  1. I'm doing my first solo trip to Bogota before meeting a friend in Medellin. My plan is to meet a few sex workers who I've found through one of the agency recommendations here. Yes, I know this isn't recommended but I'll take several precautions and accept the risk. One issue is I can't find any place to stay where I can discreetly bring them back to. AirBnB makes it really hard to see which buildings have doormen and which have no guest policies. As far as I can tell from reading here and elsewhere, most hotels don't allow guests at all and if they do they have to register with the front desk and you have to pay an extra fee. This isn't ideal, I'd like somewhere that isn't so strict or at least a place I can walk up with them to without being bothered. There are so few houses available for rent in the city. I have a flexible budget and every reasonably nice house is on a gated street with its own security guard... so the exact same issue. I'm just trying to hookup with some guys discreetly. Are there any options other than motels? I've read a ton of threads here and feel like I may be missing something obvious.
  2. During my time in Bogota, I have made the following observations: 1. Colombians seem to be more interested in condoms than Brazilians. I’m guessing Colombia does not handout free PrEP to anyone that wants it, correct? 2. The tocos at Leono Birria are delicious.
  3. I just got back from Colombia and yes there is a strong preference for condoms in Bogota and Medellin. Maybe a third of the guys I contacted lost interest or wanted some exorbitant price (1 million pesos) to fuck without one. A few others were mollified once I showed them my PREP / DoxyPEP bottles. One guy I met up with on Grindr said that it's very difficult for Colombians to access PREP and he said it was unusual to meet Colombian guys who were taking it.
  4. Mompóx is one of my favourites, but a long trip by car. Feel free to DM me and I can discuss — have driven down to Mompóx from Cartagena and from Tolú. If you want something different, I suspect you would enjoy Bogotá scene over Medellin simply because Bogotá is in your face while Medellin takes a bit to figure out. Just pack for cooler nights. i have been spending my winters here in Medellin for the past 7 years (here now) so feel free to send me specific questions and I will try to answer quickly.
  5. Yeah i have a lot of friends from Colombia, mostly from Medellin, some from Bogota, & a couple suggested Tayrona but I think its too far for this trip since we'll mostly be based out of ctg and not bq, & frankly i dont feel motivated enough haha. The beaches look beautiful, & that sounds hot, but I can find plenty of beach action in the summer in new england
  6. the flight isnt booked, just a cancel-able hotel. Id appreciate any insights, as I just wrote in another reply im thinking of flying us to Bogota instead and adding an extra night, because it seems early in the week will be quiet in Quilla, but also to get to see a different side of Colombia outside the caribbean. But im open to all possibilities, if youre willing to share
  7. I think its just a little too far, doesnt have as many international flights either, Barranquilla is easy to fly out of & reach from CTG. Im also considering just adding an extra day & flying down to Bogota instead for 3 nights because i think a lot of the nightlife in bq will be closed early in the week
  8. I will be traveling to Bogotá and Medellín with my boyfriend soon. While in Colombia, we want to visit a bathhouse. Babylon Baths in Bogotá appears to be exactly what we are looking for (clean, modern, big, etc.) but I see that it is no longer open. Is there something similar in Bogotá or Medellín that is still open? Advice on what times are best to go would also be welcome. We also enjoy massage while on vacation. If anyone out there would care to share some recommendations for where to get a massage in Bogotá or Medellín that would be welcome too.
  9. Hotels: Mercure BH Zona Financiera and Holiday Inn Exp. & Suites Bogota. Airbnb: just message the host before you and ask if visitors are allowed. Most will reply that it is no issue even with doormen/security at the front desk/entrance. Local guys have no issue showing ID to security staff to visit you; it is entirely normal.
  10. Last time I went, didn't pay tax at Embassy Suites Bogota. I've booked Hampton Inn Medellin and in the confirmation, it shows IVA/VAT taxes of 19%. In looking online, it seems there are hotels or hotel workers that try to charge it to tourists that are exempt from this tax and pocket it. Any experience with this? Also, I'm not going until May and I've been going into a cam site, this is addicting, lol
  11. I book direct on the Hilton site, I get industry rates...Medellin hotel shows taxes, Bogota doesn't..
  12. Novarunner, if u r up to it - like maump - please ask Bogota providers if they'd like u to share contact details with wider clientle...
  13. I don’t think I ever posted anything but I started reading the gay Thailand forum when I was traveling to SE Asia in my late 20’s. A massage after a 16 hour flight is a necessity and if it can be done by a hot guy that is also good with playing with my dick, that’s even better. Go go bar etiquette was not part of my upbringing so I needed to learn about that somewhere too as well. Do I have a point? No, not really other than that I suspect the average age of the readership here might be somewhat less than you suggest. Even if you do happen to be a decent looking 28 year old and meeting other decent looking 28 year olds at DJ Station on Saturday night in Bangkok is an option, that takes effort which might be more than you can muster after a 16 hour flight. It also could be Wednesday and DJ Station is closed. Maybe I’m unique but I suspect not. Bogota has been fun and I’m glad I’m here - I wanted to try something different - but I miss Rio. There is a lot to be said for staring at the ocean while drinking caipirinhas and being able to speak the language somewhat.
  14. I have unfortunately left my thirties behind which raises an interesting point…. Before I left my thirties behind, I had a day to kill in Paris. I tried Grindr to find a friend but not speaking French made things difficult so I went to Sun City which is, well, similar to Babylon before it closed but in Paris. Sun City was filled with hot 20-somethings and there wasn’t much talking going on so, initially, I was very excited. My excitement faded after about half an hour though when it became clear very few people there were interested in what I had to offer. My theory is that part of the human brain is wired for evolutionary reasons to fuck things that are new and different. If you name a white European country, chances are I have an ancestor from there which is the long way of saying that I don’t qualify as new and different in Paris but that here in Bogota there just aren’t all that many Irish-English-French-German-Dutch-Nordic guys so you’re stuck with me if that’s what gets you hard. And, since part of the human brain is also wired to fuck hot young guys with six packs and sexy tattoos and gorgeous, thick, straight (curved is a huge turn off for me which bothers me and I feel badly about because it’s not like they have any control over that but I digress) uncut cocks, this works out well for me. My friend may have said Americans are hot yesterday but I think that what he meant was that different is hot. This is of course just a theory so I will continue to conduct additional research.
  15. I visited Complices Spa in Bogota this evening which is a Thursday. The place was filed with hot 20-somethings, most of which were interested in playing with me even though they are about two-thirds my age and my Spanish is abysmal. One guy told me Colombians think Americans are hot or, at least that is what I think he said. For so many different reasons, that absolutely should not be a thing (and may not be since his English was on par with my Spanish) but, in any case, he had a sexy tattoo of a small bird on his chest, abs and a really nice uncut cock so I let him (and others) fuck me. The sexy underwear or nude dress code does take some getting used to and probably isn’t for everyone but I adapted and got into it pretty quickly. I’m told Sunday afternoons/evenings are also good.
  16. Change of plans....I got hooked on Colombia webcam sites....going to Bogota and Medellin with 1 night in Panama on my way to the US. Got a one way ticket on Copa from Medellin to Panama, overnight then Panama to Boston for $205 usd.....cheaper flights for me to take this trip than to go to the US from Mexico directly 😲
  17. Spending next week in Colombia - half in Bogota, half in Medellin. Hoping to get some good intel from anyone who might have visited recently. Looks like many of these threads are years old and the info is probably out of date. I've been to both cities before and had some really good luck on Grindr and Mileroticos. Unfortunately I did have one terrible experience though. I don't feel comfortable sharing the specifics here, but I learned to watch for warning signs for future encounters. Make sure profiles have a face and legit social media. Would love to get some recommendations for guys to spend time with... and warnings for anyone I should avoid. Mostly into twinks and muscle twinks. Once they hit bodybuilder phase, I'm out. In Bogota, I'm planning to head to Garage. I went once to Gigolo House (I think that's where I went... 3 levels place?) but had no idea how things work there and I speak only a little Spanish. Then probably Theatron. In Medellin, seems like the scene is all online but if you know of a good spot, would love to check it out. Reply here or in a private message if you prefer. I'll be checking in a few times before I fly.
  18. I am planning a short trip to Colombia, first time ever, with my husband and trying to decide between Cartagena (better for my husband as it would be a beach hotel with just some trips into town for sex), Medellin (my favorite, mostly sex) or Bogota (sex and a bit of visiting, I guess). The key decision will be based on the best places where you can find hot guys, choose among the merchandise, and invite them to come to a bedroom (right there, to a love hotel, or to our hotel) for an hour. So, with these esteemed member's help, can we list the clubs / bars / saunas etc. where we can choose among many guys and make a monetary offer to them? Medellin: I only know of Club Tobi. Any other? Bogota: Is Theatron a place were we can buy young trade? Or is it just a gay club where 45-year-olds with not much muscle are going to be ignored? Cartagena: Anything there? Are some of the many gay bars in the San Diego/Getsemani area for trade? Also open to Baranquila info, if recommended. PS: I know that grindr will be great, but we are looking to be able to select "on sight".
  19. Now I'm in the middle of trying to make a decision to go to Bogota or Santo Domingo.....was in Bogota last year haven't been to SDQ in AGES. My good friend said if I go to Colombia, he'd try to go or I go alone to Santo Domingo....decisions, decisions. I get industry rates at Hilton branded hotels....in SDQ they're about 15 mins outside of the colonial zone in BOG- located all over.... This is for the end of April.. Edit: I couldn't decide, so I'm going to both places and threw in a night in Panama for good luck!
  20. Mercure have 3 different hotels in Bogota : Calle 100, BH Retiro and BH Zona Financiera Which of them is visitors friendly?
  21. I’m planning on going for a week, splitting my time between Bogotá and Medellín, (reluctantly I guess I will have to defer Cucuta, which sounds like a Shangri-la, albeit a lawless one) As to where to spend the weekend, It seems that there are particular advantages to Bogota, namely because of the strippers at Theatron.(although reports seem quite mixed whether that will get me anywhere other than horny🤷‍♂️) is it still the case that they are there only Saturday 11-2? Or are they around before, but it’s just not busy? (In Brazil I love to arrive early to the saunas when there are few clients and the boys are “fresh”) if that is the case that the Theatron strippers are only Saturday, it is the Gigolo for Friday night? Google lists the hours as 8-1, correct? Is the selection the same at say 8:30 as at 11? Would it also be a good idea on Saturday to begin with the gigolo and then proceeded to Theatron? Despite the many admonitions to make online contacts with cam boys in advance I regrettably don’t have the attention span required, especially since I don’t find the chatting appealing, or bate-ing, for that matter (if it did I probably would be such a slut). I’m a little worried that, as a result, I won’t be giving Colombia its fair chance (kind of like going to Brazil without garotoscomlocal)
  22. i am exactly the opposite. i think that Brasil is better. or let's say, you can compare boys in both countries. same quality and easy aproach. however, from tourist point brazil is much reacher. i love their beaches. salvador, manaus or iguacu falls are better then cartagena, bogota, santa marta, medellin and tayrona park. i have not been to cali. it is on my to do list.
  23. Ngn I was there four times in January, sadly it was nothing like the selection at St Moritz in Bogota. It's a nice sauna but relatively quiet and not many working guys on the days I went. A Friday evening was the only time there were more than a few people there.
  24. Hey. As a young retiree, I've been to Colombia several times this year, with a view to perhaps settling there for the long term (looking for a one year place to rent will be the goal for my january trip) for boys of course, weather during European winters and the way of life. I'm going back in a few days, for some weeks. I have multiple and anonymous partners, both paid and unpaid. I'm taking PrEP but on my first trip this year (on the last few days, hopefully) I got an STI.😱 For the trip that followed, I drastically reduced the number of my partners... It's not the first time I've had one (usually one of the three : syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea), I know quickly because I usually have strong symptoms that I quickly recognise as it's always in the throat. For the antibiotic treatment to work, you need to know what the STI is. Having an STI is one thing but being positive and contaminate other guys is another, so testing is essential. In my country / city testing is easy, quick and free of charge for sex workers (includind foreigners) and LGBT people. I was wondering if there were any places in Bogota where to get tested anonymously (especially for strangers with a low level in spanish language, let's say A2-), discreet, free of charge or not and treated if positive. If not, does anyone know how STD testing and treatments work in Bogota? At what cost approx? A big thank you.
  25. When I went to Colombia in mid-January there was one station in the Bogota airport's customs hall with a credit card handset designated for Canadians to pay the fee. But there wasn't any kind of notice posted about it. So after a longish wait to get to the front of the line, I realized I could have just gone directly to that station where there would have been a short wait or no wait at all to clear customs. As you walk into the hall, it's the very last station on the left hand side.
