Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=WiltTheStilt; 1391397]Bart, can you elaborate here? Mexico is now open to Colombians? They can travel there without a visa? What requirements are there? I had considered taking a lady friend to Cancun as well but figured it would be a headache. We are roughly the same age and have loads of photos together, although we are more fuck buddies than relationship partners.

Thank you in advance.[/QUOTE]Mex and Costa Rica added to the list of visa free [you do not need visa before arrival, visa issued on arrival] as of Dec 2012. Interesting post by Senor G after your post, I guess my novia and I had better be prepared for an interrogation [thanks for the 'heads up' Senor G]! RE San Andres, my novia and I have visited to San Andres, I am always amazed at how many colombianas from landlocked MDE swim like fish, I could not keep her out of the "Sea of 7 Colors"

Wow 3 negative reports about Mexican travel with Colombianas, has anyone been there with a chica / novia and entered hassle free?

Costa Rica has not joined the Pacific Alliance and still requires a visa from Colombians. They are still just observers.

Remember the problem is with DAS in Colombia and not in Mexico. The girls traveling to Cancun were stopped in Medellin

[QUOTE=Voyajer1;1391584]I would recommend anyone traveling to avoid Cancun at all costs. It doesn't matter if you have a wedding band on and have a marriage licence. Their custom officials are addicted to screwing up foreigner's holidays. I went there once on a transfer flight only and those MF'ers caused me and my travel companion a missed flight that was totally unnecessary. They seem very interested in going through your valuables because you don't fit their profile as to what a tourist should be or look like? I am a frequent, frequent traveler and highly experienced in the ins and outs of travel. After causing me such major problems and creating my flight quagmire, I vowed to never return to that country for any reason whatsoever, and I haven't despite living within driving distance of that hell hole, Mexico. Why would anyone travel by air to that toilet hole is beyond me. Their immigration officials have "NEVER" been trained in customer service and are out to screw good natured people out of whatever they can get their hands out of. My personal opinion, they are just as corrupt as the average "Policeman" in the street trying to get a little propina on the side from tourists by phucking with them. Mexico is a mess and I don't recommend to anyone with any sense to go even to their best resort cities. They have no idea how to be hospitable to anyone even their bread and butter "tourists". The State Department has posted several travel warnings to Mexico. They should IMHO post a warning also about their retarded customs and immigration personnel.[/QUOTE]I have been going to Cancun for years and now about every two or three months. The airport sucks because there is no United or Copa lounge but it has free wifi. I would take it every single day over LAX. I have never had a problem. I have had my luggage pilfered through many times in Costa rica and secondary searched a half dozen times at LAX, nothing bad in Cancun. Just different experiences.

[QUOTE=Bart1;1391645]Wow 3 negative reports about Mexican travel with Colombianas, has anyone been there with a chica / novia and entered hassle free?[/QUOTE]Why not just take them to San Andres, Providencia, Playa Baru etc. There really is no need to take them out of their own country as there are places just as nice as Cancun right in their own country.

[QUOTE=Senor G;1391692]Calling bullshit, as the problem was in Mexico, because I was there and went through it. I also find it very hard to believe you were in Mexico on 4 occasions with girls from Colombia, as that does not even make any sense. I could see it one or two times as a vacation with a special girl or two, but 4 times in 4 months. If others want to believe this bullshit that is on them, but not me.[/QUOTE]The problem is with Cancun, Mexico immigration. They commented that these girls did not fit the tourist profile.

The issue wasn't in Medellin. Although its not uncommon for girls to be grilled both leaving and arriving.

As far as 4 times goes in 4 months, I know lots of guys with enough money and mile points to do this. I'm in no position to call bullshit on anyone based on just that. But I'm telling you the issue is Mexico immigracion. What someone wrote earlier this morning scared me into never wanting to go.

[QUOTE=Manizales911;1391703]Why not just take them to San Andres, Providencia, Playa Baru etc. There really is no need to take them out of their own country as there are places just as nice as Cancun right in their own country.[/QUOTE]Some of you are kind of missing the point, Cancun has direct flights from alot of destinations in the USA that are 200 bucks round trip and you are there in 3 hours from my airport. I could go to Cancun, fly a girl in stay at a fancy AI and still be cheaper than going to Cartagena, Baru or San Andreas .

I fly sand to the beach in Cartagena almost every trip, to the USA but I haven't in 4 years now. Logistically flying girls into any destination is a fucking nightmare and I have been waiting for someone else to be the guinea pig into Cancun. Flying girls from Colombia to the USA on a tourist Visa and to the DR they require they have the money to support their trip and count the money upon entry in alot of cases, so your not only the out the airfare you have to front them another 1000 bucks and hope they don't go on a suitcase buying spree with your money before they come.

Cancun Vs Colombia, some guys are completely bored of Colombia ( put me in that category) . San Andreas is a fucking nightmare to fly into from the USA Spirit to Medellin then fly out but still is pain in the ass.

On another note those Colombian girls are mobile as hell flying places, I know one of the girls that got turned around in Mexico, but you watch those Facebook pages there is alot of hoes in the Bahamas, Cancun, Mexico, and Peru, somebody is flying them around.

Dulce Jesus Mio move right next to Mangos now?

San Andres is great but if I was a bit younger I could jog around the whole island in a day. Tolu and the area around there is one of our favorites. I thought the adventure was in the travel to new places, I take you to task on your quote "there is no need to take them out of their own country". My novia is drop dead gorgeous and I am considerably older than her mother, so when she tells me she would love to go to Mexico I book tickets. Ps. Copa has the best connections I have found so far, only 90 minutes in Panama, total travel time MDE to CUN 5 hours. $691 USD rtn per person booked 3 wks ahead

You don't know shit. Not everyone works at Walmart dipshit. Bbrocs I left your mini finca last Monday. I was there in jan too if you remember before going to Cancun then also. You just commented on my fotos. So you know who I am and you can see the Cancun fotos from the last trips with the paisas. We have never had problems and I have met my novia at my hotel en Cancun, without problem.

I have no experience trying to take a colombiana to mexico but I wonder how or why they even give a f*ck what your relationship is with your travel companion. What was the point of changing the law to say that ALL colombian passport holders no longer need a visa to travel to mexico if they're going to ask a bunch of personal questions at the airport and pick and choose who can get in and who can't?

If they tried to grill me at the airport I'd tell them here's my passport, here's my round trip ticket, and that's all you need to f*cking know. What f*cking difference does it make if she's my friend / f*ckbuddy / wife?

[QUOTE=Senor G;1391692]Calling bullshit, as the problem was in Mexico, because I was there and went through it.[/QUOTE]So when you say you went through it, the 4 girls were flying solo to meet their Canadian friend in Cancun. You were not with them. So let's say you were waiting with N. On the mexico side of customs waiting. Did you ever see them? No. So what exactly did you see?

[QUOTE=Hillbilly69;1391789]Dulce Jesus Mio move right next to Mangos now?[/QUOTE]Speaking of Dulce Jesus Mio, can anyone comment on what this place is exactly? Passed by it during the day on the way back to Poblado from El Centro (I believe it was when we went to Tesoro mall). Think I may have also passed by it at night on the way to La Isla. I've seen pictures where you can [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] inside of cartoon characters' mouths (toilet).

Is this a good place to take a chica to for dancing and drinking (I'm already assuming that its not good for trying to meet chicas given that most of them travel in mixed groups of guys and gals)?
