Sorry for late response, I arrive in Medellín on Aug 2 and will find time to do an update on current (2023) sauna listings at some point during this trip.

has anyone experiences with "escortsbuk" ?
Yes, professional service and hassle-free. Just know that you are paying much higher than the standard rate in Colombia, but most of their scorts speak reasonable English, if that is a plus for you.

I am planning a trip in a couple of months and looked at hotel prices, prices are much more higher than my last visit in November-December last year in some cases almost doubled.
It is true. Medellín is seeing unprecedented demand for tourism and inflation is a serious problem. Both housing costs and food prices have increased exponentially in the past 12 months and it is pricing many Colombians out of the market as more foreigners choose the city as their location for nomadic living and longer term residency. Nearby Envigado and Rionegro have seen an explosion in population as many choose to leave the city.
The mayor´s office is acutely aware of the issue and are working on new residency taxes for foreigners. But that will take time. The locals had taken to calling El Poblado Medallork or Gringo Terra (like Inglaterra) this spring, and you will see increasing signs of frustration from the locals who feel that they are losing their own city.

Will quickly add that the hotels will NOT have any issue with your guest for the week (Colombian or otherwise) if registered with a valid cédula civil. What they are concerned about is using the premises for multiple sexual encounters which indicates prostitution which carries penalties for the property. Have posted about this before. So most hotels and buildings want to colour within the lines in Medellín and avoid issues with police -- like an inspection of guest visitor logs which hotels keep by law.
My suggestion (for all travellers to Medellín) is to treat your security guard (vigilante) with great respect -- offer them a coffee, an empanda, hell, buy them lunch if you are getting food -- and most of them will look out for you and not report what you are up to with guests. Most Paisas are fine with gay visitors but don't piss them off and you should be just fine.

The annual Medellín mega-event takes place from 28 July to 7 August with the annual Desfile des los silleteros -- the incredible flower displays carried by local Paisas on their backs.
The programming is outlined here (EN) https://www.medellinadvisors.com/la-feria-de-las-flores/
Always LOTS happening in the city during the Feria, and I am always happy to be back with my Paisa family.
See you then.

Strippers are generally not the main theme in Colombian clubs. Places like Gigolo House and Garage (both Bogotá) are stripper bars where the boys will do a single dance at the end of their stage obligation fully erect. Most then walk the audience offering up a feel for tips. Not sure if that fits the bill for what you want.
Many clubs and saunas in the larger cities will bring in a feature stripper to do a 20 -30 minute show during an event. Again, depending on the space, these shows can be completely vanilla or full audience interaction up to penetration -- just depends on the venue and what the stripper has actually been hired to do.
So I would suggest just asking around at any of the local gay bars you hit up. Colombia has a LOT of private gay events that feature entertainment far wilder than what you find in the local bars. If you are up to it, you can apply to be a member of Angels Naked Party which runs a number of different events in Bogtotá y Medellín.
Good luck with your search.

I am trying to have my second expedition to Medellin this November if I can resist Rio's charms. Are you going to be around?
Unfortunately no. I like to get away for my birthday just before the holidays begin and will likely end up in PR this year. Back to Medalló in January 2024 if all goes well.

Since you specifically about about which city offer more chances to play...this is not a fair competition.
Medellín wins. No contest.
Cartagena is an historic city with a lot of tourists. It is on the coast and enjoys many months of sun. However it is a small city (about 400K residents) and many are transient, working in tourism jobs. It definitely has its charms, but you asked about sex and...you are going to need to be very fluent in the language and the culture to meet a lot of locals for sex. Not saying that it isn't there (trust -- there is a thriving gay scene) but most outsiders are not going to discover it.
Medellín is a metropolitan city of nearly 5 million inhabitant that is quite modern by Colombian standards and sees a lot of tourism. There are many pockets of gay interest around the city and there are lots of saunas/bars/discos/cruising spots to meet and hook up with other men that have been written up here extensively. It is known as the city "of the eternal springtime" for its mild but pleasant climate so don't expect tropical days by the pool. But the city has a far more dynamic scene and for newbies -- the locals are known far and wide for their sex positive attitude in Colombia. I won't bore you with tales of the many "straight" men I have had sex with in Medellín, just know that the potential for sex is very high in a city known for having extraordinarily good looking men. If you willing to throw a few buck down for the pleasure, I think you will find the selection is overwhelming.
As others have noted, Colombia does have challenges with English being relatively rare as a spoken language, so any language skills will greatly improve your chances. Good luck!

Ha, ha, google translated it as the hill of the six squares, but I get the impression it has a more nuanced meaning in this reference. For a future trip, is this a hike it's okay for a tourist to do alone on Sundays when it's busy. I'm asking because I was going to do a similar hike in Cali, but I read tourists shouldn't do it alone...I'm assuming for safety reasons.
You can absolutely do it alone. Best to go on weekends when the crowds are present, there will not be any safety issues. I would also say the same for El cerro de las tres cruces in Cali as well. Do plan to go early if the sun is out -- it gets very warm on the trails with almost no shade higher up. In s,ome sections, the natural steps have been washed out and that can be challenging. It is a workout but the payoff is worth it. The view is spectacular and you can see the entirety of the Aburra valley.

Social media ads being run by the Alcaldía de Medellín this summer, reminding people to be safe about hooking up with strangers.

So many of them, are they all regular gay saunas?
Yes, they all cater to gay men looking for sex. However the facilities differ between the properties. Sauna 55, Spartacus and Sauna Cruising are like a classic gay bath house. Did not have time to visit San Moritz but may consider it on my return. Medellin gets pretty worked up during La feria de las flores.

I'm looking for a personal trainer in Medellin as I would like to continue my muscle building workout plan. Any recommendations as to where I can find a PT or a bodybuilder with knowledge about steroids? I might be mistaken, but I read somwhere anabolic steroids are over the counter in Colombia.
Okay maybe I can guide you to what you need. There are loads of personal trainers in Medellín, but you are asking for a pretty specific need for bulk-muscle building. The best gym to explore that is Magnum Gym in Laureles. This is where the hardcore locals work out and you will see a few of the bulked up camboys here as well. They will know all about what supplements are available and where. It's located on Circular 75 at Carrera 75, just two blocks from Primer Parque de Laureles. I tried to read the exact address from the Google image but it has been removed.
Other option is Capital Fit Gym on Avenida Nutibara which bills itself as the mecca for bodybuilders in Medellín. I don't personally know anyone that trains here, but many claim it is quieter and more conducive to working out. The location is also super easy to get to. (Av. 80 #39-187, Laureles - Estadio, Medellín)
If your Spanish is up to it, I would call and organize your membership with a training session in advance. I do have a few personal trainers in my Medellín rolodex but as you are aware it is a very personal choice.
Regarding steroids and supplements: you will find that many prescribed drugs are freely accessible at the pharmacy counter without a prescription. However steroids are not something every pharmacy is going to stock, so you need to ask around to find a supply. I am not aware of any friends currently doing cycles, but will make some inquiries.
Good luck with your planning.

The entirety of the coffee region/eje cafetero is wonderful travel and just a 40 minute flight from Medellín downtown airport. Take a look at Pereira, Armenia, Pereira for a stay. All within easy travel to Salento or Filandia for coffee and urban excursions. Also look into the termales - natural hot springs attractions in the region. As stated, the scenery is spectacular and there is plenty of options for tours-hiking-things to see if you love stunning nature. Enjoy your trip!

If you are traveling to Colombia this week, or planning an internal flight within the country, be aware that Viva Air ceased operations today with no notice, leaving hundreds of thousands stranded in airports across Colombia and around Latin America and the USA (Miami). Today has been total chaos in Colombia as passengers attempted to get answers from Viva, who left their employees to fend off angry crowds with zero information about the status.
Other airlines like Avianca and LATAM have offered to transport ticket holders, creating additional delays and flight cancellations as ticket sales have been suspended while they try to clean up Viva's mess.
Updated March 23 - 2023
The merger between Avianca and Viva (which started this entire mess) was finally approved yesterday. No idea if Avianca intends to reintroduce budget fares via the Viva brand, but I was shocked to see a Viva plan take off at El Dorado - Bogotá yesterday. Stay tuned.

Hello.
I guess it's the same as on this report by @Peter Parker
Fares have increased since 2022.The "new" address is transversal 26 53 c-28.

This is correct as of March 2023. The business has moved to a new location further west in Galeras barrio (very close to the football stadium). Calle 57 will take you directly from Chapinero to the closest corner. This is a high'traffic and safe walking route until late in the evening. About 20 minutes walking distance.
They have a Telegram account where they will send you a more current and explicit listing of chicos or chicas depending on your needs.

I have talked about posting this for so long that it was overdue. Here is a current list of gay dance bars in Medellín. As always, things can change so check local listings before making plans.
Querida Bar
Calle 10 #43B – 61 Barrio El Poblado (one block west of Parque El Poblado)
Hours: Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday 8pm – midnight
Friday – Saturday 8pm – 4am
Climb the pink lit staircase of Querida and party with the young crowd of Paisa boys and girls (yup – attracts very young crowd) to Reggaeton, western Pop anthems, and crossover club hits. The place is loud, crowded and filled to the rafters each weekend. Special shows featuring a tribute to famous performers happen each weekend. Recent examples include Britney Spears, Karol G, Cher and Bad Bunny.
This is a classic Paisa rumba: beer, rum and aguardiente flow freely and dancing and cruising is the main focus of the night. Weekends feature go-go boys (and girls) while other nights feature elaborate drag shows.
Industry Club
Calle 26a #43f-72 (sector Apujarra)
Hours: Friday – Saturday 10pm – 4 am
some Sundays (on most holiday weekends)
Everyone eventually ends up at Industry and everyone has an opinion. Some love this place, other loathe it. Industry is the last classic gay dance club still standing in Medellín, packing in the seen-and-be-seen crowd each weekend. This is where you will see the best bodies in Medellín come to strip down and show off the results of many hours at the gym.
The crowd runs slightly older (25 – 40) as cover (25.000COP and up) and drink prices are higher than many other local options. Drinks run 12.000COP for beer, up to 180.000COP for whisky service. Drug use, mainly coke, is rampant and open throughout the club. Clutch your pearls as necessary.
The club contains two large dance rooms with different styles: the lower features reggaeton and classic Latin pop bangers, while the main room upstairs headlines electronic dance and club music. DJ’s are regularly featured in the main room. Go-go dancers and special shows are presented weekly. Check their Instagram page for weekly events.
While dancing is the ostensibly the main attraction, there is plenty of cruising and hooking up going on. The catwalk above the main dance floor is particularly active after 2am. Part of the fun is the late-night crowd outside the club, hanging around for food truck eats and last-chance hook ups.
Purple Club
Avenida 33 #78-107 (barrio Belén)
Hours: Friday – Saturday 10pm – 4 am
Purple is the reinvention of Laureles club Viva (RIP). This spot packs in the crowds each weekend for dancing and drag show, with the occasional special performer or stripper thrown in for good measure. Good range of age mixes here. Lots of varied programming, check their Instagram page for upcoming events.
The Purple Club is mostly groups out together for a night out so the ambience is very social. You will talk to dozens of people here most nights. Drinks are pricier than other options (10.000COP for beer up to 80.000COP for bottled rum). Tables require bottle purchase and a minimum spend dependant on group size. I have also heard complaints that solo patrons are often denied entry to the club so be forewarned.
After the nightly show, the club becomes a raging dance party until close. There is plenty of cruising, groping and making out happening after 1am, with lots of interest around the room.
Club Oráculo
Carrera 36 #8A-123 (barrio El Poblado)
Hours: Friday – Saturday 10pm – 4 am
some Sundays (on holiday weekends occasionally)
While technically advertised as a space for everyone, Oráculo, (known locally as ¡Oye! Culo) celebrates being queer with art and performances in a cozy dance space. This is not a huge club, but rather something more intimate and interesting. There are also two small rooms to chill out or just relax and chat away from the main room.
Weekly theme events include shows and performers that range from high-camp to erotic. There is a lot of thought put into each theme night that make for some terrific shows. Check their Instagram for upcoming events. After the performance, the space becomes a club with pounding reggaeton hits that pack the dancefloor until late. Good mix of clubgoers, but this one definitely leans younger and very balanced male | female | non-binary ratios.
Drinks run standard El Poblado pricing, with an excellent selection of cocktails on the menu (cocktail prices 24.000-40.000COP).

It is not like a Brazillian-style sauna. Another member wrote are really good write up on this spot -- it is the back of the same building where Phisicus Spa (Avenida 2 Norte) is located. Check the gay Colombia boards as I know a couple of members have posted good information about the Cali scene there.

If you are currently in Medellín then any time is good to visit as the city is in full party mode for Feria de las flores.
As noted in other discussions, the tradition in Colombia is to visit the saunas after work (6-8pm) or on the weekend afternoons. There will usually be a good crowd from 4pm onward. I plan to add to the Business listings and may visit this location on this trip.
