Cartagena Reports

I am currently in Medellin and looking into going to Cartagena for the first time just for a few days to change things up a bit. So far I have gone back 65 pages and from what I can gather Cartagena seems to be around 3-4 times the price of Medellin for chicas at least. Now I know not everything comes down to price alone and I know there are many other factors for some of you guys but at the moment in Medellin I can get a decent looking Milerotica girl, strip club girl, casa girl or a SW for around 50 -70 k or TLN for 150 k. However when I speed read through a lot of the info here it seems like the average price for ST is 150-200 k. Of course that's not going to break the bank but I am wondering why so many of you guys would prefer Cartegena over Medellin and it seems a lot of you have been going here for quite a while.

I'm not saying Medellin doesn't have that (never been), but Cartagena has a lot of history, miles of beaches (albeit shitty) if you stay in the city, and beautiful views from all those new condo developments in Bocagrandes and Laquito. It's pricey for a reason.

Total lockdown next weekend so go during the week. 9 pm curfew.
If you are just going for girls its not worth it.

[QUOTE=MongerHunger;2559974]Anybody hear about an American that fell to his death from the upper floors of the Holiday Inn in Cartagena and landed on a taxi?[/QUOTE]Seems like this may have been a Canadian guy that jumped from a Holiday Inn in Cucuta.

The mayor of Cartagena announced that starting on next Saturday the curfew will be 10:00 pm 7 days a week beaches open till 6:00 everyday so any of you on the fence about visiting things are looking a bit better as far as the curfew goes..... That's enough time for there to be a little bit nightlife around the clock Tower

[QUOTE=Kafka;2560602]Check my last post.[/QUOTE]My bad not sure how I didn't see that LOL appreciate it.

There is quite a bit of discussion on the thread in the title line about this unfortunate incident.

[QUOTE=MongerHunger;2560389]Seems like this may have been a Canadian guy that jumped from a Holiday Inn in Cucuta.[/QUOTE]Yes there was a Facebook post that said it was in Cartagena but another BM replied to my post that indeed it was actually in Cucuta, I had looked at the video that was posted on FB that showed the guy and the taxi that he landed on, and could not match it to a location in Cartagena on google street view, but as soon as the BM said it happened in Cucuta I looked up the Holiday Inn there and sure enough it was the place from the video.

This just popped up on FB and I researched it and came up with a couple of other sources that are saying the same thing. Curfew is in effect and pico why cedula is in effect. 10 pm - 5 am.

Beaches open 8 am - 6 pm.

If you are going down then you may have to get your supplies from some neighborhood market. I have heard of people alternately showing their drivers license and their passport to gain entrance to supermarkets but I do not know if this would work for sure, the article shows the numbers that your ID needs to end in to gain entrance to these places, and I am posting an image I found on FB.

"The measure of pico why cedula had no variations in this new decree, therefore, it will continue to be applied for entry to financial entities, shopping centers, Bazurto Market, department stores and supermarkets in general. ".

Yes this happened yesterday.......the ICUs are still around 90% full but the difference is that Barranquilla is now seeing less cases and they can move patients down up there if necessary.

Left Cartagena about a month ago it was getting draconian with their lock downs. Cartagena reopened beaches anyway now back till 6 PM which they haven't done since before the pandemic. I spent my share of time at the beach, over the years used Tony and FAO for their tarpa and chairs but I really can't see which one is worse on scamming and mooching any more. I got a roped in cabana from Pedro the last month or so I was there, he charged 20 mill pesos for two chairs and the cabana without ever asking for anything. He is in same area as Tony just without the scams. (in front of the coast guard tower just west of Caliwood bar on the beach West of Kiosko 4) he also knows a lot of hot girls there as well. Pica de celula thing was in effect in Medellin and Cartagena while I was there, all you have to do is match the day of the month to your ids last number odd number odd day of the month, even number even day of the month I used driverse license or my passport card never carried my passport. I never got checked even one time in Cartagena while I was there. Girls were trying to get me to pay a minimum price which I never paid, if they asked for 200 k I said fine then we are having sex two times, worked 100 percent of the time. Real life Hunger games is in effect for Colombia is no other way to describe it, the 3 months I spent in Botero Plaza and i3 months and Cartagena people are desperate, things I witnessed in Botero was shocking. Cartagena the girls are carrying ambien in their purses to spike your drink and help themselves to your things after you pass out. Mar why Sol hotel in bocagrange a good love hotel in a piinch El Viajero next to LDV much nicer and cheaper. Table to yourself in LDV 100 mill with bucket of beers, girls go in and out of the bars continuously bar hopping looking for customers. No real need to go different bars as they all go to all themselves. Mirador del Laguito is chica friendly now, I had friends staying there, it was never easy there before, the dozen or so times I have stayed there. 2 PM is good time to be at Playa Hollywood, girls at the Kiosko 4 Caliwood section and at the next bar Kiosko 3 to the West past coast guard tower. I usually had a cabana on the water so I could see what was hanging out at Kiosko 4 without moving from my beach chair. Hopped out on Avianca to SDQ but made a mistake, I should have talked Copa out of Medellin as the price was only 200 dollars.
