Bogota Reports

[Stl24]

Thanks for the info! Would you recommend walking the streets and picking a lady from the options standing out from of their buildings, hit up the strip clubs, or hit up the casas / spas?

I'll likely do some combination of all three. I figured I'd see what you (and everyone else) thought of those three different options.

I'm also curious how easy / difficult it is to bring back women to your hotel. I'm staying in a room with a jacuzzi / hot tub and I'd like to have some fun back there (unless anyone has strict points on why not to do this). I understand the importance of being safe and I have excellent situational awareness.

Thanks in advance everyone!

Living near Santa Fe Redlight area it is so easy to find super hot girls safely -- I have been doing it for 10+ years-.

If you like banging SGs Santa Fe is Fantastic-- you can find Hot Quality safe girls easily and pre qualify them for more expensive dates-.

Of course-- I don't think all guys can do this-- You have to have good Spanish, interpersonal skills and emotional intellegence-- Good Luck.

Hey all, it's been a year since I was down there and have an upcoming trip going back in a couple of weeks. Cannot wait. This will be the 4th time in Bogota. Last time I was there, Fiebre and Troya were the pick of the clubs with Antonis a close 3rd followed by Venus being the one where you could find a diamond in the rough. Paisas and Texas were crap then. I'm guessing it's all still the same? Beers and water still a standard 10 k? I believe there was a club that had just opened across from Troya, right next to Venus on the Venus side of the street (pink pussycat or something or maybe I'm completely wrong on the name) but is that one any good yet??

With $85 entry charge imposed on visitors from Canada, it is going to be expensive to visit Colombia multiple times in a year.

Does Colombia offer multiple entry visas good for few years?

I agree! I might go less and stay longer, or explore other countries. I went 4 times in 2023, but only paid the last visit. Adding an extra $340 a year for nothing, just because Colombia is being vengeful towards our government is ridiculous to me. Why am I being penalized even more for spending money in Colombia. Flights are much more now too.

I know $340 is not a fortune, but it is my money.

I'm splitting my time between Bogota and Medellin and I am looking for recommendations on the best / safest places to find the ladies. Planning on staying at Tequendama Suites and Hotel. I'm not trying to nickel and dime things and I'd rather pay a little more for convenience and safety so if anyone has suggestions on places to visit I'd appreciate it. I prefer strip clubs (if they are reasonably safe) and "spa's" where I get to pick from a lineup.

No negative or sarcastic comments necessary as we are all just trying to be safe and share helpful information.

Thanks in advance!

There is a lot being said about paying girls for their services. What is absolutely true is that the average American visiting Colombia is driving the market upwards. A lot of it is down to the laziness and arrogance of wanting to only pay in USD. The girls see the USD and start pricing in USD which basically ruins it for everyone else. I know this from first hand from several girls in Bogota and Cartagena. Medellin is bound to be the same. The other thing is that a lot of gringos cannot speak a word of Spanish so they cannot barter for a good price and instead just settle for whatever the girl says. Back in 2019, girls were doing overnights for 400.000 COP and now they are demanding 200 USD min, but price in USD.

Do us all a favour, use local currency and be a bit more aware of the fact that you are in Colombia and not the US, so do not try to compare the two markets. One of the reasons why guys like punting in Colombia is because of the amazing value. The moment you start offering USD, you ruin it for everyone else.

What I was saying is that most pharmacies will sell you anything you ask for even if it is prescription only and you don't have a prescription. I've even been able to by opiate pain killers (hydrocodon) brand name dolex from just about any pharmacy in Medellin without a prescription eventhough it clearly says on the box "requiere receta medica".

Viagra (sildenafil) and Cialis (Taldalafil) are available in abundance without a prescription and for less than a dollar a pill. Quality generics are available from brands such as MK, Genfar, AG, and La Sante (the cheapest generic).

Also antibiotics such as azythromycin, doxycycline, antivirals such as valacyclovir, I have even ordered those thru rappi and had them delivered to me. Never once was I asked for a prescription eventhough they require a prescription. You just need the cash (efectivo).

Not sure if they have locations in Bogota but if you're ever in Medellin I recommend using this pharmacy Todo Drogas (see attached photo).

At many of the pharmacies in the SF area You can get pain killers like Codiene, Tramadol, for so cheap a bottle of Tramadol drops is 7 mil and the codeien iis. 30 a pill.

And antibiotics -- listed above-- very economical--I pay about. 55 for 50 MG Viagra -- also there is a great deal on 5 MG generic Cialis. Or 20 MG if you like-.

Also Testoviron in a pre-loaded syring 250 MG is about $9-.

All without a pressciption-- Have a Better one!!

Right. So she asks 200 k, that is $52 dollars and change today. So you offer her $50 and she takes it? If so, yep, you win. But if she asks 200 k and you offer her 150 k she might take that. Anyway. I think that lots of them have a good idea of the current exchange rate, and if not they probably won't want dollars anyway. But all moot point to me. I certainly can't offer Canadian dollars, not even in the US. No one has any idea and they simply refuse. Which I understand. Anyway, the whole thing with US dollars just seems like arrogance to me.

They can't spend it anywhere, and there's a huge glut of USD on the market right now due to Colombias #1 export being pushed so heavily, so they will have to wait in line at a money exchange rate to get a real shitty rate for it.

This means that. If they're not utter morons. They HAVE to charge a premium to accept those USD. It's a lose / lose really.

Just use the ATMs to get COP.

What noone seems to be mentioning here is you can still negotiate the price you want to pay in pesos then proceed to pay in the equivalent dollars. Don't bring only 100 dollar bills. Bring a bunch of 50 dollar bills and some 20's. Let the girls go exchange it. If a Casa girl quotes 120 k plus 80 k adicional for BBBJ. Give her a 50 dollar bill. Not rocket science.

If a centro girl quotes 80 k give her a 20 dollar bill. Lose way less money that way.

Let's see if am comprehending you right, in this post you say that you have never paid in US Dollars anywhere:

I have never paid in dollars anywhere!

However in your previous post from Yesterday you stated that you recommend "going back to the USD" in other words, paying in dollars.

I recommend going back to USD, until the exchange rate goes back up.

So you are recommending to people who read ISG that they should do something that you claim that you yourself have never done?

How is this not giving bad advice? You should atleast have experience with something before you recommend others to do it. Paying for anything in Colombia with USD is not going to save anyone any money and it is not cheaper than using COP.

[Prelude141]

First of all I've been going to Colombia longer than you have been alive, so I believe you have a lot of posts with limited knowledge. I have never paid in dollars anywhere! Or 400 600 cop. I have a list of favorites, non pros who until this year never even mentioned the high prices YOU Medellin squarters brought to Bogota. I only mentioned the cost of changing dollars to cop and the exchange rate they rip you off for. You really need to brush up on you reading comprehension, I said I have always paid in local currencies for the last 30 years. So if the knuckle heads who pay these girls 400 k and you Medellin guys continue doing it then AND ONLY THEN is it better to pay 100 USD than go through the exchange bull shit and pay 100 USD which after all the exchange bullshit shakes out to be around 3500 to a dollar for the guys like you who are paying hard core prepagos 400 and 500 in Medellin and bringing that shit here to Bogota. Pay attention now, stay with me on this. I SAID THEY PAY THESES GIRLS 400/500 cop not me, never have and never will. And I don't fuck hard core pros either like you and some others feed on. Now go get your shine box.

No need to be defensive. You pay too much and you know it. I remind you that the min legal wage in CO is 1 160 000 cop. That means that at the rate you pay, 2 sessions covers 1 month of basic salary. In no other country I visited, the ratio rato out of basic salary is so unfavorable. Bottom line, the usual 100 k cop 250 k cop remain largely well paid. Ideally price being below 100 k. There is a reason why locals pays low prices. You, you just contribute to messing up the market for local people and mindful foreigners. Rest assured that you are not the only culprit, others gringos have done that in MDE and Cartagena and then complaint endlessly on this same board. After the market is ruined, they move to another country. Thanks very much.
