fake-plastic butt is attractive? I think it looks disgusting.
Honestly the first thing I think when I see a girl who obviously has pounds of silicone all over her body is "how do I know that's not a post-op tranny". Seriously, it's not feminine at all.
Sorry guys, please excuse my ranting.[/QUOTE]I agree with this rant; 100% The pics a few post ago of Alejandra (?) she was PERFECT the way she was. It's a "Keeping up with the Jones" attitude that is fueling this gross over the top plastic surgery. I know too many girls who have destroyed their perfect. PERFECTLY Perfect natural C or B cup titties! Sad.
I do think some fake boobs do look nice on a thin but flat chested girl. That porn star look is IMO very sexy. That plastic butt thing is whack!

[QUOTE=Jinxx; 1259578]Thank you! I feel the same exact way. Guys really need to start spreading the word that all this plastic $hit is not attractive. The pics locogringo posted of Alejandra I thought were absolutely adorable. No way I'd change anything on that girl.

Different game?
I was wondering- girls maybe having silicone not for being attractive to guys. They may be doing it for looking good in other girls' eyes in competitions among girls. They may not care if guys like their silicone bodies, but they may care if other girls admire and envy their bodies.

Cartagena is preparing for holy week
Lots of new girls in the beaches, in laguito and bocagrande, over the next few days, and it fills up on holy week, with girls from all over Colombia. Looking for extra cash.
Some new and others the same as usual. Hollywood beach, Laguito, Centro, at the clock tower. And the other clubs at the Bomba el amparo, area. Where the locals go, a bit cheaper. Also.

Anyone need info?
I am a US Resident, currently living in Cartagena, in Laguito.

OK.
Well, if you take a taxi to laguito, from the airport, you will find various buildings, I recommend, Torres Del lago, Mirador Del laguito, and Playamar. They are close to the beach, and to the LDV. The college locals hang out in centro, mostly near the clock tower, or at the malls, CASTELLANA MALL or Caribe Plaza.
Daytime, well, maybe the beach in Bocagrande, or laguito, or the malls, the ones I mentioned before.

Cartagena in early July?
I am thinking about going down to Cartagena the weekend before July 4th, anyone know if that is a particularly good or bad time to go? I believe it is university holiday during that time.
Also, it will be a national holiday for San Pedro why San Pablo, do you know if this is a holiday where people will be celebrating a lot or if there is a possibility of them cracking down and closing the bars? Given Cartagena is a coastal town, I imagine it would be the former, but prefer to confirm before booking the trip.

Cuba vs. Cartagena?
I will likely be making a monger vaca from June 29. July 4th and am waffling between Havana and Cartagena, I would love to hear some insight from seasoned mongers. As a bit of background, I have been to Medellin 3 times and Cartagena 2 times already, and speak enough basic spanish that I have never needed a translator or had difficulty communicating in Colombia.
I am thinking about Cartagena or Havana because I love the working girl bar scene such as LDV and Electra, and it seems like La Cecilia and Salon Rojo would be similar types of scenes.
How would you rate the non-mongering activities in Havana vs Cartagena? I like to sight see, and hit the beach and relax during the daytime, maybe snorkel or jet ski, etc. Also, while on vacation I do sample "partying" a bit with the see readily in Colombia, is it possible to "party" at all in Cuba or is that a death wish?
Any advice or opinions would be greatly appreciated. I'll definitely post a trip report and pics from wherever I go. Thanks!

Great places
Both Havana and Cartagena are great mongering locations-I have been to both many times; they are a lot of fun but very different. Havana, Cuba is of course comunist, and they are very much into protecting their reputation as a country with no hookers. Most of the chicas in Columbia work for certain establishments for a Contract and most hussle in the open. Cops in Cartagena will not care if you are with a chica in a cab-not in Havana. There are many hotels and apartments available for rent in Cartagena who don't mind you bringing in girls-in Havana you need to go to private casas that allow it. Hotels in Havana frequently will not allow guests and if they do they charge a lot of money. There is very little Plastic surgery in Cuba as they don"t have the products; there is plenty in Colombia. Food is super in Cartagena; not so much in Havana, unless you know where to go, But generally its about 30% cheaper in Havana for everything including chicas. There are a number of spots that rival LDV in Havana; like Jonny's; but its a bit of a game. You will not be able to leave in the same cab as the chica; however you can always give her the address of your casa. Havana is nice because there are many chicas you can pu on the streets, parks and public areas that are non-pros; they will go with you cause their family needs the$$-much more so than in Cartagena. Both places are good for parties but Cuba is lacking in many of the basics from the US embargo. Ie. Bring your own Rye whisky and their coke is crap. You can't go wrong with either palce but if you decide to go to Havana and need a contact you can pm me; I also have friends who own a Hotel in Cartagena thats chica friendly.
BTW I plan to be in Cartagena next month and Cuba in June; good luck and stay safe.

1st trip to Cartagena 3/22 to 3/26
Well. It was a choice between CTG or Blackbeards, I hadn't been to either. Decided to hit CTG. HIt town Thursday, caught a cab to one of Juans apts. Hit the store got some basics, the apt didn't have toliet paper or soap, plus some beer and aguadiente. Hit the shower and hit the beach. Ran into the infamous Tony. He had a cutie in tow, maybe a 7. I tried to get around his BS by paying cash for each beer. Paind 200000 for the chica. After talking and drinking awhile. Good service bbbbj, hit all the positions, I was satisfied. Relaxed for awhile hit the famous LDV. Some hotties, but serious pros! Pulled a cutie, an 8 or 9. No bbbbj. Good, but professional service.
Next day hit the beach again, passed by Tony and drank at Bonys for awhile. They called a girl, but I wasnt interested. Tony came down and harrassed me! LOL! Ended up back at Tonys because he had some hot girls. All in all, six girls in 3 days. The three I got from Tony were the best. Hes a royal pain in the ass, but hes got hot girls and theyre usually pretty cool. I'm guessing theyre semi pros. I took 2 from LDV and 1 from a casa called something Marina, I'm not sure where it was but it was far as hell!
I hit Tu Candelas and Isis. TU candelas was dead, Isis was expensive and I really didn't dig the vibe. The walled city was cool. All in all, I have to say I had more fun in Medellin. However, I'm glad I made it to CTG. Nothing like seeing it for yourself! Peace!

Cartagena trip March 11. March 23
I spent a long 12 days in Cartagena and had spent time between flying solo and having my wife with me. I arrived on a Sunday afternoon and found out that my wife moved to Monteria and is renting out our house and business out to friends. It turns out she makes a good profit by living in a less expensive city. I just do not understand Colombia women and why they think it is better not to tell me important things, but rather find out later. She joined me though on Monday night.
Because I had Sunday and most of Monday available to have some fun, I decided to see what Tony had available. Early in the afternoon, he found Isis (photo attached, hopefully) She had red streaks in here hair and sported enhanced 36 Ds and I swear butt implants. She quoted 300K, which I refused. She countered with 250K, but would stay with me all night. Reluctantly I agreed and off to the apartment. I rented one of Juan's apartments in the Marinare building and it had a great bed. Isis is more enhanced than I like and I normally go for the slender girls with a smaller ass. But there was something about her smile, laugh and face that I found enchanting. She gave me a full massage with her breast and then followed-up by kissing me head to toe. She guided my fingers to her ass and wanted me to fully engage her asshole. I could feel her muscles open and contract to accept my ring finger. She whispered she would do anal for another 100K. I did not feel up for that so I just layed back and relaxed when she gave me a tongue massage. Over the next six hours we cuddled, fucked and I came at least three times in her mouth. One thing that scared me though was she pulled off the condom and inserted my bare dick. She got in about fix or six strokes when I noticed I was bareback with her and pulled out. I am 57 years old and do not need a child younger than my grandchildren. After the six hour date, we went out for something to eat and heads turned our way as headed to the back of the restaurant. We were at a back table and she faced away from the other patrons. She would smile and rub my cock with her feet and then stick her tongue into the side of her cheek simulating a blow job. She would then laugh. It was a great time with her. Although 250K was high for a beach girl, she did make it worth my time. She left around 9pm. Three hours later, I saw her at LDV.
After a nap, shower and some OJ, I headed to the casino and LDV. I caught up with some of the local friends at the casino and snuck over to LDV. I snuck over because they know my wife. My wife doesn't mind me spending time with the LDV girls, she just doesn't want to lose face with her friends. Just as long as I am discreet, she is OK with it. After speaking with ISIS for a bit, I let Isis know I am there to see what else is available. Isis was cool and introduced me to a few other girls. None caught my eye. I was about to leave when I saw Marie who was wearing shorts and a T-Shirt. For LDV, very casual. She was a student and was about to leave because she had a test the next day and did not want to be too tired. She said she would spend three hours with me for for 150K. She obviously was not there every night and only was available on a part-time basis to earn a little spending money. She was average build with nice 34 Bs and a small ass. She had a little baby fat, but nothing outrages. She gave one of the best blow jobs I have had. I swear, Colombian girls must have to take classes in how to give head because they all seem to be experts. She stayed for two and a half hours which was OK for me because I was ready for sleep.
On Monday morning, I headed to Olympica to stock up on supplies and get ready for my wife. She finally arrived around 7:00 pm. For the next few days, it was normal husband and wife things and going to the casino or relaxing at the pool. On Thursday, my stepson arrived from Monteria, so I spent time with him. I took him down to the beach and Tony remembered him as a small boy, not this 6 foot tall 14 year old. I had to tell Tony not to ask him if he wanted a girl or coke or other vices Tony has availabel. Tony was a little agressive this trip and was sniffing quite a bit. Must be coked up. Thursday and Friday was spent taking my stepson to the mall for clothes, McDonalds, and the cinema. Friday night we went to the Hard Rock for some overpriced food. We then headed backtothe apartment around 10:00pm.
My wife was ready to hit the casino, so we poured some Chivas into a plastic bottle and walked into the casino. The Chivas lasted us a few hours to get us to lose at the roulette whee. I had enough of roulette and started watching the poker table. There was a very attractive girl playing poker and was with some other beautiful girls going back and forth between the casino and LDV. She noticed I was watching and she introduced herself by giving her name Paola with a nice smile. She spoke English and told me she was having a good time watching my wife play roulette. My wife likes to have a good time and the people that work in the casino knows my wife very well. She has a great sense of humor and everyone around her laughs when she is around. Soon my wife and I headed to the BlackJack tables to change our luck. After winning a few hands and up about $50. 00, Paola joined us at the table. Soon she was winning also and when my wife went to the cashier to put her winnings into her account, Paola did not play until my wife returned. Paola is from Bogota with long legs and even longer brown hair and light skin. She carried herself like somebody that had grown up with class and money. She had an attitude of a girl from Manhattan. There were at least five guys trying to impress her and try to get her to leave. She would just wave them off after a few minutes. We had played for a long time and soon it was closing time. Both my wife and I were pretty well lit and I was surprised as we were leaving Paola was walking with us down the stairs and got into the backseat with my wife. Soon we were heading to an after hours club. After a drink none of us needed, my wife and Paola headed to the bathroom. When they returned, they talked a bit and then Paola leaned towards me and told me in English that my wife asked Paola if she wanted to go someplace and have sex with us. Paola told me that whe was not a working girl, but if I would pay for a room and breakfast afterwards, she would agree. Well I never ran as fast to the door to hail a cab in my life (not even in my teens) with my wife and Paola on each arm. We arrived at one of the sex motels up the hill not far from the airport. I wished I had not had so much to drink because the sight of Paola's body was just something out of Playboy or more like Penthouse. She definetly was not a girl next door. She has a slim waist but a nice round ass with 36 Cs and of course her long brown hair and full lips. The three of us spent a few hours having fun and it suprised me a bit that my wife enjoyed women as much as she did with Paola. We ate breakfast and dropped Paola off at her hotel and we headed back to Laquito. Our son had already been swimming and was hungry for lunch. I thought what the hell and realized it was 1:00 pm the next day. I gave him enough money for lunch and dinner and headed to bed. Both my wife and I slept until it was getting dark. A wasted day. NOT.
The next few days were spent quietly and my wife told me they had to head back to Monteria on Monday morning. I happened to go down to the lobby when I ran into Claudia, one of the girls I met on the street two years earlier. She greeted me with a big hug and asked if I would be interested in her and her 18 year old sister. I said I would meet up with them later when my wife left. My wife left on Monday which meant I had the next three days for play. I was hopingto run into Paola, but no such luck. Just as well, nothing could have happened that would have topped the previous time spentg with her. I went to the beach and Tony left me alone for a fe hours so that I could relax and play in the water. When I was ready to head back to the apartment, Tony would not let me leave until he got me a girl. A few I did not like, but he soon found some 18. 19 year old girls that looked like they were just tourists. Hell, they looked like they were ready to go to Disney than ready to suck mydick and balls. Real petite and just innocent looking. Innocent until they quoted 200K for one hour. I said what! No way, I countered with 200K for three hours, but they stuck with one hour. As much as I wanted to dive into them, I could not agree to just one hour. I headed back to the apartment, but by the time I got there, Tony had sent another girl, Maris. Maris agreed to stay three hours for 175K. Maris had a baby three months ago and later I found out she was still breast feeding when I got a shot of milk in my mouth. She had a nice slender body with great tits and no sign of just giving birth a few months ago. Maris was so cute and was just a gentle person and asked me if it was OK if she could kiss my dick. Of course I said and once again she proved to be a good student in cock sucking. I walked her down and quickly got into a taxi because her mother worked in the Atlantis building across the street. Pictured with her panties on.
I headed to Riquisimos for the sixth time that trip and the waiter knew me and my wife very well. When he found out I was alone, he grinned and said the devil can now come out and play. He knows me all too well. On the way back I ran into Sandra, Claudia and bher sister sitting out in front of a small internet cafe. There was also another girl whose name I did not get, but was slim with the best ass I have seen in awhile. She is 18 and always wears a hat. Claudia later came over with another very petite girl. She was about 5 foot weighing about 85 lbs. She was 21 years old and gave great head just like she was taught. She showed me a picture of her 7 year old daughter and I commented you had her when you were 14 and she just grinned and stated she liked sex at an early age with all the boys in the barrio.
Over the next few days, I spent time Claudia and her sister. I have spent time previously with Sandra, but I wanted something new. Claudia was only in town for a few weeks and left for Medellin this past Sunday. Her sister is just a fun girl with great lips and flat stomach. Claudia is shorter than her sister, but has a better face and better tits. My last night in town, Claudia and her sister came over and gave me a massage and BJ, each time I would give 100K each. Claudia then headed out for about ten minutes while her sister and I finished and got cleaned up. Claudia returned with groceries to prepare me dinner since it was my last night in town. While Claudia cooked pasta, her sister danced with me and we took pictures and videos. They left, but Claudia returned around 11:00 pm to spend the night for 100K. In the morning, she went to the airport with me to wish me a good voyage. Claudia and I have been friends for two years and we provide each other what we both need, me companioship when my wife is gone and her money. She never even looks at what I give her and just accepts. Usually 100K.
Overall, this trip was one on the best trips, but 12 days is too much. By the last night when Claudia was blowing me, I almost asked her to stop and just lay next to me. Notice I said almost. Tony is getting some very cute girls, but at 200K I told him not to bother me especially if for only one hour. It seems the out of town girls are expecting too much for little time, while the local and street girls are still very economical and accomodating. As I type, all I can hink of is Paola and my wife giving each other oral and then turning their attention to me. It is a memory that will last forever. Now back in the midwest, it is very difficult to work with such a big smile on my face.
I hope I upload the pictures correctly.
To all good hunting and Buenos Noches.

US Secret Service Agents & Prostitutes
I bet every male US Secret Service Agent volunteered for this duty for the opportunity to meet some local Colombian women and culture. It's too bad that someone had to rat them out. I guess we won't be getting a "trip report" from any of them.

Secret Service Agents Sent Home from Summit for Alleged Misconduct.
Updated: Friday. 13 Apr 2012, 9:20 PM CDT.
Published : Friday. 13 Apr 2012, 9:14 PM CDT.
(NewsCore). A number of US Secret Service agents tasked with protecting President Barack Obama during his trip to Colombia for the Summit of the Americas have been sent home amid allegations of misconduct, The Washington Post reported.
Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association president Jon Adler told the newspaper the accusations include at least one agent being involved with a prostitute in Cartagena, where the president arrived Friday.
Secret Service spokesman Edwin Donovan declined to confirm what the allegations involved, but said in a statement that "the Secret Service takes all allegations of misconduct seriously" and the incident was being investigated by the agency's Office of Professional Responsibility.
Donovan did not specify how many agents were involved, nor how many had been recalled from Colombia.
"These personnel changes will not affect the comprehensive security plan that has been prepared in advance of the President's trip," his statement said.
The Post said it was alerted to the misconduct by journalist Ronald Kessler, who has written a book on the Secret Service. Kessler said as many as 12 agents had been sent home.
Kessler said soliciting prostitutes is legal in Colombia, but was considered inappropriate by the Secret Service.
Obama flew into Colombia on Friday afternoon for the Americas summit, which is set to be attended by leaders from throughout the region.

Secret Service Sent Home
Another story said 12 were sent home. How'd ya like to be on Bill Clinton's detail? Now that's some nice work. But under any administration, this has probably been going on for a long long time.

I took my nephew to Cartagena in March 2011, he was just graduating college, blonde hair blue eyes he stuck out like a sore thumb.

Each one of my nephews I lectured they need to each come with me on one trip before they get married and see what the real world has instore for them rather than to get brainwashed into getting married and having a big fat wife a few years later. Anyway the whole way down I am telling him about the beach, clubs and such, we get there to the beach its packed full of chics, I introduce him to at least 10 different girls. I had no plans to hook him up with any at that time because I had to get him a phone yet before the store closed because we were going to Carnaval the next day, as we we leaving the beach he comes running up behind me like his sneakers were on fire calling my name, I turned around and said," What? ", he says I think we could have had some of those girls back in our apartment, I spit my beer all over him and said, " We could have had them all back in our apartment, " as I laughed until I almost passed out. He looked at me with the dumbest look on his face all confused, later I took him to the LDV and he finally understood what the score was. Unless you see it for yourself you can't comprehend how different it is from the USA. The agents were just enjoying themselves!

Sorry to rain on the parade
While I take advantage of opportunities just like any other red-bloodied male, I take a hard line on the Secret Service agents' Columbia caper. If you have prostitutes, you will have cocaine, etc. The agents went to Cartagena to protect the president and not party. End of story.

Great response. I wonder if our friends Sandra and Claudia got in on the action. Could have been big bucks for the street girls that stay at the Atlantis. I laugh when I picture a dozen agents walking into LDV with their sun glasses and trench coats and trying to be cool talking up the girls. I bet they overpaid also. I know it is not reality, but on a rainy Saturday morning, I need a laugh.
I better be careful what I write about them, because they could show up at my doorstep by lunch time.

Totally inappropriate
Yeah, guys, have it your way. But these Secret Service guys have destroyed their careers. And rightly so. For getting involved with prostitutes in a country where drug gangs dominate. Through their stupidity they committed a major security breach and made themselves and their mission vulnerable. A punter may not understand this because he is only after pussy and not protecting the president. 'Nuff said.

Talking $$ AFTER the deed is done instead of before, making a scene instead of handing over money to end a bad situation quietly, drinking too much to be able to think cleaerly and protect yourself, allowing police involvement etc etc. There are lessons to be learned. These guys probably see it the same way by now. Ruining their careers was not worth saving money or "showing who is in charge." Some of the lucky ones will probably be able to get away with demotions and suspensions but some of them are fucked. They are going to wind up in low end private security jobs and possibly lose their government pensions.

Every once in a while, I notice a poster on the board who appears to be writing from many different locales. I wonder what kind of cool job he has that enables to work, make money, and travel to various exotic locales to sample the local talent. Perhaps, the answer is we have some SS guys on ISG?
Since, it has been reported that twelve were sent home, we can expect a Judas in the group. I think we can expect more tawdry revelations as the investigation proceeds. Who knows, maybe they will subpoena ISG reports. Now, that would be fun.

He was asking for it
This is what happened, according to the Wall Street Journal's detailed report that may be found at wsj. com:
"The Secret Service agents were caught when one of the women stayed in an agent's room past 7 a.m. in violation of hotel policy, said Rep. Peter King (R, N. Y.) , chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, which oversees the Secret Service. That agent initially refused to open his door for the hotel manager, which prompted the manager to call the police, who later reported the incident to the USA embassy, Mr. King said."
It was during this time that the woman refused to leave, claiming she had not been paid.

Secret Service and Public Deeds
Thought I would look here to get a sense of the damage done by some of "America's best"! These knuckleheads are obviously green to the hobby, and I would suspect, not ISG card carrying members. At a minimum, you'd think they understood the true meaning of the word "secret"! Everything about this episode seems amateurish, from the wolf-pack approach to mongering, to bedding down in the same hotel as one's boss, to being oblivious to potential media scrutiny. Seems to me that it would have been much easier to pay more just to get rid of the girl, qietly! Any early home returnees will certainly have some sxplanin to do!
NYTimes' version a tad different sequence of events:
"The woman apparently began causing a disturbance in the hallway, eventually bringing other Secret Service agents — as well as a small number of law enforcement and military officials working with them on security and communications matters — out of their rooms and attracting the attention of hotel management and security."
-
This have happen before.
I wouldn't be shock if the CIA are pulling these guys travel history right now and are sending a team out to interview local pimps and hookers and showing them these guys pictures to see have they paid or didn't paid for hookers services and what ages were they. They are going to dig deep into these guys past travel history by checking their passports stamps, phone calls, PC hard drives. You name it this is only the tip of things to come.
I am sure this wasn't the 1st time these guys was out hunting for hookers when they were on duty.

Non-pros in Cartagena
All this because the guy thought she was a "non-pro". Also, he probably had plenty of "game". A fitting punishment would be to banish him to the US for life.

It was the FARC
Personally, this whole deal is humorous. Dumb ass chooses to fuck a Colombian girl, doesn't pay, and he is exposed. In no civilized Western Country in this world would this event be newsworthy. The real import of this "scandal" is to expose the remaining influence of Puritanism on the United States. Bottom line is if you treat people like he treated the sex worker. Didn't even want to pay her, then decisions have consequences.
Digressing, I believe the FARC is responsible. If it is not, it should damn claim credit. Now, that would be an interesting story, so I'm starting it here. It's highly possible. Thirty percent of the FARC are female, and some are hotter than any working girl in the city.
Only good energy!

The SS agents are just having a good time during their free time. I don't understand why the Colombian police would report to US embassy though? That does not make sense. If one of us did that (not that we ever would) would the local police report to US embassy? One reason I can think of is if the SS agent acted like a jerk to the local police and tried to throw his weight around.
About SS, Even when they are travelling, they do get off duty. Who knows what happened? May be she demanded more than she agreed to and may be he did not have cash on him. I highly doubt if he thought she was a non-pro as someone else suggested. I can see your nephew thinking that but I doubt SS agents would be that naive.
Regarding your story about your nephew, I think it is cool what you are doing. Showing them the options. Would you do that with your son (if you had one of that age)?

Secret Service Public Deeds
Kid,
You may be right, Authorities did look at the hotel register to see who checked-in female guests. This is good reason not to ever get your meat where you get your potatoes!
"A senior administration official briefed on the accusations against the Secret Service agents pulled from duty in Colombia tells ABC News that a heated argument between at least one of the alleged prostitutes and at least one of the Secret Service agents first alerted authorities of the Hotel Caribe in Cartagena to the cavorting between Secret Service agents and prostitutes.
The argument was a dispute over the bill for services rendered, the administration official said.
Hotel Caribe authorities went to investigate the ruckus and learned that there had been some activity between Secret Service agents and prostitutes, the senior administration official said.
Hotel authorities then went down to the reception desk to see who else of the American guests may have signed in female guests. Call girls. For the evening.
Initially, this official said, that inspection led the hotel authorities to have questions about 22 Americans. 17 Secret Service agents and five special operations soldiers who were there to assist the Secret Service. Their names were reported to the lead USA military official on the ground.
That is not to say that all 22 men had hired prostitutes, the administration official underlined. Some of those about whom the hotel raised questions may merely have been attending a party and violating curfew. Eleven Secret Service agents have been sent back to the United States. The five USA special forces members remain in Colombia, per the request of the Secret Service.
The State Department says that adult prostitution is legal in designated "tolerance zones" in Colombia, though restricting the sex trade to those zones has been difficult."Sexual tourism" is reportedly widespread in Cartagena and other coastal cities."

Because we as mongers see prostitutes regularly we think that any guy should be dialed in to the scene and that's simply not the case especially when dealing with girls from a city such as Cartagena, some of these girls are very slick. My bet would be that he picked her up in a club and took her back to his room never discussing money until the deed was done and she asked for el dinero. Also there is the alcohol factor, he may have been drunk or a little buzzed and got caught up in the moment. Either way, this event will cast a dark shadow on Colombia in a lot of peoples eyes that haven't been to Colombia unfortunately.

Storm In A Teacup
What a storm in a teacup."Americans went to Colombia and had sex for pay with Colombianas". Americans of all ages and careers have been bedding chicas from less sex-starved destinations for centuries with the occurrence of many more serious incidents. Why this one has achieved the coverage it has is a mystery to me. It would be interesting to know.

Come on guys who are we kidding. These guys are secret service agents. It is their business to do "Secret Service." You are not only fooling yourself but you are just wanting to be plain ignorant. I don't understand your thinking process.
This happens all the time. If some one wants to think this way through then you can surely come to conclusion that this report only gives the Secret Service Agents a bad name but also does many other things which I have no reason to elaborate on this board as it can and will be only argumentative.
Think. Think. And Think some more before giving the US SECRET SERVICE the benefit of doubt on this or any other matter.

How much Bs can you stand
Just a thought from the fearless leader of home land security. He stated that is "compromised the security of the president". I guess getting layed at night and off work is a going to lead to some potentially bad problems. The guy wasn't there yet and I don't think they would be talking to the chicas about the itinary of the president. It just made to much noise so they panicked and called them home. After all with a stiff dick, you know how the mouth will talk. What we needed was a few senators or congressman there and then see what happens.

Bad news
It is humorous to try and guess what might have happened, speculate, agree or contradict but at the end of the day most of us would have to agree that this is bad news for those that like to monger in Colombia and try to do it under the radar.
I blame the assholes at the hotel management squarely for this."Disputes" can happen unexpectedly and sometimes you can't control them. The guy did not beat her up or was violent. It was a disputed bill for crying out loud. The hotel management should know how to handle it and they had no reason to start checking the registrations of other guests. How ridiculous is that? The guys manning the desk at night let them in and the guy during the day obviously got pissed and took it out on the guests. If they were going to be so prissy about it, they should have not let them in the night before. What a cluster fuck.
I feel bad for the SS agent. My sympathies are with him.

That was years ago when I opened Loco Gringo Cafe and was probably looking for a reason they were wrong, per my other life. One friend tells me that he can't go to Cartagena anymore because noone will believe he was fishing, Please, take the pussy out of Colombia and how many would go there? For the beaches? Medellin countryside? GOD save Colombian pussy.

[QUOTE=LocoGringo;1269571]Chicas were supposedly from Pleyboy Club. 7-9 guys there. Arguement over how much one was charging in the morning, has happened to many, including myself.[/QUOTE]If that's the case, than the guy is a complete idiot for not negotiating his girl before services. What fool does that? Even if he got himself a really rotten one, you always have to be prepared to take the short end of the stick in the hobby.

Now congress is going to investigate the whole thing. The agents were at Hotel Caribe and it is not a chica friendly Hotel.

They were staying at the Caribe, chica has to leave her cedula at the front desk until leaving. Guys I know did takeout there (Pleyboy) last month. 100+ takeout fee and 160+ for chica, that is some expensive Colombian pussy, even before he got busted.

L was so glad it happened to those Agents
They made it so damn hard we have to leave the country to hobby somwhere and when you busted with a hoe all your day is fucked. L love it when these people are busted, police, secrect service agent, fBI and of them. Can, t get no action, cus the police have clean out the streets and don, t have money to travel somewhere too

Secret Service Agent very well know What they are doing.
Many on the board are very easily giving the benefit of the doubt to the Secret Service Agents. What I am clearly saying is that it is their business to know that in Cartagena their are working girls all over.
Come on it is not like just one guy got lucky that night. All 12 of them got lucky. That is just not possible that all 12 of them didn't know what they were getting into.
I think it can be clearly thought that from this day onwards any body wanting to travel to Colombia at least for next one to two years will not be able to make lame excuses about why they are planning to go to Colombia.
LOL. More chicks for us non US residents.

John.
[QUOTE=Climaxnow;1269524]So what your saying is that a Secret Service agent of incredible credibility decided to cheat a working girl or are you saying this chicka conspired to scandalize the secret service. So much easier to believe that love led a man down a foolish road.[/QUOTE]

Who is sounding like a tight ass moralist?
[QUOTE=Climaxnow;1269481]I would also like to add that Secret Service guys easily get laid in the States with there good looks and prestigious job. Unfortunately, that does not mean they are familiar with the social nuances of women in foreign cities. When the director realized the use of prostitutes was prevalent among his men, he was left with no choice but to recall all the agents and not compromise the security of the President. This poor guy probably stood up for what he thought was right, not realizing the gigantic clusterfuck he was creating.[/QUOTE]Sport fucking compromises the El Presedente? Give me a break! Would anyone in the Western world give even a rat's ass if the Presidential agents of any world leader were getting laid while off duty? Of course not. What this has generated on this thread is a defense, or at least attempted observations of the mental processes of the agents, followed by an explanation of the perceived just result arising from the event. Frankly, the hypocritical responses are disappointing but obvious.
Why hasn't the administration simply said that the sexual lives of the Secret Service agents while off duty is of no concern of the President. A strong argument can be made that sex makes one happy, and the President deserves to have happy people protecting him. I'm damn sure not going on the record to suggest that fucking ever endangered anyone. Man, throw off and reject the Puritan influence in America. Come out of the closet, support the secret service, support our fellow mongers (they learned the hard way that there's no free pussy) , and stop trying to justify any harm to them for doing what we all do.
But, maybe I'm wrong. I didn't understand that secret service agents took an oath of celibacy. Maybe it's the puta involvement that triggered the outrage. Some of you guys sound like "them." You'll fuck'em, but agree with them being degraded. Well, fuck you!
Only good energy!

[QUOTE=John; 1269516]Come on guys who are we kidding. These guys are secret service agents. It is their business to do "Secret Service." You are not only fooling yourself but you are just wanting to be plain ignorant. I don't understand your thinking process.
This happens all the time. If some one wants to think this way through then you can surely come to conclusion that this report only gives the Secret Service Agents a bad name but also does many other things which I have no reason to elaborate on this board as it can and will be only argumentative.
Think. Think. And Think some more before giving the US SECRET SERVICE the benefit of doubt on this or any other matter.

You tell Colombian immigration upon entry that you are visiting your girlfriend and you tell the same thing to the agents at passport control upon re-entry to the USA and there isn't jack shit they can do, if you are a USA citizen you have the right to travel and as long as you aren't breaking any laws they have to let you back into your own country, what are they going to do, tell you to go back to Colombia?

Excuse Travelling to Colombia.
I guess I didn't put my thoughts correctly. Yes it has nothing to do with being US resident. What I should have said is for those who were using excuses like we are going golfing, fishing or any other excuse like that with family and or friends then I believe that excuse will be much harder to fly.
Manizales you are right about visiting the girl friend story. That is exactly what I tell Immigration that I visit my girl friend in Colombia.

According to Fox News, an employee of the hotel demanded extra money for the agent's guest. He balked and a conflict ensued that was brought to the attention of the embassy. If that is a fact, what a piece of s* hotel worker.

I'm all for having fun, but if you're going to play around and go out on the edge a bit, you may just want to play by the rules and not make waves and draw attention, especially over a few dollars.

Doesn't make him a bad guy just makes him human. I could go on and on and on about how stupid he handled the situation but you guys can see what he did wrong; The biggest being "Don't shit where you eat" When I worked for a big company and I was at their hotel that THEY paid for, I NEVER had a girl come to me. I always went to her (One time she was in the same hotel in Chicago!
Now the issue of not paying the Chica Fee. That is where he turns into an A+ King of *******! What was the fee? $30-$75 bucks? I'd imagine he makes well over $100G's a year. He sold out his career because he was too cheap to come up with the fee, put dirt all over his name and for what? He's too cheap to pay the fee! If it's a hotel rule it's a rule! If the rule was unfair or if the time limit was 2 hours and he took 2. 15. Well then you can argue.
You have to assess the situation; Best case: I don't have to pay the $75 fee, but I'm going to have to argue with this clerk all night. Is my time and mental heath worth $75? Yes! Worst case: I make a HUGE stink over it and the Clerk calls his boss who drops the time and I get bagged from my awesome paying job?
What a IDIOT! When committing a caper rule #1 is do not get caught! If you have to pay a few bucks or go a little bit out of your way to insure your end result is achieved so be it!
Funny. I like to say "Don't be cheap, don't be lazy, don't be stupid and you'll have the best chance with a girl" guess that guy should have read my posts or followed me on twitter! Hahahah

Oh No. The Jig is up!
All I hear in the news is about the 12 secret service and 5 military personel who have gotten sent back to the US for alleged prostitution scandal. According to the new on Wednesday night a prostitute complaint about money that was owed to her and the US embassy was notified.
Not so bad. Who cares?
The problem isn't that some horny gringo wanted some Fine Colombian ass. It's that every news is covering it and saying prostitution is legal in Colombia. That means 1. More people will be coming down to get some driving the prices up. 2- giving Colombians and Americans a bad name. 3- it took away from the entire goal of the meeting down in Cartagena, security, trade, infrastructure, globalization, human capital, economic growth and natural resources and social development and the private sector.
Also 1 out of every three articles out there spell Colombia with a U. Nothing good can come out of this. The worst is the prices going up. ARGH!

Cartagena
Hey guys, will go to Cartagena for one week and have some questions. Would be nice if you could answer them.
1. Are there brothels (are the legal?) or can I just pick up girls in clubs and take them home?
2. Do I normally go to the girls home or do I have to take them to my hostel?
3. Is it normally possible to take "guests" to a hostel and can I ask the hostel if its possible?
4. You always talk of girls from the beach, what is the name of the beach, where I can find the girls?
5. Where can I find the cheapest hookers? Beach, bars?
6. What are normal prizes in Cartagena for an hour? I always read of 200k. Does that mean 200 dollar?
Anyways it seems to be really expensive, so where can I find cheaper girls (and is it safe)
7. Do I have to ask the girls or do they come to me? And can I ask direct for sex?
8. How can I distinguish between hookers and normal girls?
9. Are there also normal girls looking for sex with a gringo?
Sorry, I know that these are many questions, but I m sure they are helpful for people who haven't been there and want to go.
Thanks a lot

Expensive Pussy in Colombia.
Talk about Expensive. I honestly think that only place in the world that got real expensive for pussy over last 7 years is Brazil. I mean jeez. High End Clubs now cost upwards of US$ 200 to US$ 250 for one hour with a girl. OH my God I wish for the return of 2004 or even like 2000 in Brazil. Those were the times.
1 US $ was equivalent to almost 4 reais. Now it is like 1. 5 damn.
Cartagena Puta inflation is just normal. It is the epicentre of Colombian Sex. Every body knows in Colombia about it and prostitution IMHO is some how accepted in Colombia.
In the words of Boyd (owner of Castillo) their are beautiful working girls in Colombia available any day of the year and at any time. The more I see of Colombia the more I agree with his statement. Prices are only going as high as you would want it to be.
No working girl is going to tell you 200k for TLN if you ask her how much she wants for TLN. If you are lucky she will say 300k. Sometimes they will quote you 400 or even 500k. It all depends on each individual to decide how much they are willing and able to pay.

Secret Service and the STUPID USA Media
Oh My F*ing God, have you payed attention to the SHIT the media is cooking about the secret service and the prostitutes in Cartagena, I mean seriously. I just got sick listening to some of the stupid crap they are saying. They are suggesting that these prostitutes could have been part of an organization that sent them to get information to hurt POTUS, The only organization that they could have been part of is the propago union that says "charge the gringo 350k per hour". If Americans did not have a stick up there ass about prostitution than they would not see this any worse than if they had a disagreement with the maid about a tip, seriously. But since it was a "prostitute" she must have been capable of anything? Right? BULLSHIT. I have been with many woman in Cartagena and there were sleazy ones that I would not turn my back on and there were very sweet ones who I would trust with anything. Prostitution is the norm in Cartagena. And that is what the Media in the USA is missing here.

The most difficult part was, after getting pretty good at spanish, having to learn portuguese and get good at it.
It's not easy going from being able to fully communicate and flirt and joke in a language (spanish) to speaking like a Kindergartner again.
Luckily, if you already speak spanish, the learning curve is high as the languages are very similar, though different enough to not be understood if you don't learn the other.
IMO I'd rank the Colombianas (maybe tied with Venezolanas) for number 1 in beauty, but they're Triple A compared to the Major Leagues of the Brazillian girl when it comes to sexuality and fun and more laid back and easy going in general.
Just from my experience and overall general opinion.

[QUOTE=PeterHold; 1270069]Hey guys, will go to Cartagena for one week and have some questions. Would be nice if you could answer them.
1. Are there brothels (are the legal?) or can I just pick up girls in clubs and take them home?
2. Do I normally go to the girls home or do I have to take them to my hostel?
[red]3. Is it normally possible to take "guests" to a hostel and can I ask the hostel if its possible? [/red]
4. You always talk of girls from the beach, what is the name of the beach, where I can find the girls?
5. Where can I find the cheapest hookers? Beach, bars?
[red]6. What are normal prizes in Cartagena for an hour? I always read of 200k. Does that mean 200 dollar? [/red]
Anyways it seems to be really expensive, so where can I find cheaper girls (and is it safe)
[red]7. Do I have to ask the girls or do they come to me? And can I ask direct for sex? [/red]
[red]8. How can I distinguish between hookers and normal girls? [/red]
9. Are there also normal girls looking for sex with a gringo?
Sorry, I know that these are many questions, but I m sure they are helpful for people who haven't been there and want to go.

Putagate
What makes the Secret Service agents' actions so incredibly stupid is the fact that there are fuck rooms available right on the premises at Pleyclub, which is supposedly where they picked the girls up. There was no reason to bring them back to the hotel at all! There are 5 rooms available at Pleyclub, and if there were more than 5 agents wanting to get laid, well they could just wait until a room became available. That's certainly better than risking your career!
There are several things indicating that these agents were amateurs at mongering. First of all, they violated what I call the Iron Law of Mongering: always negotiate prices and services upfront before skin touches skin. They also apparently didn't bother to check whether the hotel where they were staying was chica friendly and they were seemingly oblivious to the fact that bringing a gaggle of putas to the hotel all at once would attract attention in a situation where you don't want to attract attention. And finally, they seemed oblivious to the fact that haggling with a puta over price will create a scene, and they seemingly ignored the hotel's rules regarding the time a chica must leave.
As a US citizen, I want to emphasize that I couldn't care less if a Secret Service agent engages in p4p when he is off duty, as long as it doesn't interfere with his duties. But if you're going to do it at least do it intelligently. These guys were just plain stupid.

Pleyclub
Yea your correct Lorenzo apparently Americas best and brightest wanted to show off their putas at the Hotel Caribe. Use them taxpayer dollars to turn a hotel into a brothel I say, maybe the best use my tax money has seen in a while. You think they had them lined up at the pool playing their music loud and smoking Cohibas, having the girls take turns showing their boobs?

Secret Service Bragged About Protecting Obama While Partying At Colombian Brothel
CARTAGENA, Colombia — ABC News has learned exclusively that the Secret Service officials accused of misconduct in Colombia revealed their identities by boasting at a Cartagena brothel that they worked for President Obama.
Partying at the 'Pley Club' Wednesday night, eleven members of the president's advance team allegedly bragged 'we work for Obama' and 'we're here to protect him. '
The officials spent the night throwing back expensive whiskey and enlisting the services of the club's prostitutes, according to a bouncer at the club and a police source.
Sources tell ABC News several of the men agreed to pay for, and received, services from the 'highest category' prostitutes available at the club, who charge upwards of $200.
The men paid for the sexual services in advance but when it came time to settle the bill, there was a dispute over the charges.
The group became belligerent and the police were called. The argument between the officials and the bouncers from the club escalated and ultimately spilled onto the street, according to several eye witness accounts.

Pussy Power
[QUOTE=Dolphin12;1270211]Prices higher or not, cover blown or not. This is not the point. The point is that the US – society has a huge problem with sex. This society is sexually inhibited and repressed. Under cover female cops run the streets as a bait for punters. How sick is that? People want to be free and this is no freedom, this is repression like a sexual iron curtain. The US society is a matriarchy and as a result to this men want to break free and travel the world for a noble dead. Unless we stop pussy to set the rules, we'll never be free![/QUOTE]Dead on Brah, however we are not close to stopping the pussy, they do run the show here and they want to stop p4p everywhere. The have the media, the progressives (hard left) , and Hollywood on their side. The church is also a big part of the USA Sex Prison. Liberal cities like San Francisco are still very repressive (unless you're gay) when it comes to paid consensual sex between 2 people. They have undercover stings and the poor saps who get busted for solicitation (can) go to, John School, to avoid a record. John School is run by angry ex-hookers so that must be a lot of fun for the guys, haha.
In my town (SF) the city rents out a HUGE facility called The Armory, to guess who? Kink. Com where they make xxx porno, mostly gay, I think. So here in wonderful California it is legal for a producer to pay 2 people to fuck each other and film it. It is not legal for one person to pay another for sex tho. It is legal to trick nice guys out of their money on Broadway Street w / sexual titillation and innuendo but not legal for the guy to hire a woman for a little TLC. If your a heterosexual male you have to play by the rules of the pussy and there are plenty of rules. Oh and the guys here? They're clueless as to how bad they're being treated and repressed, absolutely clueless, haha.
One last note. The cheapskate SS agent really fucked things because now (and hopefully temporarily) Colombia will be known for it's hookers. Now I have to be careful who I tell where I am going. No No No Cartegena is where all the hookers are not Medillin where I'm going. I'm going for the coffee. Haha WTF!
Checking into CB for my coffee in 30 days, life is good.

Putagate my 2 cents
The real concern I have with this (as a US citizen) is the total lack of common sense or is it arrogance these agents displayed.
If they boasted that they were there on official business to anyone, they should be terminated for stupidity.
If they brought the hookers back into their hotels, thus creating a security breach, they should be terminated.
If they brought the hookers into rooms where their I'd's, weapons, or other official materials were present, they should be terminated for a security breach.
If they had laid pipe at every decent working girl house in town, and crawled back to the hotel (using their own dime) , I would say great, go for it and party til you drop.
The real issues here are stupidity, breach of security, dereliction of duty and failure to RTFF before hitting the streets.
Now that they are in the stew, they should at least post some trip reports so we can know which hookers to ask for.

Prostitutes being Investigated - RU Kidding Me?
This is getting to be quite an episode in DC. Apparently they located 20 girls from I. D.s left at the front desk. I wonder how much the chicas will charge the investigators for interview time. Next, they will access the guilty agents' computers to find out what they've been up to in other pre-visit "planning". I now think it is only a matter of time before the investigators discover that some of the agents are members of ISG, where they talked about previous exploits. Some of us may very well get interviewed to see if we have links to "organizations".
NYTimes: "Could they have planted bugs, disabled weapons, or in any others jeopardized security of the president or our country? ' Ms. Collins said she had asked of the Secret Service. 'Is there any evidence of previous misconduct by these or any other agents on other missions? Investigators believe that all of the Secret Service personnel met the women at the same bar, Mr. King said. Mr. King said that the investigators were seeking to determine whether the Secret Service personnel had gone out looking for prostitutes or whether they had met them at the bar, where they were drinking heavily."

The scandal involving members of the USA Secret Service partying with prostitutes is a boost for Cartagena's sex tourism industry, a local provider told local radio.
The anonymous sex tourims operator told undercover reporters of Caracol Radio that the USA Secret Service "helped my business a lot. The next day I received more than 20 emails."
He told the reporters that some of the girls who spent the night with USA officials came from the agency he promotes, which charges $2, 600 per day and advertises its services on internet.
He called the secret service agents "idiots" for also picking up girls from the streets and ending up in trouble over disputing the $47 payment.
"We charge per day because we pay the girls every 24 hours. Everything is settled beforehand, so that nobody is going to ask for money," one of the promoters of the sex tourism package said.
The scandal caused embarrassment for USA authorities and indignation in Colombia. However, for the sex tourism promoter, the scandal has become the perfect sales pitch.
"If it's good enough for the Secret Service, it's good for everybody," the sex tourism provider said.

Cartagena Working Girls
When I first heard about Cartagena Secret Service Prostitute Scandal everyone who knows I go there started calling me and having a laugh, I told them that the women are so beautiful in Cartagena that those straight laced Secret Service Agents couldn`t resist. That the Secret Service people never do hookers anywhere they go but just like me they couldn`t help themselves in Cartagena. I took it as a compliment that where I go is so great even these guys couldn`t resist the temptation of taking a hot paisa working girl home.
But I knew better, and as more and more details come out it`s obvious that these guys all 11 of them including the idiot that made the scene over money with the working girl were mongers. I guarantee that these guys every last one of them didn`t cross the line that night for their very first times. I`ve seen American Embassy guys in Electra, I`ve seen tons of service men in LDV when their boats were in port, all these guys are connected with all the branches of the military, who hasn`t seen sailors in every sex tourist destination in the world? I was watching an ex Secret Service guy on CNN tell Soledad O'brian that I know these guys and their families are devastated that these guys could fall to temptation and disgrace the secret service and dishonour their wives and families. He looked like a monger too.
What happened at the Caribe that night is that some Secret Service agent brought home your typical Colombian Hooker who by her very nature is WAY smarter than any other hooker in the world and he treated her like a Costa Rican or a Thai hooker and was convinced that she'd accept his measly $100 or whatever he thought they had originally agreed upon and he even made a scene trying to bully her into not ripping him-off. And she didn`t back down because she`s your typical Colombian Hooker who`s way smarter than all other types of hooker nationalities and even though $100 is a lot of money in Colombia it isn`t no where near the big score that a Colombian working girl dreams about fleecing from a dumb gringo. A dumb gringo who`s somehow associated with the American government staying at the Caribe and somehow associated with the president`s visit? You can imagine those 11 guys walking into the Pley Club. She was planning on spending the million pesos or more she was going to get out of him long before she ever got into the Caribe Hotel room with a Secret Service Agent who let all this get out of hand. She may not have known that he was Secret Service but she sure as hell could tell that this dumb gringo would never want to have a denuncia in the fiscalia.
Cartagena and Colombia have beautiful hookers but they ain't stupid they`re really smart and that`s why going there is so expensive, so stay away.
Remember, we`re all in this together,

It appears that the Secret Service agents were taking the term 'Walmart monger' to the extreme. According to NBC News, two agents tag teamed the prostitute but instead of paying her per penis fee of approximately $50 each they insisted on splitting the fee between them. This leads to some suspicion that may have been ISG members. LOL.

Secret service with Prepagos,
I quote,"CARTAGENA, Colombia. ABC News has learned exclusively that the Secret Service officials accused of misconduct in Colombia revealed their identities by boasting at a Cartagena brothel that they worked for President Obama.
Partying at the "Pley Club" Wednesday night, eleven members of the president's advance team allegedly bragged "we work for Obama" and "we're here to protect him."
The officials spent the night throwing back expensive whiskey and enlisting the services of the club's prostitutes, according to a bouncer at the club and a police source.
Sources tell ABC News several of the men agreed to pay for, and received, services from the "highest category" prostitutes available at the club, who charge upwards of $200. The group became belligerent and the police were called. The argument between the officials and the bouncers from the club escalated and ultimately spilled onto the street, according to several eye witness accounts.
The police have since been directed by USA authorities not to comment on that night or the scandal surrounding the Secret Service, according to a senior police official in Cartagena.
Prostitution is legal in Colombia and the women who work at the Pley Club live on the premises.
The club, located on a dusty street in the industrial Bosque neighborhood, just blocks from the port, has a rough exterior but boasts plush "pley rooms" inside.
The Pley Club is a well-known brothel in this historic city. Some taxi drivers in the resort-town are paid a commission for recommending the club and its prostitutes to tourists.
The officials were in Cartagena on assignment ahead of the president's visit for the Summit of the Americas last weekend.
The controversy surrounding the officials' misconduct, however, overshadowed the summit last week and local residents are questioning why the city put so many resources into the international event only to be left with a tarnished reputation.
"Cartagena didn't benefit one cent from President Obama's visit. All people remember are that the Secret Service agents slept with our prostitutes," said a man who works in the neighborhood."

[QUOTE=PeterHold;1270069]Hey guys, will go to Cartagena for one week and have some questions. Would be nice if you could answer them.[/QUOTE]1. Are there brothels (are the legal?) or can I just pick up girls in clubs and take them home?
[blue]Yes. There are brothels, but you are probably better off not going to a brothel. Typically, first time visitors to Cartagena hang out in the touristy areas areas around Bocogrande and the Old City. During the day, you are probably best off hanging out on the beach near Bocogrande while at night, many people head to a club called La Dolce Vita. It's least expensive if you rent an apartment for the week, in a building that is girl friendly. All the women in La Dolce Vita are sex workers. [/blue]
2. Do I normally go to the girls home or do I have to take them to my hostel?
[blue]If you need a place for a short time the girl will know of a cheap hotel nearby. [/blue]
3. Is it normally possible to take "guests" to a hostel and can I ask the hostel if its possible?
[blue]I don't expect a hostel is going to be friendly to the idea of girls coming to your room, but I don't know much about it. It probably makes more sense to pay for a cheap short term hotel room. [/blue]
4. You always talk of girls from the beach, what is the name of the beach, where I can find the girls?
[blue]Hollywood is the most notable section of Cartagena beach for girls. This is on the far side of Bocogrande. There are a couple of guys, Jason and Tony, who are often there, speak English, and will insist on finding you a girl. Jason is much easier to deal with than Tony. [/blue]
5. Where can I find the cheapest hookers? Beach, bars?
[blue]The least expensive girls work the streets. These girls can be very inexpensive. Generally, they don't come out till later in the night. [/blue]
6. What are normal prizes in Cartagena for an hour? I always read of 200k. Does that mean 200 dollar?
[blue]Cheaper girls are found inland in Colombia, the least expensive sex workers in Cartagena are found normally on the street, or more isolated / dangerous beaches, say, La Boquilla. 200k is 200, 000 Colombian pesos or about 112 dollars. With some game you might be able to cut this number in half. [/blue]
7. Do I have to ask the girls or do they come to me? And can I ask direct for sex?
[blue]You can always ask directly for sex, but this has never worked best for me. As my teacher used to say "You don't have to go leaping straight for the clitoris like a bull at a gate." Even if you are dealing with a sex worker it sometimes helps to dodge around the thing you want for a drink or two. Do you speak Spanish? [/blue]
8. How can I distinguish between hookers and normal girls?
[blue]You will know when she asks you about money. My sense from your questions is you will know a hooker immediately, because she will act differently than women you have known up to this point. [/blue]
9. Are there also normal girls looking for sex with a gringo?
[blue]Yes. You might find these girls working in the old city in various shops and stores. Since you do not have much time, you will need to either speak Spanish well, or have some natural charms working to your advantage. However, I hope you will not spend a lot of time pretending to fall for a nice girl, when you really just want to play sex tourist. On the other hand, your questions imply you are young and you might just be able to pull off a fun week, without needing to resort to any of the above insights. [/blue]

Legitimate Answers given to be given to US Immigration.
Where are you coming from?
Same country as Mr. Obama went recently.
How many days did you go for?
As many days as my dick could handle. No more No less.
What you do for Living?
I must be doing something right for me to pay the taxes so Secret Service Agent can go around the world on my tax payer money and have a Sex Party.
What were doing in Colombia?
Same thing what the US Secret Service was doing while visiting Colombia.
How much did you Spend in Colombia?
I spent enough to ensure not to get involved in a Sex Scandal.
Where is your Camera?
I gave it as a gift to the same girl who was with MR. Secret Agent. So next time when they visit her she can take a nice photo.
Once they start to give you a hard time just ask them one question.
How long did you get to interview those Secret Service Agents.
I am sick and tired of two different set of rules. If you look like foreign born American or Canadian these idiots at the Immigration start asking all weird question over and over. Last when they took me in for a 4 hour interview I just in the end told them straight up I went to Colombia to have a good time. I spent more then what you make in two months.
Next question they asked me is how much I paid in taxes last year. I told them it was none of their business as I am a Canadian travelling through USA to catch my next flight. All they tried to do is get me to miss my connecting flight. Therefore from that point onwards I personally avoid travelling through USA.
Thanks to Copa Airlines I get to fly at a reasonable ticket cost as well flying Toronto to Panama and then Panama direct to Medellin.
John.

More to investigate
If it is true, as alleged, that 21 prostitutes may have been involved, there is more to investigate. Why did the National Security Agency fail to detect all the cell chatter that must have been going on?
-
According to the news, a number of the agents are denying that they knew there girl was a prostitute. I really doubt that the agents could have pulled 21 girls all from the same club. Stands to reason to me that some must have met on or near the hotel. My point is that my original argument of an agent believing he found himself a freebie will probably hold true. Its easy for guys like us to know the reality of a situation but not necessarily for men have never used prostitutes or are not at all familiar with the natives.

From now on, if I tell colleagues in USA (and maybe out of them too) that I am going to spend 3-4 days in ctg, I will get mad eyes.
It is even possible that the local police will act in some way on clubs and freebies, attempting to "clean up" the place and restoring a good image of the place for families etc. I don't see anything good coming out from this.

They have been hooking in Cartagena since the pirates were in the Caribbean. Find a girl hooking there now and odds are her mother hooked there too. Nothing has changed over time there except for what is coming with the new big hotel chains in Bocagrande and then the construction of the boardwalk along the beach. Hell Tony has been pimping at the beach for 25 years you guys think prostitution is new there? It is a family town fuck thats funny!

She Wanted $800? Holy Crap!
News report says she expected $800 to be an escort.
[url]http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/19/world/americas/colombian-escort-speaks-about-secret-service-scandal.html[/url]
[quote]CARTAGENA, Colombia — A Secret Service agent preparing for President Obama's arrival at an international summit meeting and a single mother from Colombia who makes a living as a high-priced escort faced off in a room at the Hotel Caribe a week ago over how much he owed her for the previous night's intercourse. 'I tell him, 'Baby, my cash money, ' ' the woman said in her first public comments on a spat that would soon spiral into a full-blown scandal.

In Agent Scandal, Inquiry Leads to Colombian Bordellos (April 18, 2012)

The dispute — he offered $30 for services she thought they had agreed were worth 25 times that — triggered a tense early morning struggle in the hallway of the posh hotel involving the woman, another prostitute, Colombian police officers arguing on the women's behalf and American federal agents who tried but failed to keep the matter — which has shaken the reputation of the Secret Service — from escalating.
Sitting on a couch in her living room wearing a short jean skirt, high-heeled espadrilles and a tight spandex top with a plunging neckline, the woman described how she and a girlfriend were approached by a group of American men at a discotheque. In an account that tracked with the official version of events coming out of Washington, but could not be independently confirmed, she said the men bought a bottle of Absolut vodka for the table and when that was finished bought a second one.
'They never told me they were with Obama, ' she said. 'They were very discreet. '
A taxi driver who picked up the woman at the Hotel Caribe the morning of the encounter said he heard her and another woman recount the dispute over payment. When approached by The Times, the woman was reluctant to speak about what occurred. As she nervously told her story, a friend gave details that seemed to corroborate her account.
There was a language gap between the 24-year-old woman, who declined to give her full name, and the American man who sat beside her all night and eventually invited her back to his room. She agreed, stopped on the way to buy condoms but told him he would have to give her a gift. He asked how much. Not knowing he worked for President Obama but figuring he was a well-heeled foreigner, she said she told him $800.
The price alone, she said, indicates that she is an escort, not a prostitute. 'You have higher rank, ' she said. 'An escort is someone who a man can take out to dinner. She can dress nicely, wear nice makeup, speak and act like a lady. That's me. '
By 6:30 the next morning, after being awoken by a telephone call from the hotel front desk reminding her that, under the hotel's rules for prostitutes, she had to leave, whatever deal the two had agreed on had broken down. She recalled that the man told her he had been drunk when they discussed the price. He countered with an offer of 50, 000 pesos, the equivalent of about $30.
Disgusted with such a low offer, she pressed the matter. He became angry, ordered her out of the room and called her an expletive, she said.
She said she was crying at that point and went across the hall, where another escort had spent the night with a second American man from the same group. Both women began trying to get the money.
They knocked on the door but got no response. She threatened to call the police, but the man's friend begged her not to, saying they did not want trouble. Finally, she said, she left to go home but came across a policeman who was stationed on the hallway and called in an English-speaking colleague.
He accompanied her back to the room and the dispute escalated. Two other Americans from the club emerged from their rooms and stood guard in front of their friend's locked door. The two Colombian officers tried to argue the woman's case.
A hotel security officer arrived. Eventually, she lowered her demand to $250, which she said was the amount she has to pay the man who helps find her customers. Eager to resolve the matter fast, the American men eventually gave her a combination of dollars and local currency worth about $225, and she left.
It was only days later, once a friend she had shared her story with called to say that the dispute had made the television news, that she learned that the man had been a Secret Service agent.
She was dismayed, she said, that the news reports have described her as a prostitute as though she walked the streets picking up just anyone.
'It's the same but it's different, ' she said, indicating that she is much more selective about her clients and charges much more than a streetwalker. 'It's like when you buy a fine rum or a BlackBerry or an iPhone. They have a different price. '
The woman veered between anger and fear as she told of her misadventure. 'I'm scared, ' she said, indicating she did not want the man she spent the night with to get into any trouble but now feared that he might retaliate against her.
'This is something really big, ' she said. 'This is the government of the United States. I have nervous attacks. I cry all the time. '
The Secret Service declined to comment on the woman's account. Among the issues under review is whether the security personnel went out that night looking for prostitutes or whether they encountered them where they had been drinking.
'There was no evidence that these women were seeking these guys out — that they were waiting for Secret Service agents, but all of that is being looked into, ' said Representative Peter T. King, the chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.
Mr. King, who was briefed on the matter by Mark Sullivan, the Secret Service director, said that the Secret Service agents at the hotel had provided conflicting reports about the night's events.
'Some of them were saying they didn't know they were prostitutes, ' he said. 'Some are saying they were women at the bar. I understand that there was quite a bit of drinking. '
As for cooperating with the American investigators who are seeking to interview as many as 21 different women who they believe may have spent the night with American security officers in advance of Mr. Obama's arrival, the woman who was involved in the payment dispute said she was not interested in that. She said she was planning to leave Cartagena soon.[/QUOTE]

Epic Center:
A pair of Obama SS agent expected a group discount rate 2 for 1at100, 000 COP ($50. 00) from the chica. Chica reported it to the police in the lobby as lack of payment. Rest still under question.
Other factors in play too.

Begin rant: Unfortunately, some (too many?) of my countrymen who visit Colombia do not think discretion, respect and local customs, etc, apply to them while there. I don't like stereotypes or to make broad sweeping generalizations, but it has unfortunately become quite obvious that many of us guys from the States who monger in Colombia are complete arrogant assholes who don't give a hoot about local customs; don't know how to be discrete; constantly gossip and run our mouths while there; are loud and obnoxious with our foul language in places that aren't the men's locker room; feel that the local rules are for locals; brag, brag and brag some more about how (pick something) etc, etc, and then after bragging about how great we are and how much money we make; well of course we want to pay as little as possible for pussy so we can brag about that as well.

Quality hookers demanding $250 minumum?
Have prices really gone up that much in Cartagena? When I was there in 96-97 the very top shelf beautiful strippers from places like American Nights (if I remember the name correctly) wanted $140 or $160 to leave for the night, room included. Of course brothel girls or girls picked up in night clubs were much less.

Questions about these SS agents. 1- don't these idiots make about 100k after a few years? Why so cheap. 2-Why would they argue with these girls knowing their position. Just suck it up, and give her the money she wanted. Chalk it up as a learning experience. Pride aint worth losing a 100k job 3- do you think these girl are being questioned for 10 hours on if the ss agents told them any confidential info. 4- This girl could sell her story for a mint. Why is she crying. I would be laughing all the way to the bank.

There are alot of dumb posts by guys here that say the same thing: "what these guys do on their own time is their biz". Not true. There is something called BLACKMAIL. When the guy said he works for Obama, they are compromising the president. As worthless as Obama is, you don't want cartel members trying to get info about where Obama will be. Hell, they could have kidnapped one of them and tortured them unless they told where Obama was going to be staying. I know these are far fetched ideas, but you can't put yourself in that situation. They are not normal citizens.

Girl Prices in Colombia.
I think I am going to go out on a limb here. I have never been asked more then 600 mil which equates to about $ 350 or so. In my experience girls much better looking then this photos shown, I am talking like drop dead gorgeous girls can be had in Colombia for like 400 mil to max of 500 mil for all night starting from like 9 pm to 8 am the next morning.
I am paying two very very beautiful girls some good money and taking them to San Andres for a 3 day trip at a price of like $ 500 each for a 3 day trip. Of course their are more expenses for me to fly them to San Andres and other Hotel expenses too, but these same girls agree to 500 mil all night.
Yes many of us will think that even $250 or so is also very very high for all night but to me that is worth the price if the girls are complete model figure 10's.
Regards,
John.

USA media loves sex scandals
WOW. Over 75 posts on the subject of the S. S. Prostitution scandal! But this is the right forum for this discussion, and the level of knowledge displayed here is impressive. ISG should be required reading for S. S. Men as part of their training.
What bugs me is the amount of attention that this scandal has gotten in the mainstream media. From the N. Y. Times to the tabloids, etc.
Before the scandal hardly any one in USA knew that president Obama was traveling to Cartagena. Even today most people don't know or care to know what were the important issues being discussed there or what was the outcome of the meeting. It's a shame!
I read some of the latinamerican newspapers on the internet, and noticed that the scandal has gotten some attention, but did not overshadow the other important news about the meeting.

Law and Ethics

Looking at it from the other side.
As I see this scandal in the headlines in both gringo and latino media, I can't help but think of all the chicas who have told their families in the past that they've gone to Cartagena to work as waitresses or in a hotel, club, etc. Surely somewhere in Colombia, some suspicions have been raised. And any chica thinking of going to CTG now maybe thinking twice about it, or will have to be even more creative with the little white lies.
OTOH, I've met a lot of chicas who said that their families already know. I wonder about the fate of Pleyclub or LDV in some moralistic backlash. However, the urge for $ is so great in CO, and the urge for cX0Cha as well, that it'll probably be business as usual.
I've been there so many times I've actually made some nice connections with a few normal locals, but I'm waiting a long time before I go back. And I feel bad for the good people of CTG now that it has now become synonymous with mongering.

I see several people are worrying about what kind of backlash there might be in Colombia against hookers and brothels. Haha, don't worry, in Latin America it's ALWAYS going to be business as usual. It's part of the culture.
But looking at the photos of the $800 chica in question. She definitely does not look top shelf. Mid level material with fake boobs, a thick body, and coarse features. Either she was trying to take advantage of a guy too drunk to use common sense and thinking with the little head, or she thought this gringo was Daddy Warbucks and $80 or $800 was all the same to him.

[QUOTE=Gonzo; 1271331]As I see this scandal in the headlines in both gringo and latino media, I can't help but think of all the chicas who have told their families in the past that they've gone to Cartagena to work as waitresses or in a hotel, club, etc. Surely somewhere in Colombia, some suspicions have been raised. And any chica thinking of going to CTG now maybe thinking twice about it, or will have to be even more creative with the little white lies.

They tell their families they are going on "Vacation" then go there to make money. My 2nd trip to Medellin in 1999 a girl's mother told me to visit Cartagena, I said what? Travel Planet says beaches suck etc. She said," Oh you would like it!" with a shit ass grin on her face, I had no idea what she was talking about at the time, Medellin was insane then no need to go to Cartagena. Now that I look back I wish I would have went.
You guys don't quite understand why the Colombians wanted to bust them, the US government looks down their noses as the moral posted child but yet all the drugs go there. Then the Colombians tell the USA to quit snorting and smoking the stuff and we wouldn't have a problem here. Then this happens with Hookahs! Hilarious. The Goody goodies got busted. Now it seems they found drugs in a guys room the lid is ready to blow off.
Conflicting stories about where the girl came from, I doubt the girl works ar Pleyclub typically only 5-7s there, taxi driver says she was private escort, in time one of you will come up with the agency name.

Pricing Issues.
Again this board keeps on going about prices. Money is always a relative term my friend. As I have always believed.
Do you think people who pay 3 times more money for a little bigger seat in an airline to fly first class are all insane. After all the airline gets you to the same location your flight time is many times no more then 5 hours. So why pay $1, 000 for a flight when you can pay only $250 for it and still get to the same location in the same 5 hour time. In some instances people are willing and able to pay $5, 000 for a first class airline ticket instead of paying like $1, 500 for flight flying economy.
My friend I am sure you will not call all those people insane for paying for a little extra comfort.
Money is a relative term and to each his own.
I will not post photos of the girls on this board but for those of you who honestly feel like they are willing and able to spend 200 mil for like 2 to 3 hour session and 400 mil to 500 mil for all night you can send me a PM and I will send the photos to you.
By the way the photos of the girl posted who was with the SS agent, I am willing to pay that quality girl no more then 150 mil for 2 hours and 300 mil for all night just for your reference.
Best Regards,
John.

Padded bar bills
It took me a while to learn my lesson, but after being over charged when I asked for my final bar bill I learned to pay for each round right away. I remember one time in one of the higher end bars (Isis) getting a bill for lady drinks that the guys I was with did not order. Yes they were talking to a few girls, but
I know they did not OK any drink orders. Two of the 3 guys I was with were young, and of good size so it was not hard to walk away from the bouncer who tried to Bogart us into being ripped off.
As far as the SS ruining CTG to me that place is overpriced anyway so let them keep it for people like the clueless SS goons.

Yesterday, the New York Times interviewed one of the Colombian escorts whose services were paid for by a Secret Service agent during last week's Summit of the Americas in Cartagena. She felt that she'the been portrayed as a typical streetwalking prostitute, and she insisted that her own approach to the oldest profession is much more up to date:
'It's the same, but it's different, ' she said, indicating that she is much more selective about her clients and charges much more than a streetwalker. 'It's like when you buy a fine rum or a BlackBerry or an iPhone. They have a different price. '
In Colombia, where I'm from, these escorts are called prepagos, or 'prepaid women, ' a phenomenon that exploded in Colombia in the late '90s. After inciting some mild outrage, the term and the profession quickly infiltrated popular culture. The popular perception in Colombia is that prepagos don't do it out of necessity; the escort involved with an agent was charging about $800 for the night—or $1. 6 million pesos, an especially large sum in Colombia.
Many of these escorts have professional websites and popular Twitter accounts. They take credit cards and offer free delivery. Often they come from affluent families and have been to college, which they market as a prized and rare asset. One of the websites, Las Universitarias, or 'College Girls' (that link is not safe for work, in case you had any doubt) , whose slogan is 'beauty and culture in bed, ' offers the option to translate the site into English. These services are offered mostly in larger cities like Bogotá, Cali, and Medellíand; prostitution in more remote areas is much more driven by displacement due to poverty or violence. (Colombia has the second largest population of internally displaced people in the world, behind Sudan.)
The infrastructure behind the prepago industry is massive and problematic, with ties to both corporate and drug money. Telenovelas about escorts and drug lords, like Sin Tetas No Hay Paraíso (No Heaven Without Tits) , have proliferated in Colombia in recent years, gathering huge audiences. Drugs are Colombia's curse, and beauty, especially feminine beauty, is an obsession in Colombian culture—even more so than it is in the United States. Colombia is known to be a plastic surgery haven, where children as young as 14 get breast implants. Miss Universe and Miss Colombia are the most watched shows on TV year-round; soccer matches are their only real competition. It is not uncommon for finalists of the Miss Colombia pageant to go straight into jobs as newscasters.
Prepagos have become enormously popular in Colombia, and there is little public shame in the country about what they do. Women from all socioeconomic backgrounds prostitute themselves for a wide range of reasons, which are constantly changing. It's in this context that high-paid escorts, flaunting their wares on professional websites and on Twitter, thrive.

I ponder
I have seen much better and classier looking women available for much less than the $800. 00 quoted. Just me thinking, but it might be possible the media heard 800, but perhaps it was 800K instead of dollars. I have been to Cartagena and Bogota many times and the girls at Ottos, Lalos and La Mansion are very top notch and they could top out at around 500K with agreement around 350K. Just a thought, it would not be the first time the media exaggerated to make the story even more sensational.
I just got back before the SS arrived in town and I am ready to head back. Friends really want to hear my adventures about Cartagena and I have to tell them $800 would price me out of the market and I have yet run into anybody trying to set me up with a 14 year old. I counter back to them by asking hey I heard you went to Vegas, or LA, or Chicago, New York, Atlanta, Miami. There are many hookers and high priced girls in those cities and everyone knows it."How did you score with them, any pictures?" How much, etc. Point being, it happens all over the world, but perception is 100% reality to many.
I can keep my grin at work and think about the City of Cartagena and remember those that I have paid and those that I had for free (thanks to my wife). It gets me through the week.

My wingman last September met up with a ISIS favorite he has been with on previous trips and was 150k pesos for short time in 2009-10. He hooked up with her in apartment thinking he would spend the week with her. She wanted 4 or 500 dollars per day plus expenses, needless to say he sent her back to ISIS. She went hard core on him. No idea who is paying this much other than the dumb gringo I met who paid the fat chic 400 dollars for sex and cock blocked me from big foot.

Couple of words on pricing. This March from my experience: ST 50K to 100K, TLN 100K to 150K.
Takeout from where you take girls out is 150K. If you don't ask or negotiate then girls charge 200K per hour.
What happened is totally insane and is not about money.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I call bullshit. That chica is not a "model", looks more like a typical La Dolce Ho that gets 150-300 depending on how weak the buyer is. From the beach. 120-150, 000. Now you will see her in Playboy and she will get her little bit of fame. Cartagena is probably overrun by idiot gringoes that will either try to get free pussy based on how pretty they are to coked up rich boys that like to spend mucho $ to impress the girls. Next you will see Tony on the front page sayin "yu no trusta me, me frieeen". I am going back today (live there) , probably will head to Cali, too much junkie drama in Cartagena. 7-8 tyears ago I saw some REAL models in Bogota, asking price then was 1, 000, 000 and up. No, didn't do it, all were silicaned, not what I like.

A word to the wise
How long will it be before Dateline, 20/20, or 60 minutes does an hour long "investigative report" into the prostitution in Cartagena? That's the normal chain of events when a news topic is this hot. I already saw one clip showing some girls walking up the stairs to LDV, and 2-3 gringos standing nearby. Do you want that to be you? When they take their hidden cameras inside PleyClub or any other monger joint to talk to the girls and give everyone an inside look, do you want to be one of the guys inside?
Try explaining that one to your wife, family, friends, co-workers. Think with the bighead for once guys.

Some Man Listen to their Wife.
My friend, mongering is an addiction. It starts off slowly and then it becomes a way of life. You are better off without it.
Don't worry rest of us will make sure that Colombian Women are taken care off without you. LOL.
But Honestly, I am in same shoes as you are but I find a way. You have to be creative enough. The art in this matter is not to make it a big deal at all.
If you think too much about your travels to Colombia you will never be able to do so. I don't know which line of work you are in, but think of a way that a trip can be justified in a work related atmosphere. Their are many other cities in Colombia which have better options for Women like Medellin.
Lastly, if you absolutely have to tell your wife where you are travelling to then you are better off not cheating on her. As their is a good chance she will find out eventually and then you will have to explain.
IMHO, mongers who are married live in a fantasy world thinking their wives don't know what their men are up to. If you are married to some one for more then 5+ years they can tell just by looking at your facial expression as to what you are thinking. It is not that women don't know what us men are doing but in my opinion many women knowingly look the other way.

My how times have changed.
If my memory serves me right on the night before JFK was killed some of his SS men were drunk in a night spot in Texas. If you have watched the event you can see the first person to react to the attack was the First Lady, not the SS. Nothing was done to them. Now before the President was to appear there is a problem with a girl in CTG, and all hell breaks loose. I guess a scandel before a election is worse than a President getting zapped.
BTW Many the times I have had a problem with service from a SW, but I just bit the bullet, and paid her off. I do this without even a top secret clearance to protect.

I don't know what pisses me off more: the fake moral outrage that the MSM continues to fuelatthis story (see the linked article) or the fact that USSS agents were STUPID enough to turn an everyday transaction in CO into an international firestorm! It's fuckin unreal that SS guys w / all their trainin & the intel that they have access to, couldn't figure out how to discretely score trim in CTG! And how much do they pay these cats that they had to pool what was in their pockets in order to make the chica leave? BTW, since when don't military guys know what to do w / CTG chicas? I can remember visitin one of the casas on my first trip down there & the place bein packed w / off-duty soldiers.
I could go on & onatamazingly dumb this incident was, but what really sickens me is that how the media manages to somehow attack prostitution be / see of it! This article somehow brings up the exploitation of minors, yet the SS situation of course only involves adult chicas that all left their cedulas w / hotel security! What's so fuckin 'embarrassin'atthe primary source of economic independence for single women in that & many other countries around the world. In 2012 the general population is still makin a big deal out of guys seein workin girls in a country where the shit is perfectly legal – really?
I do get the point that this is an issue be / see these guys were in the country to prepare for the POTUS' arrival. But the funny thing is that if they had done some diligence on the CTG P4P scene, they could have gotten their rocks off before AF1 landed & avoided makin the POTUS look bad.

First, the one I wanted could not show up. I was waiting about 1 h. In Zona Norte. Then they sent the one called Dina, supposed to be top of the line. She smelled worse than any hooker I have ever met! I had to send her away with unfinished business.
I think you have to play hard with these guys if you order.
I prefer LDV or Isis. If not, the good alternatives are in the port. (Donde R, e. G.)

Things change
To change to the Topic!
Just got back from my tenth trip to Cartagena, over the past 10 years; but the last one was about two years ago. Noticed a lot of changes!
I've had a lot of our members such as David and Roger help me along so I thought I'll pass on some of my own:
There are a lot of new Hotels being built now-to be ready in the next couple of years-many 5 star type like the Sheritan and International. New Law where you cannot rent Condo's in the best buildings is now in effect. Can always find some in condo-hotels in Laguito or Palmetto in Boccagrande. The Chicas are asking for mucho dinero at LDV; which I refused to give. Finally found a few more reasonable ones towards closing time. Also after midnight across from Tu Candela. These were my two best spots. Tony at the beach is ripping off tourists like candy. Such a Scumbag. You're better off taking a walk along the beach and picking up. Picked up a couple of gems just walking around Boccagrande in the afternoon. My chicas were sensational; nothing compares to the latins!
This last trip I stayed in a shit hole condo in Laquito although it had a great view and close to LDV I would never stay there again.
I would definitely recommend two other good, chica friendly hotels:
1. The Lee Hotel in the Old City is really good. At less than $100 and about a 3* plus its the best bargain around. Clean and Airy rooms with a small pool and patio on the roof. Its minutes from the downtown Old City core by foot and you walk by the University and Park where many a student are looking to make a few bucks to cover expenses.
2. The Orr Hotel is about 3 months old and is easily a 4 * plus. Its 3 blocks from the beach and a 3 minute cab ride from LDV. Its got a small Pool and Patio and you can bring guests there. Its perfect for partying. Its also got a Hot tub and Breakfast is included all for about $135 p night.
I met the owner Al and he was very helpful and spoke perfect English. I told him he should contact Jackson about advertizing his places (and he also has a 5* place). He said he would and consider giving Members a discount. Until he gets it up, sic. If you bbm me I'll send you his email.
Also, got stopped once for a spot check but no problems; as I don't do drugs and the chica had proper I'd.
Have Fun and Stay Safe!

Starting times?
I would appreciate any info someone experienced can give. I am heading to Cartagena today and would like to know around what time is good to go to some of the places? I know Elektra only opens after 3am, LDV after midnight, but how about Tu Candela? The normal bars Cafe del Mar and Casa de la cerveza? Also where is the place to go in the early evening, around 8pm? Thanks for the info and will write a report when I get back. Any additional info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Tony? Tony Montana? Hahaha. Hes just a fool. What kind of scam does he have running now? Please let me know.
I personally recommend Donde R. They have great selection and good prices. And no bullshit. Its a *****house, simple as that. LDV and Isis is OK, too, but you must know your way around. Max. 100t is what I pay.
Having lived in C for about 2 years and speaking Spanish since childhood it is easier, despite my "Gringo" looks.

I wouldn't get to Tu Candela much before midnight especially these days when it's been particularly quiet. It closes at 3. 30am.
LDV: don't arrive before 11. 30pm IMO.
Elektra: 3. 30am. If you arrive at 3 on the dot it'll be you and the doorman.
I've never been to Cafe Del Mar as early as sunset, but I'd guess it's peak hours are around midnight. It's a difficult place to pick up, however.

The hooker scandal. Get your facts straight.
[QUOTE=Mr Gogo;1272683]She was in charge of South America operations, a 20 year veteran. Could she have squash it? Maybe. Should she had risked her career for some dumb horny assed agents? No. From my understanding she ordered the agents home, which was a good call, but I don't think she went public with that. It somehow was leaked and the press got a hold of it. The agents should have pooled some money and ended it at the hotel.[/QUOTE]FYI. The other agents DID put together money to give to the hooker. $255 USD, more than enough. She told the media that the agent "owed her $800". A ridiculous sum for any South American hooker, and way outside the CTG price range, as we all know. She's probably lying. Probably she pulled one of the common prostitute price scams. Negotiating the price in the local currency up front, then demanding to be paid in US dollars afterwards.
You're just speculating on whether the female SS superior acted against the Cartagena agents just to protect her position. Maybe she acted because she is an American woman, and that she was guided by the typical woman's attitude regarding men and hookers. In the past, when the chain of command in the SS was all male, prostitution incidents did not lead to scandals. In the past, male SS superiors chose a different response to prostitution reports. SS agents have done this before, many times, just more discreetly. They are just now reporting that SS agents went to strip clubs and partied with women in El Salvador, and also in Russia 12 years ago.
They did a story on the female SS supervisor. Turns out it was a judgement call, regulations did not demand that the agents be sent home for that kind of behavior. Also, they were part of the advance team. NOT the actual agents who protect the president.
They are now issuing a new SS standards and ethics policy. Even now the policy does not expressly forbid the patronizing of hookers. The rules "prohibit any foreign nationals from entering an agent's hotel room" and bans "patronization of non-reputable establishments." Drinking is still allowed while an agent is off duty, but not within ten hours of an assignment.

The agents pooled their money AFTER they tried to bully the situation and it didn't work. The agents stood guard at the agents room and refused to let hotel security enter (look it up). Their tactics had probably worked many times before but not this time. When hotel security got involved they could have paid her off for 100 USD, but AFTER their bully tactics didn't work and the police arrived then the agents pooled their money Sir. She probably did try to scam the agents but I'm not going to give the agents a pass and blame everyone else as you have.
We can all speculate about the female agent motives, but she covered her ass. Maybe she doesn't follow the " Good ole boys rule" but the agents should have never put her in a position to make that call. The board has moved on beyond this story, and so should we.

[QUOTE=Schmwrr 1; 1274439].

Just send them a personal message. You will have yourself the guide of all guides.
I will be leaving here on the first part of the week for Aruba, but returning to Cartagena and El Rodadero the middle of May with a couple other members from the board here, so more good times will definitely be had. Let the party continue.[/QUOTE]Schmwrr, Brother you actually had a post make it through? Could be the start of something nice! Hahahahaha NO WAY!

You also need to take some of the weight
[QUOTE=Schmwrr 1; 1274813]Great idea MiamiHeatLuver! I have no problem if someone wants to send me a p. M, maybe you should! But the fact of the matter is if someone is on a tight budget, but likes to party hard in bars / discos and so forth, the cities of Medellin and Cali would be a much better option for them, as Cartagena is very expensive, where as in Medellin or Cali you would be paying very close to 50 percent less for everything, girls, lodging, food in nice restaurants, and so forth.
A big benefit for anyone going to Medellin or Cali to find those paisa, calena lovers, in addition to saving a lot of money from what they would be spending in Cartagena, is they would get the best in guide services from you or Reefski, as both of you are very open to providing them walking tours, tours to the country side, and being a great information source for a newbee. Both of you are possibly the most helpful members on the entire Colombia board. With having either one of you providing guide services, the newbees will not have to be carrying around maps and papers with little notes on them.
Just came up to my condo to get another bottle of my Crown Royal Whiskey so the party can continue on the beach as the beach is filled with girls today, and the girls are feeling the effects of the whiskey and are getting wild and crazy! Fun times![/QUOTE]All well and good for you to pawn off those guys on other members. It would not hurt for you to share some of your coveted Crown Royal with guys less fortunate than you. Also all those Chicas from your private stock to share would also be a good deed for you to do. Who knows some day you may also be a broken down Monger like those two guys from North Carolina I saw you foot the bill for in CTG.

To you español speakers
At 12:48 or thereabouts, does she say that the agents managed to come up with the entire $800, or not? Later on she makes it clear that she only got $250, so I will go with that. This is a worthwhile interview, by the way.

The interview
The interview is very well done by the interlocutor, I don't have his name right now. There is a very powerful portion at 47 minutes of Part 2, where Dania is asked what separates a prostitute from a something higher and different, a different sort of sex worker.

It was obvious she was holding out on a lot of details and lying also. Like the fact that she and her friends were just out for a drink at a regular bar. Uh huh that's right she's not a hooker.

I agee with ricker
I am getting tired of this woman. How do we know he only offered 30 dollars? Why was the embassy called? Normally incidents like these are handled discreetly, yet the embassy was called? Once she was paid, that should have been the end of the matter. For obvious reasons the SS has gone silent so we only have one side and she was on nbc today bragging she could have stolen state secrets
800 freaking dollars for an average looking hooker, give me a break. There's more to this story
-
Your questions are fair but the answers are well known
$800 and "more to the story". Dania Suarez confirmed just this week that there is indeed more to the story. She has representation and will reveal all exclusively to the highest bidder. What comes out will probably be fact checked carefully because whoever gets to publish will have to pay big money. There is a bidding war. About the $800. I think we all know the price is insane but we all also know nothing is off limits in Tony-land. She probably would have accepted market rate but the agents broke rule number one. They did not make a deal in advance. They broke other rules later, like not cutting their losses and paying to get rid of the girl. I think they all agree with that now, but it's too late for them now.
The embassy involvement. I do'nt see what's confusing about the embassy being brought in when local law enforcement discovered Secret Service agents were involved.

I wonder if the Arabic Monger that took her to Dubai has any "pics" of her. If he does he should sell it quick and now to get the most money before she does Desnudos everywhere and pics can be gotten for free.

This entire debate is freaking hilarious! If Chica did ask for $800, you know who is to blame? All of the guys who like being played like boo boo the fool, paying $100 $200 or more for ST with a Prostitute in a country where the average income is less then $400 a month is insane.
Every time I am in Latin America, some jerk off is trying to hit me up with the so called Gringo tax, and I refuse to pay, so I ask myself, why on God's green earth are these boo boo's willing to self-imposing the tax upon themself. Thank God Colombia is a big country.
Then one guy here wants to compare paying 200 bucks for a Clombian hooker, to flying first class, I bet that same guy would pay $1800 for a first class ticket on United as opposed to paying $500 for the same first class ticket on Copa.

Just picturing her trying to be classy while having a cock in her mouth on a daily basis. That being said we all agree that this dumbshit really screwed up when he negotiated if he did at all. One commentary I got from the Argentina section that should be in mind of us all I wish to share.
"If you go along with what she asks, she'll think you're weak and / or a dumbshit, and she'll give you service accordingly. Bargaining (of course always in a friendly manner) establishes respect. And respect is key to getting good treatment from women (pro or non-pro)"
"In my mongering experience, the few times I've paid the chick's asking price, the experience has ended up being bad. I think it's a matter of respect. If you just give in and pay what she wants, she thinks you're a loser, and will treat you as such. If you bargain with her (but in a congenial way) she will respect you more, and will give you a better experience. Women (including pros) don't like pushovers."
From Daddy Rulz: "The way chicas respect strong men and hold weakness in contempt is a subject that can never be overstated. If you have her thinking she needs to impress you to get the dollars, then you're half way to a good fuck for less money. If on the other hand she senses blood in the water like the perfect predator she is, you're chum."
Enough said!

Soooo much bullshit
I have tried to not fan the flames of the ridiculous info that has come from this ho and some of the comments made. You are listening to some taxi drivers and an "average" ho's insights into what this fiasco is about. She is at best a 200, 000 peso ho that most would turn down since she is far from a model type. She tried to screw the guys in question money wise and they are not in a position to reply because of their job. So, all the brilliant minds are using this ho's and some money grabbin lawyers, and some taxi drivers, comments to base what really happened. This kind of bullshit has also happened to other foolish mongers in many countries before. This chica was in lala land if she thought anybody in their right mind would pay her more than 300, 000, even drunken gringoes.

This agent was drunk as shit. Thats why there was a problem. I actually agree with the girl. I think she said 800 for all night and he agreed. Not really knowing what he agreed to until he was sober. When you are a ss agent, you have a new mongering rule most don't have: NEVER drink and monger. He threw away a 100k year job to protect the dumbest most unqualified president ever.

I am curious. Why add the last sentence in a post? It's just an invitation for an unproductive and divisive political discussion. Let me simply suggest that we don't allow the unfortunate inclusion of a political opinion to start a shit storm. Just to balance the table, some feel that our president is the smartest and most qualified president ever.

Ditto.
According to several surveys, both Obama and Romney are currently earning about 45% support.

My guess is that our President's IQ and training, including school, is WELL above most posting. Since I know there is no prejudice involved wonder what those statements are based on. Yeah, shit storm it is. If it wasn't for the SS shit and mansion groupies there wouldn't be mant posts on Colombia.

Okay. 90k after 5 years and 95k after 10 years. Bonuses for speaking other languages. If you apply at 25, you're making 90k at 30yo. Not bad work if you can get it.

"sex tourist" status
Not to lengthen this discussion but there is one thing to consider:
Once the girl made a ruckus, there was no way the agent (s) could pay her. No agent can actively engage in "sex tourism" (actually no American can under Bush administration regulations that I think are still in effect) , so once she got loud and management came, etc, the men would have lost their jobs FOR SURE by paying. Most likely, he, and / or they, just played dumb claiming there was no offer for pay for play. It could have worked. But paying her in front of others or when others would have known she was paid for sex would have had only one result. The guy (s) would have known that by playing dumb and hoping to ride it out at least there was a chance at surviving.
I just say this because people keep saying "just pay the girl" but we do not know exactly when outsiders got involved. But we know outsiders were involved making it impossible for the man / men to pay her at some point.
Their cardinal sin was telling people they were SS. In the military it is called compromising yourself. They were compromised the moment people knew who they were.

Is no such law for sex tourism, Bill Clinton made one for 18 year old age requirement, the Bush administration enforced a type of crackdown on pedephiles but sex tourism is not illegal for US residents.

What the officers did here was not sex tourism in the sense of going to a specific destination for the primary purpose of sex. The problem was that they was on a work assignment and that, presumably, the hotel room was being paid for by the US government on a US government credit card and that they were supposed to conduct themselves in a way that would reflect creditably on their employer. Presumably the US government has not authorized the use of the room for paid sexual entertainment.
Anyway, I imagine that everyone at the top level in the US govt. Is having a good laugh about this, while pretending to be outraged. What could Obama really say?"Hey it was just a few guys letting off steam out of working hours. I know them, they are good guys. Let it be."
No, I don't think so. Probably when he heard about this he said:"Those stupid, idiotic, f*ing assholes. Fire the c***s before someone says they were scoping out the talent for me."

Edit not allowed?
I am busy partying in the Caribbean.
Anyway, as I told Jackson, the system would not let me make a correction to my last post for some reason. The edit button was there but it would not work.
I could have re-posted but was tired of typing on the IPHONE. The small buttons, which caused me to send before clarifying a point, tire me out.
Since then I have had little interest in this thread, as most of it is about the ex-prostitute anyway, and had forgotten about the post.
Verify with Jackson that I attempted to edit post but was denied.
Have fun guys LOL!
Sex tourism is alive in well, but it seems NOBODY is engaging in it, anymore in Cartagena!

Dania deserves a medal
This is a very long thread and I haven't read every post, so I don't know if this has been said: President Obama should give Dania the prostitute a medal. She uncovered what was a very weak side of the S. S. I truly believe that this was not an isolated case, rather a habit for some agents. If a terrorist group had known how easy it was to get the agents drunk out of their minds while on a mission, and then infiltrate their rooms, they could have raised havoc by having a spy pose as a prostitute, and go from there. Well not any more, there are new rules in place and there is awareness of this issue, so it will not happen in the future. Dania has saved the president's ass! Or at least avoided an even more embarrassing incident of terrorist infiltrating the S. S.

Nobody was going to infiltrate anything.
In general, for protective visits, teams of Secret Service personnel travel in advance and conduct site surveys, which assess needs for manpower, equipment, hospitals and evacuation routes for emergencies. Fire, rescue and other public service personnel in the community are alerted.
Before a protectee arrives at any site, a lead advance agent coordinates all law enforcement representatives participating in the visit. Intelligence information is discussed and emergency options are outlined. Prior to the arrival of the protectee, checkpoints are established and access to the secured area is limited.

Since we are still on this topic here is my two pesos.
[quote]WASHINGTON — Several small groups of Secret Service employees separately visited clubs, bars and brothels in Colombia prior to a visit by President Barack Obama last month and engaged in reckless,"morally repugnant" behavior, Sen. Susan Collins says.[/quote](note it is a woman speaking.)
[quote]Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, the committee's chairman, said,"I want to hear what the Secret Service is doing to encourage people to report egregious behavior when they see it.[/quote](This fuck should go away)
[quote]Prostitution is legal in Colombia, but Sullivan quickly issued new guidelines that made it clear that agents on assignment overseas are subject to USA laws.[/quote](US Laws? It is legal in Nevada also.)
[quote]This week the Drug Enforcement Administration said the Justice Department's Office of the Inspector General was investigating possible misconduct by two or more agents in Colombia. Collins revealed that the case involved at least two DEA employees who entertained female masseuses in the Cartagena apartment of one of the DEA agents.[/quote](Lets just cut all govenment employes dicks off, that should solve this terrible problem. Better yet let the president stay in the USA where he belongs.)

Soooo. Now Sen. Collins has "broad brushed" mongers as "morally repugnant" and "isn't that special" and might give anyone out there who identifies with these Secret Service agents the "warm fuzzies"! LOL!
It also, IMO, didn't help matters that the supervisor of said "monger agents" was a woman. Go figure!

You can easily find girls around the beach after 12 noon, do yourself a favor and rent a condo, don't stay in a hotel, this is not like Sosua in DR. You can easily rent a nice one bedroom condo for 75. Or less per night.

There is a slew of budget Hotels near the Smaller Olympica look at the map under Budget Hotels, I wouldn't even bother with reservations if that is what you want for 40 a night range. As Youcan said beach girls, don't pay more than 100k pesos offer about 80k relize alot of LDV and Isis girls moonlight here by day for half price, sit in your cabana like you would hunt, just watch what is coming by and assume they are all working girls in Playa Hollywood. Read the fricking map it is in order of importance from top down.
If you can swing 60 or more per night try Juan Ventura for an apartment. [url]http://www.venpro.net/fotosapartamentos/english.htm[/url]

Spent a week in CTG back in May. Thought I'd post some info that will pretty much just confirm the status quo. Was slow (typical for May) , which was okay for me, but I did run into a couple of guys who wished that there were more people, choices, etc. I stopped in LDV once on a weekday around 1:30 or 2:00 a. M. Maybe 20-25 chicas and 5-10 hombres. Plenty of doable chicas, and plenty looking a little anxious for a customer. Met a chica from Cali as she and her friend were about to leave for Electra. Caught up with them at Electra; shared a pizza and some dancing, etc. Electra was slow as well. 10-15 chicas from LDV and 10-15 chicas from other places or had already left LDV before I got there and I just didn't recognize them. Mixture of chicas I've seen in the past year (saw some faces I recognized, but now with bigger boobs, LOL) and chicas who have arrived town in the past several months. Pricing, same as it's been for the past 4 years or so, which can vary based on the chica, the hombre, that evenings supply vs demand, s / t, TLN, etc, etc.
Playa Hollywood was slow as well. Spent 3 afternoons there just relaxing, drinking some brews, etc. Really wasn't that many locals or tourists or working girls at the beach during the week I was there. Tony and Jaison eager to call chicas to the beach for one to check out, but with it so slow the girls just weren't coming to mingle about without knowing there were mongers there ready and willing. In that scenario, someone will most likely ask for taxi fare as well, which at 5 to 6 mil isn't such a big deal, but can add up for those on a strict budget. One fellow gringo wanted to sample something other than the street urchins he'd had all week, so I did have Jaison call in something different for him that he was extremely happy to meet, LOL. He said he gave her 120 mil (yes, Jaison did get a 20 mil cut from the girl and I gifted the 6 mil taxi fare for the chica when I paid my tab 'cause I didn't want to hear about it from some gringo thinking he was being worked over, LOL). Do guys get chicas for less on the beach? Yes. Do guys pay more for chicas on the beach? Yes. For as slow as it was and for the quality of the particular chica, the monger was quite happy. Plus, all he had to do was sit there sipping his beer while delivery service was brought to him. Worth an extra 20 mil for the tout and the 6 mil that I gifted for the taxi? In my book, yes, but I realize that others will disagree.
Tony was on decent behavior. He didn't show up at my building. He didn't blow-up my cell. He did ask for a beer or two, and on the day I was drinking I did buy a couple. On the day I was drinking water, I just told him not today and he left well enough alone. The other day I was there I arrived late in the afternoon and Tony was already gone (was my first day at the beach). That was a peaceful, massage, manicure and pedicure day, LOL.
I did not go to the beach on Sat. Or Sun, so my "slow" comment was from my during the week visits. As those who frequent CTG know, there are more people, be it tourists, locals, chicas to be had, etc, on Sat and Sun. Sunday in particular can often be a pleasant surprise when you pull a chica from what you first thought was an untouchable scenario of her being there with friends and family. We have to keep in mind that often Monday (seems like every other one) is a holiday, making Sunday an opportune time for a "party" for the locals.
For those thinking about heading down soon, there will be more chicas and more people in general in CTG after this week. Vacation holiday begins after this week, so expect things to pick-up for the next 6 weeks as usual during the school / university break. Much better time coming up over the next 6 weeks for beach scouting compared to the last 6 weeks.

To update a little on Mirador del Laguito building, I have heard from a couple of others that the situation is better because the scowling administradora, who made things difficult, is now gone. My information is 2nd hand. Neither guy I spoke to attempted to bring back multiple chicas at once, so I can't speak as to any other particulars. Probably best if someone else could chime-in with a firsthand account from staying there during the past few months.
Also, does anyone have any feedback or reports on the fairly new Posiedon building? I believe that Juan now has one apartment there in his rental pool, so it would be helpful if someone could share their experience. With the problems some of the other buildings have had when they were new, I'm personally leery of staying there until hearing back from actual firsthand accounts. Anybody have anything to report on this building before one of us is the guinea pig for the team?
Thanks.
[QUOTE=Hilltopper;1228771]To update the above information, same guy who had to sign a "no prostitute" policy statement upon checking-in at the Mirador back in October was not required to do so today. Too early in trip to get any additional feedback as he hasn't brought back a working girl and has wife'd-up with one non-pro for the Christmas week.[/QUOTE]

LDV scene and Pleyclub
Was at LDV last night. Hotter chicks started coming in around 12am. Picked two and everyone agreed to 150k for short time at my condo. Think their names were Grace and Sarah. In the club, they were really nice and flirty, but once we left, they were all business. Jumped in the cab and they wanted to go to a hotel instead and said we'll do short time for 100k instead and you pay for hotel. Got in the room and they demanded 150k instead. Wasn't really about the money, but the dishonesty that turned us off. Decided to leave without doing anything. Went back to LDV and picked up some hotter ones. 200k for short time.
Anyone have any news or updates about pricing at Pleyclub? Haven't been yet. Do you know what the bar fine is and how much a girl typically charges? Thanks fellow mongers!

Electra
Visited electra last night.
Arrived at around 4:30 am place was full of people, more men than ladies.
Quality of girls was not as high as in some previous visit. Still there were some nice ones.
Ended meeting a pretty paisa, brunette, around 5'6 or so, nice legs and nice medium size fake boobs.
After some negotiations agreed on 160 k.
Then we went to my place, she was a bit cold at the beginning but warmed as the sex went on.
Her ass and legs were great, so I enjoyed the experience although I have had better.
Seems that with the "high " tourist season there a lot of men around and also many new girls.
Will keep reporting.
Cheers

JetBlue is currently offering a special $149 one way ticket to promote the new route, beginning November 2, 2012.
The flights will leave Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays from New York at 8:25AM and from Cartagena at 2:05AM.[/QUOTE] (in my homer Simpson voice) mmmmmmmmmm. $149

Gents. Visiting Cartagena again in August and enjoy finding P4P during the late afternoon or early evening. Don't do casas or LDV that much anymore and was wondering where some of you experienced pros find your P4P during normal hours.
Lots of little bars and hangouts inside the walled city. Any help would be appreciated.

Airport pick up
Hello, I need your advice. I've booked a flight to Cartagena that arrive late at night, about midnight. I would know if there is an airport taxi service at that time or if you can suggest me someone who can do it. I'd prefer to avoid unsafe situations.
Thanks,

Whoever you're staying with, be it Juan, Mery or a hotel, can organise this for you. However, I wouldn't bother. You'll pay 2x or 3x the regular fare ($18k COP) and Cartagena taxis are very safe on the whole.

This trip review is a couple weeks old, I did a visit to Cartagena from June 29th to July 4th. I'm having issues with my digital camera, and will try to post a couple pics once the damn thing cooperates. I got into town early Friday afternoon and checked into Mirador 1402 from Juan, which is the penthouse with a Jacuzzi. For those of you thinking about renting it, note that it does not heat the water but I've figured out a good method to keep the water piping hot, pm me if you are thinking about renting the place out.
Anyways, after getting checked in and loading up at Carullo, I met up with a fellow ISG member at the beach. Overall, the beach talent wasn't great on Friday, and I decided to rest up for Friday night. I headed over to LDV around 11PM and it was fairly slow, so I decided to checkout Fragma. Fragma has a ton of hot girls, but seems to be more of a regular club, I couldn't quite figure out which chicks were prepagos, but still had a fun time at the club. Ended up at Elektra where the talent was pretty good. I was chatting it up with a cutie from Medellin, but we weren't able to agree to the price and I foolishly let her go, my biggest regret of the trip. I ended up taking back a girl from Bogota for TLN for COP 200K, smoked and fucked in the Jacuzzi for a bit before passing out. Overall a decent session with dfk, multiple rounds and a great ass, but all these prepagos seem to have war wounds from popping out kids, this one's tits were a bit stretched and saggy, disappointing.
Saturday I ended up at the beach to relax and didn't see much great talent. I spent my time in Fao's chairs as I find him to be more relaxed and honest than Tony, and I used Jaison when I needed to track down chicks. The weekend was a holiday weekend, but unfortunately it was flooded with families instead of semi-pro putas, even seasoned mongers and Jaison commented that they have never seen this many families. I ended up finding a nice little spinner with some personality through Jaison, and took her back to the apartment for daytime fun. Same story, her tits showed war wounds from pregnancy, but she was a pretty good lay and definitely would have stuck around TLN for a fairly low $$. I gave her an amount I thought was fair after we grabbed a nap and another fuck.
Saturday night I met a negra-version of Nicole Scherzinger at LDV that I had to take back to the apartment. We smoked, fucked and enjoyed some cee before she headed off, probably to catch a late night trick at Elektra. She was a great GFE and we never spoke about the amount, though I took care of her. This was the only girl I met during my trip that didn't show war wounds from a pregnancy.
I stayed in Cartagena Sunday – Wednesday, and would not recommend staying past Sunday. The beginning of the week is EXTREMELY slow, with many of the girls not coming out to on Sunday / Monday / Tuesday. There is very little for me to write about the last few nights, and I thought I would leave you with a few things I learned on my trip:
+ DO NOT plan to have a great selection at LDV / Elektra on Sunday – Tuesday.
+ If you stay in CTG those nights, grab a bunch of numbers earlier so that you have some girls lined up for the slow part of the week.
+ Spend time (and yes, money) feeling out the girls in LDV / Elektra before heading back to the apartment. 2 drinks at the bar is much cheaper than wasting your time with a bad session.
+ Try to find girls without kids, it is amazing how many of these girls have 2 or more kids!
+ Jaison and Fao are a good alternative to Tony on the beach.
+ Overall, the talent level seems down versus last year.
My next trip to CTG will only be for Thursday – Sunday morning, but I think my next visit in Colombia will be to the high end Bogota spots.

a few more items i forgot to mention:
+ don't get to ldv before 11:30, its a complete ghost town with only the ugly girls there hoping to grab someone before the hotties come in.
+ make a selection at elektra before 4ish, unless you don't mind scraping the bottom of the barrel.
+ if the guy at the elektra door is charging you cover, talk to aldo and he'll sort it out. they charge some people cover to keep out the gawkers, and the doorman was only following the managers directions. the manager wasn't too pleased when aldo told him to give me the cover charge back, hah!

[QUOTE=Amigox;1311128]Thinking about going to Cartagena but I keep hearing its expensive a city. Some my question is what make it an expensive places. Oh yeah quick sidenote my calena would be with me and we would be there a week.[/QUOTE]Many Colombians go there for a holiday. Also as it is a very safe city. This causes Gringos to go there. Not only Mongers, but tourists who like the history of the city. Also Any beach town is always expensive compared to normal citys. If I were you I would skip CTG, and go to Santa Marta. The ocean is cleaner, and the hotels, and food are less expensive than CTG. Since you already have talent on hand you don't need to hunt in CTG, but if you can slip away there are WG to be had in Santa Marta.
BTW enjoy your girl from Cali. I have found those creatures to be very hot.

[QUOTE=Joey Smith;1311260]Curious. Where are Jason and Faio located. Tired of dealing with this guy Tony![/QUOTE]Right there in Playa Hollywood. Fao will have "FAO" written on the fabric of his carpas. His "office carpa" will be right there within 5-10 meters of Mama Flor's fruit stand. Just deal with him for your carpa, chair, etc.
Jayson is a runner sort in Playa Hollywood. The authorities have been making them wear an official uniform shirt of late (wonder how long that lasts). He will be going back-and-forth between the little alley at the main road (closest to Playa Hollywood) and Playa Hollywood.
Fao understands gringo-butchered Spanish, but does not speak English. Jayson speaks English. When not doing a massage or pedicure / manicure, Emily is pretty much now sitting with Fao or at Mama Flor's.
Tony is typically now down to the right a little from Mama's Flor's fruit stand. He'll be griping and complaining about why you not likey Tony anymore. He's predominantly going through more of the "stick" phase in the 'ole carrot-and-stick game of his hustle life there at Playa Hollywood. After one explains to him why they & other gringos are not using him near as much anymore, he'll grunt that he's been there for 20-something years and that his business will be okay. Remains to be seen if the loss of business and status changes his arithmetic skills and business tactics.
If you want any of their cell numbers, shoot a pm. Don't worry, I won't give you Tony's by mistake, LOL.

[QUOTE=Amigox;1311128]Thinking about going to Cartagena but I keep hearing its expensive a city. Some my question is what make it an expensive places. Oh yeah quick sidenote my calena would be with me and we would be there a week.[/QUOTE]In my "opinion", here are a few reasons off the top my head:
1. What makes it "expensive" by Colombian standards is it is the vacation / tourist destination in the country. It is a place where the Colombianos with discretionary spending money go for domestic vacations, getaways, wedding ceremonies, business group meetings / seminars, government officials / dignitaries, etc. It is also a tourist destination for foreigners, including cruise ships, international business seminars, romantic getaways, government officials / dignitaries, etc. Just like most any city where tourism is the top or one of the top economic drivers, real estate and prices for goods & services will be higher in the tourist zones and for tourist attractions. Tourists and business travelers tend to spend their money more freely. Hey, it's vacation! Goods, attractions, services, accommodations, etc, are priced accordingly in the tourist zones. They are geared toward a more affluent customer than non-tourist zones. Locals involved with and local infrastructure that supports the tourism feed off this economic activity. That tourist money (needs to) touches many hands from the consumer to the producer (and remember all of the officials and infrastructure that must be supported).
2. From a more every day transactional standpoint, there is the Costeno concept of asking price, real price and the art of negotiation / haggling that not all people are accustomed to and / or enjoy. Inflated prices can be paid by visitors / tourists because of their lack of knowledge of the fair market price for an item, their reluctance or unfamiliarity with aggressive negotiating / haggling, or their general attitude of "screw it, I know I'm probably overpaying, but let's have some fun anyway-it's my vacation!" The is no shame in the local culture to excessively inflate or mark-up a price if the buyer (especially tourist) pays it. It is not dishonorable to extract extra or overcharge; actually can be viewed as a good business practice since it may be the difference in the vendor having some meat with the rice tonight, along with some aguillas!
3. Visitors / consumers / tourists can (choose to) make it more expensive by their own choices for convenience, comfort, luxury, expediency, personalization / VIP treatment and uniqueness.

here's the thing about times, venues, etc. : different strokes for different folks.
some guys like to get to ldv and / or electra before most anyone else and "scope" the talent as it first shows-up. others say screw that, i'm not showing-up until things are hoppin' and there's a crowd of people. some want to grab a chica early before she's "taken"; others prefer to wait closer to closing time with the idea that prices will drop much like scalped tickets do outside the arena as the event gets started.
probably not unlike most, i can be all over the board depending on my mood, how much sleep or lack of sleep i've had, how much liquor i've consumed, how long since my last nut, etc. that means one night i may want to show up early and then other times show-up right before closing, but generally some where in-between, lol.
the last several times i've been to ldv, i didn't show up until 1:30 or after. i'd only go at 11:30 if i was trying to stay on "wake-up before 9 a. m." schedule the next day, or if i had this crazy idea that i was going to bang one chica, go back for another, and then grab a 3rd at electra. needless to say, i don't come up with crazy ideas all that often these days, lol.
as has been stated before, show-up at electra at 3 and it will be you and the staff there. nada mas. then all of a sudden at 3:30 the crowd starts arriving and continues to do so steadily for the next 45 minutes. the last time i was there i showed-up around 5:15 or so and it was somewhat slim pickins'; only saw 3 or 4 that would make me rise to attention from looks alone. if i had shown-up an hour to an hour and a half earlier like i did several nights before that, then i'm confronted with 15+ that strike my fancy and i have a tougher time deciding, lol.
as to the guy charging at the door. i was there last month and did notice some people who went in before me got charged. i can't say that i've ever noticed that before and i've never been asked for an entrance fee. he did at first seem to give off body language that he was going to hit me up, but then he either recognized me (not because i'm anybody important, but because i've been there more times than i care to say) or my body language / mannerisms gave off the vibe that i'm not paying and he didn't say anything, just held the door open and nodded. not sure, but since i really haven't noticed it happening before, could be more of a recent push to put a little extra in the pocket.
it's similar to when you read some guy saying that there's this policy that a guy has to buy a girl a drink at ldv. huh? no one's ever mentioned that or brought that up when i've been there or to anyone i've talked to there. it wasn't a policy, it was just another one of those times in cartagena where someone saw an opportunity to make a little extra coin or get a drink purchased for them. or maybe there are guys who go and sit there without ordering anything and then they are told that. could be, but i dunno, 'cause i always order something. even if it's only bottled water or a beer. the place serves drinks; that's how they pay the light bill, um i came to their establishment and plopped myself down; i'll have a drink tyvm.
speaking of drinks, i think i'll go make one.

Lots of little bars and hangouts inside the walled city. Any help would be appreciated.[/QUOTE]During the day inside the wall? Use your people / social skills, Spanish language ability, chica pick-up ability, gift for gab, good looks, mannerisms, sense of humor, discretion to not make them look / feel like a puta or WG in public, and eye contact.
Otherwise, go to Playa Hollywood and other parts of the beach in the afternoon up 'til 5:30 or so; and / or stroll the sidewalks of Boca Grande and Laguito using observation, eye contact and social skills. Hang out in Laguito and / or Boca Grande; sitting at cafe tables, walking the sidewalks. Observe, observe, make eye contact, smile, speak with eye contact, speak to vendors, speak to the chicas selling phone service and other items, make contacts, etc, etc.
Or, point-and-click or order delivery by giving Jayson a call or visit in Playa Hollywood and tell him you'd like an introduction: be it flacca, morenita, negrita, blanca, calena, paisa. 18-19, natural or enhanced, voluptuous, big tits, inexperienced, experienced, etc, etc. If you don't like the one you are introduced to, don't show interest and then inform Jayson of such and why so that he'll know to keep looking and dialing for you, and on then on to the next one, so on and so forth. He's just "introducing", you determine if you "hit it off" enough to pursue further. Oh yeah, pretty much wasting your time to try to arrange an introduction well in advance. What's well in advance? Uh, the day before, lol.
Bang the girl from the night before who did TLN and is still sleeping in your bed, or call the girl you banged yesterday from the beach who's just here in town for "vacation". Bang the so-so lookin' girl who dials your # from the lobby of your building asking if you want a massage and you have no idea who she is, but somehow she knows you're there and you just happen to be in the mood for a massage and / or horny.
Lastly, dial numbers that you've gathered from prior visits, your favoritas, your amigas, your past novias, the numbers you asked for from scoping out the night time venues / discos earlier in the week or the numbers you can get from other mongers you meet there. Okay, yeah. 1/3 or more will be disconnected, and then another 1/3 or more won't answer or their busy right now, and then what's left may or may not show up when they say they will; but hey, if they are attracted to you, horny or even better have an immediate need that day for some dinero, you're going to get laid.
Thus is daytime action in Cartagena, LOL.
Enjoy your trip!
P.S. Yes, there are makeshift casas out where the "real people" live and there is also whole 'nother world of opportunity and otherwise out there with the "real folk". While I've been out there with the real folk many a time, it's never been alone and it's never been to find action. Just the opposite....I try to stay away from "action" when outside the tourist zones of Cartagena, lol. Great place to meet amigas of amigas, hermanas, primas, tias, classmates & moms though!!!!!!

Elektra charging
Re the comments on Elektra charging some customers. They have been doing this for as long as I remember. Everytime I've seen, it's been with 'mainstream' tourists. So my take on it is that it's tax on those that don't play our game.
Re LDV and their drinks policy. I'm with Hilltopper, I'm never even heard of people being forced to buy drinks there. Very strange.

I've never encountered an issue with the LDV drinks policy, but then again, I would never think about taking a girl out before I spent a little bit of time talking to her and getting her drunk!

[QUOTE=Hillbilly69; 1288057]There is a slew of budget Hotels near the Smaller Olympica look at the map under Budget Hotels, I wouldn't even bother with reservations if that is what you want for 40 a night range.

Oh yeah quick sidenote my calena would be with me and we would be there a week.[/QUOTE]Cartagena is my cheapest destination, I can party like a rockstar for 200 USD a day, airfare is 500 for me more or less. Apartment 60-75 with washer dryer, A / C plenty of towels and Ocean view. 200 a day includes 2 girls and at least a case of beer at 1250 pesos about 75 cents a piece. This being said I had the guy that wrote the book on mongering literally show me how he rolls in Cartagena and the North Coast of the DR. I watched him pick up girls on Playa Hollywood for 50k pesos and I know he has paid as low as 20k pesos for LDV girls although the lowest I have ever been quoted there is 50k pesos outside sitting on a bench.
You will get fucked on prices first by Tony if he middles you and you will pay more than 100k pesos for a stunner at the beach, best to get their number or meet them on the street walking separately from the beach so Tony doesn't shake her down later. It also goes without saying Tony will run the tab up on your beers and umbrella if he gets the chance, I bring my own beer at least a case with ice and a soft cooler and hand them to girls and some to Tony, Jason, Emily, the reason I give a few to Tony is I figure it is about 50 dollars a day cheaper to bring my own and then pay him the regular Colombian rate for the chair and umbrella which is 12k per day tops. Oh he bitches like a mother fucker that is his thing, why do you fuck me, I thought you were my friend, I have 5 kids, I know you are rich, Why you fuck me in the ass, and the list goes on, my response is usually, if you are my friend then thanks for the free chairs and I start walking without paying him, on his kids you should have kept your little pecker in your pants, I know you are rich, no times are tough that is why I haven't seen you in a while, then he responds I know you go other places. Then is other favorite,"I am not stupid" then I say," Your a fucking idiot but your a hell of a scammer!" then he laughs and gives me a fist bop. Then his always," When are you leaving I want my tip " which I always tell him a few days more than I am staying so he doesn't pester me to death.
Keep in mind the whole time at the beach I am gathering numbers for later which goes the same for the LDV and Electra because the day rate is a hell of alot cheaper by day then night.
As far as food goes I have never been much of a foodie, I will eat breakfast at MCDonalds so I can watch the girls walk by on the sidewalk and browse the internet on my Laptop or I will get 4 doghnuts and a coffee for about 2 bucks at the street vendor across the street from the Amirante, or I will eat at Juan Valdez. At night I will eat at Riquisimos, Santo Domingo Plaza or Carbon de Palo. I typically don't eat lunch I spend all day at the beach from noon till dusk.
I walk alomost everywhere except to Centro mostly for the excercise, I hardly ever pull girls from Electra or LDV anymore but I go to get numbers and keep a mental note of their faces so when the walk by my beach chair the next day I will wave them over to chat. Same goes for Isis girls.
I don't burn the midnight oil much like YouCan and the Eduardo mostly cause I am whipped from the beach and Sun all day, but I need to go to bed from the beach and wake up at midnight like alot of guys do.

I've only been once and had a blast but that was many years ago. Stayed at the building LocoGringo recommended, thought maybe it was actually his rental. Nice guy. Does he still rent apartments? Do any of the rentals have wifi?
It was after a few trips to MDE and a fellow monger and I made a long weekend trip. It was a blast and I remember it being reasonable. We had a intro from a cab driver in MDE (his cousin) who showed up to greet us at the airport with a friend. Went right to the apartment and into bed.
Tony is a riot. You got to love the way he makes a living. I wonder how much he dabbles in his product? These pics are of a Tony girl. Her name was Tatti. I don't remember what I paid but whatever it was it was a hell of a lot cheaper and definitely better than anything that you can get in the USA at the time when prices were pretty much a firm $300. She hung out all day and did as many pops as I was capable of. I have a thing for spinners and as you can see by my hand her ass quotient she definitely was a spinner. Great time and real GFE.
Simon says: I need a mongering vacation soon.
Although there are those that would say I am on a mongering vacation at home.

[QUOTE=SimonHeSays;1314068]Great info. I've only been once and had a blast but that was many years ago. Stayed at the building LocoGringo recommended, thought maybe it was actually his rental.

I know them both, Locogringo Apartment rental is Martin and he rides motorcycles and I think he is now renting them in Cartagena and that would be a blast.
ISG Locogringo is someone else and he rides Paisas and Calenas.

The first foursome I had in my life, tres chicas from LDV, July 2010. 3 pairs of silicon breasts, LOL.
Pity that I could not get their faces in the picture, they were nice too!
The girls did not allow to take face pics. I respect that.

Simon,
That girl has exactly the type of body I love. Whether she's 5'-10", long and lean or a 4'-11" spinner it doesn't matter to me. Nice way to spend the day.

It was after a few trips to MDE and a fellow monger and I made a long weekend trip. It was a blast and I remember it being reasonable. We had a intro from a cab driver in MDE (his cousin) who showed up to greet us at the airport with a friend. Went right to the apartment and into bed.
Tony is a riot. You got to love the way he makes a living. I wonder how much he dabbles in his product? These pics are of a Tony girl. Her name was Tatti. I don't remember what I paid but whatever it was it was a hell of a lot cheaper and definitely better than anything that you can get in the USA at the time when prices were pretty much a firm $300. She hung out all day and did as many pops as I was capable of. I have a thing for spinners and as you can see by my hand her ass quotient she definitely was a spinner. Great time and real GFE.

A couple pics from previous visits to CTG, unfortunately the camera won't let me get the newer pics from this past trip. These girls definitely weren't showing battle wounds from pregnancies. The morena is from Barranquilla, acts like a shark but was actually a sweetheart after breaking through her shell. I forget where the rubia is from.
Both had great bodies.

Heading to Cartegena in Two Weeks
Would appreciate any recommendations on what hotel to stay at that has beach access and is walking distance to bars and restaurants. Or is it better to stay downtown and taxi to the beach everyday. It sound like there are women available no matter what part of town you are in.
Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help.[/QUOTE]Rent an apartment by the beach. Cheaper and bigger than a hotel, they let you bring girls back and it's easy to get into the old part of the city by taxi. Plus the beach areas have nice and reasonably priced places to eat. At night you can hit LDV and just walk with the girl to your pad.

Oh yeah, I heard the Hilton in Laguito will let you pay for the use of their gym too. Probably expensive but adequate.

Hey Guys-

Thank You

First time visitor
Hi,
I'll be in Cartagena from Tuesday 11th Sept and have a few questions.
What are the strip clubs like? Are they full nude? Are the lap dances worthwhile?
Whats best place to pick up regular girls; I speak fluent Spanish.
I want to get some photos to post in the forum; are girls generally willing to be snapped or will they want a lot of money?
I'm looking for a private apartment for $80-$100 per night that is girl friendly and close to the action so any contact details would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bid

ATM, apts.
Davienda gives up to 720, 000 per withdrawal, Servi is 780, 000 but has a 5, 500 fee that is ADDED to amount withdrawn. CitiBank is even more but not sure if the Boca location (Blockbuster) is still open. Contact Juan Ventura for an apartment, most in Laguito are ok for chicas with I'd's. There are many touts for apts, etc, in Cartagena, be careful.

Also invest in a cable to tie all your stuff together to the bed, it is common sense to have all your shit locked away especially if you do TLN.

I've had success with the ATMs in Cartagena and I don't always have success with ATMs in other parts of the world.
If I have cash, I put it in a suitcase that I lock.
I know a group that had girls staying day in and day out with them and one guy had an ipod turn up missing. They really had their guard down and that wasn't anything that big of a deal anyways. If you are bringing them back for an hour or so, the chances of something bad happening are even less. You walk from LDV to one of the beach apartments and they show their I'd to the main desk who writes their I'd number down. So they tend to behave and are also generally nice and down to earth people. Many of them want to remain friends with you (they give you their real name and # and facebook info)

Went barhopping on Wednesday night, hitting 8 to 10 bars, finishing at Elekta, then brought a couple girls back to my apartment, where we partied until 8, when we got a crazy idea to go to Santa Marta! Called Marisol transport and away we went. Finally shut it down about 6 last night, and just arrived moments ago back here in Cartagena. Sent the girls on there way, and now I am heading out the door to Playa Hollywood with my bottle of Crown Royal and a cooler full of beers, to enjoy the company of Emily, Tony, Fao, and several others, which include a couple girls I called from Pleyclub whom I met on Wednesday night, and are on there way in to celebrate the "Dia de Amistad why Amor", which is the holiday here in Colombia. Should be an exciting time as usual, but hopefully not as crazy at Wednesday night was.

Cartagena so far
I now understand why Cartagena is such a popular place! First night ended up in ISIS with a beautiful Venezuelan. Took the advice from the forum and arranged to meet her next day but on my way out some goon told me I had to pay a $200 bar fine as he knew I had arranged to meet her. I told him to fuck off and that was the end (I hope). Went to the ATM outside LDV and started chatting to some girl sat on the bench outside. We had a few drinks in LDV and then agreed to come back to my place to drink some rum. We get through the door and she leaps on me without any mention of money. I always thought squirting was made up as I have never had a squirter before but wow this girl was amazing. Best thing was she came so easy and was a bit of a screamer which was great for the ego. She wasn't the best looking but so far this girl has been by far the best fuck and cleanest of them all. She goes by the name Esmeradla and I recommend just for the novelty of seeing a girl squirt. Best thing was she never asked for any money but I gave her $100.
Next day checked out Playa Hollywood found a group of girls from some house that isn't on the map. Can't remember what it is called but they said its only $85 a girl. Sat all afternoon with four of them and took a real liking to two who had just arrived from Cali and didn't want to be there. Arranged to take them to playa Blanca the next day and left it at that. When they left Tony brings over very sexy looking mulata who came back with me. She looked so good and I let me take some photos of her which I will post when I get back. Major problem was smelling my fingers after getting my hands down her pants; smelt like a dead cat which put me right off. I just paid her to leave.
Next day I took my own cooler and bottle of rum down too the beach so that Tony didn't have chance to rip me off with the bar tab. This time there where even more girls from this house so I partied with them and some American guys working over here. The girl with the rotten pussy turned up and was latching on to one of the American guys so I felt I had to warn him to change target as he wasn't going to like what he found. Ended up getting a little fucked up on the beach so never made it to playa Blanca but spent the rest of the night with one of the Cali girls. I paid her house fine of $100 and told her she could sleep in my apartment without any obligation. She was just happy to get away from the place and we had a great night and a real girlfriend experience.
Next day the other Cali girl phoned up crying. After her first client she had discovered this was not the life for her. Ended up spending the day with both Cali girls; one wanting to stay and the other wanting to get the next plane back to Cali. Felt really sorry for the one who wants to leave and considering paying her flight back. She is obviously very different from the regular girls here. They are both coming around again tomorrow and hopefully we will finally make it to Playa Blanca.

La Vitrola will require reservations for sure unless you get there right when they open for dinner (7?) and really sweet talk the host to seat you early. Pesca is not as crowded but I would actually advise calling well in advance and asking them for a table that hangs out over the water. You will be set back 150, 000-250, 000 COP at either place, depending on how much you like to drink.

Thanks for the detailed report.
As for the Goon trying to extract $200 from you maybe you were not careful enough in Isis getting her contact info. They look for things like that as the bar fines are a real money maker for the establishment.
Now I see you have a big heart. You have concerns for the plight of some of the Chicas you have met. All well, and good as being a cold person is not a good thing IMHO. Fact is a good heart while mongering can get very expensive.
I hope your trip continues to bring you pleasure, and I look forward to your next report.

Cartagena continued
Sorry I got my prices mixed up in last report when I said $100 I meant 100 Mil peso. Anyway last night I was in the apartment and got 2 unexpected home deliveries. First was from a girl I apparently met on Tonys beach. She was cute but a lousy lay; straight down to business in and out within 30 minutes. Half an hour later the squirter turned up and we partied like for 5 hours. She loved to model and even let me video her squirting and giving BBBJ. I think this girl has to be a nymphomaniac as I have never seen a girl who comes so easy and who does shit that I've never even seen in movies. As I said before not much to look at but the best fuck ever.
Meeting up with the Cali girls today and trying to get them both on a plane back home. Figured out Colombian girls are like fish. You can go to a restaurant and eat a big tasty one that costs you a fortune but is completely forgotten the next day or you can spend a few hours sitting patiently with your pole in your hand (no pun intended!) and enjoy the thrill of the hunt and eating fresh juicy fish at the end of the day for free.

Beware of Trannies

And #2 how did he get your money first? When you pay first you put the trick in control, consider yourself very lucky to even get back one peso and finally #3 how did you finally realize you were with a shemale?

Hotels Vs apartments in Cartagena. New year
Hola,
Question: I'll be in Cartagena for New Year's Eve, the basic room at the Hilton costs 360 USD in that period. I wouldn't go for a mid-level hotel, but I would choose an apartment if I get better value for money. In Kiev for instance you'd have to be an idiot to book a hotel, when you have luxury apartments in the center (jacuzzi included) at less than USD 100 per night (vs 300 USD for a nice hotel).
Can anyone tell me what the NICE apartments (I mean nicely decorated inside, internet, proper furniture) in the NICE areas cost (I mean either in the very center, or in the nightlife center)? And kindly pass me some links where I can check photos and book.
Thanks in advance

Hey guys, I'm new to the Columbia, section but tons of trips made to the Dominican, Thailand etc. I'm taking a trip to Cartagena, with 3 other people, I was wondering if there are 4 bedroom Apartments, clean, chica friendly, safe. I also want to send a shoutout to my boy Hillbilly69, for suggesting Cartagena, We were headed to Medellin, but thanks to Hillbillys photos, and expertise we now decided on Cartagena. Any and all information ie. Dos and don't, would be much appreciated.

Cartagena
Overall not a bad trip, had to move out of the Atlantis Penthouse and into 504 Mirador after first night, I don't recommend the Atlantis apartment I will leave it at that.
Some good stories most I can't share, well ok one story in a nutshell wingman sent 80 bucks to Medellin girl Western Union to meet him in Cartagena, the girl didn't show up he sat in his apartment already have taken his viagra and sporting wood. I damn near died laughing, I can't imagine any girl showing up after only getting 80 dollars, it is a net loss with the 2 taxis food and a one way ticket even taking VivaColombia.
Ok one more story the owner of a penthouse tried getting in a fight with Tony at the beach, too drunk to stand up, fell down several times, Tony had to dress him and carry him back afterward, apparently he left his computer out and one of Tony's girls took his laptop, fucking idiot.
Went to Playa Linda, Playa Blanca more on that later with pics.
September is supposed to be slowest month being rainy and such, rain hung over Centro and the main city most of the time I was there but not at the beach.
The Intercontinental is coming along maybe another year or so.
Tony was his usual self he tried to fill me in on all the bullshit but I already knew.
Overall quality of beach girls I would say was up from December the last I was there.
Hot as hell a few of the days I was there 100 plus heat index easy.
Some beach pics.

Playa Linda
I took a boat to Playa Linda a remote beach about 15 minutes West of Laguito, took the boat from near entrance of the Hilton in Laguito.
Boat was 30k pesos per person each way so 60k pesos round trip per person, I used a guy named Edgardo.
Thatched cabanas on the beach are 20k pesos with chairs, a tout middled me for 20k so got lubed on that one after I asked the price 3 times.
Beers were small 1k peso bottled store beer that were 5k pesos each there.
Took a girl with me, still got bored out of my mind and found a pet rock to talk to. LOL.
The water was clear there a big improvement from Playa Hollywood, beach sand was white but small pea sized stones, no chics there but it was during the week.
Nicest 4 beaches in Cartagena area are in order of importance 1) Playa Blanca 2) Playa De Punta de Arena 3) Terra Bomba and 4) Playa Linda.
Boat driver told me lots of chics at Playa de Punta de Arena on weekends, might be worth a look.

Playa Blanca
I took a private boat a 24 foot v bottom with a cover and a 40hp motor to Playa Blanca, I used same guy that took me to Playa Linda the day before, Edgardo. I could have took the direct Boat from the Harbor for 50k pesos each but would have to be there by 8 am, boat leaves at 9am. Factoring in taxis 2 people it cost me 140k pesos more a total of 250k pesos to take my own boat there, but I can go and leave when I wanted. I left at 11am returned at 430pm, it took 45 minutes each way.
I was there 3 years ago but my batteries were all dead and only got a few pics from there.
I rented a Jet Ski for 50k pesos for 20 minutes which was pricey compared to Playa Hollywood but was fun.
We ate fish and salad which was 35k pesos per plate.
They rent small cabanas on beach there for 50k pesos per night which is basically a bed with a roof, I guess there is alot of hot chics here on weekend nights.
There was about 2 to 1 girls to guys there with the ugliest being about an 8.
Girl I was with rented a snorkel and mask for 10k pesos for an hour and messed around a small reef just off the beach.
The beach was white fine sand without stones and such, water pretty clear blue, it has a Gilligan's Island feel to the place.

Does anyone know if decameron hotel is a girls freindly?
I am going for the first time to Cartagena and staying at Decameron.
Can I bring girls back there?
Or should I rent a cheap place downtown for girls?

[QUOTE=Thirstytravel; 1339540]I am going for the first time to Cartagena and staying at Decameron.
Can I bring girls back there?
Or should I rent a cheap place downtown for girls?[/QUOTE]It depends on whether you're planning to wife up or wh*re around a lot, and what your budget is. The Decameron should allow you to pay a very high joiner fee, for overnight or just for the day. The reason it's high is because it's all inclusive (food, drinks, etc.). I have done this at the Decameron in Panama but not Cartagena. I'm not sure this would work if you're coming back with a woman who looks like a complete **** at 3:00 AM. But it should if reception thinks your date could be a nonpro, which is what you should lead them to believe.

Is there a reason your not just renting a condo for your stay? That way you have a nice full apartment and can bring whoever you want up to your room with no fees or problems.

Hotel El Pueblito is 5 blocks East on the beach a short time hotel, maybe you can get a day rate there cheap if your laying down the wood several times a day, do your homework and study the map.

Thanks for the good advices guys.
The reason I was thinking on going to decameron. Is that flights from toronto are very expensive to cartagana, so the all inclusive deal would have been worthed. But I found a flight from buffalo that is pretty good.
So I might do that and get an appartement instead.
Any advice on appartement? Or girl friendly hotel?

For All Holidays
[QUOTE=Chill Bill;1341351]Someone told me that Cartagena is pretty happening for New Years. That many girls from Medellin, Cali, Bogota, etc. Come up to the coast to celebrate / party / relax. Is this true?[/QUOTE]That's pretty much true for every coastal area during the holidays no? Think Jersey Shore, Cape Cod, Ocean City, ect during the summer. I would imagine this to be true but for the most part the girls will be away with their family so they will not be slutting themselves out in front of their Abuelas & Mamas. If they in the club they might be with their cousins and stuff that provides other obstacles. Long weekends and the Finca is family time. Maybe for New Years but from what I have seen in Bogota and Medellin a house party is where you want to be vs a Club. Colombians are cheap and or broke all the time so a cheap house party works best for them.
I've never been to Cartagena but I find the last two weeks of Nov and the fist two of Dec to be the most fun all over Colombia. Girls need that extra holiday money so they go back to work on the streets, clubs, casas, ect. You can see this phenomenon in US strip clubs too or even Parents taking on seasonal help for a few extra bucks during this time. Plus everybody is out and about parting, tons of events going on, it's a great time!
The time after Christmas till about a week after New Years, is dead, everything is closed, girls are firmly gripped by family time, so yeah. Just my two cents; maybe I wan't looking hard enough.

If you can get a flight for a good price, just ditch the all inclusive and stop talking about hotels. Cartagena is best to have Apartment. That is my advice to you. Good luck!

2nd Trip Report Cartagena
Just spent 4 days in Cartagena arrived on Wednesday and left Sunday morning. The airport was exchanging $1US dollar to 1700COP. Took a taxi to Bocagrande for 5K COP and stayed at the San Martin for 1 night $83 or 150K COP, including a good full breakfast, which was centrally located and a great botique hotel I found to have great reviews on tripadvisor. The exchange house within walking distance of the hotel was giving 1750COP per $1 US dollar.
Three weeks prior I joined LAC (Latin American Cupid) and had a list of 10 contacts but narrowed it down to three, with the first being my plan A. Plan B and C never showed. I was hoping to repeat last years experience, an amazing GFE experience with a non-pro and solid 8. In fact I still kept in touch but decided not to visit her in Barranquilla and instead try a new experience with my plan A who happens to be from Barranquilla too. She showed up and looked amazing a perfect 10. She is 21 years. 5'6" about 110lbs, light skinned with long black hair, thin waist and flat stomache, nice natural chest, great legs and an ass to die for. And super sweet. She reminded me of last year's GFE but better. I don't know what's going on in Barranquilla but they do have the best natural looking and sweetest women I have ever met.
Plan A this visit got dressed so we could go out and have dinner. OMFG, she looked amazing in a skin tight mini dress and heels. Everywhere we went she got the attention from everyone. We had a nice romantic stroll and dinner at Plaza Santa Domingo (?) had a great seafood meal over a bottle of sangria. We talked about everything and anything, all the while thinking at the end of the night I will be in heaven while making love to her. After dinner we walked over to Tu Candelas and spent the rest of the night dancing over a bottle of Medellin Ron Rum and soda. She danced very good to everything and looked so sexy. We hugged a lot, touched each other and kissed LFK. Earlier when she first arrived she had a slight headache so I offered and gave her a nice FBSM non-sexual but I got to caress that lovely body of hers and used all my willpower to resist from coming on to her so quickly knowing that a full night of dinner, drinks, dancing and romance would bring me to her fruition.
We left the club about 3:30am and headed to my wonderful beachfront apartment en Laguito, courtesy of venproreviews, and was ready to make this night ingrained in memory for future playback. We had previously made plans for her to spend the entire time with me and she was looking forward to going sightseeing with me everywhere. She doesn't have kids and her older sister had met and married an american via LAC.
Back to the moment, as she went to the bathroom to change, I got comfortable on the bed and was ready for her. She came out of the bathroom in a pair of tiny short shorts and top. We started to LFK again and hugged. All of a sudden she stopped cold turkey, said it was too soon, that we have a few days to get to know each other more, and said goodnight. WTF! I was in shock. We were both buzzed from the alcohol and for a second I thought I was back in the states on a regular date with an american woman. Then realized not! I attempted to massage her and kiss her then finally reason with her but no go. I couldn't believe that I struck out after our amazing time together. I figured she wanted something serious and was probably influenced by her sister to hold out and win me over for a serious relationship. I wasn't ready to play this game and didn't give her any intention of being ready for something serious, just a good experience if the chemistry was there and friendship.
Well I could not sleep having this perfect 10 laying down inches from me. After talking some more I asked her it was best for her to return to Barranquilla and called Marsol transportation to come pick her up at 6am. She appeared confused and I simply told her I felt the chemistry with her and had a fantastic time but I felt she didn't feel the chemistry with me. I was hoping she would give in and she inferred there would be chemistry within a few more days but I didn't come all the way down here to get teased like this and so I stood my ground and she hers. I gave her the cost of travel to and from which I had agreed to do from the beginning. I also bought her a 5K COP bracelet after dinner as a small romantic gesture. Total cost of our night out and expenses 250K COP. I don't regret our time together or the money I spent, only the misunderstanding. It could have been immature on her part or lack of experience from what she told me about her life. But damn I was so close. Goes to show what worked during one visit is not a guarantee of future visits.
I followed the game plan of Hillbilly69 and spent full days at the beach and low and behold there was plenty of talent. Mostly 6-7's but eventually I found several 8's each day and sessioned with 1 for 100K COP ST a hot blondie from MDE, and another for 50K COP a delicious spinner from BQA.
I hit LDV two nights but the first night I was so exhausted from the beach and a detour session with Sandra from the street, that I never went inside and only talked to a beautiful dark woman from BQA. She was holding out for $300K COP as it was early about 11:30pm. After talking for about 20 min she indicated the session would be TLN. But I was too tired for that and got sleepy and went home alone.
I heard reports that Elektra was closed and there was another club that took its place but I never went to see for myself if this was true. I ran into three americans from Miami who were cool to hang out with during my second visit to LDV. If you guys are on this board send me a pm.
I scored a 9 an amazing spinner from BQA for 150K COP ST and she carried herself well, very polished and sexy and sweet. She turned out to be a little nymphomaniac and was my best session of my trip. It's just too bad I met her on my last night in town.
Taxi back to the airport was 15K COP, and it literally took 90 min to get through the lines. The airport is going through renovations and they didn't have enough people working so early in the morning at the counters, whereas last year it only took 10 min.
My wingman wussed out on me this trip but if your reading this the beach scene was way better than last year! I plan on returning in February and spending time in BQA during the carnival events and meeting my favorite women from Colombia. If anyone wants to hang out and check out the clubs let me know.

Thanks for the Post DL
Not everyone shares their experience striking out. I for one appreciate these more than the exaggerated tales of conquest. I think you made a good decision sending her packing but it must have been hard booting someone that hot. Sounds like you still had a great time though. Good on ya.
-
DL, the reports you heard indicating that Electra is closed are true-it is closed. The same crowd is now going to a place just past Universidad de Cartagena in the old city. I can't remember the name of the place.
I'll wager that the hottie from Quilla will be begging you to come back to bang her. She will be sweet as can be and will tantalize you with the thoughts of slammin' that sweet pussy. She'll be yours for the taking, if you want, on your next return visit.
Sounds like you still made out for a great, fun trip!

I hit LDV two nights but the first night I was so exhausted from the beach and a detour session with Sandra from the street, that I never went inside and only talked to a beautiful dark woman from BQA. She was holding out for $300K COP as it was early about 11:30pm. After talking for about 20 min she indicated the session would be TLN. But I was too tired for that and got sleepy and went home alone.
I heard reports that Elektra was closed and there was another club that took its place but I never went to see for myself if this was true. I ran into three americans from Miami who were cool to hang out with during my second visit to LDV. If you guys are on this board send me a pm.
I scored a 9 an amazing spinner from BQA for 150K COP ST and she carried herself well, very polished and sexy and sweet. She turned out to be a little nymphomaniac and was my best session of my trip. It's just too bad I met her on my last night in town.
Taxi back to the airport was 15K COP, and it literally took 90 min to get through the lines. The airport is going through renovations and they didn't have enough people working so early in the morning at the counters, whereas last year it only took 10 min.
My wingman wussed out on me this trip but if your reading this the beach scene was way better than last year! I plan on returning in February and spending time in BQA during the carnival events and meeting my favorite women from Colombia. If anyone wants to hang out and check out the clubs let me know.[/QUOTE]I had a non pro from BAQ a few years ago (almost married her ). I met her on Colombia Cupid. She would not even give me a real kiss till the 3rd date.
I guess with you there for less than a week you must have felt you needed total action. I can understand that. Myself I would have given her another night to come across. I mean a real 10 who was great to be with? Anyway you made your choice, and it seems you had a good time in CTG. Hey thats all anyone can hope for. Thanks for the detailed report.

[QUOTE=Dos Lunas; 1342968]Well I could not sleep having this perfect 10 laying down inches from me. After talking some more I asked her it was best for her to return to Barranquilla and called Marsol transportation to come pick her up at 6am. She appeared confused and I simply told her I felt the chemistry with her and had a fantastic time but I felt she didn't feel the chemistry with me. I was hoping she would give in and she inferred there would be chemistry within a few more days but I didn't come all the way down here to get teased like this and so I stood my ground and she hers. I gave her the cost of travel to and from which I had agreed to do from the beginning. I also bought her a 5K COP bracelet after dinner as a small romantic gesture. Total cost of our night out and expenses 250K COP. I don't regret our time together or the money I spent, only the misunderstanding. It could have been immature on her part or lack of experience from what she told me about her life. But damn I was so close. Goes to show what worked during one visit is not a guarantee of future visits.[/QUOTE]I got blue balls just reading your post hahaha.
My thoughts:
If you were looking and hoping for a sweet, hot, sexy girlfriend; you may have been foolish and lost out.
She just may have devoured you sexually the next day.
A real non pro, educated girl, looking for a mate is not normally going to have sex the first night. She has to show her pride and that she's real.
They normally come around very quickly though, if they dig ya, and take good care of their man.
If you're more on the fun bang and run conquest, you probably did yourself right.
Appears that she was looking for more of a boyfriend and not a f. K buddy.
Could I get her number please, hahaha, just kidding.
Sounds like you had a fun time though, great report, thanks.

[QUOTE=Dos Lunas; 1342968]Just spent 4 days in Cartagena arrived on Wednesday and left Sunday morning. The airport was exchanging $1US dollar to 1700COP. Took a taxi to Bocagrande for 5K COP and stayed at the San Martin for 1 night $83 or 150K COP, including a good full breakfast, which was centrally located and a great botique hotel I found to have great reviews on tripadvisor. The exchange house within walking distance of the hotel was giving 1750COP per $1 US dollar.
Three weeks prior I joined LAC (Latin American Cupid) and had a list of 10 contacts but narrowed it down to three, with the first being my plan A. Plan B and C never showed. I was hoping to repeat last years experience, an amazing GFE experience with a non-pro and solid 8. In fact I still kept in touch but decided not to visit her in Barranquilla and instead try a new experience with my plan A who happens to be from Barranquilla too. She showed up and looked amazing a perfect 10. She is 21 years. 5'6" about 110lbs, light skinned with long black hair, thin waist and flat stomache, nice natural chest, great legs and an ass to die for. And super sweet. She reminded me of last year's GFE but better. I don't know what's going on in Barranquilla but they do have the best natural looking and sweetest women I have ever met.
Plan A this visit got dressed so we could go out and have dinner. OMFG, she looked amazing in a skin tight mini dress and heels. Everywhere we went she got the attention from everyone. We had a nice romantic stroll and dinner at Plaza Santa Domingo (?) had a great seafood meal over a bottle of sangria. We talked about everything and anything, all the while thinking at the end of the night I will be in heaven while making love to her. After dinner we walked over to Tu Candelas and spent the rest of the night dancing over a bottle of Medellin Ron Rum and soda. She danced very good to everything and looked so sexy. We hugged a lot, touched each other and kissed LFK. Earlier when she first arrived she had a slight headache so I offered and gave her a nice FBSM non-sexual but I got to caress that lovely body of hers and used all my willpower to resist from coming on to her so quickly knowing that a full night of dinner, drinks, dancing and romance would bring me to her fruition.
We left the club about 3:30am and headed to my wonderful beachfront apartment en Laguito, courtesy of venproreviews, and was ready to make this night ingrained in memory for future playback. We had previously made plans for her to spend the entire time with me and she was looking forward to going sightseeing with me everywhere. She doesn't have kids and her older sister had met and married an american via LAC.
Back to the moment, as she went to the bathroom to change, I got comfortable on the bed and was ready for her. She came out of the bathroom in a pair of tiny short shorts and top. We started to LFK again and hugged. All of a sudden she stopped cold turkey, said it was too soon, that we have a few days to get to know each other more, and said goodnight. WTF! I was in shock. We were both buzzed from the alcohol and for a second I thought I was back in the states on a regular date with an american woman. Then realized not! I attempted to massage her and kiss her then finally reason with her but no go. I couldn't believe that I struck out after our amazing time together. I figured she wanted something serious and was probably influenced by her sister to hold out and win me over for a serious relationship. I wasn't ready to play this game and didn't give her any intention of being ready for something serious, just a good experience if the chemistry was there and friendship.

For sure that was marriage material, good report bro.

I understand your frustration and had to laugh with your WTF? Because you took her out on one date and had a great time but she wouldn't fuck you. Its easy for me to say but I probably would have to have given her one more night out! I got to give this girl a thumbs up! Sorry it didn't work out the way you wanted but I give this girl credit!

Wingman Fabio
So I was thinking of flying down for a week and enjoying some of what CTG has to offer. Read the forums and I've been once before. Saw some mention of Fabio the Wingman and thougt what th heck, couldn't hurt.
"The girls go from 200 dollars on."
And he's talking USD. WTH! I think he's thinking he's Tony II.
Jeez

I have been using Fabio and he is very honest and does what he says he is going to do, I don't think he is like Tony, Tony is a street hustler you have to keep an eye on at every single turn, Fabio is a very happy person, kind, educated with class. I used Tony and he bumped prices up on the drinks and everything way too much and the girls he brought weren't all that nice then that first night of my vacation I checked out girls by myself from some fine strip joints, and man! They were even more than 200 USD for the entire night plus the multa for them to leave the house and in my opinion LDV is getting a little expensive isn't it? Whats wrong with Electra, no more bargain after 3 AM LOL?

speedbump says elektra is reopening tonight according to their facebook page.
isis has opened and closed more than once for whatever reason, who knows what the reasoning behind elektra closing is, maybe aldo took a vacation during slow season.

I haven't seen a lot of talk about $$. Can other members talk about what they have been paying?
-
Prices vary depending on girl and yourselves. My TLN record is 100-150 K COP for very nice ones but not top shelf. Any transaction facilitator will try to add the same amount to your bill if you play their game. Don't use them or use them but play your game. I have seen very few top girls in CTG and they charged 200K COP for ST, and I have seen them doing at least 2 ST's in one evening, so $200 may sound reasonable.

I know it is possible to get some girls for that price you say in the States though you have to put your talking skills to work at high RPMs, Colombian girls are the same, you talk them into whatever you would like them to do, and if they dig or like you, you can probably get their pussies for even less than they are asking for, so it all depends on the way you approach latinas in Cartagena, good attitude thats my advice my friend.

[QUOTE=You Can;1342404]If you can get a flight for a good price, just ditch the all inclusive and stop talking about hotels. Cartagena is best to have Apartment. That is my advice to you. Good luck![/QUOTE]Thanks for the good advices everyone. I bought a flight from Jan 2 to Jan 10.
I will be looking for an apartment and will read the posts to see where to find good pussy.

I am heading to Cartagena Nov 14 and I can't wait to get there. I rented a condo from Juan Ventura for 95. 00 per night including the maid. I could get one for 75. 00 but I prefer the one I got for a little more. Its a nice apartment. I will post reports day by day while I am there, one it gives me something to do instead of getting lost in a bottle of rum and 2 names and places will be fresh in my mind, not altered by the extreme amounts of Rum that I consume while I am there.

One bullet grazed Fao, targeted individual in critical condition. The reason? Guy was running his mouth. It's Colombia.

Future Travel
First, please guys don't flame me. I'm not a rookie, but I will be a Columbian rookie. I know the rules and I definitely RTFF. I have read about 50 pages each in the Medellin and Cartagena forums in preparation for my 10 night trip at the end of February. I'm wondering what the advantages of one over the other and whether I should split the time in the two locations or just stay in one location. I appreciate any feedback.
Thanks!

Most people have a different take on these two cities. You can't go wrong with splitting your trip up because then you can experience both cities. But for me I could easily and have spent 10 days in Cartagena. I am not really into street walkers and strip clubs, definitely am not into casas. I prefer the way LDV and Elecktra along with other bars do it in Cartagena. I enjoy spending my days on the beach (Cartagena beach is nothing great but I still enjoy it) just being able to sit on a sandy beach and watch all the girls in there bikinis and drinking I can't get enouph of it. There are plenty of girls walking the beach if you want one for the afternoon. Usually after a day at the beach I feel pretty good and have had a nice amount of rum in me and I will head home and take a nice nap from say 6 pm to 11 pm and then I will get dressed and head out. I love that I can get a nice dinner all hours of the night and into the next morning here. I usually head up to Requisimo and eat or just head rite to LDV and get a table and a bottle of rum. From there I can relax and check out which girl I want for the night or just a couple hours. Because the party doesn't stop till 6 or 7 am or anytime before. I pretty much do this every day. Some nights I mix in the walled city and regular little bars (like a german bar in Getsemani (SP) but I neverr got bored and always mix up my days and nights. Its always an adventure. But I am a drinker and Party guy down there so it always flys by to fast. One other note its Colombia, not Columbia. Have a great trip and feel free to PM for any info I didn't answer.

Some nights I mix in the walled city and regular little bars (like a german bar in Getsemani (SP) but I neverr got bored and always mix up my days and nights. Its always an adventure. But I am a drinker and Party guy down there so it always flys by to fast. One other note its Colombia, not Columbia. Have a great trip and feel free to PM for any info I didn't answer.[/QUOTE]I would definitely agree with this poster, You Can.
If you're into the fun and partying till the wee hours of the morning, Cartagena is definitely more your destination.
Like he says, the beach is not the greatest, but it does the trick for watching and chattin pretty girls and soaking some sun.
Though you can party too in Medellin, it's not 7 days a week like Cartagena.
In Medellin you can definitely find cheaper PFP though, just depends on what you're into.
You could hit Cartagena first, party like a rock star for 5 days or so, if you're diggin the vibe and meet some keepers (muchachas) , then stay, if you want to beat feet and relax a bit more, see and feel a different vibe, go from the carribean beach to the hills, then move on to Medellin.
Be flexible, for me it works best.
Have fun!

Spanish for gringos
My guide in Ctg sent me this funny thing and I'd like to share it with you fellas, please read below and see how you make sounds while reading English words and you can actually say something in Spanish LOL, it can be helpful though.
-—-—-
Boss I wanted to take the time to teach you a few common spanish words in a very funny way.
There's always something to learn or to try, many times you need to say some phrases in Spanish, but you don't know how to say them, don't worry, your problems have ended, if your are a gringo and you don't know how to speak Spanish, it'll be helpful in your learning. For an instance, we took from it some common phrases, just try and you're going to see the difference and how easy it is to speak Spanish.
(léanlo en ingles, esta genial!) (read in english to look for the sound of the spanish word, it's fun)
1. Boy as and are = Voy a cenar = I'm going to have dinner.
2. N L C John = en el sillon = on the armchair
3. Be a hope and song = viejo panzon = fat old man.
4. Who and see to seek ago = Juancito se cagó = Little John is a chickenshit. (jajaja. Coño que bueno)
5. S toy tree stone = estoy triston = I'm kind a sad.
6. Lost trap eat toss = los trapitos = the little rags
7. Desk can saw = descanso = (I) rest.
8. As say toon as = aceitunas = olives.
9. The head the star mall less stand dough = deje de estar molestando = stop bugging me.
10. See eye = si hay = yes we have.
11. T and s free o? = tienes frio = are you cold?
12. T N S L P P B N T S O = Tienes el pipi bien tieso = you have an erection.
13. Tell o boy ah in cruise tar = Te lo voy a incrustar = I'm going to insert it in you.
Be happy, Life's good!

Apts and hotels
[QUOTE=Hillbilly69;1345894]Contact Mery for an apartment. Maybe even send a deposit to make sure she saves you one. Get a 20 dollar memberhip here so someone who has an apartement there can contact you.[/QUOTE]There are actually 2 rental seasons, Dec 27-Jan 2 and Jan 3-14, prices are high for anything, especially in Laguito or castille, Boca grande might be a little cheaper. Apts that are nice in Laguito are $200-$800 a day, only a few gringos will pay that but Colombians from Medellin, Bogata will, no problem. By the way, best weather in Cartagena starts late December until April, almost cloudless, high winds in Feb / March but nothing like the summer heat. Best chica time is early December, mannnny chicas from all over Colombia on break from school and need tuition or Christmas money.

The " chica union" at the Del Rey boycotted my ass. I was sticking with my 70usd tln price with BBBJ and they weren't having it. Fortunately my boy took me to HLH and the girls were nicer and more reasonable. One older gentleman I was sitting next to at the Del Rey disappeared for an hour with two fine Ticas. He paid 240usd to the both of them just to eat pussy for an hour. Fuck the Del Rey and those rip-off broads.

Stunner's (9/10s) in CTG over the holidays
So, following the recent posts. I have another question. With all the women coming up to CTG for the holidays, what nightclubs (not strip clubs) might you find the hottest / high-end, well-to-do, girls partying?

I love 6, 7or 8's I understand a guys need to have a beautiful girl but really I don't give a fuck about the most beautiful girl, give me a fun decent looking girl who is into me and I am happy.

If it happens good, but I am fine with a girl that digs me, and there plenty out there. I couldn't give a fuck if there a 10.

I have had plenty of 9s, and a few 10s, and have found all but one of them to be of the starfish type. The one GFE I had with a 9 was in BAQ, and she was just starting out.
The only exception I make is in a casa run. Then it is more of me picking the pretty girl with a nice smile as a GFE is not what what I expect to find in that kind of a setting. In the rare chance a real hottie is into me than I quickly extract her phone number for the more preffered off site action.
I think being with the 9s or 10s is more of an ego thing while going for the less spectagular girl brings the coveted GFE into a better chance for sucess.
A little off topic, but I have noticed quite a few posters paying extra for DATY. I have done my share of DATY, but only if the session is going great, and then I feel I'm doing her a favor as she is getting pleasure from it. I never ask in advance for that or besos as to me besos are part of the GFE, and should never be asked for in the barganing part of the event. The only thing I ask for in advance is the BBBJ. For me without the BBBJ I would just pass, and look further. Sure you may say why do I ask for a BBBJ, and not besos or DATY. My reasoning is besos and DATY are part of the GFE while a BBBJ is more of a must for me.

Mr. Babillas is a local legend, but in reality about the last place I'd go if I was trying to get laid. Fragma would be better, or Babar, or Cafe Del Mar, or Tucandela,
Any of these places will have regular non-pros mixed in with some p4p girls. YMMV depending on spanish skills and your game in general.
If I'm strictly looking to p4p, I'd go to LDV where it's like shooting fish in a barrel. But that's just me.

Fabio "the best wingman and tour guide"
Holla CartaAngel I am a new subscriber and I recently signed up just to thank you and everybody on this website, I followed your recommendation a while back when I read your msg about who to use as a tour guide when in ctg, I went ahead and used Fabio last week, and he did a great job, I met a really cute chica non-pro through him, I am very much looking forward to seeing her again soon and her family too.
It was funny I was pretty nervous to be in a foreign country like Columbia but Ctg was fine it was not too bad, beautiful city. First day Fabio showed us around we went to some casas and had sex until I couldn't see anymore Lmao! We also went to Playa Holliwood the next day and it was dead I liked the old city better, to me laguito is boring, I rented a nice house with a private pool and Jacuzzi with my home feller that my wingman took us to, it is right in Getsemani near Mr babilas, by the way guys FYI when going to tu candela disco beware of Trannies I almost kissed one of those dudes in women's clothing yuck! I heard Medellin is a good place to go that will be my next stop I will check with you later about another wingman as good as Fabio in Medellin, I might just take him with me next time, thanks.

You don't find many "well-to-do girls" whoring themselves out openly anywhere in world that I know of, though I'm not a well seasoned monger by any means. I'd throw in Bhoga Bar into the mix of places with normal girls.
LDV and Elektra (or whatever has opened up in its place) are the go to spots for p4p free-lancers.

Paracite you have no argument here but it cracks me up when these guys, some my friends go up to the best looking girls in some of these P4P clubs that do have some real lookers and pick one up, (one) over priced because the girl had no interest in the guy and (two) didn't even enjoy being with the guy then he wonders why she was a lousy lay? Its pretty simple she didn't even want to be with the guy in the first place! Now if I hit it off with a really hot looking one great! But I have to admit I rather have the 7 thats a ball of fun and there plentyful. I don't have the time to wait for a great looking one! But you go my man, if you can find them good for you.
I had one really great one 2 trips back in Cartagena, one of the nicest girls I met and a clear 10. But that is rare, she was fantastic.

Just a note, in LDV quite a few girls are cold dead lesbians, moreover on occasion you may find yourself in competition with a local or other LA country gentlemen and in the Old City clubs the crowd is much younger. There are very few divas there and without good cards in hands there is too much effort to take them out. However kudos to anyone who can dance, talk and beer them away to a decent place.

Fabio
Thinking about hiring the tour guide named Fabio that has been recommended on a few sights. I am a first timer to Cartagena and am not extremely confident in my Spanish. However, the price seems a little high. I'm not a budget traveler, but don want to get taken to he cleaners either. I will be there for six nights by the way.
Any advice?

GreenTree
Hi, I have no connection to any tour guides there, but have been there a number of times and I really don't think you need a "guide". Please follow the previous info and map. You go to the beach during the day, maybe mix in some sightseeing, eat either high end or low end, both are readily available, then mix your nights with LDV and the regular clubs in centro. There will also be alot of us gringos down there at that time, its not hard to meet up with someone on the beach, etc. By the way my spanish is poor, but I always manage. I'm headed down for my 5th trip, its a great time, you won't be dissappointed. By the way, where are those daily reports You can promised?

There are two guides / hustlers mentioned on ISG that have extremely suspicious "testimonials". Fabio is one of them.
Check the guy giving the reference. Only one post on the forum, and it's to promote some tour guide.
Check CartaAngel's posts. He's pimping this one guide all the time, or trying to be the middleman on rental apartments.
He has good English and makes an effort to disguise it. Once you look closely you can see traces where he writes like a Colombian.
You can draw your own conclusions from that.

He is a English speaking guide as well.
I would personally walk to the beach find a girl with a big set of tits to be my guide.
On another note if Fabio is posting he should realize it is acceptable to do so.
Just as long as Bruce don't get a username and offer child care services in Cartagena we should be alright.

Just don't make the mistake of missing the beach on Sunday, it is usually off the hook. By the looks of some girl's Facebook pages there seems to be some " Vacations " going on now! LMAO
Be sure to get phone numbers of LDV and Elektra girls so you can bang them by day for alot less price and don't assume that you see a girl at the beach one day that she will be back again, gather numbers.
Don't forget your soft cooler for the beach and stake out your chair for the afternoon, don't just walk through and assume there is nothing going on, approach the girls yourself or offer them a beer.
Throw in a few Gatorades to go with your beer at the beach, the sun and heat will beat you if you let them.
If you arrive early in the afternoon at the beach and don't have time to get a SIM card just send Emily to get one for you and send some pesos her way, she does manicures, pedicures and massages .
Best place to get your beer, ice and such is the Exito express near Caribe Hotel in Bocagrande if your buying alot, it is walking distance.
If a girl smiles and waves in Laguito by day it probably isn't because your handsome it is probably because she is working, keep that in mind .
If the price of a beach girl is over 100k pesos your getting middled, leave the beach then call her and let Tony stiff the next sucker.
If you are confused as to which are working girls and which aren't ask Emily at the beach.
If you are one of Tony's chairs or cabanas don't give him more than 15k for the day, he will ***** and whine, just give him the money and walk off the beach.
Make sure to have a beer at Plaza Santo Domingo, Cafe Del Mar and Casa De Cerbasa at night just for the views and people watching.

Cartagena report
Just a heads up I will be posting a full report on my trip very soon. I had a blast!

10 photos
I finally was able to recover some pictures from my trip in July. These pics go along with this report:

Like I said in the report, I didn't find amazingly hot girls, but they were still good enough to poke. Unfortunately all except for 1 showed old battle wounds from pregnancy upon closer inspection. Colombiana's need to learn about the pill! Looking forward to my upcoming trip to Havana.

Cartagena- Observations From a Recent Trip
I went to CTG from Nov 5-11. This was my 5th trip to CTG, but my first in over 2 years. This was during the Colombia National Beauty Pageant and Cartagena's "Independence" Day. I was in Cartagena during the same time period in 2009. Instead of doing an actual "trip report" in my previous fashion, I thought I would just give my observations.
First, IMO, CTG has changed for the worse. I remember when I was first reading the CTG forum 3 years ago, the true CTG vets at that time were lamenting how CTG had changed with increase in chica prices and poorer services than what they were accustomed to. However, my first time in CTG 2009, I loved it so much that I went there 3 times in that year. It was my favorite place to go. But, now it's my turn to remember the "good ole times" with my experience from this trip leading me to question if I would want to go back again any time soon, or ever. So, here goes:
- LDV; Girls much more hardcore, starting out asking for 250K and "negotiating' down to 200K, but very specific for 1 hour. Previous experience in 2009 was starting off at 150-200k, easily negotiating down to 120-130K for 2+ hours and with BBBJ included (a must for me). Also, drink prices in LDV significantly higher than what it was 3 years ago.
- ISIS: Still in Centro but a new location and now very upscale. Very hot girls. $250K for 1 hour (not on site, but nearby) , or 500K for TLN.
- ELECKTRA: Tried go in one night around 4am early in the week (closes at 5am) , but the door guy wanted to charge me 10K entrance fee. When the doors opened and I saw the place dead, I declined. Never went back.
- PLEYCLUB: 250K onsite, can negotiate to meet the girls next day for less. Too much plastic for my taste.
- Chicas Lindas (and several clubs in the same general area) : Ok girls, some gems seen if you look real hard. Can't remember all the 'in house" prices, but 80K multa to take out and then the price for the girl. If you go, be sure to check out the clubs around the corner (walk out of Chicas Lindas, turn left and walk through gas station parking lot; walk another 5 minutes or so and there are several more clubs on the left). Caters mostly to locals.
- Rosario House: First time in this place although it's been around for a long time and apparently caters to the sailors that come to CTG port. $75 USD onsite. Some gems, but high mileage kind of place.
- Centro (inside and outside of Tu Candela) : On the weekends, there were several girls hanging around just outside of Tu Candela, apparently not being allowed in. I recognized several from the above establishments hanging around on the benches. First girl I talked to wanted "200k for 1 hour" and I lost my interest. I'm not sure how the scene is during the week. There wasn't an entrance fee around 10pm when I entered, but I noticed that others were being charged an entrance fee around midnight, maybe earlier. (If you are a drinker and don't want to pay the 20K+/drink inside of Tu Candela, get the drinks for much less from the guy selling from the cart right outside of the club).
- Playa Hollywood: It used to be that I would see some girls on the beach I wouldn't see anywhere else in CTG, but this time, it was all girls that either worked at LDV or one of the other establishments, asking 200K."Tony Number 1" is still the same, but he got pissed at me because I wouldn't play is game anymore. Most of us that have been to Playa Hollywood in CTG have played into Tony's hand and eventually got smart. So here is what I've learned:
There is now a "bar' area in Playa Hollywood, with each vendor being their own business. There is a woman, an old guy, and a young guy that are setup on the right side of the bar. The old guy and the woman will charge you so that Tony gets his commission if they know he has served you before (and probably because of his pestering). The young guy (name is "Jugo") won't do that. Here are some examples of the price differences between getting your drinks from Jugo directly as opposed to Tony's mark ups: Aguila / Aguila Light- 2K vs 3k; Club Colombia- 3K vs 4K; Pina Coloda and Coco Loco (which the girls on the beach love and Tony "suggests").10K vs 15K. You can sit at the bar, or on the beach chairs with table and shade for free and not be harassed by people wanting you to buy things form them. Additionally, it is a better view IMO to scope the entire beach scene out. For food, if you buy from the lady directly behind this "bar', a plate is 10K vs 15K from Tony.
I was told by one of the beach girls, that if Tony "introduces" you to a girl, he will be expecting a commission of 30K (paid by the girl) so the chica has to factor this in to the price she agrees to. (If I remember correctly, in 2009 Tony's commission used to be 10-20K). As many others have already written, if you see a girl on the beach talk to her yourself. If Tony calls a girl for you, it's most likely just going to be a working girl that's not on the beach right then and if you don't like her, you will be asked to pay for the Taxi for her.
You can decide for yourselves if these price differences really matter, but as you can see, there are significant price differences in food, drinks, and chicas in Playa Hollywood if you use Tony.
-FABIO the Tour Guide: I met Fabio through a newbie that hired him and who I befriended in CTG. Fabio speaks excellent English and in his early 30's. He tries to have you hire him on a "per day" basis to be at your disposal. He will drive you around, introduce you to girls and can be your translator. Here are some facts to know about Fabio. First, he used to work for some marriage agency in CTG and has a list and pics of "girls" in his computer. However, he grossly exaggerated how hot the girls were. The girls were either of the type looking for a real relationship (and therefore would take some wining and dining to get laid) , or were just working girls from the casas that are frequented by the locals. In addition to whatever daily or hourly rate you agree upon, you may need to feed him (if you eat) , get him something to drink (if you drink, but mostly water) , pay any entrance fees, and most importantly, may have his commission tacked on to your final bill if he takes you to some strip clubs. In addition, I think he said he works as an English teacher during the day, so his availability may vary from day to day.
If you factor in all of the above, I think Fabio's true value would to be to someone who doesn't speak any Spanish and is a first time visitor to CTG and who would like someone to tour the outlying casas, going from one to the next without having to get a taxi. If you wanted to have him drive you the Barranquilla for a night, that can be negotiated with him.
So, in summary, Cartagena IMO has become much more expensive and hardcore than what I fondly remember from my past trips. Hopefully, the information I passed on above will be helpful to CTG newbies and subsequent trip reports from other CTG vets may give truer refection of CTG today.

Places to stay for large groups
I'll be headed down to ctg in a couple of months with 10. 15 friends that are looking to get the full Cartagena experience. One problem I am running into is where to stay. Does anyone know of a very large house / mansion that can hold 10+ people and is located in the old city or bocagrande? We have a sizable budget, so it's more of finding a good house that includes a staff than a cost issue.
Otherwise, any recommendations for a large hotel that is centrally located and prepago friendly? Budget would probably be $200 per night per room for hotel. I've always stayed in apts for 2 or 3 people in ctg, so this is new territory for me. Any help is appreciated.

Playa Hollywood
[QUOTE=CartaAngel;1354542]So I guess Tony's BS is over, I heard Jayson is the man on Playa Hollywood now to spot the prepagos chicas and for chairs, drinks or whatever have you, you can rely on Jairo.[/QUOTE]With any "intermediary" on the Playa Hollywood scene, you can expect markups in the prices of the chicas, food, and drinks. If your are on this beach for the first time, it may be ok to go ahead and use someone, but you should know how you are paying for the "services" of these type of intermediaries. I will admit, that on my first trip in 2009, I was intimidated trying to talk to the girls on this beach (as opposed to to the bar / club scene) and used Tony the entire week I was there. Regarding the prepagos, any chica or group of chicas around Tony or Jayson (I don't know "Jairo") are going to be working girls and all these guys really would do is call the chica over from wherever they are sitting to sit by you so that they get commissions on the drinks, food, and chicas. There is nothing wrong with this as long as you know the game upfront. But, it's just as easy to walk over to a chica or group of chicas and just saying hello and offering a drink because they are are going to be working girls in that part of the beach. (Wouldn't consider all the girls to be be working girls outside of this area in Playa Hollywood).
Also, a little clarification (thanks to "Fabio" that I referenced before) : a "prepago" is a girl that will have sex for money once in a while (maybe the equivalent of an "escort"?) and has an other job or is a student and a "puta" is a girl that works in the casas and other high mileage establishments and its their "job" (the equivalent of a "prostitute"). I'm not sure what you would call the girls that come to CTG for a short period of time to work in LDV, Pleyclub, or ISIS, but then again, I wouldn't consider these to be high mileage places.

Police Corruption or thieves in police uniforms?
I was informed by my friends in Cartagena that a very popular jewelry shop next to LDV got robbed by 2 guys and a woman who passed themselves off as cops, this turned out to be a bad situation for the Cartagena police department which is losing credibility, check out this link from Cartagena's local newspaper [url]http://m.eluniversal.com.co/cartagena/sucesos/buscan-responsables-de-atraco-joyeria-100115[/url]

Fantastic Trip
I don't post much, but appreciate the info here so wanted to contribute.
I don't like to waste money or flash it around like an idiot, but I am not really a budget monger. I respect the guys who are extremely frugal and ingenious at finding bargains. But I thought it might be useful to also post some info for guys who are ok spending more at times.
1. There has been discussion on this board about Fabio. I tried him. Many guys who post don't want or need a wingman. However, if you decide you do, you will satisfied with Fabio. He's a stand up guy and a professional who works hard to please and is honest. He will take you out for a night of drinking and show you around, he will perform concierge services like arranging excursions, he will make all your apartment arrangements and he will constantly show up with chicas as often as you want-2 times a day. 3 times a day; shape, color, size, age, whatever you want.
2. Spent first night out on the town. After a few drinks, hit the casas. Did a quick hit at one of the ST spots and then swung by Pleyclub, by now around 2 am, where I ordered carry out. A beautiful and very friendly 30-yr old from Cali. Very light skin. Claimed to be doing temporary work to pay for a medical procedure (nasal something). By far the oldest on the trip, but also easily the best GFE. She stayed until about noon the next day and was up for several rounds. This is very expensive. Can't remember exact amount so don't hold me to it, but I think the salida was around $250 (US). I tipped her separately at the end, which I think was optional. As much as I enjoyed, it was the last time I made it to the casa scene. Just too easy having Fabio show up with room service whenever needed. And far less expensive.
3. I also did an overnight trip to an island and stayed at the Majagua Resort. Took a companion. Also a very pricey activity. Overnight hotel, food, drink, boat transport: $350 (US) ish. It is good if you feel like getting away to some place isolated, quiet and different. Its a very small resort. At every meal, we saw all the other guests there. There was a large family gathering: mom and dad and about 4 couples of their kids in their 20's; one normal couple in their 30's; and 2 couples (of which I was part of one) with Anglo guy in his 50's and a Colombiana in her early 20's. Some might find that awkward.
4. I spent 2 days on the beach without companion. On the first I went to the famous Hollywood Beach and encountered Tony. As advised here I settled on 15k for cabana. On my first drink order Tony said,"Don't worry. Pay later." I said,"Here's some business advice. Never serve a drunk cocktails on credit." He laughed and said ok. So I paid every time rather than get into the drink count problem advised here. Every time I ordered a drink, he'd try some hustle. How about a drink for Tony? No tip? Bring your change later? Etc. But every time I'd counter to keep him from setting the terms. He was relentless in bringing girls by. Quite a variety and some very nice, but I declined. I did, however, have a lot of drinks so I'm sure Tony made out fine. As I was leaving I sat down with him and he poured a few drinks gratis from the end of his bottle of Medellin Rum and chatted it up. I enjoyed. The other beach day I spent on a different beach, and got a hustle similar to Tony's, but less aggressive. Drink prices the same. Was offered chicas but declined.
5. Other than a couple other excursions, I spent most of the time hanging at my apartment or nearby bars and restaurants with the chicas Fabio dropped off. All business is done directly with them. Typically they didn't ask or negotiate. Just took what I gave them when I sent them off, which was around $150k-$200k (COP) for ST, $250-$300k TLN depending on quality and amount of time spent. A couple did have specific demands up front which were too much, so we negotiated to an amicable agreement. Quality was unbelievable. Almost all were very enthusiastic about the work and eager to please.
If you get a chance to go, you'll enjoy!

Back In Cartagena NOW!
Observing a few contrasts from my last extended stay 4 years ago.
First off I'll give myself a little intro being new to the Forum. I stayed in Cartagena for about 6 months back in 2008, then spent a lot of time in Asia and now I am finally back and plan to stay a year or so with a few side trips around south / central America.
I've only taken two trips into centro since arriving and I was shocked at a few obvious changes even though I haven't sampled anything so I might be speaking a little early. The biggest obvious change I see right now is a serious increase in quantity and quality of women specifically in the area around the clock tower entrance (Puerto Reloj?). Starting outside of the walls on the walkway opposite the clock tower gate with all the benches and a few fountains, had a steady flow of workers from just after dark until midnight when I was leaving, probably much later too. Just in front of the entrance they were just loitering, two days in a row, and just inside opposite Tu Candela on the benches where you drink the cheap street-vendor beers there were at least a Dozen or two, some easily in the 8-9 range and most were still well above average. Secondly, from my observations many of these girls seemed to be operating through pimps rather than touts but I could be wrong and more surprising I didn't witness any successful hook-ups, more like guys getting shut down but for sure these girls were pros and happy to fondled and chatted up even if you didn't buy them a cheap-on-the-street beer. After walking the city for an hour or so on both nights, getting lost and drunk trying to find Bananas and my other old favorites, I felt like the working girl presence is more than double what I was seeing back in 08' at least on the streets outside the bars. And the non-pros I've met in the streets in the last few days seem to be a lot more open to getting to know people. I got 2 phone numbers in 2 days with ZERO effort. Maybe its the season, maybe its because my Spanish is better this go-around, I certainly didn't get any younger or better looking!
I'll eventually start checking out the bars and reporting more and what kind of rock-bottom prices I get quoted even though it seems this whole area is well covered in this thread, well done guys. I might give a different perspective as I have always been a cheap charlie and basically never go over 100k / 50USD for a take home all-nighter, I walk more than I taxi, and drink / eat where it's cheapest most of the time, plus I usually end up with a normalish GF scenario as I am here semi-long term and there are plenty of these opportunities if you are here more than week and speak the most basic Spanish. Anyone wanting to hook up with girls other than regular pros, I'll share a little secret, Badoo is a very very good free website and as I can now see, well represented in Cartagena in addition to lot of other destinations. You could probably even have a GF with plan B and C on standby before you arrive (I did) if you want to save cash or have an option a little less mercenary than the bar / street girls.
Being new to the city all over again trying to feel out the 'scene' and not really knowing anyone yet I'm also very keen to hook up with any folks from the Forum for a drink / hang out and for anyone new visiting I could probably be a good wing-man with plenty of free time on my hands and having had several months scoping this place out albeit a few years ago, plus I speak a bit of Spanish (enough to easily translate a transaction and get around) , not to mention I've sworn off any paid full-service situations for myself for the next few months until my regular GF leaves town, even though I'm still interested in checking out the scene in the mean time.
As I get more connected with the scene in Centro where I do 90% of cruising I'll post any updates and anyone out there in Cartagena now or visiting in December please let me know!

Electra last Saturday
Once again drinking in clock tower Plaza next to 'Donde Fidel's' till the wee hours eye-balling the talent and buscars and tourists (a favorite pastime of mine). My report a few days back about plenty of "8's" in that area outside of Tu Candelas was either beer goggles or the scene changed a lot on Saturday, now I would say just enough quality to choose from, but nothing standing out. Just outside the city across the street from the clock-tower on the benches I was actually getting what might have been the $5 dollar skanks from the park walking up, grabbing my junk, and saying "you want fucky-fucky". I was trying to get prices but they wanted me to follow them somewhere for further discussion and I wasn't leaving my little bench. I don't ever remember anything like that when I was here 4 years ago. This is going on around midnight, when I was honestly going to walk home, but alas I had a few more drinks and chatted up some Colombian Tourists and by 4AM (or so not sure) I started following this mob to Elektra, however you spell it, its 2 blocks from the clock tower entrance on the map.
1) We all got frisked / searched on the way there by the policia (see note below)
2) At around 4am I didn't notice anyone paying a cover charge.
3) Again, plenty to choose from even as it got closer to 5am.
4) Beers were 10, 000 COP, this is painful for a cheap charlie.
5) One of the Colombian tourists I was with was getting quoted 100K by some average girls, I assume for ST and also assume that I the Gringo might hear a different number quoted to me but who knows.
After drinking outside most of the night before Elektra I was actually keen to dance a little but the girls there, as many as were approaching me would give me about 10 seconds of ass grinding and then ask if I want to fuck and any thing short of a yes resulted in a quick cold-shoulder. Not that I blame them I suppose but it really does seem to be all business these days.
I discovered a new scam as well. One of the low-life touts that tries to steer people in to Isis from the Clock-tower Plaza starts explaining to me that he has 'everything' which in Colombia if it isn't women it's probably a powdered stimulant, I quite often like to partake but this guy is way to shady and public so I say not now and oblige the hand shake before I walk off and he presses a small bag into my hand anyway that I didn't ask for and tells me I owe him 30, 000 COP! This guy was so shady / creepy / cracked out and with about 20 police standing around and I'm thinking no way but he won't take it back so I end up dropping it at his feet and walking away. I tell him I don't have any money so he will hopefully [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] off and he just keeps telling me, OK, give me 20, 000, then 10, 000 and eventually down to 2, 000 (1usd) , all the while sort-of grabbing my arm to stop me from walking off, unbelievable, all this for a bag that has god knows what in it but for sure it's not legit at 2, 000 COP. He follows me for a while telling me I'm going to have a serious problem with his boss or whatever who I eventually met later and explained everything too which resulted in the lower-level tout getting a little reprimanding. If anyone has tips on less shady ways to score PM me as my old connections are long gone. A little off topic for the forum I know but I thought it was worth a mention, I never saw this one pulled before and was glad to end up clean in the end considering the police checked us all on the way to Elektra later.

Which is better?
I'm planning a Colombia trip but can't decide on which city. I rttf! But I'm still undecided. Medellin sounds good but I like to go to semi-pro night clubs. I read Cartagena asking $160 for TLN. I'm definetly not paying that! Help me out! Also I speak a little Spanish and definetly want an apartment. Having a beach like Sousa is a plus but not mandatory. So where is ground zero for chicas in Colombia? Or should I stick with Sousa and AC?

Cartagena Nov 14 to 19 trip report
Well this trip report took a lot longer than I anticipated. I just got back from the Dominican and will post a report but let start with this report. Flew Spirit out of Atlantic City. I know a lot of people don't prefer Spirit but I never have had a problem and the price isn't bad depending on when you book. I Got roundtrip with big front seats all the way around and my carry on bag for less then 625. 00 not bad in todays times. Grabbed a couple bottles of Baileys in Ft. Lauderdale and was on my way. Rented a nice apartment from Juan in Playa Mar building for 95. Per night. My friend had a driver pick me up at the airport which is always nice having someone there thats a familiar face. Thanks Again! Went straight to check in and then down to the beach stopping to listen to some of Tonys bullshit. Well I hit pay dirt this day their was a real sweetheart sitting in the Chairs! Her name was Isabella, light skinned 20 years old. Damn was she nice. I took her to lunch at cabon de palo and she said she worked at Chica linda but was working the beach this day. After lunch I took her to my apartment where I got her naked, great body nice BBBJ and sex in multiple positions. Really nice 150, 000 pesos. Worth well more. Spent all in all with lunch etc over 3 hours with her. Great time. Took a nice long sleep and hit the streets around 12 midnight. This night in my opinion LDV was loaded with plenty of nice looking women. I took a regular of mine named Cristina, I really like this girl. She is at best a 7. 5 in looks but I just really like her. Kept her the night with plenty of partying and sex sex sex. Woke around 10 and took her to breakfast and off she went.
I headed down to grab some alone time at Juan Valdez coffee shop and a great Cappucino. Then stopped at Bonys restaurante for a couple drinks. By now it was around 3 so I headed down to see what Tony had by his chairs. God was giving me nothing but luck this trip so far. Another 20 year old named Juanitta. I love these Colombian girls! Light skinned, no kids. A solid 8. 5 as by the way was Isabella, took this one to Requisimo and then more of the same in the apartment. Again my nap to around 10 pm.
This night I headed out to a little German restaurate / bar in Getsamani. Lot of nice people drinking and eating bratwurst and such. I like this plaace and there was also a band playing. After this I headed over to Fragma in the walled city where I just plain got lucky with a girl named Karlee. This one was a solid 10 not that I even care that much about that. She was with a girlfriend and for whatever reason really took a liking to me. We drank a bottle of Rum and I offered her 200, 000 and she said no problem at all. By the way this girl spoke great english which you probably know is rare. So this was great because my spanish sucks. This night couldn't get any bettter. Great BBBJ, sex, partying you name it we did it. She left in morning after breakfast. Fuck was she nice. Got her number and email. She was one of the great ones I've had. Class act.

Good Report!
I was in CTG in March, I didn't enjoy it as much as I enjoyed the DR. The girls were to strict on that one hour shit, and I let Tony overcharge me! I"m soo ashamed! LOL. However, after 3 consecutive trips to the DR, (I'll be there again in DEc) I'm ready for a change. I may have to try CTG again, sin tony. Good report!
[QUOTE=You Can; 1357903]Well this trip report took a lot longer than I anticipated. I just got back from the Dominican and will post a report but let start with this report. Flew Spirit out of Atlantic City. I know a lot of people don't prefer Spirit but I never have had a problem and the price isn't bad depending on when you book. I Got roundtrip with big front seats all the way around and my carry on bag for less then 625. 00 not bad in todays times. Grabbed a couple bottles of Baileys in Ft. Lauderdale and was on my way. Rented a nice apartment from Juan in Playa Mar building for 95. Per night. My friend had a driver pick me up at the airport which is always nice having someone there thats a familiar face. Thanks Again! Went straight to check in and then down to the beach stopping to listen to some of Tonys bullshit. Well I hit pay dirt this day their was a real sweetheart sitting in the Chairs! Her name was Isabella, light skinned 20 years old. Damn was she nice. I took her to lunch at cabon de palo and she said she worked at Chica linda but was working the beach this day. After lunch I took her to my apartment where I got her naked, great body nice BBBJ and sex in multiple positions. Really nice 150, 000 pesos. Worth well more. Spent all in all with lunch etc over 3 hours with her. Great time. Took a nice long sleep and hit the streets around 12 midnight.

Cartagena. The hard way
i managed to get to cartagena last weekend. because that was the next port of call for the container vessel that picked us up. we were only there thirty hours, but it was long enough for a couple of us to get out looking for a decent bordello after dinner. i'd heard of a "casa rosario" from somewhere, and asked a cabbie; but he took us instead to a place called the 'casa rocio drill. '
the house looks like a house. it's in the bruselas district, at calle benjamin herrera no. 24-34, a 10k-peso trip out from the clock tower. decent enough place inside, with a long main room back of the foyer and the bar; there were maybe 10 girls there and a half-dozen or more clients, and three girls came in to give us a chance to buy them a drink when we sat down. one of them, emila if i recall correctly, was very much to my taste; slim and small-breasted with nice long legs and a face that reminded me of the young diana rigg (1960s vintage, emma peel of 'the avengers' tv series). i was willing to pay a premium for her.
the casa charged 50k pesos for the room, which was a decent room with fresh sheets on the bed and an attached bathroom. her fee was 150k, and i didn't demur.
aside from no dfk kissing. which i regret. this was a good gf experience for me. her figure is splendid; her tits, maybe a b cup in size, firm and youthful and no sign of them being bolt-ons. she might well be the most beautiful woman i've ever enjoyed in the sack, and she was gentle and thoughtful and well-skilled. the mouth and tongue work she denied to my mouth and tongue, she well played to my little man-tits and later to my cock. even though it was a cbj, she was skilled and capable and made it feel very good; after a while of mouth work, she mounted me and rode me cowgirl until i tried to turn her under me. and came in that process. afterward we talked and cuddled for a good while, then she gave me a very good back-rub including walking on my back. then more cuddling, till i decided it was time to gather up my shipmate and head back to the hotel for a few hours' sleep.
we didn't go to cartagena intentionally, but i enjoyed the place and i may go back on my own some day. but it's not the place i'd go for a monger's vacation. from what i hear, it would be better to spend a couple of days there as a straight tourist, maybe a 'casa' visit or two. then go up to medellin for the real cattin' around.
(ps: what brought me to cartagena? here's the full story: http://www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=70919)

Cartagena Nov 14 to 19 trip report continued
Ok here is the rest of trip even though only the faces change. After Karlee left it is now Friday Morning. I went and had another cappacino at Juan Valdez, its really good so I had two. By the way the weather was great my entire trip. I was still thinking about Karlee she was so fun and spectacular in every way. After coffee (I think the coffee place name is actually Isabellas its like one block from Cabon de Palo. As a matter of fact its definitely Isabellas coffee shop. Oh well its not that important but great coffee. I go to carbon de palo a lot its pricey but good. I always forget the exact spelling but its caty corner to the Amertride hotel (SP) its good and I love getting a pitcher of Sangria at this place. I sit there for hours just watching the sites. Then headed over to Bonys again I like this place the owner is there often and is a former boxer. Great people and great business the guy really does a serious business. Great employees! After this it was like 4pm now and went and talked to Tony for awhile but he really had nothing there so I headed on back to my room with no chica. I made myself a drink and went down to sit on the little fountain area in front of my building. But no luck so by 5 or 6 headed up for nap empty handed which was fine by me. (Tony was saying earlier I will call someone for you, I said no) like I said I think I needed a little break so I took the nap. Woke up around 10:30 and went to walled city out side the hard rock bar sat out there watching the dancers and people watching. Then headed over to Cafe Delmar, by the way they have some sexy girls dancing here which is nice viewing. Dressed sexy. But nicely. Spotted a couple actually 3 girls sitting at a table and tried to make a little eye contact because wasnt sure what I was dealing with, couldn't get there attention so said what the fuck and told my waitress I wanted to by them a drink (which by the way are not cheap in this place but I really didn't travel couple thousand miles to be cheap.) Well thats all it took within 10 minutes they were all sitting with me, I honestly can't remember all three names but the girl that seemed to like me the best was Marianna 24 years old, said she had one kid. Very nice l00king girl, big round tits. Dressed very nice! A solid 8 After another round of drinks I was thinking how the fuck am I going to move to the next level with my fucked up spanish? I sure as fuck didn't want to take 3 girls to my room? I wasnt even sure if I was going to get the one (Marianna there) I wasnt even sure at this point if I should bring up money because I wasnt sure about this. So when they asked me where I was staying I said in Laguito in a aparmento, I said to Marianna would she like to come? She said sure! Well like I said my spanish sucks and it wasnt just Marianna coming it was all fucking three! I didn't want to say no no Just Marianna so I just went with it, I had plenty of party material, jut not to much liquor other than my baileys so I told driver to stop at Olypica where we went in and grabbed some beer and rum. Also a bottle of wine. Once we got back to the apartment they loved it and we had a blast. I finally asked Marianna if she was going to stay and she said sure. I said how much? She said it didn't matter (this is not the first time I have heard this and it can sometimes be a problem in the morning, but I said fuck it, I had a good feeling about this.) She said my friends go? I said unless they want to stay in my extra bedroom, its no problem! So by now it was like 5 am and they went in the adjacent room and I took Marianna in my room, showered great body, total GFE. Great night. Actually one of the best nights I ever hadd in Cartagena. In morning around 11 took them to Requismoo for lunch. This night was expensive between the drinks, party favors, olympica, lunch I spent some real fucking money this night! After lunch I took Marianna a side and out of view and handed her 200, 000 peso. She never looked at it and put it in her purse. Off they went, what a great night! Saturday I headed down to Bony and drank like a crazy fucker (I brought a bottle of Rum to beach and drank the whole fucking thing othere then what I gave away. Went back to apartment and passed out.
Woke around 12 midnight and headed to LDV feeling a little rufffffff and bought a bottle of rum and looked around. Plenty of talent! My girl Cristina walked in and was trying to go with me and I said no and she stormed out of the place she was pissed. But she will get happy again she likes me and I like her but I had differnt plans. Just sat around watching th scenery and ended up taken a girl named Maria a 6 at best but fun in the bed. I am not going to bullshit anyone this giirl is nothing real pretty but is fun. Took her for a couple hours to apartment and fucked her silly. Gave her 150, 000, I could definitely get this girl for 100, 000 but always give her 150, 000. She was more then happy she has one daughter 11 years old. Very nice person. She went on her way and I hit the sack.
Sunday my last day! I was beat the fuck up! Took it easy Sunday and couldn't help it, called Karlee and told her it was my last night did she want to come over later. Yes! Told her to just come to my apartment at midnight, this girl was so easy going. 12 phone rings she comes up and we never went out. She ordered some food from somewhere and it was all good. A great GFE and a great night. Breakfast with Karlee and off to the airport.
Another great trip, I love Cartagena and the women. Like I mentioned at the beginning of this report I just got back from the DR. I only went because my friends were going. In my opinion you just can't compare the night life and the women. Cartagena wins hands down especially if you don't mind putting some nice cloths on and being well groomed. I love the night life here. I will try to hit Cartagena again in February if funds permit. Happy traveling to all! Also Happy Holidays. I know I am not great at writing these reports but I do the best I can! Also my spelling sucks

Almost makes me want to go back to Cartagena haha.
Maybe, tough to leave Medellin with all the contacts.
Happy holidays!

Hats off

Without a doubt you are the man in CTG.
One day me and your good buddy from Denver will party again in CTG.

I was in Sousa for 30 days and I prefer it to Cartagena where the girls are too professionals and go way immediately after sex. Inside the LDV you cannot move around. The place is too small. For me better Sousa 10times.

Great trip report You Can. I was never able to figure out the Fragma scene, its hard to tell who may be working there and I just assumed they were all well off girls. Next time.

[QUOTE=HeadRack;1357212]I'm planning a Colombia trip but can't decide on which city. I rttf! But I'm still undecided. Medellin sounds good but I like to go to semi-pro night clubs. I read Cartagena asking $160 for TLN. I'm definetly not paying that! Help me out! Also I speak a little Spanish and definetly want an apartment. Having a beach like Sousa is a plus but not mandatory. So where is ground zero for chicas in Colombia? Or should I stick with Sousa and AC?[/QUOTE]If you think $160 is expensive for TLN, then MDE is quite a bit more expensive than that (for a quality TLN). MDE is cheap only if you stick to casas during the day and try to do TLNs using contacts.

[url]http://www.vivacolombia.co/[/url][/QUOTE]That's the one. They are local. Supposed to be the Spirit of Colombia. They had a black Friday special. Free luggage upgrade and cut the line for under 80k. Roundtrip from BOG to MDE! That's about $45! Normally, luggage will double the price of the ticket and express is another 10k I think. I'll see how it is when I get back in January.

Lousy service, cancelled flights, crappy seats etc. Then again, who cares if the flight is only 45 minutes long as most in country flights are very short.

For the most part you are going to pay around 100. 00us in Cartagena for TLN. But it can be more if the girl has no interest in being with you. It could easily be 200. Us These girls are nothing like the girls in the DR. If you dress nice, are you decent shape you will have no problem paying 100. 00 per night and personally if I didn't think a girl was worth a 100. 00 for the night I would not want to be with her. This past trip to Cartagena I saw more gringos and one guy was old and balding, total goofy looking bastard. All rinkled shorts and bo bo sneakers I saw at least 5 girls tell him no. He definitely needed to be in DR. I am glad these girls want more and arent afraid of saying no to a guy. The last thing I want is for Cartagena to turn into a Sosua. I don't think it will the girls are classier and definitely more expensive. I am glad because it will keep the rift raft out.

Just look at what Westy just did, didn't read the map or anything. I know some guys going down there shortly but they ain't listening to me, they better get a 401k loan. LMAO

I agree with that you can definitely go thru some money! Guys that do one trip a year and don't care about throwing money around are fine with it. But I try to do 5 or 6 trips a year, so I just don't throw money around that I don't have to. But not including airfair and my room. I like to have 500. 00 a day. Keep in mind I drink. Usually eat lunch and a late dinner. But I can easily spend 100. 00 on lunch with a chica and a pitcher of Sangria. Normally I usually do a light late dinner by myself before I hit the clubs usually about 50. 00 with a bottle of wine. I am well aware I can spend less. But these are things I like. At the club I always by a bottle of Rum, and share it with the girls. So money does go quick. You figure in a 100. 00 for the girl at night, and 50 to 60 for the day time girl, if I get one. Its always around 450 to 500. 00 per day for me. I can do DR for less then 200. 00 per day because its a whole different ballgame. So I am sure a guy that is use to the DR and ends up in Cartagena will definitely have sticker shock. .

[Thanks, the other thing I wanted to touch on in the post about money and forgot was the exchange rate. I am not a financial guy but it seems like you really get hosed over on the exchange rate. When I started going down there I would get like 200, 000 peso or even a little more for a 100. 00 US now its way down. Like 170, 000 for the 100. 000 All them missed pesos really add up. Where as in DR I was getting 39. 5 this past trip a couple weeks ago which I thought was pretty good.

$50 Dollar Threesome in Cartagena, sort of.
i was very tempted not to write this one up, since it is a little embarrassing but here it goes and if no one find's it educational maybe it can at least entertain.
so last friday night in centro around 11pm, seeing quite the selection once again around the clock tower, and outside the city wall all the way to the park. all types of quality and prices, something for everyone you might say and i've noticed the action here really changes day to day. my intention was to just have a few drinks and enjoy myself, no plans to hook up with a chica (or two as it turned out). so after meeting some interesting tourists and drinking a lot more than usual i was finally stumbling my way out of the old city when i sit down for a tinto thinking it might help me walk straighter. then two small darker (but not quite black) chicas approach me acting all sweet. now i've admitted before that i am a cheap charlie but since the beer vendor was right there and buying these two a drink was only going to set me back 5000 pesos i said what the hell, and then explained to them that they could get back to work whenever they want because i'm not playing tonight. now more on these girls, i have to admit, one was probably a 5 and the other a 4, at least that's the way i remember it, or maybe that 4 was a 3. the bodies were looking ok, it was mostly the faces dragging them down. persistent little buggers too, and i was told that if i didn't want fucky fucky i could just get a massage (w / happy ending). so one of them starts giving me a shoulder rub there on the street bench and she actually had good hands, go figure, and i'm starting to get a little worked up when the other one starts rubbing my thigh, probably mostly just for the thought of having two girls at once, and on it goes for a few minutes. now until this point i never understood why this street just outside the clock tower has so much chica traffic, turns out on the other end of that street there is a short-time hotel for 25, 000 cop per hour. there are enough girls standing in front of it you could easily mistake it for a prepago bar entrance. these chicas are generally but not always below the quality you find inside the old city. like some unspoken rule that if you are below a "5" you have to stay outside the walls. and i have seen the $5 dollar girls of the park in this area, sober, in the day time, which is just next door, and those girls are seriously rough, i don't think anyone on this forum would have a go with any of them even it was free, they are just plain scary. so back to my girls, they are a step above the 'park' girls but not quite centro quality, if that makes any sense, and i'm not thinking sex anyway, i'm thinking rub and tug with two chicks, plus i had some very nice experiences with some very average girls before. so they put it to me like this, an offer i couldn't refuse; 50, 000 cop each ($27usd) plus 25, 000 for the room, and if i just want a massage and hj then fine, but i could get whatever i wanted done for that price, i was too drunk or stupid to even negotiate and off we went just 50 meters over to the hotel. big room but not nice, not even a western shower but instead a giant garbage can full of water and a scoop (asian style). the massage gets started, and i can now see they aren't making the same effort they were outside, they just want to give me a quick hj and move on and i'm thinking more like bj and i know it's not uncommon but i can't remember a girl putting a condom on me just for a blow before, no big deal really as i was worked up enough at this point, but this is where things go down hill real fast, this is why drinking and just about anything can be a bad idea at times. so one girl is sucking on my nipple and fondling the balls (per my instructions) while the other one is doing the cbj and they both decide they want to get paid. nice timing right? so i tell them i'm not done yet and after enough negotiating to screw the moment up a bit they assure me they will finish the task at hand but would feel better knowing they are getting paid so like an ass i pay them in right then. quite annoyed and less excited than before i tell them to take there tops off and when the one told me her tits were not very nice and she wants to leave the bra on, well i should have listened to her, jesus talk about sloppy wrinkly droopy. the other girl was ok, just ok so i tried to focus on her. i've spent a lot of time in colombia and was never in situation quite like this before, but normally on a mongering night i'm more focused and i get what i actually want. sorry, back to the story, i tell the one girl (the one who isn't turning me off yet) to take off her shorts since she was complaining about the cbj and wanting to just do hj, and now that she has been paid its extra for fucky fucky, and she doesn't want to sucky skucky, hahahah i just laid there and laughed knowing how bad i screwed up. any attempts i made to explain that this wasnt the deal just resulted in my gear getting softer and softer so i decided to cut my losses and let her finish me with a combo of cbj and hj. we were in the room about 30 minutes. since i was heading home i had no desire to take a shower in there, the floor was dirty and i don't even remember seeing a towel. the girls are dressed with amazing speed and out the door of the room but the hotel guy won't let them leave unless all 3 of us walk out together and i'm taking my time dammit, you know tie my shoes take a leak, etc, hell we had 30 minutes left on the room, maybe i could actually get a massage. then the once sweet and almost charming duo get nasty and start yelling they want to go, but hell i'm not telling them they can't go, not that any of this last part matters. the points of the story are as we mostly know, paying in advance will always get you screwed (in one way or the other) , pun intended. a "5" and a "3" does not equal an 8, not in this case anyway. still for less than $70 usad including their drinks and the room, it was an interesting night so you can be cheap in cartagena but it might not be worth it.
on a side note, for the exact same money, i could have had one of several nicer looking girls inside the clock tower, many of those girls will do st for 100, 000 cop but most are asking 200, 000. one of the touts (that i previously mistook for a straight up pimp) said that he would even walk me through the girls and point out which once will go for 100k, even volunteered info that his cut would be 10, from the girl, for making the intro, so the girls out there are all freelance. he also volunteered that if we walked me to isis strip club, he would get 3000 for each 10, 000 beer i bought, and 25, 000 if i took a girl out, not bad i guess. how does he know he's getting paid?"it's all computerized and they pay us at least once a week", go figure.

[QUOTE=You Can;1361011]I agree with that you can definitely go thru some money! Guys that do one trip a year and don't care about throwing money around are fine with it. But I try to do 5 or 6 trips a year, so I just don't throw money around that I don't have to. But not including airfair and my room. I like to have 500. 00 a day. Keep in mind I drink. Usually eat lunch and a late dinner. But I can easily spend 100. 00 on lunch with a chica and a pitcher of Sangria. Normally I usually do a light late dinner by myself before I hit the clubs usually about 50. 00 with a bottle of wine. I am well aware I can spend less. But these are things I like. At the club I always by a bottle of Rum, and share it with the girls. So money does go quick. You figure in a 100. 00 for the girl at night, and 50 to 60 for the day time girl, if I get one. Its always around 450 to 500. 00 per day for me. I can do DR for less then 200. 00 per day because its a whole different ballgame. So I am sure a guy that is use to the DR and ends up in Cartagena will definitely have sticker shock. .[/QUOTE]It depends on where you go in DR. Are you talking about Sosua that you can spend 200 / day? Pretty much anywhere else in DR you are guaranteed to spend a lot more. In Sosua, you are limited to what is available. In Colombia, there are 5 star restaurants and there are 1 star. There is something for everyone. For an even comparison, you have to compare what you are getting.

The return of Black Page in Cartagena (Day 1)
[i] (All reports have been written some days after the trip, which took place one week ago) [/i]
I arrive to CTG from Bogota in the evening. Yesterday, I had my fun in Santa Fe exploring most seedy bars and alleys. I like adventure. Here, I intend to change totally approach. WOW! It's one year I miss this dream of a city! I cannot wait.
BUT, my last trip was to Batam (see reports there, if you want to read something amazing
[URL]http://www.internationalsexguide.info/forum/showthread.php?2020-Links-to-Reports-of-Distinction&p=1344045&viewfull=1#post1344045[/URL]
). My mind is still focused on Asia, on the incredible GFE which can be got there, but especially on the extraordinary experiences and luck I got there.
On my first night in Cartagena, I feel "out of focus". When your mind is wrong, anything looks wrong and difficult. This is the chronicle of a wasted night. (Except for the fact that Cartagena is a wonderful place. I missed it for a whole year!).
Dinner at Juan Del Mar, San Diego. This restaurant is overrated. The music is too loud and frankly annoying. The recipes are always the same, since many years. I got bored, even if I missed eating here for all the past year.
A drink at Juan Del Mar. I notice a couple of girls who look prepagos, but I refrain from seeking eye contact. I expect to see something better later. A sexy girl on high heels walks around like on a stage, sits down and waives to me. I make a bet with myself: "She is from Medellin". I go to ask, and she is!
Two hours at Fragma. This is a nice disco. The problem is that most people there are friends and couples, girls are not prepagos. I am not tuned yet on the place. I cannot find my way. Girls are outrageously sexy, but guys too. I consider myself somehow handsome, but with my 45y I cannot compete with young boys dressed as photomodels! In Batam, I am used to attract the attention of all girls. Almost any sexy girl is not out of reach for me. Here, sorry, NO.
I spot a couple of girls, with their boyfriends, who look frankly astonishing. I don't remember any girl on the TV of my country who is so sexy. Colombia is really the Empyrean of the female beauty.
Quite depressed, I move to Tu Candela. Here I grab a sexy mulata and after a couple of drinks we go to my hotel room.
My wrong mood, being away from here a solid year, and lack of good luck make me cumulate a number of mistakes. She is not bad, but:
- we agree 200k.
- we stop on the way to buy 3 beers for her and a soda for me (why 3?)
- we have some good fun (nothing to complain about)
- after it, she says she cannot stay because she is to drunk and feels tired (now I understand why 3: they are for friends at home)
- my rule is never insist to make a girl to stay if she is not happy (where's the fun to have a deadfish in the bed?) , so I am happy to see her leaving.
Conclusion: at 6am I start sleeping hoping in a better future for my next 3 days here.

The return of Black Page in Cartagena (Day 2)
Wake up in morning and LONG walk along the beach in Bocagrande. I have a beer with Tony, [i]just because I like to see and listen the real solid one[/i], after having just read about him for the whole past year. He cannot imagine why I accept his beer (my entertainment). I limit the damage to 5k for the beer and a chair. I leave after a while, saying I'll check girls later.
Mojarra frita at Dona Marciana on the beach. Hmmm how much I missed this!
Afternoon. No more time to waste. I give a call to my trusted lady.
She runs a business at her house in Alcibia, as I reported many times on ISG in my past reports. This house is known to SOME taxi drivers, but not to all. The house is small and rather poor. The room itself dedicated to the business is "essential" at best (fan, pipe shower, hard bed, no window). The family is made of the lady, the husband, the son and the LOVELY daughter, who is now 15yo and began to be sexy and pretty 2-3 years ago already (I know what you dirty men are thinking: forget it. SHE DOES NOT WORK, she is the DAUGHTER and she is treasured and kept away from any dirty business. She is very nice and she likes to talk with me (with family).
When I go there, there are always 2-3 fat or mid-size girls (doable, but I am not in CTG for this) sitting in the courtyard waiting for "guests". I am not interested to that.
I go there because the lady can call some other girl, who is out of the business and can do this at times, only with selected people to get some extra cash. Do I believe this story? At times no, but at times YES. I met a couple of real young GEMS here, shy and not used to meet foreigners.
(Sometimes I was also introduced to sleazy girls who looked well acquainted to this kind of job, but uncertainty makes the story more thrilling)
So, quick phone call. She says "yes I can call one special for you". I must explain the way to the taxi driver because he seems not understanding the direction.
The girl is young and pretty, and also hot and good as a porn star in doing it! It's frankly an excellent experience. (I agreed 100k with her, assuming that from locals the girls working there may receive something on the order of 50k, and of course I gave a significant tip to the lady for the room and the nice service of introducing me to the girl).
After the deed, chat with family, one more beer, and I go back to El Centro using my feet instead of taking a taxi. It's about one hour walking. I stop at Bazurto to buy some pirate DVD with reggaeton. I will listen to it during the cold winter at home.
Dinner at Santisimo, San Diego. This is an excellent restaurant, which I recommend.
Drinks at Café del Mar, Tu Candela, strolling, chats with girls loitering in front of Tu Candela and outside. By the way, I don't remember I ever saw so many girls here outdoor! What happened? They are not skanks. Many of them move to Elektra at 3am, but do not want to enter Tu Candela because of the cover (10k cover for men. 20k cover for girls: the world seems reversed here).
Being the second day, I start to be more used to see so many sexy girls around. It's amazing. In my country, I would see 2-3 such girls maybe in a year. Here, they are dozens and all around. I know you know the feeling.
At Elektra, I see THE GIRL. Young, pretty, smiling as a doll. She dresses cheap (she might have been one of those in the street earlier) , but she is the one I like. Emily, from Medellin.
She says she is 19, but once in my hotel I find that she does not have the cedula. She says she has it at home. She is not allowed to enter, even if she looks old enough.
Fortunately, la Jaiba is the resource in these cases. Emily is a dream girl! She is hot as hell, sweet at the same time, willing to try anything.
I accompany her back to her hotel / room at 7am. I plan to be with her also in the day, but her phone will be off for 2 days. She will call me only 2 days later, when I will be at Puente Aereo in Bogota.

The return of Black Page in Cartagena (Day 3)
In the morning I feel tired. I have some good reason for that. Thus, I spend my day between the beach and the Centro, strolling around and relaxing.
At night, again the same routine: dinner (Quebracho) , Cafè del Mar, Tu Candela, Elektra. I cannot find Emily, but the number of incredible sexy girls is so overwhelming that it would be really insane to miss anyone too long here.
My strategy to delay and delay my choice today pays off! As soon as I enter Elektra, I spot an incredible mulata, very slim and tall more than 1. 80 m (including the high heels). She looks a model. Really different from anyone else here! Fantastic smile, fantastic body. No one better to have a drink with!
Girls here are really fun. When there is the right feeling, one can really have a night which cannot be forgotten. And so we had!
At 5am, we leave and go with her two friends to Europa, a new 24h disco close to India Catalina, not far from Elektra. We have one more drink, but we are alone there. The place seems to be not popular enough.
At 6am, we leave her friends and we go to my room. Another incredible experience! I point out that we never mentioned money, discussed amount, etc. She is hot as a porn star, and stunning like a TV model. It's difficult to be with a girl who has just ONE of the two features, incredibly I've got both. After one hour of steamy sex, in which she tells me she misses her friend and she looks forward to have a trio the day after with me and her ("I am not lesbian, but I like to have fun.") , she sleeps like an angel. I manage to kick her out of the bed at 11am. (and no money still discussed)
-
The return of Black Page in Cartagena (Day 4)
She wants to eat, but I counteroffer: first coffee at Juan Valdez, then she goes back home to pick up her friend, she comes back with her, and we go to La Boquilla for the beach and eating.
Till now, she looks like my new girlfriend, but I know she cannot be. So, when I put her on a taxi, to avoid being asked, I also give her discretely 200k "for the taxi and her expenses".
When they come back it's 2pm. They say they don't have a bikini and ask if I can buy a new one for them. Sure, let's go! (shit, I know shops in Bocagrande are damn expensive!). We spend one hour choosing the bikini they like and visiting various shops. Finally, they choose: the bill is 250k for the two. If I want to be a cheap Charlie, Cartagena is not the place to play the game. So, I keep on going.
And there we go! Fantastic afternoon on the beach at la Boquilla. It's nice swimming with the two, although a bit embarrassing when she tells me "ahora te chupo la poya" and there is people swimming around. My hands roam around both. It's a nice way to spend an afternoon at the beach.
We eat something at Blas and we go back to my hotel. And here the PROBLEM!
The girl at reception refuses them to enter my room, because my room is for two. I offer to pay the additional bed, but she tells me "the guy who can do that is not here". She clearly was instructed to not allow girls of "dubious morality" to the premises. I need to find a better accommodation for my next time in CTG.
They go back home, and we plan to meet later. But the magic is broken. I meet only my girl at midnight and she is alone. The friend did not come because she was tired. She too does not look so friendly as in the day. Once chemistry is broken, is wrong to insist. I say bye and I head to Tu Candela.

The return of Black Page in Cartagena (Night 4)
In Tu Candela, there is the usual crowd and quite a lot of sexy girls, but ONE immediately captures my attention: elegant, classy, haughty even, with an elegant hairstyle reminding me the '40s.
I decide she is MY girl of tonight. After 2 hours of drinks and chats, we move to my room. She clearly points out:"Yo covro 200k". I don't want to discuss.
Well, after the two past nights, I've become overdemanding and hypercritic, so this lovely girl actually leaves me cold at last, but I cannot complain.
She is an intelligent lady. She is 25+ and she has a child. She studies and she uses the money to pay her expenses here, her university course, sustain the kid at home.
She claims to need to leave at 6am because she has classes at 8am to attend. In my bed, she refuses to do any oral without condom because she does not like it, simply (but she likes a lot to receive it!). She is quite simple and traditional in sex. She does not have a technique, but she is quite spontaneous. I think I am having a normal classy lady and not a pornstar in my bed, finally, so I am not disappointed.
In spite of her early plans, she sleeps like an angel till 9am, when I awake her up. I decide to not try to have an additional session, in order to avoid the embarrassment of a discussion (will she ask more money?) , because I still feel tired of all sex of these days, and because I have an idea for today.

The return of Black Page in Cartagena (Day 5)
This is my last day. I have my flight from CTG at 2pm. It's 10 am now. Time to rush and be straight to the point.
Phone call to my lady in Alcibia, appointment for 11am, two double espresso at Juan Valdez, taxi ride, at 11:10am the sight of a sweet young shy smiling mulatita enlightens me and makes my day.
No time now for details, but she was really misplaced. She told me that she was convinced to do it only because I am a nice good man.
Conclusion: always behave well, and you'll be rewarded.
The girl was extremely shy. What a pity to not have more than one hour to spend there. At 12:30 I kiss the lady on the cheek, I rush out of the house and I run chasing a taxi to go back. Not much time left to close my luggage and rush to the airport.

3-some with SWs
[QUOTE=SailingWhorist; 1361381]I was very tempted not to write this one up, since it is a little embarrassing but here it goes and if no one find's it educational maybe it can at least entertain.
On a side note, for the exact same money, I Could have had one of several nicer looking girls inside the clock tower, many of those girls will do ST for 100, 000 COP but most are ASKING 200, 000. One of the touts (that I previously mistook for a straight up pimp) said that he would even walk me through the girls and point out which once will go for 100k, even volunteered info that his cut would be 10, from the girl, for making the intro, so the girls out there are all freelance. He also volunteered that if we walked me to ISIS strip club, he would get 3000 for each 10, 000 beer I bought, and 25, 000 if I took a girl out, not bad I guess. How does he know he's getting paid?"It's all computerized and they pay us at least once a week", go figure.[/QUOTE]In Sept 2010 (only 2+ years ago, but I feel it as ages ago if I read my old reports) , I had a similar adventure at Reloy, but with totally different satisfaction. I found my old report (posted later on 2011).
That time, I had the chance to meet a tall black girl walking around the Reloy (And she is still there! We always chat when we meet and I offer her a beer.)
She was with a blond young pregnant girl (5th month, rather big belly) , who is not working anymore (she is now attending her bebito). I started to talk and finally I invited them to eat something at the fast food in the plaza. I had a very nice time with them. They are honest girls (I am not ironic) and I enjoyed so much eating with them that I accepted to go with them in a room of a hotel nearby (Puerta del Sol). I was asked 300k first (by the black girl, very skilful, while the blonde was newer to the game) , but we settled for 200k.
I know it's pricey, but I had less experience than today, and how could I miss the opportunity to play 3-some with a panther-body black girl and a preggy blondie? Not going to LDV, sure. And it was a rewarding experience indeed! (no, I don't give out details).

Hotels
[QUOTE=Love Handler;1362211]BP, can you recommedn a chica friendly hotel in Cartagena?[/QUOTE]I have the same question for regulars here. Next time, I want to stay in a good place, but having no problems if I want to take a couple of friends to my room (without making noise or causing problems) like it happened this time.
This is my contribution about ST hotels (not what you are asking for, probably) , from my past reports all linked from the RoD section.
EL CENTRO
There are various decent hotels nearby Reloy, which will rent you a clean room for 15k / hour. One I tried various times is Sol de las Indias 1 block from Elektra. I think it's the best option if you are there and don't want to go far.
OUTSIDE EL CENTRO
The place where to go, if you have a good chica but you cannot take her to your room, is a motel specialized for this business. There, you will relax in a good environment, at any time 24h / 24h, for a very cheap rate, without worrying about your stuff or what the personnel of your hotel may say.
- JAIBA (pronounce: "haiva") , a motel in a barrio just after Crespo (the way from El Centro to the airport, at right) .5-10 minutes by taxi from the Clock Square (Reloy).
Rooms from small and cheap to luxury suites. Cost is about 14k or 20k (2008 price) per 2 hours minimum (YES. 7-10 USD!). Time is counted automatically, so you can stay all time you want. Different types of rooms are available. Usually, they take you to the cheapest available, unless you don't ask differently.
You arrive by taxi, the car enters the slot, you walk up and nobody sees you. At the end, you call the bill by phone and it is delivered on a small window in 5 minutes. The rooms of medium quality are large, very clean, with glass shower box, well furnished, even a "sex chair" for trying multiple positions (see it to believe). It is a deluxe environment, with privacy guarantee, even drinks and food available "a la orden".
- CANGREJO. On the same street of Jaiba, cheaper and less beatiful. I did not try it. Maybe if Jaiba is full.
- DUNES. Not far from Jaiba, in a near barrio. Deluxe accommodation, better quality than Jaiba, more expensive, but still very cheap for the service provided: 28k for min 2 hours (2007 price)!
Standard price to go there by taxi: 10k$ from El Centro (15k$ from Bocagrande) , max 12k at late night. Ask before leaving, so you will be not overcharged. Leave 2000$ tip. I was asked also 15k from El Centro. It depends how you look and how greedy is the driver (and how willing you are to be overcharged).
A bit more the price to go back (15k). The motel will call you a taxi to return.
Don't worry to get lost: just ask the taxi driver "haiva" or "dunes". They ALL KNOW THEM. All girls also know these places. So, you may let her to talk to the driver, if you don't feel confident. The place is SAFE, clean and well attended.

This is my contribution about ST hotels (not what you are asking for, probably) , from my past reports all linked from the RoD section.
EL CENTRO.
There are various decent hotels nearby Reloy, which will rent you a clean room for 15k / hour. One I tried various times is Sol de las Indias 1 block from Elektra. I think it's the best option if you are there and don't want to go far.
OUTSIDE EL CENTRO.
The place where to go, if you have a good chica but you cannot take her to your room, is a motel specialized for this business. There, you will relax in a good environment, at any time 24h / 24h, for a very cheap rate, without worrying about your stuff or what the personnel of your hotel may say.
- JAIBA (pronounce: "haiva") , a motel in a barrio just after Crespo (the way from El Centro to the airport, at right).5-10 minutes by taxi from the Clock Square (Reloy).
Rooms from small and cheap to luxury suites. Cost is about 14k or 20k (2008 price) per 2 hours minimum (YES. 7-10 USD!). Time is counted automatically, so you can stay all time you want. Different types of rooms are available. Usually, they take you to the cheapest available, unless you don't ask differently.
You arrive by taxi, the car enters the slot, you walk up and nobody sees you. At the end, you call the bill by phone and it is delivered on a small window in 5 minutes. The rooms of medium quality are large, very clean, with glass shower box, well furnished, even a "sex chair" for trying multiple positions (see it to believe). It is a deluxe environment, with privacy guarantee, even drinks and food available "a la orden".
- CANGREJO. On the same street of Jaiba, cheaper and less beatiful. I did not try it. Maybe if Jaiba is full.
- DUNES. Not far from Jaiba, in a near barrio. Deluxe accommodation, better quality than Jaiba, more expensive, but still very cheap for the service provided: 28k for min 2 hours (2007 price)!
Standard price to go there by taxi: 10k$ from El Centro (15k$ from Bocagrande) , max 12k at late night. Ask before leaving, so you will be not overcharged. Leave 2000$ tip. I was asked also 15k from El Centro. It depends how you look and how greedy is the driver (and how willing you are to be overcharged).
A bit more the price to go back (15k). The motel will call you a taxi to return.
Don't worry to get lost: just ask the taxi driver "haiva" or "dunes". They ALL KNOW THEM. All girls also know these places. So, you may let her to talk to the driver, if you don't feel confident. The place is SAFE, clean and well attended.[/QUOTE]Those rates are 6-7 years ago! I'd be curious to know what the rates are today. BTW, I think they also have an overnight rate during the week.

SOL DE LAS INDIAS
15k / hour was the rate ONE year ago. I did not try this year.
JAIBA, Crespo
I don't have the exact numbers of my stay of 2 weeks ago, but the total I paid was something on the order of 30k for 1 hour and half, maybe.
Standard price to go there by taxi: 15k$ from El Centro at night (I wrote 10k 5 years ago). It depends how you look and how greedy is the driver (and how willing you are to be overcharged). Take the phone number of the driver who takes you there, to call him back and agree the same price to return, to avoid to be overcharged by some other called by the reception.

Good point, but let me point out that the standard regulated price from the airport to Bocagrande or Centro (the one printed on the voucher at the taxi boot) is 17k. Therefore, if a driver asks 15k from Centro / Bocagrande to la Jaiva, which is right after the airport, it does not sound too much to me. Anyway, it really sounds bad taste to me negotiating with the driver for 2k less, when he knows you are going to give AT LEAST 100k to the girl, and you spent maybe the same on drinks in the past 2 hours.

The "standard or regulated" taxi fare from the Airport to Bocagrande is not comparable to say the Crespo to Bocagrande taxi fare. Why not? Because the "standard / regulated" fare from / to the airport includes an airport surcharge, so to speak.
For example, here are some 2012 published fares for Cartagena:
Airport to Bocagrande (or anywhere in Zone 5, which includes Laguito) is 16 mil pesos.
Bocagrande to Crespo / Marbella / Canapote / Daniel Lemaitre is 8 mil pesos.
Centro to Canapote / Crespo / Marbella is 5 mil pesos.
Centro to Danile Lemaitre is 5600 pesos.
Airport to Centro is 8500 pesos.
Now, is it standard / typical to pay an additional charge for night time and then even a little more for the "wee hours of 3 to 5 am.? Yes. As an example, I typically pay 5 mil for Laguito to Centro during the day, but 6 mil later at night. At 5 am coming out of Electra, the taxis (vultures) waiting right there like to even ask for 7 or 8 mil to take you back to Laguito. You decide if you want to pay that extra 1 to 2 mil pesos "Electra back home" wee hours upcharge.
The first time I went to Las Dunas back in July of this year, I used the taxi fares listed in World Travel69's post on the Cartagena List thread as my guide. The 10 mil I paid that time was a little too much. Why? Because I relied on the Cartagena List post that suggested 10 mil from 2007, I was intoxicated and I used one of those taxi drivers waiting outside of Electra (they like to upcharge tourists). The 15 mil I paid for the trip back from Las Dunas to Laguito wasn't too off because we did have to drop the chica off in some barrio around el centro and he stopped and waited for me at Olympica in Bocagrande before finally dropping me off at the apartment in Laguito (they like to look at it as 3 separate trips: 5 mil from Las Dunas to Centro; 5 mil from Centro to Bocagrande; 5 mil from Bocagrande to Laguito).
Subsequent to the July 2012 visit to Las Dunas that I posted about in the Cartagena Lists thread, I have been an additional 3 times from Centro to Las Dunas and Las Dunas to Laguito. I've also been 1 time from Bocagrande to Las Dunas. Each time from Centro to Las Dunas was between the hours of 4 am and 5:30 am. On those 3 post-July occasions I paid 8 mil, which is in essence a 3 mil premium over the published standard daytime fare. On the way back to Laguito, I paid 12 or 13 mil each time, which included dropping the chica off on the way.
On the Bocagrande to Las Dunas trip, it was during the afternoon and I paid the standard 8 mil fare, as well as an 8 mil fare back to Bocagrande (no separate stop for the 2 chicas, as they came back to Bocagrande as well).
My feeling on the matter? The 2012 standard daytime published fare from Centro to Canapote / Crespo / Marbella is 5 mil pesos. During the day time, that's what a feller should pay. At 4:30 am the morning, intoxicated, and coming out of Electra into the hands of one of the taxis (vultures) waiting right there, well a 3 mil premium for a total of 8 mil is sufficient (more than) given the time of day and convenience of not having to walk out the main street, etc. Coming back to Bocagrande or Laguito at around 7 or 8 am.? 8 mil unless the taxi has to make a trip / stop to drop off the chica at her place around centro, then 12 or 13 mil.
Each year the Mayor de Cartagena's office publishes the taxi fares. Here's a link to 2012 published fares for Cartagena:
[url]http://www.transitocartagena.gov.co/links/Decretos/Decretos_2010/Decreto0150.PDF[/url]
My 2 cents on taxi fare is to use the annual published fares as your guide. Then a guy can pay a little more for late night / wee hours and if he likes, even another mil or two for the convenience of having a vulture waiting right there at 4:30 am to whisk him away before the Vitamin V kicks into full effect, LOL. Adjust for having the driver drop off the chica on the way back, making a pit stop for you, etc.

I've Rtff then more Rtff, I've yet to find How close is the Mirador del Laquito hotel from all the action? Ie Elecktras and LDVs? My boy Hillybilly69 says its cool, but How much per night? Chica friendly? And It will be 3 of us, so we would like an apt with 3 separate bedrooms, hopefully with queen size beds to fit out fat asses. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We are also considering the Lee hotel, but we hear its noisy due to a disco being next door, my question is If we request rooms on the higher floors, would that cancell out the noisy disco, or does it not matter?
-
I am sorry to break my 666 in this way, but I have to reply.
If you take te CTG map (see CTG List) you'll have lots of answers to your questions.
Take a map: locate Laguito / Bocagrande and Centro. They are 5 mins apart by taxi (5k or 6k). LDV is in Bocagrande. Elektra and other bars are in Centro. I don't tell you where is "Mirador del Laguito" because I don't know it (but I have a guess).
-
Hold off on your reservations till feb or March you are still too early for a April trip. Mirador Del Laguito is 5 minute walk from the LDV and 10 minute walk to Playa Hollywood. You need to rent from Juan or Mery just because if something happens from an illness, credit card ate at an atm they would be there to help you. Elektra is 10 minutes by taxi and 6k pesos at night, it is about 3 miles.
Mirador Del Laguito has limited chica polices { one chica per person} so I would hold off till I get back from next trip and ask around for a better pad.
Mirador 1002, 903 are 2 bedrooms, but if the is only 3 of you 903 has a lockout which is 904 and all have big beds so you would all be in the same apartment.

Taxis
I don't think this was brought up. But taxis have no meters. ALWAYS ask how much it is before you get in the taxi. They will always try to rip off the gringo and ask for 15k to go to Elektra. Know the rates and tell them so if they try to rip you off.

3 Big Guys. 3 large beds
Deep, think I saw in another thread where there are 3 of you and that you'd like 3 queens or larger. Not sure of your budget, but I can vouch for the Playa Mar Penthouse (Juan Ventura manages) as to meeting that request. And more. I predominantly travel solo, but the one time I did bring two buddies in tow we stayed at the Playa Mar Penthouse. It has 3 bedrooms, each with an extra large king bed and in room full bathroom with shower. Plus you get the outdoor jacuzzi (has heater, unlike Mirador penthouse) on the large rooftop type balcony; air con that works really well; having Leonis the daily maid / cook cleaning-up, making breakfast, keeping fresh, sliced fruit out, etc; the benefits of a building with very favorable chica policy (read multiple chicas for each guy no problem) ; in Laguito (5 min walk to LDV and a couple minutes more to Playa Hollywood) ; on the beach side of the street, etc, etc.
If you and your buddies like a little more space and each guy likes having a King bed and his own full bathroom, if it fits the budget, then Playa Penthouse can certainly meet the needs and has a few unique pluses.

I agree 100percent Hiltopper! If the budget works, Playa mar penthouse is killer, I have stayed there many times. Only room I don't like in the penthouse is the bedroom up the spiral staircase. I prefer one of the bedrooms on the 1st floor. Actually I always take the 1st room on left because it has a huge bathtub in the unit. But the whole place is killr. It also has a tv monitor that you can view the lobby on which is nice if you have chicas wanting to come up that you have talked to you can view them and when the front desk calls up you already see whats there. So if its someone you don't want to see you just say no. Defintely a great place!

[QUOTE=You Can;1370760]I woould say no it is not guest friendly and I recommend you look for a few apartments. Its cheaper and better.[/QUOTE]No doubt! Can you imagine five foreign mongers bringing back 5 working girl all at the same time going over well at the Hilton? Discretion in Colombia is your friend. If a big party or an argument ensues, do you really want to have hotel staff and all the guests (families, upper-crust domestic travelers, etc.) on your floor alerted?
For less money than 5 hotel rooms (unless you just have that many points) , you could rent the aforementioned Playa Mar Penthouse and a 2 bedroom / 2 bath apartment in the same building. You'd have the Penthouse as your "party central / headquarters" location with Leonis cooking breakfast or lunch (or both) for all of you after a hard night of grinding! Any of the 5 smoke? No problem. Any of the 5 swingin' a big dick that makes the chicas scream to the top of their lungs? No problem. The advantages go on and on.

[QUOTE=DmnyBoy;1370458]I about to book 5 rooms at Hilton in CTG but want to make sure its overnight guest friendly?[/QUOTE]Terrible idea. You will pay FOUR times the cost of a decent apartment and three times the cost of a nice one. The hotel is NOT chica friendly. This is an international chain and the most prominent hotel in Cartagena? What would even give you this idea?
I stayed there with my girlfriend once, it was a special that was around $110 for the night, generally it's closer 300K COP if not 400K on a busy time. That's a lot of money just to be hassled by the reception when you want to bring a guest up and to have them ***** at you if you are partying.
Aim for more privacy and better value.

I was trying to put it gingerely with this statement. I cannot imagine ever staying at the Hilton in CTG and trying to bring working girls back there! I have walked thru the hotel many times just out of the need to take a walk, both inside and outside where there beach area is and it would be a big mistake to stay there. I actually thought the guy was kididng because he had a couple post about what kind of place he wanted to stay at? So I really didn't take Dannyboy seriously! Just the price alone would be rediculous, not to mention the problem trying to bring some girls in mini skirts and heels with their tits bulging out of there tops into the place. LOL.

[quote=speedstick; 1371947]i coming down in feb, bringing a chica from medellin. i kind of regret asking her now, but i like her and we get along, unfortunately she is not into girls, however i am not going to back out now. i can always go back to do some serious mongering. i just have a couple of questions, i am looking for more of dating experience than mongering.
1) are there any zip lines around the area, i do not want to drive / taxi to far out of town.
2) in the past post someone mentioned a german restaurant, but could not remember the name, does anyone know what it is.
3) are there any regular type of night clubs?
4) what can i expect to pay for jet ski rental.
5) are there any night time diner cruises.
6) is there any type of amusement parks.
also any recommendations for a regular type of date kind of activities (non-mongering).
thanks for the info.
speedstick.[/quote]i am going to cartagena in february and i also asked a girl from medellin to stay with me for a few days. she will probably take the bus. i will arrive on feb 13 and he birthday is that.
day.
as far as your question. i have heard there is jet skis now, but iam sure like everything else the price is negotiable. a good rule is offer 1/2 of what they want sometimes less. if they are not busy they will evenually accept your offer.
something that your girl will love is a boat trip to the rosairo island and then to the beach. this is done on the same trip. the rosario island has a dolphin show and other sea life is
small but interesting. on the dock of rosario islnad the is vendors that sell lobster. when i was there about a year and a half ago it cost 5000 pesos for half a lobster and was very
good. is a good idea to buy some lobster and take with you to the beach because on the beach they serve lunch a fish with it head still on is ok but the lobster is much better.
this beach is much better than the beach at cartagena sand is nicer and water is alot clearer. one other thing there are verious types of boats. the fastes is probably the long small speed boats but can get very bumpy and is hard on the back, a bigger boat is slower but you do not get you spine jolted every time you hit a big wave.
your question about regular night clubs. yes there are regular night clubs. some are mentioned in other posts, and it is possible to pick up girls at the night clubs.
another nice place to go is on the wall of the old city. there is a bar that i think now serves food. and has a great view but is very expensive,
a good place to eat is inside the old city there is a court yard with restaurants all around and at time there is entertainment.
i don't know of any amusement parks but there is a zoo in barraquilla which is about a hour to hout and a half by car.

Vacation to Cartagena
I am a professional canadian going to Cartagena Colombia for vacation and looking for a nice latin women that is fun and can speak english. I live in Canada and do not speak much spanish, I would love to know more about Cartagena women and getting around the city.

1) zip lines. i have no idea what this means.
2) german restuarant. i don't remember its name either, but it's in getsemani very close to the cafe de arsenal i believe. cafe de arsenal is another outdoor restaurant v similar to cafe del mar.
3) regular nightclubs. there are lots. fragma, babar, mr babilla, tu candela. they all have at least some ho's, but i'd still call them 'regular' nightclubs.

Thanks Hilltopper!
[QUOTE=Hilltopper; 1369414]Deep, think I saw in another thread where there are 3 of you and that you'd like 3 queens or larger. Not sure of your budget, but I can vouch for the Playa Mar Penthouse (Juan Ventura manages) as to meeting that request. And more. I predominantly travel solo, but the one time I did bring two buddies in tow we stayed at the Playa Mar Penthouse. It has 3 bedrooms, each with an extra large king bed and in room full bathroom with shower. Plus you get the outdoor jacuzzi (has heater, unlike Mirador penthouse) on the large rooftop type balcony; air con that works really well; having Leonis the daily maid / cook cleaning-up, making breakfast, keeping fresh, sliced fruit out, etc; the benefits of a building with very favorable chica policy (read multiple chicas for each guy no problem) ; in Laguito (5 min walk to LDV and a couple minutes more to Playa Hollywood) ; on the beach side of the street, etc, etc.
If you and your buddies like a little more space and each guy likes having a King bed and his own full bathroom, if it fits the budget, then Playa Penthouse can certainly meet the needs and has a few unique pluses.

That guy wanted like 100 dollars for an hour. Play hollywood is around the corner from there closer to Boca Grande? Is this right? So this is a different place?

But I am the person paying for them serveral times per day and I only give her 20k pesos each time to leave from Playa Hollywood to Centro and back. Playa Hollywood is in front Hotel Dann. I think gringo price is easily double.
Here is a Jet ski route map and location, Mojo if you are riding as well have your Girl offer him 25k pesos.

Very late trip report.
I was in CTG in November for the 5th time and thought I should finally write a little. I find that the trips just keep getting better, when you think, okay I've seen this town enough. Then on the next it exceeds your expectations. I know people on the board here have there preferences for one city over another. But I just love the beach (scene, not the very average sand / water) , after several times you will know alot of the characters. Each time I think you are better able to size people / girls up and I have to say this time I didn't have one bad session / experience I had the pleasure of meeting a very nice 20 yr old university student (I know, they all say that, but saw her I'd) and also got to see an old friend. These 2 were seen each day on a revolving basis during the days, and then mixing up others at nite. I met the most beautiful girl I had ever had there on the 1st nite in the plaza iin front of tu candela. 20 yr old, sitting w / her friends. I was afraid she might be to naive / dead fish due to her complete lack of english and my limited spanish, but she became immediatly agrresive / GFE once we were in the cab and went back to apt for tln. Unfortatley, I never got back w / her due to my failure to call on a timely basis. And other alternatives. I finally made it to the club that opens at 3 am, forget the name, quite a scene to watch it fill up, become crazy for like 90minutes. I had spent the end of a very long nite there getting picked up by 19 yo from Cali. Who I would then call at about 3am each nite and she would show up in 20-30 min at my apt. The trip had its share of drama, girls showing up at the apt when I was occupied. But always eventually resolved. Highlight being my old friend (23 yo) bringing her friend to the beach, having lunch and drinks, then the 3 of us heading to the apt for a late afternoon fiesta. Much more, but you get the picture. Can't wait till I back in 3 weeks.
Enjoy,
Doc

Nice condensed report. I agree with you, everytime I say I am going to go somewhere else I end up back in Cartagena and always have a good time. I will be there Feb 18 to 25 and am very much looking forward to that week, especially with the temps here in the 20's as of right now.

First week in feb
Is anything going on in CTG the first / second week in Feb? Flights almost sold out and upwards of 700 from Miami. 1K from NYC. There is a festival in Barranquilla around same dates but I can hardly see flights from the US sell out due to this. Or did I miss anything?
-
I am not sure of anything going on, but I just checked Spirit air out of Ft. Lauderdale and it was round trip Feb 4 to 10 for 473. 00 round trip not including bag fees which if you are a member is no more than 40. Round trip. I bought my flights out of Atantic City to Cartagena for 404. 00 round trip, (feb 18 to 25) so it is on pricey side for florida to Cartagena, but still a lot less than 700 to 1000. 00 In the last 6 months I notice a lot more gringos in Cartagena. When I first started going down there you rarely saw an American which I liked now there is a lot more. With Jet blue starting service, there probably will be more Americans traveling here. Though for some it may be more pricey than they are use to as it certainley isn't as cheap as many of the other islands.

Maybe if you've got flexibility in dates I need those exact dates and out of Miami only one direct flight comes up on Kayak is this one. I am not paying this much out of principle.
$712.
Avianca Aerovias.
MIA 1:30p CTG 4:16p 2h 46m nonstop.
CTG 9:30a MIA 12:15p 2h 45m nonstop.
And Spirit is 817 for same dates.
I can't remember first time I went to CTG it was maybe 2002 or 2004 and there were very few gringos back then. Idk if this good or not that there are more of them now, maybe more gringos mean more selection of available girls, supply = demand kind of thing. I hope Colombia does not turn Brazil prices in the near future.

I just bought a girls ticket from from Medellin to cartaegna for less than 100.
Try flying to Cartagena via another city.
Check sprit to Medellin and then aviance from Medellin to Cartagena.
Or try going through Bogota.
Think you can find something for under 500 traveling from fort lauderdale.
One other thing I found two avianca web sites one in english with american dollars and one with colombian pesos.
Make sure you use the avianca with pesos it us about half the price

Ldv
I've been getiing plenty of info from this site, felt I needed to post. My 1st night here was much better than my past
Trip here which was the week after semana santa. This time LDV had plenty of talent. Most of the time at these venues, I might.
Like a few of the girls. After the interview maybe just one. This time was much different. As the girls started to arrive,
I must have had at least 4-5 options. I am loving this trip so far. Sessioned with a blond spinner from Pereira. Best ass in
The place, Paulina. Killer time was had. Thee hottest chica I saw was leaving as I arrived at LDV. Smokin. I'm going to get some
Of that if she is still in CTG this trip. She could easily be a playboy model. I think I would have pulled that chic the moment I set eyes on her.
On a side note, my COPA flight stopped at PTY. I had a 12hr layover. I got out of that airport so fast and made my way to
The Veneto. The place was loaded with chicas at about 10pm. This was last Thursday night. There was only 2 stand outs. Took up.
A spinner from MDE. Was'nt great, but took the edge off. When I made my way back down to the bar, the talent was not much
Better. I'm glad I pulled the trigger. Later I Walked down to Habano's. Talent was good. Did'nt pull anyone. I finally made my
Way to Golden Times. The line up was average. I asked for a 2nd look and interview for #2 Natalie. She was way to boared.
Decided to hold off and save it for CTG.
Well, today going to get some beach action, yesterday alot of families at the beach. Hard to determine who's who. I'll try and

Women outnumbered men by far. The ratio was still great at LDV even after alot of women left. There is alot of chicas here this weekend. Met a girl from Cali, Estefany, during breakfast.

Over the past few years I fell in love with MDE and I am planning on investing in real estate there. Obviously not for mongering reasons (as that would be stupid) but for climate, friendliness, culture and most importantly the future growth potential.
Sounds like I should seriously consider CTG as well.
Would love to hear if any of you have thoughts on investing in CTG.

Air Europa will open direct flights between Spanish capital Madrid and Colombia's coastal city Cartagena de Indias, the company announced Saturday.
According to Miguel Gonzalez, Air Europa's Colombia manager, the airliner will be flying between Madrid and Cartagena three times a week beginning December 1.
Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos said in Cartagena he hoped the direct flights between Spain and Colombia's northern coast will result in an increase in employment in the region.

[QUOTE=Kroder; 1378246]I bought my ticket 2 months ago and paid 366 from chicago to Cartagena on feb 13.
Make sure you use the avianca with pesos it us about half the price[/QUOTE]Thanks, going to give the peso idea a try.
We booked direct United flight from NY to Bogota for $615. Only 4 days will probably skip Cartagena this time. Spirit Air has flights to Bogota for $339 but connection time is awful and just dealing with the bag fees not worth it.
Colombia will probably remain a good destination for awhile, but seeing how quickly Brazil got expensive for most people you just never know

Hollywood Beach
Just got done with a spinner I picked up at the beach. She looks almost like the porn actress "Amy Reed". I am loving this vacation. I am hearing from some people that alot of girls got to get back to school. Some schools have already begun. The rest start next week. So I my be in for some changes this coming week. If it really slows down, I'd say I have had some incredible sessions so far. The last time I was here, it was nothing like this. So I am thinking it could be a seasonal thing. Not sure.

I'm headed to Madrid soon and can't wait to report about it but I'm itching to go to Columbia for a vacation. Loved Sosua years ago but time to step up the vacation spots. Insert Columbia.
My question Hillbilly69 is which city Cartagena VS. Medellion. I love beaches (not a deal breaker) and everything a city has to offer. Aug / Sept timeframe?

It has been windy here. Jet Skis have been renting for 2k per minute or a little less. I got middled for a girl from Tony for 150k but I had to hit that! Asked him about getting 80 to 100k girls for my friends coming and he said 150k the girls get 80k, something I already knew. So I asked Fao if he could get 80 to 100k girls for them he said yes. Some beautiful chicas in town but damn has it been windy at the beach, I saw 8 foot waves breaking out at 200 yards out, I heard a annoying whistle blowing and I figured out it was a lifeguard waving people into shore.

First time Cartagena. Basic intel
Hi Guys,
I am planning a trip to Cartagena for three weeks beginning end of April. I am not sure if I use this forum correctly, but I can't see how I can organize the post per topic, I only see the whole 50. 000 post in a row, so could not read them all. I learnt already a lot by reading the posts of hillbilly69 and checking out his map, so thanks for that already, I still have some basic questions:
1) Can someone recommend me an apartment which is good when I am planning to hit on chicas during the day / early evening? I need to get stuff done during the day so I cannot stay at LDV or ELektra until 5 am. So which strategy is best to catch beautiful girls early? I also would like to walk to the places where the chicas hang out. And the place should be economical, I don't mind if it is a little run down, don't need luxuries (except for working air con).
2) Can someone elaborate on the program chicas offer normally. I must admit that I am somewhat of an ass lover that likes to bang chicks in their booty (spend a lot of time in brazil. But from what I read this program is quite rare in Colombia, is that true?
3) Which would be the best place to pick up regular / semi pro girls?
4) Can someone recommend a good gym in the area?
I know, a lot of questions, an maybe already answered in older posts, alas, I don't find them, so would be greatly appreciated, if someone could give me some hints.
Thanks,
Jeff

The sand really gets into your eyes. Some of the hotter beach girls will always start at 200k. Today, a girl (Tony flagged me down for from half way down the beach) from MDE started at 200k LT, then offered 120k ST. I may have taken her offer had the Amy Reid look alike not shown up. I was too spent, with a few claw marks to boot (LOL). Some of Tony's girls are in the 60k to 80k range but not to attractive. In the end, He who cares the least, wins. Last night at LDV, the Hot chics would not budge from 200k. They all start at 300k, then down from there. I gave the girls my offer, which they declined. However, an hour or two later, with some of the ladies still there with no takers, as I made another walk though, I got some smiles from some of the girls I spoke to. I smiled back at one of them, al little small talk ensued and my offer was accepted. The session was'nt great but good. Going to try Angeles club tonight for a change.

Been getting 1720 to 1740 but exchanged 500 dollars for 1780 in centro inside the wall by the clock tower this morning. Chipped a tooth and had to get a filling at Sunrisa next to Juan Valdez. Got my teeth cleaned and bleached too for 280 dollars about 460k pesos. I just walked in and went right to a chair to get worked on. Not as windy today. Beach had some 7s yesterday.

There is so many girls there that you have a good chance to grab one for a decent price or they will go home with nothing. Was your session that you said wasnt great include BBBJ, kissing etc? I like a GFE type session or I would rather be alone! I usually always grab a girl for 150, 000 or 200, 000 for all night and they really put out. If its not BBBJ I tell them to leave. I can't stand a CBJ. Thanks for your reports. I will be down there on the 18 of Feb. Looking for my gang member that I like to hang out with. Its a love hate relationship!

Checked out Hollywood today, plenty of cuties around. A blond stunner I checked out was Sophie from BOG. Not really into "bolt on's" but I may make an exception here. If not now, she does show up at LDV. Usually she gets hit on right away though. Good to just take names and numbers. Got a call from the Amy Reid look alike, I can't say no to this chic. Oh well, lookes like I'm just going to go over budget. LOL

Saturday and Sunday it was windy as hell again with the wind picking up in the afternoon. Quality of chicas at Playa Hollywood was lame. The Barranquilla Carnaval started and alot of girls went there. I am at the airport heading home, you have to go to the tax counter now before leaving. It was alot faster getting my ticket and getting to the gate though, about ten minutes from the time I arrived at airport and both bags searched. On arrival I was third person off the plane and was at the taxi within 8 minutes of getting off the plane. Alot of beautiful girls again all throughout the city today maybe they are back from Barranquilla.

Yea last few times I been there they send me to that tax counter? But I never have to pay and yes the airport is alot faster than a year ago. It use to be really bad, with looking thru bags etc. They would chek same bag 3 times but it was all half ass. I am a lot happier with there airport now. I am sure it will get better as time goes on. I am all for security but not if its all done half ass 3 times. It was terrible. Much better now.

New Umbrellas
There is some new permanent umbrellas in front of the Almirante and the New Intercontinental, not sure who paid for them and whether or not the are going to put them up the full distance of the beach or not. Guessing I would think the Intercontinental will be done by Christmas or so.

This is not really true at all, as in all countries you have your working girls and non working girls. I mean if you meet a girl that works as a waitress in a restaurant, there is no reason to think she is out selling her body at night. Not that it doesn't happen, but married women in the US and elsewhere often meet other guys and go out to dinner etc and cheat on there husbands, it doesn't mean there full blown working girls. Life with women is tough no matter how you look at it. Working girls, divorce, cheating husbands and wives, its not easy out there!

I will say basically in every culture women are with men for the money. Not to many smart, goodlooking girls I know in the US wants some bum with no money.

[QUOTE=Kokkieuitbogota;1384704]Every colombian girl with a foreigner is a working girl, it is always for the money.[/QUOTE]Not necessarily. I have been to Cartagena about 15 times in the past ten years and know a few Italians, English, and Americans married to a Colombiana. Me included. I agree that there are many as you described, but isn't that why they are there?
I am heading down in a few weeks. Looking forward to it.

The best answer I can give you is that at night when you go out be clean shaven, nice pair of jeans and a shirt that fits you. Don't wear sneakers! Look decent and wear your weight well and you will be fine. Try to practice your spanish! I suck at it and can only string a couple words together at a time but at least I can pick up some and ask some basic questions. Try to find a girl that actually has some interest in you, I have always done this and almost always had great sessions. Don't just try to get the best looking girl in the club without having any chemistry whatsoever. These girls are a much different beast then say Sosua or Puerto Plata girls that practically throw themeselves at you, its nothing like that, the girls in Colombia have a higher sense of class then other countries. I have seen them tell guys no they would not go with them, which you would never see in Sosua. So just follow what I said and you will be fine. Don't look like a slob! Hope this helped.

Cartagena beach hotel / accomodation advice
Hi there, I'm thinking about taking my first trip to Cartagena (in fact, to South America) , planning a 2-3 week holiday, in April or May. Want to stay somewhere on the beach which won't break the bank ($300+ per night is out of the question). Don't need 5 star luxury; but want a clean, safe, reasonably pleasant place (for the times when I want to just chill and read etc; don't want a depressing place) which will not charge me something outrageous (or even anything) if I want to bring a girl to my room. Something with facilities like a pool and / or gym would alo be nice, but might be too much to ask for. Anyway, any advice would be much appreciated!

My only mongering experience has been in the Philippines and that seemed a different animal than Columbia simply by reading the reports here. 98% of the girls in the Philippines are ready to go with you, in spite of physical appearance.
I can say that even in the Philippines I practiced the rules above. I always go for chemistry over looks. Just my style. I've never had a bad time either.
Thanks for the advice and I look forward to posting a trip report later this spring.

Yea everything seems to fall into place for me. Its funny, but I am real easy going and always have a good time. I never take myself to serious and it works for me. I try to give people as much info into my escapedes as possible with the thought of helping them if they take one of these trips.
I have always tried to post trip reports because I always remember when I was doing one of my first trips and I searched the internet and found various sites and for the most part people were really helpfull.
So I have always tried to give back, sometimes I will have been out drinking and log on and say some stupid stufff but for the most part I try to be as helpful as possible.
This next trip I am going to try to take many pictures and post them to show the various places and things in Cartagena.
As always when going out there are all kind of variables, thats what I love about traveling you never no who you will meet or how it will work out, I have had some great times traveling both fun and dangerous. But I am still hanging in there!

[url]www.thelocogringo.com[/url] It is on the Laguito beach. It is plenty quiet and dark in the bedroom. Rates are 100 a night. You could stay here a few nights then maybe longer if you like it. You guys familiar with Bbrocs 2 bedroom Lleras apartment is is almost exactly the same as that with a big 8 foot patio on 2 sides. Spacious as hell you could have a few friends over no problem, big living room, dining room, kitchen, big tvs in the bedroom and living room, couches new and comfortable, the a /c was more than ample, hot water worked fine. My only complaint was the maid didn't show up each day to renew the towels. Security at the front desk checks the ID of girls that look younger than 18, there is a beach gate that opens from the beach by day that goes right to your apartment. It is less than 50 feet to the nearest store, right across from the LDV, easy walk to Playa Hollywood, you can rent jet skis right in front of your apartment and is alot more private that some of the other buildings in Laguito where every taxi driver and doorman hollers out your name.

Update on Club Isis?
Hi all,
I'm a three time veteran of Cartagena and headed back down in two weeks for my first run of 2013. My last trip was the end of December 2012 and was disappointed that one of my favorite places to go called Club Isis was closed. They were moving to a new location inside the walled city and I was told they were scheduled to open in early 2013.
Does anyone know if Isis is open again and if so, has anyone been there who could provide some info on it?
Conversely, I stay in the San Diego area of the walled city and was looking for more places like Isis or Tu Candela that are inside the walled city to find sexy pros. Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Best,

Thanks Hillbilly69, really appreciate the response!
Most of the girls I have been with have come from LDV or inside the clock tower. In my three times to CTG I have yet to make it to Elektra as it's obviously open later and despite being a young guy, I'm too tired (read: horny) to wait up that late and I've already settled for a girl. However this upcoming trip I'm surely going to check it out and see what it's all about.
That said, if anyone is around March 14-18 and wants to possibly meet up for a beer and talk shop let me know. Additionally if anyone has a stable of girls they want to party with I have an amazing place that is HUGE which I can host a party and / or a super awesome orgy / gangbang at.
Happy hunting fellas!

Question about funds.
Lets say I wanted to go to CTG for ten days. What would be a good amount of money to plan on spending after airfare? Condo rental, food, drinks and dancing every night and maybe a chica per day?
Thanks
-
For me it's 600k pesos / day PLUS accommodation costs. I am sure lots of the people on this board will say this is way too much, but this number is based on actual amounts spend on at least 10 visits over the years, plus a prolonged period of a year that I was living there. When the exchange rate was better it used to be much less, of course.
It's based on partaking in the daytime at the beach, nighttime activity at Tu Candela or LDV etc, followed by Elektra. I know you can do it for a lot less, but when I'm vacationing I don't feel like working hard at saving $$$$.
CTG is expensive.

Even at only $100 a day, I was still holding back on some days and splurging on others. Buying art, beach trinkets-shit like that.

Co[/QUOTE]I was in the new location about 2 months ago. The way I used to remember it was an upscale 'girl-bar-club' clean, nice, and upscale women with some non-hunting tourists mingling in and nice hard loud club music.
I'm sorry to say that the new location is nothing like the old, so bad I didn't even stay for one beer ($10). Looked like a very small bar with a dozen or so tables around the walls and a pole in the middle with one girl dancing, the rest of the girls were 'working' the tables. Also looked like mostly colombian tourists in the place, I asked the door guy what kind of music they were playing and he said crossover / mix, it sucked. Sorry for the negative report, but thats how I saw it.

We might be talking about different types of party supplies. I was referring to perico, cripa is skunk. Such is the wonderful world of Colombia, perico is easier to get than cripa.
If you're friendly with a girl there, she'll be a better option than a random taxi driver. Either way, I've never had much of a problem either with supply or quality.

Thanks a lot for letting me know. Once I heard they took over Bananas I had a feeling it wouldn't be as good as I once walked into Bananas and it was just as you described it now, which is unfortunate.
Your assessment of the previous Isis location was spot on and why I loved it so much. Had great upscale women in a nice, clean bar. Still, I'll walk in and give it a whirl in hopes that there is a least one hottie worth spending a night with!
Thanks again.

Visiting 1st time
So I'll be visiting the historical city of Cartagena around May. This will also be my first time visiting Colombia. I've been to a few countries, such as the DR and Ecuador. And its interesting how different the women behave when comparing the two places. The working girls of Ecuador seemed more mechanical, showing very little or no affection. Which disappointingly makes sense since a woman working at a chongo must deal with a lot of shit which can harden them up a bit. Which is why I avoided las prepagos, and focused my attention on the solteras which I've done rather well for myself in that department. Now the DR is almost the complete opposite. The women there are friendlier, prettier, and sexier. I could go on and on but that's for the DR forum.
Now I'm asking you guys, how you would characterize the women in Cartagena, is it more like Ecuador, or the DR? Or is it in between the two or is it just in a whole other league. For someone such as myself, who is hispanic, fluent in spanish, and fairly young still will I do well for myself down there? Is it a safe place to visit on my own? I'm the type of person that likes to wonder off the beaten path and makes an effort to hangout at the local spots. Does Cartagena have any spots that our geared solely for locals, or is it all focused on tourists? I also wanted to point out that it seems like looking for a girl in Cartagena, they come with a premium. How much more is that, as appose to Medellin. Just wondering in case I want to kick myself in the ass for booking my trip to Cartagena instead of Medellin. Also, what's a good daily budget for an individual that is there looking for fun? Are there any Casas de Citas and if there are what's the average rate at these places? How are the strip clubs down there, are they worth the visit? And most importantly, is it worth visiting Baranquilla or Santa Marta? I sure hope this post is enough to spur some sort of a discussion where I could gain some more insight to better prepare myself towards my future travel.
-
Thanks for the info.
Thanks for the answers on my cost inquiry. CTG is only about $100 more for airfare than POP airport in the DR [from where I am flying out of right now. ] It seems hotel / condo rental will be a little bit more as well, but at least double / triple the cost in the daily expenses compared to Sosua, DR. I did have a blast in Sosua and thought there were more than enough beautiful women around on any given day. Plus, one thing I think the DR may have over CTG [correct me if I'm wrong, ] are the beaches. I thought Playa Sosua was very close to some of the beaches in Hawaii, my old home state. Also, I hear that CTG requires you to speak more Spanish than Sosua. If all this is true I may have to wait until I can speak enough Spanish to hold a decent conversation with a chica and maybe even a promotion at work to help pay for it LOL.
Bottom line-how worth it is it to visit CTG over the DR? Beaches are paramount to me and it seems DR has a lot more options as far as coastal towns to visit besides Sosua. Crime and corruption fall in place as well and I've read much in the DR forums on this subject. I haven't followed the Columbia forums in over a year but know that what happens in Colombia stays in Colombia-like your ass if you get caught breaking a law.
CTG [along with Thailand and Philippines, ] are on my to-do list before I die or get married, whichever comes first. But I want to do it right and may just have to use the DR and Sosua as a stepping stone for my Spanish, latin dancing, and mongering skills for the time being.
Any thoughts are appreciated.

[QUOTE=Black Page;1393358]I agree. It can be easily 400k if you avoid wasting money with drinks on the beach or buying bottles at the club, but not less unless you really miss the fun.[/QUOTE]Let me be more specific on how this total sums up. I consider:
- 90k for a good dinner in El Centro (my best choice: Santisimo) ;
- 200k for the girl (TDL with average negotiation skills)
- 50k+ for drinks at night (spending money for alcoolic drinks at the beach is a nonsense for me)
- 50k+ for various other expenses daytime, incl. lunch, taxis, etc.
Shiit! CTG is expensive! :eek:
(and I spent 100k-150k for a young girl + mamasan at my favourite casa at daytime too!)

Hey, Solo welcome to the board, to answer your questions accurately, I will tell you that if your Spanish is good you'll do pretty good with the chicas in Colombia, of course Colombian women are very warm and affectionate, if your skills as a player are damn good you won't need to be dealing with putas or paying for sex, just get a good tour guide to show you around and take you to where the Gems are "non-pros" I have noticed many of us here don't either know about where to find them or mention about them

Nice breakdown.
[QUOTE=Black Page; 1394788]Let me be more specific on how this total sums up. I consider:
- 90k for a good dinner in El Centro (my best choice: Santisimo) ;
- 200k for the girl (TDL with average negotiation skills)
- 50k+ for drinks at night (spending money for alcoolic drinks at the beach is a nonsense for me)
- 50k+ for various other expenses daytime, incl. Lunch, taxis, etc.
Shiit! CTG is expensive! .
(and I spent 100k-150k for a young girl + mamasan at my favourite casa at daytime too!) [/QUOTE]So this comes out to about $220-$300 a day for a good time in CTG. Damn, I'd hate to see how much a good day in Rio would cost. Say I was willing to forget the beaches for a vacation and do Medellin instead. How much cheaper-if at all-would it be going there instead of CTG? The main reason for Colombia is to try out the Colombian women, not the sand.

Hey guys,
I'm new to the group. A group of my friends is headed to Cartagena for my friends bachelor party in may. It will be everyone's first time except for me. I was wondering if any of you guys new a reliable guide / concierge to kind of lead us around to where all the good looking ladies / parties are and at the same time make sure we are not getting ripped off. If this guide were good we would use him for the next bachelor party we are having at the end of the year there.

[QUOTE=SoloAdvntrer; 1394626]So I'll be visiting the historical city of Cartagena around May. This will also be my first time visiting Colombia. I've been to a few countries, such as the DR and Ecuador. And its interesting how different the women behave when comparing the two places. The working girls of Ecuador seemed more mechanical, showing very little or no affection. Which disappointingly makes sense since a woman working at a chongo must deal with a lot of shit which can harden them up a bit. Which is why I avoided las prepagos, and focused my attention on the solteras which I've done rather well for myself in that department. Now the DR is almost the complete opposite. The women there are friendlier, prettier, and sexier. I could go on and on but that's for the DR forum.
Now I'm asking you guys, how you would characterize the women in Cartagena, is it more like Ecuador, or the DR? Or is it in between the two or is it just in a whole other league. For someone such as myself, who is hispanic, fluent in spanish, and fairly young still will I do well for myself down there? Is it a safe place to visit on my own? I'm the type of person that likes to wonder off the beaten path and makes an effort to hangout at the local spots. Does Cartagena have any spots that our geared solely for locals, or is it all focused on tourists? I also wanted to point out that it seems like looking for a girl in Cartagena, they come with a premium. How much more is that, as appose to Medellin. Just wondering in case I want to kick myself in the ass for booking my trip to Cartagena instead of Medellin. Also, what's a good daily budget for an individual that is there looking for fun? Are there any Casas de Citas and f there are what's the average rate at these places? How are the strip clubs down there, are they worth the visit? And most importantly, is it worth visiting Baranquilla or Santa Marta? I sure hope this post is enough to spur some sort of a discussion where I could gain some more insight to better prepare myself towards my future travel.[/QUOTE]Solo Advntrer.
I have visited both places. Cartagena many times like the hot weather and beaches though the beach in Cartagena is that great/
Cartagena has gotten expensive was just there in Feb. Food is expensive at least in the tourist area. Even the condos have gone up in price.
But you can find cheap airfare there.
My spanish is very limited and I am average looking but have blue eyes and that helps. I picked up a girl asked her to lunch the next day. She ended up going home with me that
Night left about midnight I gave her 150, 000 pesos more than I normally would because she was wild in bed. Pretty she she was a working girl, but she proceded to stay.
The next 5 nights with me and did not ask for money. So it is pn the possible to find local chicas.
But also watch out for the chicas on the beach agreeing tor 100, 000 pesos and then saying the price was 100 us dollars. This happened to me and if I did not know for.
Sure that we agreed on pesos I would have payed her the extra money. But when we nogotiated the price I talked with one of her friends that spoke english and was sure of the
Price,
Now I was in Medellin just once and was with a girl for most of the time, but had a few days to my self. I found the strip club I went was more expensive than Cartagena.
And the girls where not as good.
But I found the waiter-bouncer at this reggae bar in the parque Arearas not sure if I am spelling that correct. But he spoke english and could hook you up with some very hot young.
Chicas for 200, 000 pesos.
Another place you might want to consider is Cali. Chicas are very good looking and food is much cheaper and from reading the posts girls are much cheaper.
I also know a guy that lives there that would be very happy to show you the places to go. He does not speak english.
I meet him on my last visit to Cali in may. I was dating a girl from there that time.
One other thing I noticed that a good place to pickup young hot chicas is the main street that goes from the hilton to Hollywood beach.
There are condos there and a few chicas walk up the street and may approach you or you can talk with one of the guys standing there.
I saw a few 9 and 10; s there for around 150,000 pesos

Heck for $100, you can have sex with three or four Colombianas. If you want quality fun in the evening with a hottie, dinner and drinks, MDE is equally expensive, if not more. It all depends on what you want. For me, I am a night guy. I do day time casas only when I have nothing better to do. As I have said many times before, CTG is easier to navigate as it is smaller and concentrated. For nighttime fun in MDE, you have to work harder, unless you have contacts or friends with good contacts :-D.

[QUOTE=DecodedGold; 1394515]Hey SailingWhorist,
Thanks a lot for letting me know. Once I heard they took over Bananas I had a feeling it wouldn't be as good as I once walked into Bananas and it was just as you described it now, which is unfortunate.
Your assessment of the previous Isis location was spot on and why I loved it so much. Had great upscale women in a nice, clean bar. Still, I'll walk in and give it a whirl in hopes that there is a least one hottie worth spending a night with!
Thanks again.[/QUOTE]I am really bummed to hear about Isis. That was my favorite club, probably in all of Colombia. It had good good ambiance, beautiful classy women, good music etc. What a shame.
DecodedGold, Sounds like the bar went to shit but please give us a report on the women.

March 2013 Report
I just returned from a twelve day trip to Cartagena splitting time between family and fun time with chicas. My wife was not to arrive until three days after my arrival and my stepson a few days later.
I stayed at the Mirador del Laquito Apt 1002 which I arranged through Mery. It has two bedrooms, three flat screen TVs, two stereos and Wifi. After getting supplies at Olympica, I decided to head to the pool to spend the rest of the afternoon. There was a very good looking girl lounging poolside with her headphones on just relaxing. I was in the pool drinking a beer and just not thinking about too much when the lovely young thing asks if I had an extra beer. I gladly gave her one and proceeded to inquire about her status. I figured she was on a working vacation, but did not want to ruin a good conversation by suggesting she was available for cash. Her name was Maria and was from Perriera. A 21 year old about 5'8' 115 lbs and 34Cs will always catch my eye and I was not about to let this one get away.
I asked Maria if she would like to come up to my apartment for cocktails. She agreed to come up, but wanted to change clothes. After 45 minutes, I figured she would be a no-show, but soon rang the bell. We drank a couple vodka tonics and talked about her hometown, soon I found out she was in town for one more night and needed to make some money. I offered some financial support and we agreed to 200K for three hours. We headed to the bedroom and since we had both just showered, she removed her clothes to reveal a perfect body with long legs all the way up to a perfectly firm round ass, flat stomach and breasts the seemed to be filled with helium the way they did not droop. Maria, was able to deep throat me with ease, but with my shortcomings any girl might be able to accomplish that. She enjoys doggy style, but prefers being on top and reverse cowgirl. Her pussy tasted like fresh fruit and had a perfect shape to it. I was able to cum after 30 minutes which is good for a 58 year old man, but the next two hours would need special attention to complete the task. I love the way Colombianas make you feel special. After three hours, she left and later I bought her a drink at LDV before I headed back for some well needed sleep.
The next day, I took a walk around and headed to visit Tony at the beach. Tony's setup seems inferior now that there are all of the newer cabanas beachside and Tony has about three or four old umbrellas and chairs. Tony did not have any girls at the beach while the other touts had some nice looking girls that would rate an 8 or 9. Tony sat me in one of his chairs and pestered me into buying a beer for him while he called a few girls. Tony knows what I like – slender, young, nice legs, tight ass and sweet temperament. Soon Lisbeth showed up and I liked what I saw although she had braces. She asked for 250K for 90 minutes and I countered with 150K for 3 hours which is what I usually pay. Lisbeth has previously worked a year in Medellin and two years in Bogota. While only 24 years old, she has had a busy life so far. She said she would agree to 300K for three hours, but I laughed and said she is no longer at Lalos in Bogota. We did agree on 200K for three hours.
Lisbeth and I spent the next three hours getting to know each other. Her body is slender with 34Bs and a perfect ass. She offered anal, but I could hardly get a finger in her ass let alone my cock. So we played a lot with each other's bodies and was able to cum three times with her. She loved being on top and between sessions, she loves to wrap her arms around me and snuggle. After three hours of fun, she stayed for another two hours talking and going on the internet. She gave me her email address and Facebook information. She has about 100 pictures of herself and her friends and family. She has numerous girlfriends some of which are very hot and available. Lisbeth lives in a nice house and from the pictures, it appears she has a very normal life and is not in a dire need of money. It is somewhat sobering to see a girl you just fucked and came into her mouth for money and then to see her in a normal living environment. I had great time with her and later she would join my wife and I for a session.
The next day, my wife showed up and she had different ideas for my money. So after a day of shopping and renewing our relationship we headed out for a night. We started drinking shots of Chivas in the apartment, then headed to Plaza Santo Domingo for more Chivas. After dinner, we lost a hundred at the casino, and then headed to LDV. We had a few more shots when my wife headed to the bathroom only to return with a lovely 19 year old from Medellin. Her name was Vanessa and stood about 5'6' and 110 lbs. She had a pair of 36Cs and shorter blond hair. We ordered a drink for her which was good since the club requires a two drink minimum for the girls to purchase or they will not be allowed in the next night. I talked to Aldo about this and he said girls would come in only to quickly leave with a paying customer. I said why not just charge a small cover charge instead of requiring them to purchase expensive drinks.
My wife and Vanessa soon became close friends in the apartment, talking, laughing and dancing. After an hour, we finally headed to the bedroom. I am not a huge fan of threesomes because I feel left out at times. After a couple of climaxes by all of us, my wife passed out and I had a couple hours alone with this beauty sucking and fucking on the living room sofa. I finally climbed into bed around 7 am and then my wife woke me up a few minutes later to take our morning walk. WTF!
The next few days were spent with our stepson going to see the Bruce Willis Die Hard movie and the gory Hansel and Gretel picture. He left a few days later to go back to school.
The final few days were spent with my wife in bed and on occasion, we had Lisbeth join us for some fun.
A very enjoyable couple of weeks and now it is time to get back to work to make money for a return trip.

She was with a bunch of older ladies playing roulette and I never played much before and she was helping me. The next day she showed me around the city and things went from there. It was not until about 5 years ago she started to experiment with threesomes and it was her idea! I really do fee llucky. Her only request is that I am discreet since many people know us in Cartagena and she does not want to lose face with the locals.

Good time in Cartagena
Hi,
I just returned from Cartagena and had a good time there. My lack of spanish speaking skills and everyone trying to take my money eventually was frustrating. Cab drivers to beer salesman would always try to return me less money then what was the actual difference of what I paid for. Really a lot of hassle.
My major concern and question however has to do with Club Elektra. I heard good things about that place before arriving in Cartagena, but was disappointed to learn that anyone who I asked about the place, taxi drivers, all claimed the place was closed. Can anyone confirm if this is truly the case. Perhaps I misunderstood the taxi's but in many instances. 3 or 4 different taxis, stated they were closed. I wanted to enjoy nights just relaxing, but every night usually consisted of the same. I started by going to LDV, which was close to my apt in El laguito. I would have a few beers and try tot talk with the girls, but they remained within their own groups and quoted horrendously high quotes of 300k. After a few nights of the girls at LDV knowing I wasn't anteing up their price they all just kind of ignored me. I would eventually leave there around 1-2AM and head over to the clock tower area and Tu Candela's. I would get a beer or two and just chill there chatting up a few girls and possibly take back a girl or two on occasion. I ran into an English speaking local who introduced me to some girls, which was cool. He brought me over to Isis and I was not in the mood to pay the prices of the girls or for beers, especially with an absolutely rude staff that they have. I recall asking taxi's outside of Isis, Tu Candela's, and even LDV about club Elektra, but they all claimed, I believed, that the place was closed.
Can anyone please confirm if this is the case. Thanks for your help. Dates traveled 3/3. 3/8.
I believe if my spanish interpretation is correct, is that one taxi told me they got caught in a drug raid. I believe it was my fault for not staying close to the English speaking local, as I didn't have a cell phone to stay in touch, but assumed I could do fine on my own. I suppose I should've just used the payphone to get in touch with him.

I never did understand why they do not have meters like they do in Bogota. Whats really annoying is when you agree on one price, then upon arrival they try and charge you extra due to traffic, stop lights, angry wife. Etc etc.
Really annoying even for a native speaker.

To be honest, on my first night in CTG I asked a taxi driver about Elektra, and he too told me "it's closed", and then he proposed to take me to Pleyclub. I guess they do not take commission from Elektra, but a significant one from Pleyclub.

I didn't realize how close Elektra was from the clock tower, until after returning home and looking at hillbilly's map. I suppose I should have just walked there myself to find out the real truth, as you are correct in that many taxi's did try to direct me to Pleyclub. It was another frustration that I dealt with I suppose, as I felt most people there were being dishonest about just everything. I should have done better homework and research regarding Cartagena, and I likely would've had a better experience.
In another example of dishonesty, I went to the beach outside of the Hilton (had a connect there which allowed me to use the pool area) and guys would try selling me on jetski's. I really wanted to ride one on my visit but didn't want to make it too obvious to these guys. They started off with an offer of 150k for 30 minutes to which I just balked at and didn't even offer a counter proposal. They kept on going from 120k, then to 100k without me even making a counter. Eventually they got to around 80k for 30 min. They finally asked me what I was willing to pay and I said 50k for 30 min. They said that's not possible. Eventually led them to offer 70k and then down to 60k for 30 min, which I finally agreed to. Right before getting on the jetski's I asked 4-5 different people what the exact time was to make sure the guys didn't try to end my jetski time prematurely, as I was not carrying my cell phone into the water. I rode around for what felt like 20 some odd minutes and noticed the guys at bay waving their hands, signaling that my time was up. I assumed they were probably just lying and continued to ride around for another 2-3 minutes doing a few wave jumps and circles in deep water. When I got back to shore, I asked the guy what the time was and even looked at his watch for confirmation. Ity appears the guy went to the length of changing his time on his phone to make it look as though I used up all my time. I then asked two other people, not involved in the sale, what the time was and it was 8 minutes behind what the guy told me it was. I basically got 22 minutes of riding and was kind of pissed that I lost out on 8 minutes of riding.
This kind of scenario of dishonest dealing left me a bit soured on the place. Everyone appears to be so sketchy and it felt as though you couldn't trust anyone, even with the most harmless amount of intel. If I was standing outside the clock tower and asked someone for the time, and had visual confirmation from the clock tower, I would still be skeptical as to what they claimed to be the time. All in all, I wanted to have fun in Cartagena, and did to an extent, but I felt my trip became soured as I felt too many people there were dishonest and ruined my chances of having an even better time. A modicum of honesty can go a long way, and the people I dealt with were far from it. If they acted in an honest and respectful manner, I'd be more willing to use their services later on, even in a follow up visit, but it appears they just try to extract the most they can from you without regards to common business courtesy.
Again, I probably should've done better research on this site and stayed glued to the map provided by hillbilly. I should've just trusted myself and you guys for the intel for areas and places to go.

About dishonesty in Colombia
I hear you, I think any traveller that's gone to Colombia, has experienced this BS from Locals, That happened to me in MDE, Bogota, CTG but guys let me tell you that in Santa Marta it is even worse, and no matter where you go, cheap or expensive restaurants food just tastes bad there, Santa marta needs better chefs, I am sticking to CTG for now since I have friends and connectios there to keep away from the BS.

To answer your question, in my experience, it is not the norm. The take home here is that you need some basic spanish skills if you want to venture solo in Colombia. The difference between, "cerrado vs cerrado ahora" can be subtle and can be missed. Also, I notice that once people realize that you do not know even a little bit of their language, they do not make much of an effort to explain the details. Alternatively, one can potentially run into unscrupulous taxi drivers anywhere in the world. I cannot tell you the number of times I was nudged to go to a different strip club in the US. You just hear what they have to say and ignore them. CTG, unlike BOG and MDE is a tourist place and is no different from other tourist towns all over the world. Glad you did not let that get to you and still managed to go out. Personally, I never had any issues with taxis in CTG. I have travelled extensively and I must say without a doubt that Colombians are one of the most honest people within the developing world.
The jet ski guy does sound like an asshole.

A few questions
Hi guys,
Am thinking of going to Cartagena mid April for 3/4 nights.
I have been to St Maarten many times and it seems that prices are half at the source, Colombia.
Ideally, I would like to find a chica (or 2) early afternoon to hang with til the next morning.
Is there a Seamans / Carolinas case type scene in Cartagena where I can take out a chica to play with in the day time and beyond?
Seems from reading the forum there is a lot of freelances around.
Also, I just checked out PLAYA MAR APTS, right on the beach. Looks good, any opinions on that too? Or good central beach places for around 100 bucks per night?
Many thanks.

The jet ski guy does sound like an asshole.[/QUOTE]Update, I just spoke with the English speaking local who helped me out my first few nights in town. I never asked him specifically about Elektra while in CTG. I just spoke with him briefly over the phone, and asked him about Elektra as well as a few other things. He claimed Elektra has been closed for about a week now because the owner didn't pay rent or something like that, said he was always in the casino's gambling. Elektra being closed may actually have legs to it, as cab drivers who were dropping me off at clock tower / Tu candela's, after refusing PleyClub, would have no incentive at that point to lie about Elektra being closed. Having heard from my English speaking local friend, I have more conviction in my belief that it was in fact closed during my stay 3/3-3/9. My Eng speaking local friend said it had been closed for about a week, which would coincide with my stay there exactly, and also be around the time the previous poster Blackpage saying it was open from 2/28. 3/3. I didn't even inquire about elektra on my first night there 3/3. Perhaps it is in fact closed, which I walked over there myself to be 100% positive. It does appear to be a temp closing according to my friend, as the guy may in fact settle his dues and it will reopen at some point.
My nights in CTG, which surprisingly got progressively worse.
1st night. I was staying with family friends, who were conservative and aged, and sleeping on a couch in an apt in EL laguito. Bringing back girls wasn't an option. Had dinner with the family friends in downtown / old city. Afterwards the went home and I went over to Tu Candela's. Place was completely empty outside, so I decided to venture outside. I decided to stay outside as it was much more livelier than inside TC. I was on the hunt for some party supplies, as I figured might as well in Colombia. I wasn't exactly hip to the game, so I just asked some guy who was trying to sell me some cigars. He was ready for the handoff, but I made sure to take a look at my surroundings to make sure everything was ok. I saw some guy on a roof who was avidly paying attention and felt something was fishy, so I just walked away to go to a bench / sitting area. I just chilled out there for a few minutes drinking a beer I had purchased outside. One nice young girl with a pretty face ventured over to come talk to me. I thought she was pretty looking so I entered the conversation and got right down to business. I learned TLN from you guys, so I broke that out on her to get a gauge of what kind of price she was looking at. I believe she offered either 175 or 200k (could've even been 150k, I was a little drunk at that point). I knew a TLN was out of the possibility as I was staying over a guest's house and it would be completely unacceptable, and only asked for reference. I ended up asking for how much for an hour. I got quoted at 100k, which was fine for me as she looked really pretty and young. Not a crazy body, but I'm a sucker for a pretty face. She also seemed very nice and pleasant which is also a major plus in my books, as I've got a low tolerance for bitches. We ended up chatting for a bit, until she found the English speaking local, who I guess helped her with us foreigners. I met him and chatted him up. Pretty decent guy from everyone else I had to deal with. He explained to me clearly that I shouldn't be buying nay of that stuff out on the streets as everyone is watching and to go somewhere else to complete the transaction. He told me, the girl, and the seller of the goods to walk over to some bar outside of the walled city, directly across, forgot the name it was a small place with not much going on. We ended up completing the transaction here, and I proceeded to the bathroom. Once I cam back out, the seller was gone, and me and the girl just chatted for a few, as much as we could without really understanding one another. We had a beer each and I went outside and smoked a cigarette, and she asked for one as well. We wrapped up at this place, and headed back over to the clock tower area to meet the eng speaking local, who we'll call Joe for simplicity, not his actual name. Joe advised that we could go to a nearby motel that charges by the hour for 20k. I said fine, as I had no other place to go with the girl. We made a quick stop at Isis, but I didn't even venture inside and it was straight to the room. The guy at the reception handed me two condoms and off we went. We got down right to it with little to no foreplay. I guess I had a lot of pent up energy and I barely lasted a minute, feeling slightly embarrassed, but she was hot. We chilled for a few and did some foreplay for a while. I was fingering her good and felt her wet as anything. We suddenly get a knock on the door implying that our time was up. She negotiated with the guy that it would only be a few more minutes. Knowing my time was running out, I quickly got into gear and we went at it again for a good 5-10 minutes pretty hard. Ended up cleaning up and leaving the place, walked over to Isis to say thanks to Joe and had to head back home, as I had an early morning. It was only 130-2 am at this point. The young lady was chipper and happy, which was a good thing. She had a glow to her face, so although I didn't last incredibly long, I think I left her satisfied with the encounter. Took a taxi and went back to el laguito for 7k, and all in all it was a very good night.
2nd night. I decided to be adventurous this night, and headed over to the Pleyclub to check out the action there. A couple of girls approached me together and chatted me up. They both asked for drinks and after looking at the prices, I was in no mood to cough up a healthy dose of money. I ended up finishing a beer and jsut left the place to head back to TC area. This is where things tarted to go wrong. I was till carrying the stuff I had from the previous night and on the taxi ride back to old city we were pulled over by the police. My naive American just assumed they were doing a sobriety check and didn't assume much. Next thing I know the officer is pulling me outside of the vehicle. He made me empty my pockets and although I left my stash in my fifth pocket, he felt it and made sure I knew he felt it. At this point, I kind of realized what was up. I tried to balk for a minute but I realized these guys wanted some money. I ended up handing over 30k to one of the officers and tried to see if that was good enough. The other officer then motioned that he needed something for himself as well. I pulled out another 20k and handed it over and luckily he allowed me to leave. This was fortunate, as when I pulled out everything from my pockets, I had over $250 US and like 200K Colombian. I knew I was getting the shake down and just relented, I suppose it could've been much worse. Luckily I had won about 70k in the casino earlier in the day, so the loss wasn't as severe, but it made me feel like crap that I just got shook down regardless. The taxi continued on to TC area and I got out of the car a little nervous from what happened prior. The same girl from my first night spotted my arrival and came up to me and gave me a hug and a kiss. Joe must've shown up shortly there after. I suppose I'm a weird guy but I never like doing things two nights in a row, and was kind of picky about going with the same girl again, but she was hot so I agreed. Not doing the same thing on two consecutive nights also probably led them to PleyClub, which ultimately regret for leaving the Old city / Boca grande region, a truly regrettable action. I ended up trying to play hardball with the girl thinking I could get a better deal, and slightly pissed off at getting shook down by the police. I talked her down to 80 for one hour thinking the deal would be good. Same scenario as the night before. I had no place of my own and we went to the same motel that charges by the hour. Almost groundhog day type of shit, except the shakedown bit. When I tried to get the condoms from the guys at the desk, he hands me one, but I ask for two. The girl then makes it a point that we will only need one condom. In retrospect I should've just coughed up the extra 20k and possibly even given more considering the rest of my nights here were not as great as my first. What actually happened was me getting upset and playing hardball yet again on the point of brinksmanship, I suppose the shakedown left me bitter. I just asked my money back from the guy at the motel and walked away, thinking the girl may budge. She didn't. I should've used a little better diplomacy and just coughed up the money she wanted originally. My biggest mistake while in CTG, besides getting shook down. I ended up calling it a night and proceeded to go back home via taxi, as I had another early morning. Quite depressing to say the least, that approximately $10 US cost me having fun to not having fun. I'm a fool for sure.
3rd night. The night I finally had my own place to myself, an apt from Juan in Playa Mar. I ended up going back to the TC area to scope the action out there. My boy Joe introduced me to some girls who were ok looking but nothing extravagant. I ended up chatting with one of them, as she spoke decent english, and even brought her a few relatively cheap priced drinks outside of TC. After a while however, I realized this wasn't the quality of girl I was looking for, even though she was nice and pleasant. She just didn't do it for me. I ended up catching up with Joe again, who had met up with another American. I decided to kick it with the American just talking bullshit and get a gauge on where he was headed for some action. I had to take a [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] anyways, and he said he was going to head over to some stripclub which turned out to be Isis. I agreed as I figured it would be cool to hang around some people I understood and not feel alone. The same girl however from the two previous nights was with the American's friend. I wasn't going to be a child about it however, and realized the line of work. We both still kind of just had friction towards each other. No eye contact and no pleasantry salutations. I just went with the flow anyhow. We ended up getting into Isis and sat down. With in a short period of time a couple of girls joined me and the American. The girl was ok, and I only let her stick around because I didn't want to be the only guy at the table without a girl to chat and flirt with. The American offered to buy me a couple of drinks inside, which was cool and I returned the favor by offering him some part favors. This is where things started to get sketchy however. The new girl starts ordering some tequila shots for herself, to which I never recall agreeing to. I decide to go to to the back of the place where they allow you to smoke cigarettes. The new girl joined me and just started kissing me. I normally don't kiss girls in this profession, but for some reason, probably alcohol and party goods, I participated. It did get me more interested in the lady however. We venture back inside and the bill arrives. It was something like 220k, which I had no intention of contributing to three ways (73k each) , especially considering the American said he would buy me two of my drinks and I don't recall telling the girl I would pay for her drinks. The American suggests I pay 60k, to which I still balk at, as I was only really expecting to pay for one of my drinks the entire time I was there. I finally agree to avoid hassles and upsetting everyone that I would pay 40k out of pocket. I talk to the girl and question why I'm paying for her drinks. She tells me as well to just pay 40 and that would be fine. The American and his friend are incredulous and just leave the place. I end up staying behind trying to sort out the bar tab of whatever the difference was. I imagine around 60k. I eventually pay over my 40k and as I'm walking out I see the bouncers pointing at me, which makes me nervous, especially considering I got shook down the night earlier. Not sure if these guys plan to beat me outside for not paying the full total, or if the would call the cops to have me shook down as well. Figured I was safe in the place and tried to subdue on the staff members who was just giving me dirty looks. My paranoia eventually faded, and I figured what ever was going to happen was going to happen. I ended up leaving on my own, and was happy to see Joe still standing outside. I took a taxi immediately however to just get away fromt hat place, but did notice the girl from the 1st 2 nights was still with Joe and didn't leave with the American or his friend. I noticed the girl was looking uncomfortable prior to leaving as was I. Within a minute in the taxi, I decided to give Joe a call and had the taxi turn around. I talked to Joe about the girl from the 1st 2 nights and asked if she was willing to go back with me. Joe explained to me that she just got a knife pulled on her from one of the girl's inside and was shaken up, and would not be able to participate, which sucked ass, because at this point I was really into her and she was the best option around. Jpe told me she could call a friend for 60k. I said f it, let's go, as it was already 4 am at this point and the night was getting bonkers. The girl was around a 7 or so, nothing spectacular but would do the deed at that hour. We ended up going back to my apt and chilled on the balcony for a bit sipping a drink in the apt. We went into the bedroom and got it on quickly. She was very tight which was a major plus. I performed much longer with her, and we had a decent time. Ended up doing it twice and it was pleasurable, not a bad experience. She ended up taking a taxi back and I gave her 10k fro the ride back. Not bad for the total price, but I would have still liked to have gotten with girl number 1.
Will give reports for nights 4 and 5 tomorrow. These do take a long time to type out.4 pages in google doc document that I copied to. God damn.

[QUOTE=Cocinero; 1397091]Hi guys,
Am thinking of going to Cartagena mid April for 3/4 nights.
I have been to St Maarten many times and it seems that prices are half at the source, Colombia.
Ideally, I would like to find a chica (or 2) early afternoon to hang with til the next morning.
Is there a Seamans / Carolinas case type scene in Cartagena where I can take out a chica to play with in the day time and beyond?
Seems from reading the forum there is a lot of freelances around.
Also, I just checked out PLAYA MAR APTS, right on the beach. Looks good, any opinions on that too? Or good central beach places for around 100 bucks per night?
Many thanks.[/QUOTE]Stayed at playa mar 801 overlooking the ocean. Two bedrooms for around $66 a night. Juan will quote 75. Try to negotiate with him a little. He wanted $225 for 3 nights, but I talked him into $200 for the three nights. Pretty good area and decent apartment for the cost, although I would contemplate checking on hillybilly's connection. I saw his link and they do have an apartment for $50 night for one bedroom.

Cartagena after st maarten experience

Prices you pay will be about the same as in St Maarten. However, since there are not any casas that tourists frequent, this means that most girls are freeelance and you don't have to pay casa fines to take them out. LDV is the freelance bar for chicas and there are a few later night bars as well. If you go to the beach during the day time, you will run into available girls there. However, at the beach you have to worry about umbrella guys like Tony who pimp girls and take a cut. Cartagena is more free wheeling than St Maarten (where the girls are all in a few casas and the rules are well known).
Girls in Cartagena have a harder time marketing their services, since they are freelance. They cannot expect to have 5 or 10 short term clients in one night, as in St Maarten. Therefore, TLN prices can be lower (since they are not giving up as much potential revenue).

[QUOTE=Vitrea; 1397009]Thank you for your posts and sorry about the no-so-great experience you had. To answer your question, in my experience, it is not the norm. The take home here is that you need some basic spanish skills if you want to venture solo in Colombia. The difference between,"cerrado vs cerrado ahora" can be subtle and can be missed. Also, I notice that once people realize that you do not know even a little bit of their language, they do not make much of an effort to explain the details. Alternatively, one can potentially run into unscrupulous taxi drivers anywhere in the world. I cannot tell you the number of times I was nudged to go to a different strip club in the US. You just hear what they have to say and ignore them. CTG, unlike BOG and MDE is a tourist place and is no different from other tourist towns all over the world. Glad you did not let that get to you and still managed to go out. Personally, I never had any issues with taxis in CTG. I have travelled extensively and I must say without a doubt that Colombians are one of the most honest people within the developing world.
The jet ski guy does sound like an asshole.[/QUOTE]Update, I just spoke with the English speaking local who helped me out my first few nights in town. I never asked him specifically about Elektra while in CTG. I just spoke with him briefly over the phone, and asked him about Elektra as well as a few other things. He claimed Elektra has been closed for about a week now because the owner didn't pay rent or something like that, said he was always in the casino's gambling. Elektra being closed may actually have legs to it, as cab drivers who were dropping me off at clock tower / Tu candela's, after refusing PleyClub, would have no incentive at that point to lie about Elektra being closed. Having heard from my English speaking local friend, I have more conviction in my belief that it was in fact closed during my stay 3/3-3/8. My Eng speaking local friend said it had been closed for about a week, which would coincide with my stay there exactly, and also be around the time the previous poster Blackpage saying it was open from 2/28. 3/3. I didn't even inquire about elektra on my first night there 3/3. Perhaps it is in fact closed, wish I walked over there myself to be 100% positive. It does appear to be a temp closing according to my friend, as the guy may in fact settle his dues and it will reopen at some point.

my nights in ctg, which surprisingly got progressively worse.
1st night. i was staying with family friends, who were conservative and aged, and sleeping on a couch in an apt in el laguito. bringing back girls wasn't an option. had dinner with the family friends in downtown / old city. afterwards the went home and i went over to tu candela's. place was completely empty outside, so i decided to venture outside. i decided to stay outside as it was much more livelier than inside tc. i was on the hunt for some party supplies, as i figured might as well in colombia. i wasn't exactly hip to the game, so i just asked some guy who was trying to sell me some cigars. he was ready for the handoff, but i made sure to take a look at my surroundings to make sure everything was ok. i saw some guy on a roof who was avidly paying attention and felt something was fishy, so i just walked away to go to a bench / sitting area. i just chilled out there for a few minutes drinking a beer i had purchased outside. one nice young girl with a pretty face ventured over to come talk to me. i thought she was pretty looking so i entered the conversation and got right down to business. i learned tln from you guys, so i broke that out on her to get a gauge of what kind of price she was looking at. i believe she offered either 175 or 200k (could've even been 150k, i was a little drunk at that point). i knew a tln was out of the possibility as i was staying over a guest's house and it would be completely unacceptable, and only asked for reference. i ended up asking for how much for an hour. i got quoted at 100k, which was fine for me as she looked really pretty and young. not a crazy body, but i'm a sucker for a pretty face. she also seemed very nice and pleasant which is also a major plus in my books, as i've got a low tolerance for bitches. we ended up chatting for a bit, until she found the english speaking local, who i guess helped her with us foreigners. i met him and chatted him up. pretty decent guy from everyone else i had to deal with. he explained to me clearly that i shouldn't be buying nay of that stuff out on the streets as everyone is watching and to go somewhere else to complete the transaction. he told me, the girl, and the seller of the goods to walk over to some bar outside of the walled city, directly across, forgot the name it was a small place with not much going on. we ended up completing the transaction here, and i proceeded to the bathroom. once i cam back out, the seller was gone, and me and the girl just chatted for a few, as much as we could without really understanding one another. we had a beer each and i went outside and smoked a cigarette, and she asked for one as well. we wrapped up at this place, and headed back over to the clock tower area to meet the eng speaking local, who we'll call joe for simplicity, not his actual name. joe advised that we could go to a nearby motel that charges by the hour for 20k. i said fine, as i had no other place to go with the girl. we made a quick stop at isis, but i didn't even venture inside and it was straight to the room. the guy at the reception handed me two condoms and off we went. we got down right to it with little to no foreplay. i guess i had a lot of pent up energy and i barely lasted a minute, feeling slightly embarrassed, but she was hot. we chilled for a few and did some foreplay for a while. i was fingering her good and felt her wet as anything. we suddenly get a knock on the door implying that our time was up. she negotiated with the guy that it would only be a few more minutes. knowing my time was running out, i quickly got into gear and we went at it again for a good 5-10 minutes pretty hard. ended up cleaning up and leaving the place, walked over to isis to say thanks to joe and had to head back home, as i had an early morning. it was only 130-2 am at this point. the young lady was chipper and happy, which was a good thing. she had a glow to her face, so although i didn't last incredibly long, i think i left her satisfied with the encounter. took a taxi and went back to el laguito for 7k, and all in all it was a very good night.
2nd night. i decided to be adventurous this night, and headed over to the pleyclub to check out the action there. a couple of girls approached me together and chatted me up. they both asked for drinks and after looking at the prices, i was in no mood to cough up a healthy dose of money. i ended up finishing a beer and jsut left the place to head back to tc area. this is where things tarted to go wrong. i was till carrying the stuff i had from the previous night and on the taxi ride back to old city we were pulled over by the police. my naive american just assumed they were doing a sobriety check and didn't assume much. next thing i know the officer is pulling me outside of the vehicle. he made me empty my pockets and although i left my stash in my fifth pocket, he felt it and made sure i knew he felt it. at this point, i kind of realized what was up. i tried to balk for a minute but i realized these guys wanted some money. i ended up handing over 30k to one of the officers and tried to see if that was good enough. the other officer then motioned that he needed something for himself as well. i pulled out another 20k and handed it over and luckily he allowed me to leave. this was fortunate, as when i pulled out everything from my pockets, i had over $250 us and like 200k colombian. i knew i was getting the shake down and just relented, i suppose it could've been much worse. luckily i had won about 70k in the casino earlier in the day, so the loss wasn't as severe, but it made me feel like crap that i just got shook down regardless. the taxi continued on to tc area and i got out of the car a little nervous from what happened prior. the same girl from my first night spotted my arrival and came up to me and gave me a hug and a kiss. joe must've shown up shortly there after. i suppose i'm a weird guy but i never like doing things two nights in a row, and was kind of picky about going with the same girl again, but she was hot so i agreed. not doing the same thing on two consecutive nights also probably led them to pleyclub, which ultimately regret for leaving the old city / boca grande region, a truly regrettable action. i ended up trying to play hardball with the girl thinking i could get a better deal, and slightly pissed off at getting shook down by the police. i talked her down to 80 for one hour thinking the deal would be good. same scenario as the night before. i had no place of my own and we went to the same motel that charges by the hour. almost groundhog day type of shit, except the shakedown bit. when i tried to get the condoms from the guys at the desk, he hands me one, but i ask for two. the girl then makes it a point that we will only need one condom. in retrospect i should've just coughed up the extra 20k and possibly even given more considering the rest of my nights here were not as great as my first. what actually happened was me getting upset and playing hardball yet again on the point of brinksmanship, i suppose the shakedown left me bitter. i just asked my money back from the guy at the motel and walked away, thinking the girl may budge. she didn't. i should've used a little better diplomacy and just coughed up the money she wanted originally. my biggest mistake while in ctg, besides getting shook down. i ended up calling it a night and proceeded to go back home via taxi, as i had another early morning. quite depressing to say the least, that approximately $10 us cost me having fun to not having fun. i'm a fool for sure.
3rd night. the night i finally had my own place to myself, an apt from juan in playa mar. i ended up going back to the tc area to scope the action out there. my boy joe introduced me to some girls who were ok looking but nothing extravagant. i ended up chatting with one of them, as she spoke decent english, and even brought her a few relatively cheap priced drinks outside of tc. after a while however, i realized this wasn't the quality of girl i was looking for, even though she was nice and pleasant. she just didn't do it for me. i ended up catching up with joe again, who had met up with another american. i decided to kick it with the american just talking bullshit and get a gauge on where he was headed for some action. i had to take a [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] anyways, and he said he was going to head over to some stripclub which turned out to be isis. i agreed as i figured it would be cool to hang around some people i understood and not feel alone. the same girl however from the two previous nights was with the american's friend. i wasn't going to be a child about it however, and realized the line of work. we both still kind of just had friction towards each other. no eye contact and no pleasantry salutations. i just went with the flow anyhow. we ended up getting into isis and sat down. with in a short period of time a couple of girls joined me and the american. the girl was ok, and i only let her stick around because i didn't want to be the only guy at the table without a girl to chat and flirt with. the american offered to buy me a couple of drinks inside, which was cool and i returned the favor by offering him some part favors. this is where things started to get sketchy however. the new girl starts ordering some tequila shots for herself, to which i never recall agreeing to. i decide to go to to the back of the place where they allow you to smoke cigarettes. the new girl joined me and just started kissing me. i normally don't kiss girls in this profession, but for some reason, probably alcohol and party goods, i participated. it did get me more interested in the lady however. we venture back inside and the bill arrives. it was something like 220k, which i had no intention of contributing to three ways (73k each) , especially considering the american said he would buy me two of my drinks and i don't recall telling the girl i would pay for her drinks. the american suggests i pay 60k, to which i still balk at, as i was only really expecting to pay for one of my drinks the entire time i was there. i finally agree to avoid hassles and upsetting everyone that i would pay 40k out of pocket. i talk to the girl and question why i'm paying for her drinks. she tells me as well to just pay 40 and that would be fine. the american and his friend are incredulous and just leave the place. i end up staying behind trying to sort out the bar tab of whatever the difference was. i imagine around 60k. i eventually pay over my 40k and as i'm walking out i see the bouncers pointing at me, which makes me nervous, especially considering i got shook down the night earlier. not sure if these guys plan to beat me outside for not paying the full total, or if the would call the cops to have me shook down as well. figured i was safe in the place and tried to subdue on the staff members who was just giving me dirty looks. my paranoia eventually faded, and i figured what ever was going to happen was going to happen. i ended up leaving on my own, and was happy to see joe still standing outside. i took a taxi immediately however to just get away fromt hat place, but did notice the girl from the 1st 2 nights was still with joe and didn't leave with the american or his friend. i noticed the girl was looking uncomfortable prior to leaving as was i. within a minute in the taxi, i decided to give joe a call and had the taxi turn around. i talked to joe about the girl from the 1st 2 nights and asked if she was willing to go back with me. joe explained to me that she just got a knife pulled on her from one of the girl's inside and was shaken up, and would not be able to participate, which sucked ass, because at this point i was really into her and she was the best option around. jpe told me she could call a friend for 60k. i said f it, let's go, as it was already 4 am at this point and the night was getting bonkers. the girl was around a 7 or so, nothing spectacular but would do the deed at that hour. we ended up going back to my apt and chilled on the balcony for a bit sipping a drink in the apt. we went into the bedroom and got it on quickly. she was very tight which was a major plus. i performed much longer with her, and we had a decent time. ended up doing it twice and it was pleasurable, not a bad experience. she ended up taking a taxi back and i gave her 10k fro the ride back. not bad for the total price, but i would have still liked to have gotten with girl number 1.
will give reports for nights 4 and 5 tomorrow. these do take a long time to type out. 4 pages in google doc document that i copied to. god damn.[/quote]4th night. this night i wanted to try something different and knew of the club in el laguito, which i actually walked into not knowing what it was called while coming home the first night attempting to go to horus casino. i was still somewhat awake from my adventures on night #1 and didn't want to stay awake alone on the couch at a guest's place. when i walked into ldv on night #1 i expected to see casino tables but saw it was dark inside and only had a bar to it. wasn't looking for more action on night 1, so i just ended up asking a bouncer where the casino was. lol, it appears i walked right past it. i ended up drinking a beer at horus and leaving shortly thereafter on night 1, not realizing that the place i originally walked into was ldv. well on night 4, i ended up going back to ldv, not realizing it was ldv, because i wanted to pregame at a local place before heading on to other things. i ended up chatting with a few girls, some very hot, and even got quoted for a decent rate for one hour of action. may have been in the 100k range. i'm not the kind of guy who likes to get his action that early in the night 12am, and enjoy drinking and partying with a crowd till the night gets stale. then at that point, later in the night, i'm up for some action. still not realizing it was ldv, i casually asked one of the girls i chatted with what the name of the place was, which she replied la dolce vida. i was like ahhh, i've been sort of kind of looking for this place and even walked in here at one point, but now i realize i'm actually here. mind blown. i suppose the smart thing to do here was keep friendly conversations going with the women and take down some phone numbers. wish i had that foresight at the time as there were definitely some lookers in the place. before i knew it, i think i went out for a smoke or something and when i returned it was getting close to empty. i suppose this is yet another mistake i made. i figured keeping a girl around at ldv would require me to keep ordering drinks or close the deal and agree to leave with them. the partying for 3 nights in a row i suppose took its toll and i wasn't being as friendly as i could possibly be. i still should have made an attempt to find out where the girls were headed or secure some numbers, at the very least, for some quick day action or maybe a late night call, even if i didn't want to buy them drinks at ldv. i recall reading these forums and you guys mentioning that the girls leave ldv and go to another place, and then proceeded to ask the taxicab about club elektra. the taxi driver said it was closed and replied europa was still an option. i had the taxi take me over to europa and it was dead outside and inside. not sure if the place would liven up shortly but i wasn't in the mood to wait around, so i ended up going back to the clock tower area. i may have chilled outside scoping the action and drank a few drinks hoping that i would run into joe around there, or secure some nice piece by myself. my mistake, again, was never making the effort to get a sim card i could plug into my phone. i perhaps could have relied on payphones when i need it, but i suppose i got lazy. anyways, not much going on by the clock tower, never met joe, and it was approaching 4 am. i decided to just grab the best looking broad still around and try to negotiate a fair price. i got a decent looking girl to agree for 80k for an hour. i agreed and we hopped in a taxi and headed back to my apartment. when we got back, she asked me to make a her a drink, which i did. i pulled out some party favors to get me ready for the action and she asked for some too. after giving her some of the stuff, she then proceeded to ask me to pay in advance for our session. luckily she spoke english well enough, so i understood what she was saying. i told her that i would pay her after. she said if she didn't get paid in advance that she would leave. i said ok, and she astonishingly got up off the couch and walked out. i wasn't going to pay her in advance to only have her create issues later on, plus she wasn't super attractive to the point of paying in advance and making concessions to. you do your services and then get paid. still kind of shocked she took the trouble of getting up from the clock tower area, agreeing on a price, getting comfortable with a drink and some party favors, and then deciding to leave with nothing in hand to show for it. mind boggling. like i said, the nights got progressively worse, but the worst was yet to come.
night 5. i spent the day at the hilton with my family friends, and that's also the day i ran into the jetski scammers. still had fun on the jetski's but i did feel a little robbed that i'd didn't get the fulltime that suppose to be allocated. one of the reasons i couldn't really have day action in el laguito is because my family friends stayed on the same street and i didn't want word to get around of my activities. i tried to play it cool during the day, even as good lookers were propositioning me on the walk in el laguito. another mistake i suppose i made was not going overt o playa hollywood on my stay in ctg. it was a little away from main streets i imagine and i could've partook in some conversations and what not there. anyways, after dinner with my family friends at riquismo's, i headed back to the apartment for some light pregaming and planned to head over to ldv shortly thereafter. i ended up getting to ldv a little early, around 11:30ish. i chatted up a few girls inside, but one of them was asking for like 300k tln. way out of my range at this point, and she wasn't hot enough to justify that price. i did run out fo party favors and did inquire with the girls i was chatting with if they could assist me. they were being stand offish and said they could help me get some if we went for some action back at my place. i'm not a regular user, but the party favors would give me a little wake me up after 4 days of hard partying at that point, so i was really keen on getting some to feel better. the girls were not being helpful and it was getting close to 1am at this point. i didn't want to be up all night from the party favors, as i was leaving el laguito area around 12ish and had to be up by 11am the latest, luckily i packed the night before however. i decided i couldn't wait around for the girls to help me out, so i just jumped in a taxi and see if i could get some from him or by tc, hopefully running into joe at some point. the taxi i got into actually had some on his person and i just ended up getting it from him. in retrospect, i should've just went back to ldv at that point and kept drinking and eventually picked out a girl to leave with. i believe i ended up just asking the driver about elektra and he said it was closed, fml. i told him to take me over to club isis. the driver was keen on leaving me at isis and said i could go use the bathroom inside of there. for some reason i agreed. i ended up getting a drink at isis and used the bathroom to loosen up a little. after 20-30 minutes however i was out of the place and left. i proceeded to go over to the clock tower area and just hung around for a few minutes seeing if anything was going on outside. eventually it was the same crap but it did appear tu candela's had something going on. i decided to venture in hoping to see some good action. ended up being completely filled and there were not many girls still left around. i still stayed and had a few drinks hoping something would come along but it never did. i still did not want to walk the streets carrying around my party supplies so i ended up going to the bathroom a final time and did a decent amount and threw over half of the full amount down the drain. in all honesty, it was the most free i felt in ctg after a while. i knew the cops no longer could shake me down and i felt like i lifted the weight off of my shoulders. what i didn't realize at the time however, was that the stuff that i got from the taxi was probably cut with a lot of speed, i imagine. i'm not an expert but this stuff had me feeling very jittery all night and i was not feeling relaxed and cool. later on i noticed my eyes were severely dilated and i felt like i was tweaked out. i've never tweaked before, but that's how i believe it would feel. there's a small chance it was some super pure stuff that makes you feel like that, but i doubt it. from my use in the states i've gotten a pretty decent handle of what i should feel like. there's been times in the us where i've gotten below par party favors, but also plenty of time i got some really good stuff. this stuff from the taxi wasn't on the scale of really good stuff. i should've just contacted joe, yet again, as he even advised me that most of the stuff these guys will have is cut up with some stuff, and that he had a good connect himself. i naively assumed the stuff would be so plentiful in ctg that there would be no reason to adulterate the stuff as it would be everywhere for low prices. i should have just trusted joe with everything from girl acquisitions to part favor procurement. once again, a phone would've, made things easier, but i probably felt i would be fine getting the things myself. sometimes you have to touch the stove with your hands yourself, even if many people warned you that its really hot. i should have just trusted the advice from joe and had him get me the better quality, unadulterated stuff, because this stuff made me feel like crap. anyways, at this time 4am nothing much going outside of tu candela's so i decided to get into a taxi to see if i could find another place to scoop a girl for a final night in ctg. nothing was really going on at this hour, so i just told the taxi to be on the lookout for anything walking on the way to el laguito. we ended up catching a broad who was walking outside of ldv on the steps and decided to inquire. i wish i had not. she was at best a 4, even with beer goggles. she agreed to 60k for an hour, and i guess i just wanted some quick action before heading out of town. we get back to my apartment area and the taxi wanted 10k for his troubles, which i really didn't feel like arguing 3k over so i said ok, but the problem was i only had 50k notes at this point. the girl gave the driver 10k and held on to my 50, with me assuming i would pay her 20k later on, without even realizing i still only had 50k notes. we get upstairs and i guess i just want to get this over with quickly and just go to sleep asap, as the party favors had me antsy and not wanting to talk ro chill out with her. i suppose even on a sober night, i wouldn't have wanted to spend much time with her anyways. after 5 or so minutes she gets undressed and i wrap myself up looking to stick it in quickly and get this over with. she starts playing stupid by saying no not yet. ends up she was trying to stall out the hour. she keeps doing this bullshit till eventually she starts just giving me head, which was ok and i started ff'ing her. we do that for another 5 or so minutes without me releasing. i figure let me just stick it in and move on. finally get to the point of sticking it in and bang her for like 5 minutes or so. eventually after releasing and relaxing for a few. i figure lets do it again so i could let her go and get some sleep. at this point i go to get another condom and now she starts asking about more money and then even says the hour is up, which it is but mostly due to her bullshit of stalling and not letting me stick it in from the get go. after some arguing, i tell her to just get the fuck out. i told her she has my 40k and that she can leave. she remains motionless on the bed. f'and great. i tell her i'm not paying her anything and that she was stalling the entire time. she eventually says that a bj + a fuck is extra money so i have to giver her not only the extra 20k originally agreed on but 30 k more. i'm incredulous at this point and just begging and pleading for her to just leave me alone and go. i kept on motioning with my finger to just leave. she still remains motionless on the bed. it's approaching like 6 am at this point and i just want to sleep. bad times all around. i eventually get her to get dressed and to at least sit on the coach area. she keeps demanding more money and i agree that if she leaves i'll just pay her the 20k originally agreed upon and we'll both walk out together. she keeps telling me that she won't go outside because she's fearful that i will just throw her out and lock the door, which is ludicrous. this girl was straight psychotic. i think what she planned to do was have me leave the apartment first and then wait for her, but she planned to lock me out of my apartment and steal some of my shit inside. i eventually, mostly due to aggravation, just tossed a 50k note outside of my apartment door, with my foot keeping it ajar. hoping she would just go after the money and i can close the door and get some sleep. she happily did so. worst experience ever and i was still feeling tweaked out from the party favors. i could've played ctg much better. hindsight is 20/20 but the last couple of nights were hell, especially the last. i've learned a quality lesson in life i suppose. don't pick up anything at 4 am without doing due diligence on what kind of personality the woman has, as well as staying with what is comfortable. in all honesty, looking back at it now, if i had spent all 5 nights with the girl form the first night things would've been excellent. i suppose its the problem we all have as men in that we always look for the next conquest hoping it will be better than what we already have in front of us. i think another learning experience is that the grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence. if you make good relations with someone in a foreign country, you should stick by them for their advice and connections. thinking i could do better on my own turned out to be a true nightmare. so much fail the last 2 nights. you live and you learn i suppose, but i would rather have those last 2 nights back to have something more enjoyable to remember.
not the most flattering report, but i don't embellish things and only speak truth. if people can learn from my mistakes then i guess the better. wish i hadn't had to experience this myself. at least, i did get two quaiity nights of action during my stay, so all was not lost.

Police shakedowns

Why was your taxi stopped in the first place? I would imagine something suspicious was occurring to make them do this, surely.

Why was your taxi stopped in the first place? I would imagine something suspicious was occurring to make them do this, surely.[/QUOTE]I suppose I learned of the cops searching gringo's without reasonable cause the hard way. Nothing was suspicious (I procured the night before) and they had the road blocked stopping each car that passed by, similar to a US police sobriety checkpoint, which I naively assumed it was. I assumed the cops would just see if the taxi driver was drunk and if not, let us on our way but in actuality the cops didn't even bother with the driver and straight away asked me to step out of the vehicle. I know when in foreign lands one should be more cautious as US laws don't apply, but I didn't think a search would occur without reasonable cause, ie pulling a foreigner out of their taxi cab, while otherwise doing nothing harmless of the sort.
I may have been acting weird after I was pulled out, as I was already using earlier that night, but still tried to remain calm and cool to give them no reason to suspect I was doing anything wrong, perhaps my eyes severely wide open was a give away to any police working in the country. I suppose they know the deal with foreigners however and a search can always turn up something and allow them to make some money. When I pulled everything out of my pockets, they immediately recognized a plastic coffee spoon I carry on me when using to make bumps easier. They continued searching me after I emptied everything out, although I assumed leaving my stash in my fifth pocket would be undetectable in most cases. The officer searching however must've dealt with this situation often and felt up my fifth pocket. He didn't take whatever was there out, but rubbed it to make sure that I knew that he knew something was there. At that point I knew my game was up. After posturing briefly, I realized these guys wanted money, as it was pretty obvious they didn't make me empty the contents inside of my fifth pocket or any other standard police routine search they do here in the states. In fact it was pretty casual, as can be. They didn't mention any money, but I figured what was up and tried to get through with it without emptying most of the cash I had on hand. Worse part is that they saw the entire amount of cash I had on my person. All in all, the shakedown sucked and I should've been less naive to keep its stashed on me, but the payout could've been much worse (perhaps like $350-400 US total on my person). Being allowed to leave at that point with only 50k ( $25US) out of pocket was a miracle, as I could've paid much much more. As I handed over cash, I feigned as though each note handed over was financially crippling, which it was to a degree psychologically, but in reality it was actually just money won at the casino. Lady luck eventually blessed me with a break-even night I suppose, as I could've easily lost the same amount in the casino itself. I suppose my brief time in the casino was to win enough to pay off the police shakedown later that evening

Anonimous5, That BS must be done by the casino people, I will tell you why; something similar happened to a buddy of mine who was there in CTG back in 2010, to make the long story short, he played at a casino in Bocagrande and won over 1000 dollars (about 2 million pesos) after that, on his way back to his condo in laguito the police had the taxi driver stop, the cops searched my buddy and didn't bother to search taxi driver but couldn't find anything that would allow them to ask for money as a bribe for letting my buddy go clean with no crime, when he walked in his apartment realized the cops had stolen 600. 000 pesos (about 320 USD) out of the money won at the casino, bottom line is it was either the taxi driver that is used to setting up gringos that come out of the casinos or the casino people, who the hell knows, but please beware next time.

Which casino?
The casino that I know. Near where the InterContinenetal is going up is less than 10mins walk to Laguito (for me, at least).
Also, Anonymous- I am sure I know who you describe as "Joe". As I stayed at the hotel across from Isis.
I had no need of his "help" as I was with a chica from Medellin and I am perfectly fluent in spanish. He did get me an AlkaSeltzer late one night when the farmavias were closed. LOL.
He is good people. Why not give his name and / or # of it would help his "business".
Sounds like he was a "straight-shooter" with you- w / me, as well?

I was playing at Rio Casino around 5-30-630 ish. Left and went home with family friends. Took a shower and ate dinner. Pre-gamed in my apartment and left around 11ish and the cab driver recommended Pleyclub, since I was new in town and wanted to try a different scene I said ok. After being disappointed with pleyclub pricing and it being the only thing going around in the area, I decided it was time to leave. If they made a correlation with me winning at the casino, they put an awful lot of work into it, as the events were likely 5-6 hours apart, and I did many activities in between. The only likely scenario of a setup I could possibly think of was me using the bathroom at Pleyclub prior to leaving and doing some bumps. It's not completely impossible someone watched me go in to the bathroom or watched / heard my activities inside and while leaving made a phone call in advance for a shakedown. Not really sure, but that would be far fetched as well, but not completely out of the realm of possibility. I suppose there is no sure way to avoid the cops, but one thing I practiced since then was to be around tc / clock tower area or in el laguito / ldv with my stuff. I figure those are the most tourist central locations and although possible for a shakedown, police don't hassle as much from my experience. I suppose it would be bad for tourism business, I imagine, but if you venture away from those areas then you are fair game. Either way, I never truly felt comfortable again on my nights out, as the police had me scared even just passing by while I was sitting in clock tower area outside. Not until the last ngith, when I decided to empty whatever I had left int he toilet did I really just feel free, as if I took a major weight off my shoulders.

Was a very good guy (straight shooter) and I should have relied on him more, rather than thinking I could do things on my own. One mistake I made was getting the party favors on my own after he warned me that most people cut their stuff up with crap. I falsely assumed that he was just hyping his own stuff and would want me to go to him for a sale. I assumed incorrectly that no one would need to cut their stuff up in the land of Colombia. You live and you learn, and I should have trusted Joe. I wouldn't post his real name, or whatever he claimed to be his real name, on here without permission, and due to the fact that we really don't know who's reading along here. Wouldn't want to cause any problems for him back in CTG unknowingly. I will give him a chat though to see if he doesn't mind having his info posted. Once I hear back from him and he gives the ok, I'll gladly share the intel.
BTW, is it ok to post telephone numbers on this site?

Are telephone #'s ok?

[QUOTE=CartaAngel;1398133]Anonimous5, That BS must be done by the casino people, I will tell you why; something similar happened to a buddy of mine who was there in CTG back in 2010, to make the long story short, he played at a casino in Bocagrande and won over 1000 dollars (about 2 million pesos) after that, on his way back to his condo in laguito the police had the taxi driver stop, the cops searched my buddy and didn't bother to search taxi driver but couldn't find anything that would allow them to ask for money as a bribe for letting my buddy go clean with no crime, when he walked in his apartment realized the cops had stolen 600. 000 pesos (about 320 USD) out of the money won at the casino, bottom line is it was either the taxi driver that is used to setting up gringos that come out of the casinos or the casino people, who the hell knows, but please beware next time.[/QUOTE]This does seem coincidental, but it's possible the casino was not involved. The cops used the same M. O. On me several years ago, I. E. Stopped our taxi, had me empty all my pockets, then (unknowingly to me) did not return everything I gave them. By the time I realized it, I had left the scene. When I went back (5 minutes later) of course my complaints fell on deaf ears and they blamed the taxi driver, etc etc.
Maybe that is the lesson to be learned, that if the cops pull you over and search you, and are put in possession of your things, pay VERY close attention to what they do with them and demand a full accounting at the scene.

Is it a good time to viist Cartagena in November?
Hi all,
I finally have an opportunity to visit the beautiful country of Colombia for 3 weeks for the first time as a solo traveler. So, even though my trip won't happen until later this year, I have been doing a lot of research over the internet already. I have nailed down 3 cities which I will definitely want to visit: Bogota, Cali, and Cartagena. Due to varies reasons, my travel date is restricted to the months between September to December. During my research I have come across that Miss Colombia Beauty Contest is held annually in November in the city of Cartagena. With that in mind, is November a good time to visit Cartagena for mongering? Will the mongering scene be too crowded at that time?
Thank you and have a day all.

1st Visit
I have been meaning to write this report for some time, but I am just getting around to it. First let me say this is not a report on the mongering situation in Cartagena, but more of a vacation report. In case someone has a Colombian girl they want to take on a mini vacation. I brought a girl down from Medellin mid-February with me, so I did not par-take in the scene. I do want to thank the people who PM'the me with information.
First I would like to say I found Cartagena, to be a on the same quality vacation spot as Mazatlan, dirty, the beaches and water not very nice. Part of the trip was to see if this was a place to retire to, definitely not. I see this as to be one of the first places that will be ruined by Americans / Canadians who retire in to SA. They will ruin it as retirement place like they have done in Costa Rica and Panama.
As far as being safe place to go, this is the safest place I have ever visited in Colombia. We were down at the wall city late at night, and I saw young American / Canadian women walking around either alone or in small groups. I never felt uneasy walking around anywhere in the city at night.
If you have a Colombian girl that you get along well with, and want a GFE and beach vacation, I do recommend Cartagena. My girl had a great time, did not cost me much. Her ticket from Medellin to Cartagena was a little over $200 on Avianca, put her on bus and it is cheaper. Also forget the hotel and get a nice apartment.
We sat on the beach only one day, after that she preferred the pool area of hotel. To be honest so did I, the vendors on the beach never leave you alone. I was disappointed that we really never found a beach bar at night, where you could sit listen to music and dance and drink. It appeared when the sun went down the beach closed up. However there is much beach area we did not get to. I tried to talk her in going to one of the remote beaches, but she had no interest in getting in a boat.
I had my hopes on going to Club Havana, but the two nights we went down there it was closed. The best kept secret to eat was a place called Costillitas Argentinas, 'Carrera 3 Bocagrande | Cra 3 No 8 96'. Our meal with wine and drinks was $38. 00. Unbelievable there was no one in the place, but we saw meals going out for delivery the whole time we were there. They do have a nice little patio; we sat out on and finished our drinks and people watched. It is far enough off the beach really did not have the nightly sea breeze so very comfortable to sit outside. All and all everywhere we ate was reasonable and very good.
Some of the stuff we did, we went to the walled city. We first took a carriage tour, I can not remember how much it was, I am thinking less the $30 for 45 minutes. The girl loved it. Later we walked around found a little park area and had a drink. There were many little restaurants throughout the area, that looked great. We did sit outside of the Hardrock one evening and watched the mime work the crowd, and people watched, why we had some drinks. Outside the wall city away from the beach side, we walked out across a little park and started walking the streets. There was a street with a section of hostels on it. This area was full of young kids, and a few small street bars, we stopped and had a drink in one of the bars. The story I got from one of the kids is a lot college age kids fly in here and stay then go hiking Colombia. We went to the fortress for the tour there, it was nice having someone there who knew the history, she explained a lot about the history to me. A little side note that I have found during my travels, is all Colombians are very proud of their country and history. We went shopping for silver and emeralds; you can find shops throughout the city. We stayed at Hotel Dann Cartagena (I should have listen to my friends and got an apartment, do not recommend this hotel. It was very nice except 2 things 1. No ice machines and 2. The showers suck.) , there is a little mall across the street, that I saw the cruise ship buses dropping people off to shop for Emeralds and Silver. We also did the city bus tour, it was worth it, you can hop on an off. I recommend this the first day, you can get a feel of city and where you want to return to. I also saw a party bus tour my last day, I wish I seen it before it look like people were having fun. Here are a couple of web sites that I used why I was there.

All in all I may return with a girl again for vacation or may try Santa Marta next time. I hope this helps some.

Late report, and even short
I must confess I've become lazy. I delayed writing this report so long. Maybe it's better: I will be short omitting unnecessary details.
I was in CTG from 28 Feb to 3 March. This is what happened this time.
FIRST NIGHT
Bored, misplaced, I could not find any girl I liked. Memories of the incredible girls I met last time were always on my mind, ruining all the new feelings.
To be objective, I think there were LESS girls around than on my previous stay, and MORE tourist men at hunt. A non-positive mix for me.
Visited Tu Candela, some other disco, Elektra. I ended up with a 38yo (! I am usually looking for the youngest ones) girl who self-declared an expert masajista (Ana Maria). She is a good girl indeed. I was happy to meet her, but I would not repeat.
SECOND DAY
Straight to my preferred lady who runs some business at her house at Alcibia. Her son promised me a teen, but he contacted a 24yo. Never mind. She was a sweetie indeed, not a pro, a regular girl from family, and costed me 100k (+30k to the house).
SECOND NIGHT AND NEXT DAYS
I meet Her. Tall, sexy, angry out of TuCandela. Her first words: "Yo covro 150k por hora". Not a nice introduction.
What happened next? All different. Drinks, good feeling, lots of GFE.
I was with her ALL my time till I left. 2 nights, one day at the beach.
Sat night I invited her out like a novia and we had a wonderful time at Mister Babilla. She told me "I don't want to ask you money like when I work. I just need 100k to pay my rental with my friends". That was so elegant from her! On a Sat night, a girl like her can earn up to 500k! She gave up to that to stay with me. It means something, from a prepago.
I am in love.

Thank you and have a day all.[/QUOTE]November is a fine time to visit. I went in November and had fun. CTG is a tourist destination. That means major events attract both men and the working girls. The ratio is certainly maintained and in my opinion, quality goes up. I would rather go then, than go when it is dead and expect less competition. As a general rule, a monger who is not cheap (I don't mean throw money or be a show off) , and willing to pay a fair price has very little completion for prepagos. Statistically, most men are there to look and hang out. Very few actually take the bite.
-
Vitrea: thank you for your informative info. I totally agree you that in general there are more men who do not participate then the ones who do on any given night. In my experience, this is especially true in a lot of the low-end establishments frequented by the locals. In those places, the local men are usually there to relax and hang out. Most of the time I am the only gringo around pulling the women. Typically I prefer to travel in the off season when there is less of a crowd. But I guess since Cartagena is a tourist town in of itself, it will always be crowded with tourists.

Is it illegal?
[QUOTE=Anonymous5; 1397939]I suppose I learned of the cops searching gringo's without reasonable cause the hard way.
I may have been acting weird after I was pulled out, as I was already using earlier that night, but still tried to remain calm and cool to give them no reason to suspect I was doing anything wrong, perhaps my eyes severely wide open was a give away to any police working in the country. They immediately recognized a plastic coffee spoon I carry on me when using to make bumps easier. The officer searching however must've dealt with this situation often and felt up my fifth pocket. He didn't take whatever was there out, but rubbed it to make sure that I knew that he knew something was there. After posturing briefly, I realized these guys wanted money, as it was pretty obvious they didn't make me empty the contents inside of my fifth pocket or any other standard police routine search they do here in the states. In fact it was pretty casual, as can be.[/QUOTE]According to research, Colombia has decriminalized cocaine and marijuana, saying that people cannot be jailed for possessing the drugs for personal use. Anyone caught with less 20 grams of marijuana or one gram of cocaine for personal use will not be prosecuted or detained, but could be required to receive treatment, depending on their level of intoxication.

Colombia is also thinking about making synthetic drugs such as extacy legal, interesting.

All that happended to you wasn't that unusual
thanks for the thorough and honest report. i can empathisize with your 5th night girl / situation. i've been in similar spots. you did the right thing by just getting her out. believe me, some of the lower class putas can do crazy things to get their 20-30 mil.
i do want to defend the colombian police. they actually did you a huge favor. if they take you in and charge you (like in the us) , you would be in a lot more trouble. believe me. 50 mil (25 uds) is a very cheap way to get out of the situation. to me, a shakedown is what goes on in mexico. they pull you over, find nothing wrong, invent something, and make you pay $100 or more usd.
as far as paying for the girl getting drinks, it is assumed, even in us strip clubs, if you are drinking with a girl that you are paying for their drinks. you can't let stuff like that ruin your night. look at all the money you paid to fly there and stay in a hotel. spending an extra $20 on someone's drinks is not worth stressing about. i just assume that i'm going to waste $20-$50 per night on stuff like that when i'm partying in a foreign place. it's the cost of not knowing or not worrying about the details.
i'm sure the jet ski guy did screw with the time, but if you negotiate a really low price, you can expect stuff like that to happen.
when americans first go down to colombian, i see a tendancy to want us customer service and rights, but pay colombian prices. it doesn't work that way. you generally pay less in colombia and have to live with the lose of certain rights and customer service.
[quote=anonymous5; 1397510]4th night. this night i wanted to try something different and knew of the club in el laguito, which i actually walked into not knowing what it was called while coming home the first night attempting to go to horus casino. i was still somewhat awake from my adventures on night #1 and didn't want to stay awake alone on the couch at a guest's place. when i walked into ldv on night #1 i expected to see casino tables but saw it was dark inside and only had a bar to it. wasn't looking for more action on night 1, so i just ended up asking a bouncer where the casino was. lol, it appears i walked right past it. i ended up drinking a beer at horus and leaving shortly thereafter on night 1, not realizing that the place i originally walked into was ldv. well on night 4, i ended up going back to ldv, not realizing it was ldv, because i wanted to pregame at a local place before heading on to other things. i ended up chatting with a few girls, some very hot, and even got quoted for a decent rate for one hour of action. may have been in the 100k range. i'm not the kind of guy who likes to get his action that early in the night 12am, and enjoy drinking and partying with a crowd till the night gets stale. then at that point, later in the night, i'm up for some action. still not realizing it was ldv, i casually asked one of the girls i chatted with what the name of the place was, which she replied la dolce vida. i was like ahhh, i've been sort of kind of looking for this place and even walked in here at one point, but now i realize i'm actually here. mind blown. i suppose the smart thing to do here was keep friendly conversations going with the women and take down some phone numbers. wish i had that foresight at the time as there were definitely some lookers in the place. before i knew it, i think i went out for a smoke or something and when i returned it was getting close to empty. i suppose this is yet another mistake i made. i figured keeping a girl around at ldv would require me to keep ordering drinks or close the deal and agree to leave with them. the partying for 3 nights in a row i suppose took its toll and i wasn't being as friendly as i could possibly be. i still should have made an attempt to find out where the girls were headed or secure some numbers, at the very least, for some quick day action or maybe a late night call, even if i didn't want to buy them drinks at ldv. i recall reading these forums and you guys mentioning that the girls leave ldv and go to another place, and then proceeded to ask the taxicab about club elektra. the taxi driver said it was closed and replied europa was still an option. i had the taxi take me over to europa and it was dead outside and inside. not sure if the place would liven up shortly but i wasn't in the mood to wait around, so i ended up going back to the clock tower area. i may have chilled outside scoping the action and drank a few drinks hoping that i would run into joe around there, or secure some nice piece by myself. my mistake, again, was never making the effort to get a sim card i could plug into my phone. i perhaps could have relied on payphones when i need it, but i suppose i got lazy. anyways, not much going on by the clock tower, never met joe, and it was approaching 4 am. i decided to just grab the best looking broad still around and try to negotiate a fair price. i got a decent looking girl to agree for 80k for an hour. i agreed and we hopped in a taxi and headed back to my apartment. when we got back, she asked me to make a her a drink, which i did. i pulled out some party favors to get me ready for the action and she asked for some too. after giving her some of the stuff, she then proceeded to ask me to pay in advance for our session. luckily she spoke english well enough, so i understood what she was saying. i told her that i would pay her after. she said if she didn't get paid in advance that she would leave. i said ok, and she astonishingly got up off the couch and walked out. i wasn't going to pay her in advance to only have her create issues later on, plus she wasn't super attractive to the point of paying in advance and making concessions to. you do your services and then get paid. still kind of shocked she took the trouble of getting up from the clock tower area, agreeing on a price, getting comfortable with a drink and some party favors, and then deciding to leave with nothing in hand to show for it. mind boggling. like i said, the nights got progressively worse, but the worst was yet to come.
night 5. i spent the day at the hilton with my family friends, and that's also the day i ran into the jetski scammers. still had fun on the jetski's but i did feel a little robbed that i'd didn't get the fulltime that suppose to be allocated. one of the reasons i couldn't really have day action in el laguito is because my family friends stayed on the same street and i didn't want word to get around of my activities. i tried to play it cool during the day, even as good lookers were propositioning me on the walk in el laguito. another mistake i suppose i made was not going overt o playa hollywood on my stay in ctg. it was a little away from main streets i imagine and i could've partook in some conversations and what not there. anyways, after dinner with my family friends at riquismo's, i headed back to the apartment for some light pregaming and planned to head over to ldv shortly thereafter. i ended up getting to ldv a little early, around 11:30ish. i chatted up a few girls inside, but one of them was asking for like 300k tln. way out of my range at this point, and she wasn't hot enough to justify that price. i did run out fo party favors and did inquire with the girls i was chatting with if they could assist me. they were being stand offish and said they could help me get some if we went for some action back at my place. i'm not a regular user, but the party favors would give me a little wake me up after 4 days of hard partying at that point, so i was really keen on getting some to feel better. the girls were not being helpful and it was getting close to 1am at this point. i didn't want to be up all night from the party favors, as i was leaving el laguito area around 12ish and had to be up by 11am the latest, luckily i packed the night before however. i decided i couldn't wait around for the girls to help me out, so i just jumped in a taxi and see if i could get some from him or by tc, hopefully running into joe at some point. the taxi i got into actually had some on his person and i just ended up getting it from him. in retrospect, i should've just went back to ldv at that point and kept drinking and eventually picked out a girl to leave with. i believe i ended up just asking the driver about elektra and he said it was closed, fml. i told him to take me over to club isis. the driver was keen on leaving me at isis and said i could go use the bathroom inside of there. for some reason i agreed. i ended up getting a drink at isis and used the bathroom to loosen up a little. after 20-30 minutes however i was out of the place and left. i proceeded to go over to the clock tower area and just hung around for a few minutes seeing if anything was going on outside. eventually it was the same crap but it did appear tu candela's had something going on. i decided to venture in hoping to see some good action. ended up being completely filled and there were not many girls still left around. i still stayed and had a few drinks hoping something would come along but it never did. i still did not want to walk the streets carrying around my party supplies so i ended up going to the bathroom a final time and did a decent amount and threw over half of the full amount down the drain. in all honesty, it was the most free i felt in ctg after a while. i knew the cops no longer could shake me down and i felt like i lifted the weight off of my shoulders. what i didn't realize at the time however, was that the stuff that i got from the taxi was probably cut with a lot of speed, i imagine. i'm not an expert but this stuff had me feeling very jittery all night and i was not feeling relaxed and cool. later on i noticed my eyes were severely dilated and i felt like i was tweaked out. i've never tweaked before, but that's how i believe it would feel. there's a small chance it was some super pure stuff that makes you feel like that, but i doubt it. from my use in the states i've gotten a pretty decent handle of what i should feel like. there's been times in the us where i've gotten below par party favors, but also plenty of time i got some really good stuff. this stuff from the taxi wasn't on the scale of really good stuff. i should've just contacted joe, yet again, as he even advised me that most of the stuff these guys will have is cut up with some stuff, and that he had a good connect himself. i naively assumed the stuff would be so plentiful in ctg that there would be no reason to adulterate the stuff as it would be everywhere for low prices. i should have just trusted joe with everything from girl acquisitions to part favor procurement. once again, a phone would've, made things easier, but i probably felt i would be fine getting the things myself. sometimes you have to touch the stove with your hands yourself, even if many people warned you that its really hot. i should have just trusted the advice from joe and had him get me the better quality, unadulterated stuff, because this stuff made me feel like crap. anyways, at this time 4am nothing much going outside of tu candela's so i decided to get into a taxi to see if i could find another place to scoop a girl for a final night in ctg. nothing was really going on at this hour, so i just told the taxi to be on the lookout for anything walking on the way to el laguito. we ended up catching a broad who was walking outside of ldv on the steps and decided to inquire. i wish i had not. she was at best a 4, even with beer goggles. she agreed to 60k for an hour, and i guess i just wanted some quick action before heading out of town. we get back to my apartment area and the taxi wanted 10k for his troubles, which i really didn't feel like arguing 3k over so i said ok, but the problem was i only had 50k notes at this point. the girl gave the driver 10k and held on to my 50, with me assuming i would pay her 20k later on, without even realizing i still only had 50k notes. we get upstairs and i guess i just want to get this over with quickly and just go to sleep asap, as the party favors had me antsy and not wanting to talk ro chill out with her. i suppose even on a sober night, i wouldn't have wanted to spend much time with her anyways. after 5 or so minutes she gets undressed and i wrap myself up looking to stick it in quickly and get this over with. she starts playing stupid by saying no not yet. ends up she was trying to stall out the hour. she keeps doing this bullshit till eventually she starts just giving me head, which was ok and i started ff'ing her. we do that for another 5 or so minutes without me releasing. i figure let me just stick it in and move on. finally get to the point of sticking it in and bang her for like 5 minutes or so. eventually after releasing and relaxing for a few. i figure lets do it again so i could let her go and get some sleep. at this point i go to get another condom and now she starts asking about more money and then even says the hour is up, which it is but mostly due to her bullshit of stalling and not letting me stick it in from the get go. after some arguing, i tell her to just get the fuck out. i told her she has my 40k and that she can leave. she remains motionless on the bed. f'and great. i tell her i'm not paying her anything and that she was stalling the entire time. she eventually says that a bj + a fuck is extra money so i have to giver her not only the extra 20k originally agreed on but 30 k more. i'm incredulous at this point and just begging and pleading for her to just leave me alone and go. i kept on motioning with my finger to just leave. she still remains motionless on the bed. it's approaching like 6 am at this point and i just want to sleep. bad times all around. i eventually get her to get dressed and to at least sit on the coach area. she keeps demanding more money and i agree that if she leaves i'll just pay her the 20k originally agreed upon and we'll both walk out together. she keeps telling me that she won't go outside because she's fearful that i will just throw her out and lock the door, which is ludicrous. this girl was straight psychotic. i think what she planned to do was have me leave the apartment first and then wait for her, but she planned to lock me out of my apartment and steal some of my shit inside. i eventually, mostly due to aggravation, just tossed a 50k note outside of my apartment door, with my foot keeping it ajar. hoping she would just go after the money and i can close the door and get some sleep. she happily did so. worst experience ever and i was still feeling tweaked out from the party favors. i could've played ctg much better. hindsight is 20/20 but the last couple of nights were hell, especially the last. i've learned a quality lesson in life i suppose. don't pick up anything at 4 am without doing due diligence on what kind of personality the woman has, as well as staying with what is comfortable. in all honesty, looking back at it now, if i had spent all 5 nights with the girl form the first night things would've been excellent. i suppose its the problem we all have as men in that we always look for the next conquest hoping it will be better than what we already have in front of us. i think another learning experience is that the grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence. if you make good relations with someone in a foreign country, you should stick by them for their advice and connections. thinking i could do better on my own turned out to be a true nightmare. so much fail the last 2 nights. you live and you learn i suppose, but i would rather have those last 2 nights back to have something more enjoyable to remember.
not the most flattering report, but i don't embellish things and only speak truth. if people can learn from my mistakes then i guess the better. wish i hadn't had to experience this myself. at least, i did get two quaiity nights of action during my stay, so all was not lost.[/quote]

La dolce vita
WAAAAAAAY too expensive for those street-walking sluts, wannabe models. A fair price is 80k. If they want more, they have no idea of the real prices in Colombia.
A better option is Donde Rosia. A taxi will take you there for 7 USD.

You generally pay less in Colombia and have to live with the lose of certain rights and customer service.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the reply and reading through my experience. My main issue with the police is not that they asked me for money, but rather that they stopped the taxi and had me alone get out. My assumption was that if you do nothing wrong, remain honest and decent then the police should not harass you. If I had been caught in either a transaction, being disruptively drunk / obnoxious, or using the substances in the act then I would have no one to blame but myself. My main issue was with the completely random search of a foreigner in a taxi, otherwise doing nothing harmless.
I understand now that's how it works in the Colombia and that I shouldn't have been as naive initially, but it did play with my mind for the rest of my trip. I was always weary of police and made sure to never leave el laguito or el centro while having any substances on my possession. All in all, after the stop and the discovery getting off for 50k was a god send. I suppose my feigning / acting that each bill coughed up was earth shattering also helped me off, as I can imagine someone else less clever would probably start by handing over like 50k initially, and the cops would then extract more. I suppose it could've been much worse, but I knew what the cops wanted. I perhaps drew a tiny amount of sympathy from them from my acting and they allowed me to leave without further damage. I think I even thanked them after the shakedown just so there would be no further problems of them calling their friends up the block for shakedown #2. I'm not familiar with Mexico, but my god the US has its problems but at least, for the most part, as long as you're not doing anything wrong the cops can't legally detain or search you without reasonable cause or provocation. The USA def has its problem both domestic and international policies, but at least there are laws on the books that help safeguard citizens rights to live peacefully.

[QUOTE=MrCampo; 1400060]WAAAAAAAY too expensive for those street-walking sluts, wannabe models. A fair price is 80k. If they want more, they have no idea of the real prices in Colombia.
A better option is Donde Rosia. A taxi will take you there for 7 USD.[/QUOTE]They do that because LDV is in El Laguito and is the only place such as that in el lagutio. It's tourist central and form my understanding el lagutio has the highest property value per sq meter in all of Cartagena. That's also where the Hilton is located at, so they know foreigners will be in town with money to spend. They expect some foreign chumps to stroll in and pay those insane prices to get some Colombian action, and the tourists are flocking ever since the Secret service scandal hit the news. I did get quoted at some decent rates at LDV and from my experience it will usually be the bitches from Medellin that will ask 300k and up for services initially. When I say bitches though, I'm not referring to all girls in generals but actually obnoxious rude bitches. There are some nicer girls in there who will talk to you and will likely quote you a better starting price to which you can negotiate with. The key I believe is filtering out the bitches and finding the nicer girls. Problem is the bitches know that some tourist schmuck will venture in all drunk one night and equate higher price with higher quality and service. Thus all girls will start a very high rate just hoping some tourist will take the bait. I suppose if I was in that profession, not that I plan to enter, I'd try the same thing. The tourist douche will have money to spend and will assume that spending more will result in better quality performance, similar to other ventures and purchases in life where some people falsely assume that more money automatically equals better product or service. While paying more at times does entitled better product or services in most cases, this is not always the case.
BTW, where is the donde rosia place you speak of?

Elektra?
I read again that "Elektra is closed". Is it true? Or just a misunderstanding? Anyone in CTG now may check and tell? Thanks.
I am going to CTG this Sunday. I would be horrified to know that my favorite haven is closed!

When I was in Costa rica a few years ago, I met a colombian chick who was quoting way more than all the nica and costa rican girls. She was hot but of course I did not cave in. Later that night I was able to pick up a cute costa rican girl for half the price LOL. Seems like Cartagena is nothing but a tourist trip destination. I may have to reconsider my plans and visit Medellin instead.

What to bring for las nenas
$$ of course. But when mongering in Rio de Janeiro the gals went NUTs for Victoria Secrets Body Creams. Worth its weight in plata, in the right situiation. Are their similar popular sundries to bring to Cartagena? Thanks in advance for 411,
Going to Caragena, santa marta in 2 months.

[QUOTE=Hioctane;1401117]Not sure if he means Casa Rosario. Which is a dump![/QUOTE]I did get a club / bar card from some fly looking chica when I was hanging around the clock tower area with Joe. The place is called El Paraiso del Marino club, supposedly a new place according to the card, and has a psicina / Bilar / Discoteca / restaurante, which I didn't know at the times translates to pool / billiards, disco / club, and restaurant. I should've have gone to check the place out, as the girl herself was super hot and I really like playing billiard / ppol. Perhaps it was lively inside as well. Worth giving a shot if Elektra is closed as this place says it is open 24 hours, according to the business card I was given. It doesn't seem to far from old city, but I was already scared of leaving that region after the shakedown. Its address is Nuevo Campestre 10 no 56B. Worth checking out if your in town I suppose. Let me know how the place is if any of you do make it out there, as I didn't get a chance to visit myself.

Which sucks as Elektra was my fav bar also. Also had to pay to get in. 10k. Girls there mostly were from LDV, outside from tu candela etc.
Also it is kinda a makeshift bar, all outside area, think patio area in Elektra. Watch your bill also, evertime I paid for a drink they "forgot" my change.

I can confirm that Elektra is closed and 'replaced' by Elektracita. It's smaller and quieter. It's not owned by Aldo, who I'm told 'didn't pay the electricity' on Elektra (which I doubt) and is 'always in the casino' as someone else mentioned.
Anonymous5: thank you for your honest and comprehensive reports. You're right to be nervous about carrying party gifts around Cartagena. I'm stopped probably 1 in 10 journeys. I always put them down the back of the taxi seat in case I'm taken by surprise with a stop. So far down the back that I've sometimes lost it! But I'd prefer that than being caught with something. You're right that Cartagena is full of sharks. However, it's much much worse if you speak zero Spanish. I speak enough, and with a decent accent, so I get by. I probably also have mentally accepted that I will generally overpay, so I don't get stressed. I still challenge and haggle a lot and make sure they don't take me for a fool, but only up to a point.
Tu Candela is a lot of fun, but it's best to bring someone there.
The Marina place, if I remember correctly, isn't new. I think (I could be wrong) I've been there and it was about 15 minutes ride from Centro, but was suprisingly large, plush and new. About 15 girls, and some hotties, but zero customers. I could be wrong about this place but I don't think so.
Night 4: pretty amazing that she got up and left. Never heard of that before. Maybe you have one of those faces.
Overall, yep you had some bad luck. But the second time can only get better! Go again, be prepared to lose $50k now and then, go to Playa Hollywood, Mr Babilla, Cafe del Mer, LDV and Elektracita. Relax and enjoy!

A.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the reporting on Elektra, I can stop feeling as though I was misled that it was not closed. Also, thanks for reading through my report. I'm from a culture where bargaining is a way of life. People of my culture look down upon you if you don't even give a modicum of effort to negotiate the best deal, so it's inbred in me and I have no choice but to try to get the best deal. If I'm ever back in CTG, I'll def take your advice in regards to the party gifts, although I may form a new strategy to be a bit moderate or just take some losses, ie dispose of everything before leaving a place. You can always score later on, and if I'm in a place for 2-3 hours, it gives me decent amount of time to do some and dump the rest. The girl from the 1st night, even recommended I do that as I was leaving the motel with her. Even if I'm going through 2 purchases a night, it still is less expensive for what I might be purchasing at home for a single. I can always stash some back at my place, and if I find a girl early on, we can always head back to my place for some re-up. At least with this strategy, I won't have to constantly have on my possession.
As for the girl who left on the 4th night, I didn't explain the entire story. There was a small wrinkle I didn't mention. While in the cab ride back to El Laguito, I noticed she got really close to me quickly after 2-3 minutes in the cab. I had a similar experience in South Africa with a girl in a taxi. I was more naive at the time, and the girl in SA ended up pick pocketing me without me having the slightest of clue. When I got to my hotel, I noticed the money missing and the girl paid for the encounter. At that point, I new I had been pickpocketed and lost a little more than our encounter, but couldn't do anything about it. It did make me aware of how well a pickpocket could operate and taught me a lesson to not be so naive. In CTG, in the taxi, the girl got close to me and my first reaction was to protect my pockets. I guess my intuition and instincts just played their part without me even having to think about it. I dress well, am decent a looking guy, and am fairly young looking. I don't believe my appearance would give her reason to believe I was a bad person or that I wouldn't pay the agreed on price. The fact that she even asked for prepayment prior to action also leads me to believe that she targets victims who she can either pickpocket, or she robs them once they give her prepayment. Maybe that's her game. It's speculation on my part, but that's what my instinct lead me to believe. Somehow, I have a good feeling about people's motives, just as I did about he jetski guys, and why I made it a point to check the time from 3 different people upon boarding the jetski and 2-3 different people after getting off. I'm usually good with getting a feel for people's motives, although I failed miserable with girl on night #5 of my stay. That was perhaps because I tried to rush the transaction and didn't get a feel for what kind of personality and motives that girl had. All in all, I believe that girl who left the apt because of prepayment not being agreed upon has some ulterior motive.
Either way, thanks for reading my reports, and if I do go back I will check out the places you mentioned, and hopefully Elektra will be reopened by then. I'm already looking at travel deals from Spirit air.

Anonymous5: Great reports. Thank you for your contributions.
This week and hopefully the week after, the talent pool in CTG hopefully would go up a bit. My friend and 4 of her friends that work at La Isla in MDE flew down to CTG last night. They plan to stay for a week or two and work the beach :-D.

Where To Go Next?
I am a senior member who began mongering in South East Asia in 2003. What an adventure that 1st trip was!
I am planning a trip later this spring, with a buddy, to either the Dominican Republic or Columbia (Cartagena & Medellin).
For about four months now I have been reading the forums and still have not made up my mind on the best choice. Tho I am leaning towards Columbia. I am thinking those who may have been in SEA and the DR & Columbia can steer me in the right direction.
I am 58, American, no Spanish ability (tho I am taking an adult 'Ed course on conversational Spanish). I am most familiar with the monger scene in the Philippines (read GFE) and have had great success there. I loved going to the LA Café in Manila and picking up the girls one or 2 at a time. Ha ha ha.
I generally get 2. 3 girls over the course of the evening. The most I had was 5 in one night in Angeles City (1-2-2). For instance, it sounds like at Blackbeards in the DR, that they roll up the streets by midnight when I am just getting started. I am friendly, cheerful and easy going and seldom get rejected. I search more for "chemistry" than looks. I watch my money, but don't pinch it either, generally staying with market rates.
If I went to Columbia, I would probably use Fabio in Cartagena and stay at the Mansion in Medellin.
I am a former band member so I do like to party (cola) and that is one thing Columbia offers that the others do not tho I am years out of practice now anyway.
I will continue to read, but experienced advice is welcome at this point.
Thanks, Bob

Casa Benjamin and Casa Golan
I do not think Casa Benjamin and Casa Golan were ever even mentioned here, but I do think it's worth to let you know.
Casa Benjamin is a house at Laguito, sea side, almost in front of the police post, after the last calle to the sea (where's Dona Marciana). You see "BENJAMIN" written in large letters on the front.
There is an anonymous door, always closed. To open, people must ring the bell. It's kind of hotel, where patrons are only guys from Israel. I've seen some of them, young and fit. I guess that they must come from the army or something. (All Israelitis come from Army, but they look definitely in service to me).
So what's the point to mention this place in ISG?
Now that Elektra is closed, many girls like to go there at night. It's not open to men, that is hobby players like us. Only to girls, to the sole benefit of hotel guests. Do they pay well? Apparently not, but this place is famous among CTG working girls because of the widest choice of drugs freely circulating there, including the worst: cripa, coca, synthetic, mixes of coca and other things to smoke, etc etc.
A girl told me that some girls even fuck for free there at early morning, just because of the hype.
I did not see Casa Golan, but I heard it's the same kind of place: open to tourists from Isreal, famous for sex&drugs parties every night.
I saw the place from the sea, passing by on a boat. It looks anonymous. Two girls were sitting on the terrace. It reminded me a place like the Mansion in MDE, with girls and guests freely meeting, if it was not for the drugs (no drugs at Mansion).
This place makes me feel bad and nervous. Only girls allowed to enter the door, which is permanently and discretely closed. How could it be tolerated by the authorities? Everyone knows the amount of drugs that are sold and consumed there every night, but they must have some good friend located high.

another source: a hooker on the beach that had been married to an israeli and spoke hebrew. first she said she was staying in a "hostel" but as there aren't many in el laguito, if any, i asked the name and on hearing it i became curious; again this benjamin. according to her only israeli guys and girls from colombia and argentina are allowed in. why argentina? jewish girls from its large jewish community? i wouldn't know. 30 000 cop a night or something, so it's relative cheap for el laguito (two-story beds). and more girls come by only to do drugs and let the guests fuck them for free,"because they just don't care".
we remember the late noah goldberg who they say advertised his business very openly and that way became too easy for his enemies to track down. the israelis can advertise and give detailed information on internet as much as they want. as long it is written in hebrew, they will be safe because no colombian punk will understand it.
all in all, very innovative business idea, i must say.

Hi,
I am staying in Cartagena until Friday and then leave for Bogota. To my great disappointment. So far I didn't encounter any chicas malas, neither on the beach nor in the more popular places like cafe del mar or that mister bar.
Any numbers from wingmen are of course greatly welcome. If I don't succeed tonight I will just go for this website [url]www.scortlatin.com[/url], quite pricey but looks serious (if anybody has experiences there please let me know). BTW I am staying in the Atlantic Lux hotel which has an awful guest policy, they charge you 80 K Pesos. Is that normal in Colombia?
Thanks a lot!

the bad thing is that this place is like extra-territory. in 3 days in ctg, i've been stopped and checked for drugs 2 times by the police at night (+ 1 more time in mde). thumbs up to the police from me for that, because i like the place i attend is clean, and i am happy when police does its job. so, why casa benjamin is allowed to be a notorious place where worst drugs circulate freely every night? everyone knows that in ctg, but the police does not enter. i am curious to see what would happen, if one night 10 policemen enter at 4am to check thoroughly the place and all patrons.

Semana Santa? Not a good timing
The truth is that all "normal" working girls are now back home, to their home towns, to visit parents and sons, if they have.
I'm now back home after 3 days in CTG. I've been so disappointed in these days:
- Elektra is closed. Elektrica (with accent on the "I") is nothing compared to our old good Elektra. WHERE ARE YOU, ALDO?
- The choice of girls is poor, never been so poor in all my visits to CTG. Few ones, and not so sexy and cumplacentes as I always enjoyed.
It was not my choice to choose these days, but next time, if any, I will do whatever possible to move my visit to some other week.
PS: the name of the place is [i]ELEKTRI'KA[/i], with accent on the "i", not Elektracita or whatever other funny name I read here before.

On the other hand it's relieving to hear that because all this week cab drivers have kept telling me Medellin will be half empty and Fase II, Luna Lunera etc. Closed on Thursday-Friday. And all this week I've been blaming myself for not booking the flights and a flat in CTG.

Jail, fine, extorted. The colombian police exist to protect and to serve their own interest, so any of the aforementioned is no big surprise, it's a third world country. But that doesn't mean he had done anything illegal. Especially as it was 'minus the drugs', I don't really see the problem.
The Israelis are running happily their business and don't seem to be scared off by the crooked cops.
And I don't think the American customs and immigration people jail any asses in Colombia.

Was I ripped off?
Hi,
My wingman and I arrived in Cartagena yesterday, after a week in Medellin. Last night, we visited PleyClub, then LDV. Both of them were crowded. I picked up Francesca (?) at PleyClub and I liked her quite a bit. She was a cute spinner, with a lovely smile, eager to please, just a joy to be with. Later at LDV, I picked up Cardina, from Baranquilla. She was a lot of fun at the club, but back in my hotel room, she was all business. However, she was really good in the sack, and that was well worth the price of admission. Unfortunately, Francesca had a cold and told me about it up front, but I could not resist DFK. OTOH, Cardina decided to spend the night in my hotel room, and by early morning, she was running a fever. I shared with her some of the fever medication that I carry with me when I travel. Knock on wood, I don't show any signs yet of either cold or the flu.
I paid 200k pesos at PleyClub for 30 min, as for Cardina, when I asked how much she wanted, she never responded. This morning, she seemed pleased with what I gave her.
Now, to my rippoff question. We took a taxi from Bocagrande and asked the driver to take us to Linda Chica. He said he knew where it iwas, and quoted us 15k. However, when we arrived at the place, the sign said PleyClub, hummm? I assumed that maybe there was a name change. Then, once inside, I asked the bartender how much it would be for a 30 min session, he replied 250, which seemed a bit high. Later, when I asked Francesca the same question, she said 200 and that's what I paid. Does this imply that we can negotiate the rate at these places? Or was the extra 50k a cut for the taxi driver? I also asked Francesca whether PlayClub and Linda Chica are one ad the same? She said no.
Even though I was pleased with my session at PlayClub, I was not pleased with that experience. Any hint on how to avoid that next time. Thanks a lot!

It is pretty obvious that the taxi driver was trying to rip you off, he didn't take you to chicas lindas because he was getting no kick back for the things you were buying there, use the map that people have used from this forum or get a good tour guide, BTW tell me more about your wingman from Medellin I have friends going there soon

More on CTG mongering
after our experience that first night, we were prepared this time. same routine, but this time, the driver took us to chica linda. there were also a few other strip clubs next to it, such as bar cacique, and a few others.
the facilities did not look as nice as in pleyclub, but the line up was just as good. it was not too difficult to find some cuties. i ended picking evelyn from medellin, and my wingman picked up another chick from medellin. they quoted us 90k pesos, much better deal than at pleyclub. my girl was a lot of fun, with plenty of dfk. she was eager to please. i noticed that bbbj is not the norm here but i did not care much for it. unless a girl is good at it, i am usually not interested in bbbj. some girls gave me cbj without me asking, but i could not careless about that either. however, i had to promise a good tip before girls would agree to dfk, and often times they were reluctant kisser. one of them even asked me how much tips i was going to give her.
we liked chica linda so much that we went back the following day. i picked natalia, from medellin. she was a winner as well, tall, curvy, friendly, nice smile, and generous with dfk. i had another great time. my wingman was also happy with the girl he took.
also. 3 nights in a row, we did strip club followed by ldv. i picked up there carina from baranquilla, lia from medelin, catalina from cali. ldv has a been rather a disapointment. except for carina, the others came across as hard core wgs, nice in the club but all business once in the hotel room. also, the club seems to charge a hidden bar fine. every girl insisted that she had to have 70k worth of drinks before she can leave the club. and, their starting price was around 350k pesos for short time, pretty hefty. even though there were some real eye candy there, i thought the pricing structure was too high and too confusing. i usually don't like to haggle, but i have to admit that i had fun.
we meant to try some fls at the beach but we were not too successful. we did not spend too much time at the beach, as it was too hot. we also did not locate tony the tout, mostly because we did not try too hard. we were pretty satisfied with our routine in the evening. we did meet 2 fls in boca grande, but one of them appeared **** and we did not want to take any chances.
my wingman has something against the casas. he seems to think they are not much fun, so we did not try any. when we were in medellin, i had a good time at the casas, new life in particular.

[QUOTE=CartaAngel;1408849]BTW tell me more about your wingman from Medellin I have friends going there soon[/QUOTE]Actually, my wingman came with me from the US, and both of us are newbies for Colombia. It was his first trip and my second.
As a result, we stayed at the Hotel Medellin Plaza, also known as the Mansion & Castillo (2 houses). This worked great for us, as there was quite a bit of folks knowledgeable and willing to help, such as Boyd and Fernando. We arrived smack in the middle of Easter week, so they saved our butt by helping us with our mongering activities. Hence, we hit the ground running, and within a few days, we became very comfortable with all the mongering activities there.

Lefeu are you still here? Would be cool to link up, or if anyone else is here on the hobby please do tell. I'm staying in the old town and not seeing any of these places yet, but have to do a bit of walking around, and probably more research too. Any tips appreciated, thanks.

Cartagena is bad vibes so far
[QUOTE=Hillbilly69;1410650][url]Https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF&msa=0&msid=202115846141467908565.0004a0706d2b411420a83[/url][/QUOTE]Thanks Hillbilly69, that's very helpful.
Wow, it loks like you spent a fair amount of time on this. And that you were in Cartagena a while. I take it you liked it?
I'm wondering how this city compares to Medelin for this hobby. So far, I haven't been impresed with Cartagena. It seems overun with backpackers and super agresive touts (I'm not a bad speler. Keyboard is mesed up, from this humidity I think.)
Last night, a couple of guys tried to get me to go to a strip club, and actualy folowed me through the streets at some point, reapearing an hour later: "Remember us?" Not the experience you want your first night in Colombia.
Just right now, this guy cursed me out be / see I didn't want to hear his pitch. We exchanged profanities in English and I walked away.
Now I know I shouldn't let a few bad aples spoil the bunch. But in my experience, this is what hapens when there's s too damn any tourists. Is Medelin a beter experience, in terms of interacting with the local populace and for the chicas as wel? There's ben so much street crap and I haven't even goten to the chicas.

I think I understand yr feeling. Ypu still need to understand how and where to move there. I have some suggestions.
Read MANY MANY pages of this forum. Go back reading for months or better years. Skip short comments and read long informative reports (yes, also mine LOL). Start from the RoD section.
Avoid Dulce Vida, Pleyclub, and touts on the Holliwood beach, a. K. A. The infamous Tony. I would avoid also Isis. Fun is different.
At night, dress well. Do not be confused with backpackers. Have a look at Colombian guys hanging out at night with girls. They are dressed with pricey clothes and are HANDSOME. Yes, there could be competition.
Think that this is not a brothel. Prepagos DO CHOOSE their company. If you are handsome are dressed decently, a girl will probably be keen to lower her first standard rate (150k / hr, that is ST, that is 1 shot). If she does not like you, she might ask more and will not negotiate.
Above all, Fun in CTG is EXPENSIVE! :-(
Said all this, in CTG I have had some of the most exciting and memorable adventure of my life. I cant wait to be back.

Sit in the ones that are red with a Coca Cola logo. Ask him where are the chicas. Don't buy pina coloatas and say," No gracias" when the touts come by and act uninterested. Pay attention the groups of girls sitting there are more than likely putas.

Bachelor party advice
A group of about 12 of us are headed to Cartagena for first time in end of May. I have seen different advice in regards to where to go for putas / tuts. Some of you suggest going to places like prey club while others suggest just going to clubs like Dulce Vida. What time to things really get started on the weekend? 10 or 11 or midnight? Are the girls from prey club allowed to leave to party outside that spot or do you have to pay some fee to take these girls outside of the club? Also what are the prices reallly some have quoted 100$ to 150$ for 1hour while others are quoting 50-75$. Does it matter what day meaning Friday / Saturday vs Sunday / Monday?
Also we plan on going to the beach on a Sunday afternoon. Is playa Hollywood the place to go to meet the chicas as one of the links suggested.
I'm just trying to figure out what is the best plan of attack for a group this big. Does anyone know a driver- preferably bus that could take us around at night? We plan on using Fabio for the first night.

Vans with bi lingual drivers / tour guides, both male and female are available. Some time a group like yours does well the hire a boat loaded with beers and girls and take a day to the islands. There are a lot of great activities available for a bachelor party here in Cartagena. Both cultural and party type. These kinds of activity can take some time to arrange.
Just let me know if you would like to set some activitys up in advance of your arrival.

Short update
So came into town for a bachelor party. I have been here many times. It was my 3 friends first. I was to be their guide. They did not like Juan's accomodations. We walked into Hotel Caribe and they got a 2BR suite with a junior suite for a shade under 2. 000. 000 for 2 nights! I was fine with Juan's place. The bus boy told me the chica fee is 120. 000.
We stopped by Cafe Del Mar for dinner. A lot of families. Saw some hot chicks at the bar. Is that where the working girls are? I recall someone suggesting to ask security?
Next stop was Pley Club. Taxi drivers were all over the board. From 25k to $10 but settled on 12k. Is this the going rate from Del mar? A nice selection at Pley Club, albeit a lot of silicone. They quoted 220k on premises and 600k to leave for a couple hours (including salida). It was begining to sound like a Union because most have the same quote going. We got a couple of numbers to call during the day. One hardcore one wouldn't hang during the day. Anyways, I suggested LDV. We had been at Pley Club since 10 and it was about 11:30 now.
Taxi driver wanted 17k to Laguito. Is this the rate? The guys were getting a bit tired of haggling taxi drivers so we just agreed. Happened to find one that speaks English. He said he worked at Pley Club and Isis on the side. He suggested Isis first for less silicone. All the while bashing LDV saying that they were basically street working girls. Untested with Aids. Also mentioned the drugging a while back. Anyway Isis was dead. About 10 girls and 3x as many guys. In and out we head over to LDV.
Lots of chicas many doable. The union was in full force asking for about 200-250k short time and 500k TLN. Most agreed to go for 400k. I forgot to try asking for 100k-150k like some say is possible. I speak Spanish as did one of the other guys and still quoted those rates. Apparently, the rumors of a bar fine is true! We tried to leave and they wanted 1 bottle minimum per girl! We picked 3 girls and they agreed to 1 and a half bottles (we only bought one) so we ordered another half. I asked one of my amigas this and she confirmed that a bottle or 100k minimum drink minimum. I picked a girl I knew from a previous trip and she just walked out. I guess the trick is to get her number and have her meet you around the corner to avoid this barfine hassle.
To be continued.

To be continued.[/QUOTE]Your taxi cab rates are about normal, especially from Pley club to el laguito. Isis is crap, I'd recommend staying away from that place. At LDV, you should never agree to such high rates. There's an art of negotiation. The girls think you have that kind of money to fork over so will start at a very high rate. They know you will try to bargain so they start very high. I wouldn't go over 200k max for the girls there at TLN, perhaps 225k the chica was of exceptional quality. When I was there I got good looking girls to quote me at much lower rates than what you encountered, and was told a drink minimum of 3 drinks of whatever. Most girls wanted tequila, but I'd usually look for the cheapest thing to buy them on the menu. 100k for drink minimum for chica means they hosed you down. They're most certainly getting a kickback off the 100k you left at the bar. Don't want to be harsh on you, as you sound like a first timer, but even on my first time there I was more financially responsible. Enjoy your trip, but please don't drop that kind of money there, as it makes it tougher for us to negotiate when people like you get suckered into such high prices. The girls will rightfully always start at those high rates when they know people will just pay them. If you show resistance, the girls have less options and will drop there prices.

athioctane are you the same as dogandcat? So many similarities.
Anyway, I am also in town and did not do anything with this bar fine thing. I let the girl handle it. Just told her I would wait outside and then picked her up when she left.
But I must say: you are crazy to pay these prices. Come on. 500? That must be a joke. Short time 200 is also too much I think. For these prices I can buy at home. But I confirm that the chicas are very hard to bargain down. Most would not accept my 100k short time offer. But we are obliged to get them to meet real prices, come on guys, even if you can throw money around in buckets its not fair. We are spoiling the place. And ultimately it will be fucked forever like Rio. So have a little ambition!

3rd week in May, anyone else? Can I expect to be safe?
Hi guys,
I'm flying into Cartagena the 3rd week in May 2013. I have never been to Colombia but have been all over DR many many times.
The original reason I was going was to meet a girl from LatinCupid. Com but it seems to be falling thru (to long of a story and does not matter much). I was going to stay in Barranquilla to be close to the girl but that not longer matters.
Here is my Issue / Thoughts, One I was hoping to meet up with any guys from the US that might be going?
I'm 43 and very easy going.
The bigger one, is it really safe for me to go? The day I got my plane ticket the state department issued a updated warning.
I know they cover their ass with that stuff but it's getting me thinking and I have read a lot of stuff on other web sites.
I'm planning on a back and forth on via taxi from Cartagena to Barranquilla a lot and that does not sound like a good idea at night.
My back up plan is DR and change the ticket, I feel at home almost in DR and know what to expect, the down side is I like the woman a lot but
For the most past a bit darker then I like and I really like straight (real) hair. I really want to see if I can find some non pro action with a really pretty girl.

7 day April Cartagena visit
Mirador Laquito.
I had an excellent studio apartment for $60. 00 per night. I didn't have a good view but I was more than satisfied for the price. The internet was slow sometimes but overall it was pretty efficient. Security was on point 24 hours a day. Chicas had to sign in with cedula and the front door was always locked, you had to be buzzed in and out by security. The location was familiar to all the taxi drivers and there were ATM's and restaurants close by. Would I stay there again? HELL YEAH!
Transportation.
Walking was easy to most spots in Laquito and Boca Grand. Taxis to the Old City were about 6, 000CP ($3. 50). I knew a local from one of my previous trips who showed my around town and took me to the poor man's venues for gas money.
Restaurants.
There were a variety according to taste but I enjoyed Riquisimo's which was within walking distance of my apartment. The food was good but on the expensive side. There was something for everybody within walking distance.
Roadmap to success
The beach during the day at Playa Hollywood. The Clock Tower in the Old City in the early evening. LDV later at night. The After One of Cartagena is Elecktra in the Old City. If you follow that path you should have some success.
La Dolce Vida (LDV)
My first night I was pissed at Pocahontas wanted 350, 000CP regardless as to how fine she was. I went back almost every night and enjoyed the ambiance the music and the view. I know I'll get hate from Brazil lovers but in my opinion Colombianas are some of the most beautiful woman in the world. LDV was plastic surgery central but many of the chicas were naturally beautiful. My ego enjoyed the attention with their eyes saying 'pick me! ' The staff was attentive and cordial.
Electricka.
Ok after hours spot but it was a small venue. I didn't care for the lighting ambiance or music but there were some FYNE chicas there.
Clock Tower.
Just inside the front entrance of the Old City male and female sex workers hang out. There were some good looking chicas there but as a rule they couldn't touch the LDV chicas.
Casas.
Barrio Los Alpes: Allondra – salida 80, 000CP negotiate with the chica her tarifa. Even though I had a bad experience they had the finest chicas of all the othe casas I went to and I am confident the gringo tax could be avoided by speaking to the hefe first and let him know the deal.
Gringo Tax.
The hefe in Allondra tried to hit me up for 500, 000CP after I already negotiated with the chica for 150, 000CP. He fell and hit his head if he thought I was going to put his kid through private school so I walked out.
Electrika the hefe said I had to buy 80, 000CP in drinks before I could take a woman out I gave him 20, 000CP to callete! He watches gringos and when he sees them make their move he tries to hit you up. If you go just ask your chica to leave and you follow her later.
Tarifas.
At the Clock Tower and La Playa I wouldn't pay more than 100, 000CP.
LDV can range from 150, 000CP to 350, 000CP. I would stay between 150 – 200, 000CP.
Electrika can range from 150, 000CP to 350, 000CP. I would stay between 150 – 200, 000CP.
Casas all have salidas and you have to negotiate separately with the chicas. In house will always be cheaper but most do half hour increments.
Policia.
Always carry a copy of your passport with you because there are road blocks everywhere especially at night. There is no such thing as reasonable articulable suspicion or probable cause. In Colombia I was stopped twice and patted down. If you like party favors I would encourage you to pass just my humble opinion. Last edited by camaro1257; Today at 03:22 AM.

Cartagena Trip Report Any one need a roommate?
I hope this is the proper forum and I can receive some good advice thank you.
I am going to Cartagena tomorrow 4/29 to 5/1 after a week with friends in Barranquilla. I enjoyed my friends but need another form of fun before I return to the dismal hell of USA. I have played in other cities incl Medellin, but never Cartagena. My plan is simple now. Hang out at the beach. Meet girls there.
Going to try Costa del sol hotel. Unless someone has a better idea. I can also pitch-in for an unoccupied room in an apartment. Anyway, If anyone wants to advise me or meet up with a CARTA newbie. I am open to suggestion.

I'm flying into Cartagena the 3rd week in May 2013. I have never been to Colombia but have been all over DR many many times.
The original reason I was going was to meet a girl from LatinCupid. Com but it seems to be falling thru (to long of a story and does not matter much). I was going to stay in Barranquilla to be close to the girl but that not longer matters.
Here is my Issue / Thoughts, One I was hoping to meet up with any guys from the US that might be going?
I'm 43 and very easy going.
The bigger one, is it really safe for me to go? The day I got my plane ticket the state department issued a updated warning.
I know they cover their ass with that stuff but it's getting me thinking and I have read a lot of stuff on other web sites.
I'm planning on a back and forth on via taxi from Cartagena to Barranquilla a lot and that does not sound like a good idea at night.
My back up plan is DR and change the ticket, I feel at home almost in DR and know what to expect, the down side is I like the woman a lot but
For the most past a bit darker then I like and I really like straight (real) hair. I really want to see if I can find some non pro action with a really pretty girl.[/QUOTE]You need to either stay in Barranquilla maybe at the Lincoln, or stay in Laguito and invite the girls there from Barranquilla by bus.
Not a good idea to want to meet a monger if you are courting a hot non pro unless you want to get cock blocked, undermined, snitched on, and while your in the bathroom he tries getting her number, bad mouthing you and he probably mooches off you as well.
Is it safe? Cartagena all of Laguito is safer than any spot I can think of in the DR that I have been, Barranquilla not so much but it depends on whether you blend in or not. If it was me I would stay in Cartagena and invite one in from Barranquilla, especially seeing it is your first time there she could show you around seeing you don't have the hoe monger stereotype stamped on your forehead. I don't suggest hanging with her in Playa Hollywood at all but if for some reason Tony knows her she is a puta in disguise.

Sure you can wait outside for them, but to me this is BS. The dollar is really strong in the DR compared to Colombia. In Sosua there are some light skinned girls to be had. Since you already like the DR I think that is your best bet.
If you decide on CTG then don't take a taxi to BAQ. They have vans going there thru the day for a much better rate.
As for the state department, and their warnings I just laugh at them as CTG is safer than any large city in the USA.
As far as your wanting non pro action with a really pretty girl you will need to speak passable Spanish, and be able to devote a lot of time, and some money as they like to be wined, and dined when they hook up with a Gringo. Also drama will be on the menu.

Thanks for all the in put everyone.
Thanks for all the in put everyone.
Hillbilly69 cracked me up about meeting a monger. LOL I will take that advise.
My Spanish is not bad I have been around Latin woman for over 10 years in relationships.
Not sure what I will do, Last time I was in Sousa I rented a house and had a blast. But the Draw of the woman in Colombia is strong.
I might just go and stay in CTG, I have a great deal on a ticket and don't want to waste more money to change.

As far as accommodations go by yourself? Tough call Martins beach isn't avail end of May, I am staying in Jack's 7th floor Torre Centuro condo pretty soon, was in it February and everything in it is new, great view, wifi, daily maid A / C 50 bucks a night, the building is older but quite frankly I have stayed at all the Mirador Del Laguito apts they all suck, something is always wrong with them and towels is always an issue except for the penthouse.

Yes Elecktra is open

Bandy[/QUOTE]Yes, Elecktra is open the Hefe will watch you and try to gringo tax you, this can be avoided by having your chica meet you outside without walking out together.

[QUOTE=Hioctane; 1416009]So came into town for a bachelor party. I have been here many times. It was my 3 friends first. I was to be their guide. They did not like Juan's accomodations. We walked into Hotel Caribe and they got a 2BR suite with a junior suite for a shade under 2. 000. 000 for 2 nights! I was fine with Juan's place. The bus boy told me the chica fee is 120. 000.
We stopped by Cafe Del Mar for dinner. A lot of families. Saw some hot chicks at the bar. Is that where the working girls are? I recall someone suggesting to ask security?
Next stop was Pley Club. Taxi drivers were all over the board. From 25k to $10 but settled on 12k. Is this the going rate from Del mar? A nice selection at Pley Club, albeit a lot of silicone. They quoted 220k on premises and 600k to leave for a couple hours (including salida). It was begining to sound like a Union because most have the same quote going. We got a couple of numbers to call during the day. One hardcore one wouldn't hang during the day. Anyways, I suggested LDV. We had been at Pley Club since 10 and it was about 11:30 now.
Taxi driver wanted 17k to Laguito. Is this the rate? The guys were getting a bit tired of haggling taxi drivers so we just agreed. Happened to find one that speaks English. He said he worked at Pley Club and Isis on the side. He suggested Isis first for less silicone. All the while bashing LDV saying that they were basically street working girls. Untested with Aids. Also mentioned the drugging a while back. Anyway Isis was dead. About 10 girls and 3x as many guys. In and out we head over to LDV.
Lots of chicas many doable. The union was in full force asking for about 200-250k short time and 500k TLN. Most agreed to go for 400k. I forgot to try asking for 100k-150k like some say is possible. I speak Spanish as did one of the other guys and still quoted those rates. Apparently, the rumors of a bar fine is true! We tried to leave and they wanted 1 bottle minimum per girl! We picked 3 girls and they agreed to 1 and a half bottles (we only bought one) so we ordered another half. I asked one of my amigas this and she confirmed that a bottle or 100k minimum drink minimum. I picked a girl I knew from a previous trip and she just walked out. I guess the trick is to get her number and have her meet you around the corner to avoid this barfine hassle.
To be continued.[/QUOTE]Doing my part. Turned down 2 chicas insisting on 200k. One at the beach, one at a restaurant. Likely I may breakdown soon.

Elektra
[QUOTE=Camaro1257;1417013]Yes, Elecktra is open the Hefe will watch you and try to gringo tax you, this can be avoided by having your chica meet you outside without walking out together.[/QUOTE]I sent them a message on Facebook, they confirm that they are open again, confusing with the other club nearby with a similar name.

Get their number before you negociate, they are on the clock at night, daytime sessions are easily half price. On another note I hardly ever stay inside the LDV, once I get my beer I go outside and sit on the bench and go in and out as I please with my beer. You guys in groups should split up and sit on the stairs if your getting lubed for 100k bottles.

Another thought about Cartagena.
[QUOTE=Camaro1257; 1416608]Mirador Laquito.
I had an excellent studio apartment for $60. 00 per night. I didn't have a good view but I was more than satisfied for the price. The internet was slow sometimes but overall it was pretty efficient. Security was on point 24 hours a day. Chicas had to sign in with cedula and the front door was always locked, you had to be buzzed in and out by security. The location was familiar to all the taxi drivers and there were ATM's and restaurants close by. Would I stay there again? HELL YEAH!
Transportation.
Walking was easy to most spots in Laquito and Boca Grand. Taxis to the Old City were about 6, 000CP ($3. 50). I knew a local from one of my previous trips who showed my around town and took me to the poor man's venues for gas money.
Restaurants.
There were a variety according to taste but I enjoyed Riquisimo's which was within walking distance of my apartment. The food was good but on the expensive side. There was something for everybody within walking distance.
Roadmap to success
The beach during the day at Playa Hollywood. The Clock Tower in the Old City in the early evening. LDV later at night. The After One of Cartagena is Elecktra in the Old City. If you follow that path you should have some success.
La Dolce Vida (LDV)
My first night I was pissed at Pocahontas wanted 350, 000CP regardless as to how fine she was. I went back almost every night and enjoyed the ambiance the music and the view. I know I'll get hate from Brazil lovers but in my opinion Colombianas are some of the most beautiful woman in the world. LDV was plastic surgery central but many of the chicas were naturally beautiful. My ego enjoyed the attention with their eyes saying 'pick me! ' The staff was attentive and cordial.
Electricka.
Ok after hours spot but it was a small venue. I didn't care for the lighting ambiance or music but there were some FYNE chicas there.
Clock Tower.
Just inside the front entrance of the Old City male and female sex workers hang out. There were some good looking chicas there but as a rule they couldn't touch the LDV chicas.
Casas.
Barrio Los Alpes: Allondra – salida 80, 000CP negotiate with the chica her tarifa. Even though I had a bad experience they had the finest chicas of all the othe casas I went to and I am confident the gringo tax could be avoided by speaking to the hefe first and let him know the deal.
Gringo Tax.
The hefe in Allondra tried to hit me up for 500, 000CP after I already negotiated with the chica for 150, 000CP. He fell and hit his head if he thought I was going to put his kid through private school so I walked out.
Electrika the hefe said I had to buy 80, 000CP in drinks before I could take a woman out I gave him 20, 000CP to callete! He watches gringos and when he sees them make their move he tries to hit you up. If you go just ask your chica to leave and you follow her later.
Tarifas.
At the Clock Tower and La Playa I wouldn't pay more than 100, 000CP.
LDV can range from 150, 000CP to 350, 000CP. I would stay between 150 – 200, 000CP.
Electrika can range from 150, 000CP to 350, 000CP. I would stay between 150 – 200, 000CP.
Casas all have salidas and you have to negotiate separately with the chicas. In house will always be cheaper but most do half hour increments.
Policia.
Always carry a copy of your passport with you because there are road blocks everywhere especially at night. There is no such thing as reasonable articulable suspicion or probable cause. In Colombia I was stopped twice and patted down. If you like party favors I would encourage you to pass just my humble opinion. Last edited by camaro1257; Today at 03:22 AM.[/QUOTE]One thing I forgot to mention in my summary your appearance does matter to some of the chicas I saw in LDV and Electricka. I saw more than one walk away from grubby looking guys. In addition I did recieve a favorable comment from one; I was only wearing a polo shirt, athletic pants and gym shoes. She made it seem like she was more attracted to men who dress nice. Just a thought.

Guys,
Can someone of you explain to me the chicas on the beach thing as I don't quite get it. I was there now multiple times but all I can see is normal tourists and families. I know I am at the right spot as I got to know Tony already. I find it really hard to find chicas during the day, but for me is better, as I don't like to party until 5 in the morning every
Night so much. Out of despair I asked Tony if he knew some chicas. The outcome was that he presented to me two horrible looking sluts, no joke the ugliest bitches I have seen in CTG to date and demanded 70k. I needed to buy a beer for all of them just to get out of that.
I mean there must be a bunch of decent looking girls during the day somewhere or are they all asleep until 8 pm?

Describe to Tony exactly what are looking for.
Tell him how much you will pay her, how much you will pay for the taxi etc.
In Tony's mind he wants to make at least 100K from this appointment, all cut from direct fees, drinks margin, taxi, a cut from the girl etc. Your total bill should be close to 200K all included, Tony and a girl and this is a fairdeal. You have to be tough and explain to him when you won't pay anything, like when she won't meet your expectations in person. Here is an example. You pay to the girl 150K taxi included for day ST. 30K out of it goes to T. You pay T. Directly 50K for 'a beer'. Tony's driver will pick up the girl and drive her back. Once with a girl turn off her and yours mobile phones.

Fao is an alternative to Tony he is just a little to the left as you are facing the water. You need to sit close to the water as possible and watch each and every girl that walks by. These are Colombia girls not Sosua putas they aren't going to come up and grope you. My friend that lives there says the puta count is down 50 percent, he blames the Secret Service scandal. I ain't so sure, I think them putas are traveling like never before and have a thorn up their ass to visit Mexico, if you even have a couple of those popular Medellin prepagos on your Facebook page you can see what I am saying. Best time at the beach is 2-5 pm. And any group of girls without a guy with them assume they are putas.

Decent talent at the beach today. I took two an 8 and a seven. 80k pesos each.

Baech
Tied up at dentist this morning. Went parasailing out on friends boat. Thanks Cptnb. Hit the beach. Kind of dead seeing it is May and midweek. Almost took a transie back to apart. Biggest tits on the beach. WTF. Found a 20 year old flsca 90 lbs with a majik tight coochee and just finished up for 80k again. Headed to Centro shortly.

Looking for a Two bed room 5/17 to 5/21 In Cartagena
Flying in from south Texas. This is my second time. I stayed at Hotel Caribe, about 2 years ago and it was hell trying to get chicks in. Can you please help I'm taking my main wing man with m this time and I would like to get it right and not have to take chicks to the "by the hour places". Now I've heard a few good suggestions but then the apt has something wrong like. Apartamentos Torres Del Lago not having hot water, maid service, dirty, towel service, or sheet service and Mirador I think the reviews said it also did not have sheet or towel service. I'm willing to pay extra so me any my boy can: 1) have our own rooms 2) not have to do wash sheets 3) bring chicks up to our pad with out having to pay extra a la "Hotel Caribe" *Please Help*

Beach was dead yesrerday. A couple lookers but just took numbers and passed. Went to Centro 8pm gave a guy a walking tour so can navigate better to Isis. Elektra and others. Electricita is closed best I can figure is Aldo opened a different place till he came up with back rent. Tony has been on his best behavior. Was by the clock tower just before 9pm last night and arguably a 9 was sitting on the bench. She looked like Halle Berry. Some dumb ass with a beer cooler tried to play pimp saying 150k pesos for the girls. I told him get away from me. 4 other girls on the bench as well sevens and eights. I offered the Halle Berry chic 100k pesos for an hour and she gladly accepted. Road her for an hour good tight one. Left wingman hanging but he was waiting gor a calena at Isis anyway. Got another dentist appointment this morning had to get 3 fillings and a root canal total damage 440 dollars. Got 1760 per dollar exchange rate in laguito. Haven't made it to Centro to check the rates seeing they were closed. Another Hilton opened like a dumb ass I didn't ask about chica policies or prices. On a Kindle fire so sorry about spelling. Hampton by Hilton is yhe name of the new hotel it is across the street from Atlantic casino and behind Palmetto one and just walking by not sure if quite open yet.

Luxury hotels
I am sorry if I ask a question that comes and comes back again. I have a friend who'd like to come visit CTG. He is has no problems of funds and he is used to stay in very good hotels. I feel his best accommodation would be the Santa Clara in San Diego, or some of the nice boutique hotels in the Centro. The reason is that he likes chicas, but he would NOT travel only for that purpose. He likes style, good food and the charme of the city within the Walls. Therefore, I'd recommend him that hotel, because of its quality and of the magic location.
Anybody knows what happens if ones at night brings back a girl to Santa Clara (I assume she would not be a sleazy one from CL. Media Luna)? Stopped at the door? Asked to pay extra? Thanks.

Novia showed up night before last from Medellin. The beach was kind of dead. Ran into Locogringo in the small Olympica. Exchanged some info and laughs I haven't seen him in while. Thanks for the lift. 1800 was the exchange rate in Centro. Buddy was leaving for the USA today so he took us out on his boat parasailing and to a remote beach at Isla Terre on south side of the Rosario islands. Went to Isla the Cholon later had lobster and shrimp for 40k pesos. Novia did some snorkling near there. Owner of the apartment I am staying in called he was making us up a dinner so we headed back for a fine meal.

Guys,
If you don't like an apartment for whatever reasons I recommend you to stay in the new Hampton by Hilton Hotel. I am there right now and it is fantastic. It only recently opened and everything is totally new, paint just dry. But the best thing is, they don't have a Lobby when you enter, the lobby is on the 17st floor so you can bring somebody to your room without anyone taking notice. To me this is even better than an apartment where you always have 2 to 3 people watching you when you enter the building. I don't like that and that is why I moved here. The only risk is of course how long they will do it like that. With all the scammers and con artists in Cartagena they might soon move a security guy in front of the elevators to prevent people from opening a food stall or a CD vending table in the entrance. But for now it is fine, I can really recommend it.

[QUOTE=Nino Bravo;1421640]To answer your 2 questions. Yes, and Yes.[/QUOTE]I missed to add the 3rd question: after being stopped and having been requested to pay the extra, is the girl allowed? Anybody knows the policy of Santa Clara?
I was at Sheraton Medellin, and I had to pay a significant extra (60k) every night I had a friend with me, and she registered with me at the reception. The night the girl just showed up alone at the reception (she came from the club by bike, I came by taxi 15 mins before) , the tax was increased to 100k, because the policy of the hotel hinders occasional guests.

One for 100, 000 but more like 150, 000 to 200, 000 and make sure they understand you are talking pesos. The other place to find girls is along the road from the beach to the hilton.
I have been approached by very hot young girls there. There is also a guy standing up front of the apartment building I was staying that could call girls for you.
I have a email address of a very hot chica in the mid 20s I meet this way. If you are interested I could send you the email and a picture.

But the best thing is, they don't have a Lobby when you enter, the lobby is on the 17st floor so you can bring somebody to your room without anyone taking notice. To me this is even better than an apartment where you always have 2 to 3 people watching you when you enter the building. I don't like that and that is why I moved here. The only risk is of course how long they will do it like that. With all the scammers and con artists in Cartagena they might soon move a security guy in front of the elevators to prevent people from opening a food stall or a CD vending table in the entrance. But for now it is fine, I can really recommend it.[/QUOTE]What great news! I've been always perplexed knowing that even in apts there is someone asking IDs and registering all guests. However, it's true that if guests are not registered, then minimum an ample safety box and double eyes are required.

[QUOTE=Nino Bravo;1421814]Santa Clara is very strict. The girl will be allowed, but they will keep her cedula until she leaves. That has been my experience.[/QUOTE]Ok. Not so strict. At least, they allow guests (I assume decently dressed, considered the high-class environment).
Think that in my previous favourite hotel in San Diego (a small but cozy one) , last time I was told that that guests were not allowed UNLESS REGISTERED WITH ME UPON MY CHECK-IN. I tried to ask "my novia is coming probably tomorrow or the day after." and their inflexible reply was "ok give me her cedula details now".

[QUOTE=JeffCooper; 1421815]Guys,

-
I don't see any security issues. Nobody who is not living at your floor can get to it. And when a chica runs wild, throw her out of the room. The only way she can go is to the exit or to the lobby. The best security for me is good people judgement and a proper "job interview" to figure out if a girl is honest and nice or a crook. Of course you can never tell for sure, but during the years I build up quite a decent sense for that. If a problem arises, I think the guys in front of the apartment buildings would not do any other thing either than call the police. They are pretty useless in my view.

I don't get this Tony thing in general. Why ever deal with him? I mean it is not that nobody else rents chairs there and the beer I can get myself if needed (with the added advantage that I can get closer to the real price). I find the people at other spots on the beach much nicer and as I wrote, Tony was not especially helpful with chicas either.

-
I don't know what their official guest policy is, since I never asked them. But I think no Hotel in the world can forbid you to bring someone to your room. Staying overnight is of course another story. I never had a girl overnight, don't like that. But I doubt that anyone would ever notice at the Hampton (as long as it is like it is now with nobody at the elevators).
In my booking breakfast is included.

Got delayed two hours on CTG due to AC problems on the plane actuallyhad to deplane. Bought the big front seat to cut my time. The customs line was too long so missed my flight I should have cut but thought I had time but that 20 minute prior to departure time got me. I was at the Spirit rebooking counter even before my scheduled departure. With carry on only you would think they would have let me board. Heard some Spirit horror stories on getting stiffed for hotels. They paid for a room at Fairfield Inn transport three vouchers and booked me a flight on Us Airway for this morning. I guess the rule is if you have less than an hour to connect they have to pay otherwise you do. The free transportation I waited too long finally took a cab both ways from airport. What a clusterfuck. Nice rooms at the hotel. I got to connect in DC for Detroit hopefully I make it I am in the front again. LOL

Going to work you up. They say 200 you say 150 they they say 175 you say 160 and then they don't move so then I'll fuck with them and go back to 150. Just keep fucking with them like they fuck with you then move on.
Then you say ok lets go 160. We got the cash and lie lie lie. Say your going to call the chica from the night before anything to not make them feel special or worth what they are asking.

I speak Spanish very well, so I avoid him. My problem is that he is counterproductive. Meaning he will extort any freelance girls that do a deal with you on the beach. It's basically, fine ignore me but you will pay one way or another. This is my beach.

On arrival I told him I had no intention to use any of services because of his very bad reputation. What I did was that I always asked another guy for a chair and soon it became easy to tell him, or anyone in his punk-ass crew, that I had "a deal" with another tout that I was to respect.
I don't think the fucking guy gets anything from the freelance girls that come to the public beach for a few days, even if they are seen leaving with a gringo. Anyway, to be 100% sure and to keep Tony dealing in scrubby 1000 and 2000 notes, here's what you do: get the girls' telephone numbers and have them coming to your place later on.

You have the beach and better nightlife, but double or triple the cost of Medellin on almost everything. Very expensive place for a first time visitor.
Medellin:
Casas and more opportunity for day time action because of the casas.

Also has a great transportation system for getting around.

I guess I feel better about Cartagena because its more touristy and I don't know much about the casas in Medellin. But I always hear people raving about how great Medellin is.

Joe Shmoe, respecting all opinions from anyone on this board, I don't think Cartagena beaches are filthy otherwise it wouldn't be the most wanted destination by Colombian people in general when vacation time is on. The beaches don't look as nice as the bahamas' but you can be sure they are clean, the water is not crystaline because of all the boats and jetskiies coming to shore and stirring up the sand from the bottom with thier propellers.
2 things you have to consider: if you are looking for a quality vacation you may want to choose CTG, it is very charming, safer, full of history and if you deal with the right people you can have an unforgettable time without spending a whole lot of money, you get more variety in CTG.
About Medellin, it is a lovely city with a nice weather but it offers tourists a different experience, if you are strictly looking for pussy Medellin is the right choice but after you are jaded of that, what else can you do, you should do both cities and then judge them for youself, Saludos.

One natural downside is the black sand. Black sand beaches are by nature not that attractive. They also make the water look darker than it is there by adding to the "filth" effect.

The propeller story
HAHAHHAHA, I knew everybody would trip over that one, I did too when I heard it from Tony once at Hollywood beach, LOL, I agree with Vitrea, Cartagena beaches aren't great because of the dark sand, though I have never heard or seen anyone getting sick from swimming in that filthy ocean as I read on here, the one thing we all have to agree is that Colombia is a cool country that offers different experiences depending on where you go and what activities you want to do, I love its people, to me some of the best I've ever encountered

I found the culture to be aggressive and overrun by locals that are trying to take advantage of the tourists. No meters in cabs or set prices on many things so everything is a negotiation. Eating at a restaurant in the old city I counted 55 people in 1 hour asking me to buy something. How in the world am I supposed to relax? It is hot as hell and beaches are not pretty nor are the girls. I found the scene to be full of professional working girls and for someone who has extended time in Latin America I can't deal with this type of scene. I am sure there are some experienced mongers who know the scene well and are getting good experiences but that place is not for me.
Many Colombians travel to this beach and it is the only beach they have ever seen in their life. They return to their home cities in Colombia with great stories of how beautiful the ocean was. Also, many cruise ships stop in this port. This city probably has a better Gringo infrastructure along with working girls than the other stops on the cruise. I see past all of this to see a city that is way OVERRATED.
Maybe I am way off base but this is my 2 cents.

Vegas Jeff, I see you didn't have a good experience in CTG, I see what you are saying, I know there are a lot of vendors and hustlers that make you want to break out to tell them off when you are walking on either the beach or in the old town, my wingman there in CTG taught me a sentence (ESTOY MONDAO) every time I use it noone wants to deal with me any more because they think I am a broke ass gringo LOL, it basically means I am tapped out, Lmao. I am used to being harrassed by vendors all the time, in Mexico and Jamaica they can be worse, bottom line is: that is typical of any touristic destination.
I go to CTG because of the quality friends I have there, Bocagrande Beaches aren't all that great but they are still fun, when I feel like swimming or scubadiving in a ocean or beach I get on a boat to Rosario islands, that does it for me, the water is so clean and marvellous, thats why I love that small coastal city.
I have had bad experiences in Bogota, Medellin, Cali and pereira, I got robbedtwice in Bogota and once in Medellin, food at restaurants in all these cities mentioned was horribly nasty and not fresh at all, any ways I am going to make a big memorandum out of the bad experiences I had but after getting booty nothing else to do, I did have lots of fun with friends in Medellin, Medellin is good to me my second choice after CTG, whats up with Ferias de las flores, I heard it is a good time of the year to visit Medellin though the prices double, I hope they don't emulate that high season model type that we all know

[QUOTE=Vegas Jeff; 1428533]I have only been to Cartagena once for a week and will never return. I found the culture to be aggressive and overrun by locals that are trying to take advantage of the tourists. No meters in cabs or set prices on many things so everything is a negotiation. Eating at a restaurant in the old city I counted 55 people in 1 hour asking me to buy something. How in the world am I supposed to relax? It is hot as hell and beaches are not pretty nor are the girls. I found the scene to be full of professional working girls and for someone who has extended time in Latin America I can't deal with this type of scene. I am sure there are some experienced mongers who know the scene well and are getting good experiences but that place is not for me.
Many Colombians travel to this beach and it is the only beach they have ever seen in their life. They return to their home cities in Colombia with great stories of how beautiful the ocean was. Also, many cruise ships stop in this port. This city probably has a better Gringo infrastructure along with working girls than the other stops on the cruise. I see past all of this to see a city that is way OVERRATED.
Maybe I am way off base but this is my 2 cents.[/QUOTE]VJ,
I'm going to guess that the restaurant you tried to eat at was in Plaza Santo Domingo? After you get to know Cartagena, you'll know better than to go there. Obviously can't blame you for going there on your first trip, but experienced travelers avoid it like the plague for that reason. Granted, you will get approached by vendors in Cartagena, but after a while, they really don't bother you. Just a simple "no gracias" and then move on.
You state the scene is full of working girls, but again, where did you go? La Dolce Vita? Elektra? Playa Hollywood? Then yes, all you will encounter are pros. Get off the beaten trail and tourist traps, and there are plenty of hot girls. (Although Medellin and the interior cities are better for this, clearly.)
Cabbies? Yes, they will scam you if you don't know the prices, they consider it a gringo tax. Somebody on here posted a link to the official prices, know what the fare is beforehand and give exactly that to the cabbies. (Sure, you shouldn't have to, but.)
The beach is what it is. Is your glass half empty or half full? For me it's a great place to kill a day with friends sipping cold beers, listening to music, and looking at the ocean and the chicas. Beats the hell out of work.
Oh and I'll go out on a limb here, and state with certainty that the water is not dirty or polluted. Get away from the beach and it's actually clear out there. But I'm sure nobody will believe me.
The old city is incredible if you go in the early evening and do some exploring, amazing if you're into old architecture.
Anyway, Cartagena can be a good destination, it sounds like you might just need another trip or two to get dialed in.

Cartagena recent trip
I will give you my quick report, overall I had a good time in Cartagena these are things that might help you plan your trip.
I am no expert this was my first trip.
I do not speak Spanish but Google Translate did help (download the pack before you leave, voice translate only works with Wi-Fi)
I stayed in El Laguito and not in Centro or in the hostel district. Carry a copy of your passport, although I never was stopped.
Money: You will get ripped off if you change at the airport money exchange after you pick up your bags, they charge you like $10 per $100.
Go to an ATM in town. Mostly you can only take at 150, 000 at a time but I saw higher in Centro.
Exchange rate: 1900 = $10, therefore 50, 000 = $26, just half everything.
Taxis: it is always 6, 000. Tell the driver it is 6, 000 before you even get in. This price is still higher than what locals pay.
20, 000 to the airport.
Mobile phone: bring a cheap one with you and buy a chip, you can pay someone to get you this but you will pay double for the convenience $50US.
You can get card topped up at most internet cafes. Girl's text a lot but they always run out of minutes or say they do. They will borrow your phone to make calls on your minutes.
A blackberry might work well for BBM as mostly that's what I saw they were using. The girls live on their mobiles, charging the phone and constant messaging is non-stop.
When you leave you will be one of the 100's of gringos messaging these beautiful creatures.
Food: the food is ok, not great. You can get pizza, fish and beef at local grill type restaurants. If you go into Centro you can go to high end restaurants.
And pay up to $200US a person if you wish. Usually a coffee and a sandwich will run you $9US.
Drinks: you can pay $1. 50US for a beer on the beach or in a bar or go to places like Cafe del Mar and Cafe Havana and pay $10US for a mojito.
One thing about drinking in Cartagena, I could not find a single place where it is a social pub type place to hang out.
The drinking culture is about Latin music and in groups of friends, not a place where you go alone and mingle. If you do mingle with girls you can.
Almost guarantee the girls are pay for play.
Girls.
The street: I never did this, the reports here say go to the clock tower at dusk, but with so many police about I wasn't interested.
The malls: lots of pretty girls at the mall but without Spanish you will be struggling.
The beach: I never did this but saw some on the beach that were average, one was nice.
The discotheque: I didn't go to LDV etc. As these didn't get going until after 11pm and I was going elsewhere.
The brothels: I didn't go to any.
When having girls over to your hotel go directly to your safe and put all cash, watch, credit cards, passport and mobile phone away.
If you texted one girl to come over they may bring a friend. You can be clear and say this isn't what you had in mind and one will leave. If you have both stay but only get busy with one.
The other will expect a few $$ for waiting around in your hotel. The girls are completely familiar with the group situation, may have boyfriends and will stay in bed or shower while you are busy with the other girl.
Wingman: The contact I made before going did bring very good looking girls directly to my hotel. I will go into detail of what to expect from this experience.
This is a business; do not think for a minute that you are special or that the wingman will give you special treatment. If another client is paying more or there is a.
Group of guys paying more, your calls will not get returned until the next day.
When girls are dropped off, there is not a set tip for the wingman and tips of 50, 000 are expected.
The girl usually lives at home or has a child and will be reluctant to stay overnight without planning that beforehand. If they do stay overnight, they may expect to leave at.
5 Am. Without going into my personal experience, and guys here will disagree, you can expect 150, 000 for a couple of hours and 300, 000 from say 10pm-5am.
I would suggest that if you meet a group of girls apart from the wingman; keep these in your back pocket for when the wingman falls through.
Lastly I would say, Centro is a beautiful place, quite small, you can expect to discover it within 3 days. The streets are dusty and untidy but the people are good natured, they are only trying to earn a living like all of us.
You can book a day trip to the islands where the water is clear blue.
Expect to pay double for a boat trip if you go through a contact and check if booze is included to clear up any disappointment.
Cartagena can be a party place if you have a group of friends with you or to visit. It can be very high end or backpacker, hostel.
Like me, you will meet some of the most beautiful women on this planet. They will make you feel young and alive. Try to keep in mind that this is a fantasy and a vacation.
And enjoy it for what it is. It's only natural to think of how you can make this experience eternal and how you could spend all of your life with this one beautiful girl.
The reality is that while you are seeing her she has probably been with many men that week or even day. She has many guys texting her and promising a better life.
Perhaps she doesn't want a better life; she has a family and a country she loves. She's able to buy the things she needs and look sexy and fashionable, probably gifts from a guys just like you.
Try to think with the big head but good luck to you if you find the needle in the haystack. More interesting stories I found on this topic at colombiahelp dot com.
Se fuerte mis amigos.

Rockit66, Great report, can you share some pics of the girls you had? Pm me if you like, Who was your wingman, he must've done a good job so that you would not need to visit the casas or LDV

Cartagena romance?
Gents,
Have travel to Cartagena booked for August. Question (s) are:
I'm staying at one of the nicer hotels, which I imagine to not be chica friendly in north San Diego portion of the old city. While this is my first COl. Trip, I, ve had my stripes earned (in some cases literally!) in northern Mex, Brazil, Uraguay. So, questions:
- Easiest options for taking girls in near El Centro / San Diego for hourly options (preferably not to skanky)
-is LDV not ideal place to break to get my "toes" wet? I am hoping for the true GFE experience.
-any experience taking GFE types to Islas Rosarias? That would be great IMHO if logistics work and gals willing.
- In Brazil, bringing Victorias Secret body creams as impromptu gifts worked for me. Does same apply in Colombia?
- Hoping to accompany other fellows in Cartagena while in country. Local pub to meet blokes to wing with? I speak spanish w / touch of carribean accent
Cheers,
