Someone will get stabbed and/or likely end up dead.

A bunch of ignorant (no offense) gringos going into a country like Colombia with the intent of getting drunk, doing drugs, and sleeping with prostitutes - hey, what could go wrong?

Edit: The RVF deadpool is now open.

Why are you all giving this guy information? Twenty guys for a bachelor party is exactly the kind of thing that ruins a place for guys like me and most of you that generally roll solo and quietly go about our business. Seriously this guy should be banned not helped.

Love Zep and I think Plant's voice is fucking magical but honestly Mr. Plant, you have nothing to worry about. We're not rolling 20 deep to a bar or a club. We're from NYC, we hate cockfests just as much as the next guy and we come from the land of ratio where if we showed up with 20 guys, we better have at a minimum 50-60 girls with us or dropping $15-$20k on a table. We're not coming here to be obnoxious or mack on every girl within a 100ft radius and ruin people's time. We will most likely be going to strip clubs or day parties on the beaches (if they even have those). I read through the threads and I cringed every time reading about the drunks that fuck up people's game and make the night scene unbearable. Believe me, that's not who we are and definitely not what we want to do.

You recommend hotels over say a larger apartment/house type of setup?

For 20 guys, yeah. Last thing you want is for some idiot to invite a woman to your penthouse, while the rest of you are partying, and she drugs your friend and steals all your shit.

It happens.

That makes sense. Thanks for the tips, Linux. I definitely have more research to do and especially about Santa Fe.

1% chance this guy comes back from his sausagefest and posts the best and most detailed Colombia information on the forum or anywhere else. I'm not sure it would even be needed at this point. O.P., have you contacted the Hotel Windsor in Barranquilla to try to reserve their rooftop bar for your bachelor party? I heard that place is a real hot spot.

I will definitely provide a data sheet when with as much information as possible when I return. It could maybe be useful for larger groups that make the trip. I have not but I will definitely look into that. Thanks.

I was also thinking about this...it could be a great opportunity for those entrepreneurs in the area that would maybe want to help facilitate group functions such as bachelor parties or whatever in the future. Oversee and/or manage the trip once a group lands in Colombia. Get paid $100+ USD each day for the length of the trip (or what you feel your time and expertise is worth), have food, booze, etc. covered by the group, possibly even throw in a free bed too. All you have to do is set up some form of an itinerary (doesn't have to be set in stone), help with party favors and whatnot and come along for the fun. Great way to network and make some money. Think of it as a fucked up vacation away from your vacation. Word of mouth in the states will spread just like we're coming to Colombia because a good friend of ours went and met this Madame, now she'll possibly be making money from us all because our friends had an amazing time. I know you guys want to limit the gringo tourist factor but with groups, you don't have to take them to YOUR most frequented spots. You can still maintain a low profile and not end up being associated with the fucked up gringos. Just a thought.

OP to repay everyone for the advice, please tell us when and where you decide on - so we can avoid it like the plague!!

I'll definitely be looking forward to the report after though, you'll have an awesome time but there's no chance something won't go horribly/hilariously wrong at some point ...

I definitely have a lot more to research and I do appreciate everyone's feedback. Once we have more details hashed out, I will inform everyone when and where we will be so you can avoid or possibly meet up. I'm not taking any of this lightly and I'm certainly concerned about the risk factors so thank you guys for continuously pointing it out because sometimes we tend to forget.

^If I were to do this, I'd want $100USD/day for each guy I was overseeing, so $2000/day. Like I say, I've done this type of thing before on a smaller scale and it just isn't worth the risk and hassle.

Dude, I know you're reading over the threads and watching videos online, envisaging an awesome time with big booty Colombian bitches, piles of cocaine and awesome beaches but trust me, you will be disappointed. I'm mostly joking when I recommend going to Santa Fe on here, its not for the faint of heart, Linux wasn't joking when he said I almost got knifed by a crack head there, I've also been drugged and robbed by whores down there so have a few other guys on here.

Watch the first 5:00 of this video:

That's barrio Sante Fe, does it seem like a nice place? See how shitty the sidewalks and buildings look, see all the graffiti, see the garbage in the streets? Notice the color of the sky, grey and overcast which is a typical day in Bogota where the day time high is usually about 18 degrees (65F), look the the clothes that the normal people are wearing in the afternoon. Now imagine that place at night, trust me its a fucking zoo with base heads everywhere, tranny whores and groups of pre-teen kids huffing gas from plastic bags.

Of course it isn't all that bad if you go straight into the strip club:

Colombia can be a safe place to travel, lots of guys on here have been there and haven't had any problems, I've had relatively few problems there considering the amount of time that I've spent in the country over the years. The only times I've gotten in trouble and this goes for the other guys too is when we've been out partying and got too drunk and/or were fucking around with drugs and skanky women (pros and non-pros). That's why I just can't recommend a trip like this.

Colin from Expat Chronicles already did this type of thing, he had a business called Bogota Brothel Tours and I read his book about it, he shut it down because its just too risky.

[Travesty]

Please don't bring that many horny guys to Colombia.

Just go solo and never tell anyone like a champion, instead of like some English mutt.

Be smooth.

That blonde sitting on the green chair in the first video image....really makes me rethink my thoughts on p4p.

Hahaha I can only imagine what that old white guy in the suit was doing at Bar Shangay. That strip club looks pretty decent but fuck man, you've definitely raised some real concerns and issues. I could definitely see doing that deal with you for at least 1 of the days we're there but again, you've brought up several good points and I appreciate you speaking the truth. Pussy will blind you. Gonna need to take some time and figure things out.

Shit men this video of the real hookers of Bogota remember me sometimes the streets of Paris in the midnight around Place Clichy and Pigalle with shitty people hanging out around full of street scammers and hustlers ...

Sorry for the off topic ...

[scotian]

I know what you mean but Pigalle is worse! I went into my first strip club ever there when I was 17 back in 1999 and was nearly scammed out of a lot of money by two whores who had drinks that each cost $100 or something insane like that, I ran the fuck out of that place. At least in Bogota the strip clubs won't rip you off and are relatively safe inside, its only until you step outside the door that you have to worry about getting stabbed in the head. One of these days I'm going to learn my lesson and stop going to these shit holes but until then its 10 10 10 20s on your titties bitch.

Hahaha, Houston the city. It has a ton of wealthy Venezuelans and Mexicans (Mexico City and Monterrey mostly) who come here as a temp refugees.

I wouldn't do this no matter how much you're paying. There are foreigners doing this in Colombia; a couple of them have been killed recently in Medellin.

No matter how much you think you guys will be under control and won't have any problems, there are 20 guys who will be taking drugs/drinking and at least one of them is going to fuck-up and get you guys in trouble. I'd reconsider the location if I were you.
