— About Exploring Colombia —
Colombia, a country which many only know because of it’s violent past, has been on my list since I went to South America for my first long-term trip in 2012. 6 Years later and with 5 weeks to spend it was finally time to properly explore my country number 9 on the continent.
For the first part of the trip I’ll be traveling with my mate David to the historical city of Cartagena, some picturesque Carribean islands and to the city of Medellin where we get to learn about the violent past and the transformation of the country. After a few days in the capital Bogota I’ll be joined by my good friend Stefan to learn salsa and take on some outdoor adventures in Cali before heading up to Santa Marta where we checkout the most beautiful beaches, float down rivers and hike through the mountains.

You Need to Visit MEDELLIN. Is it Safe? Is it Dangerous? We love Colombia ❤️City Travel Guide ????????
So many people have asked and expressed concern about the safety of Colombia and in particular Medellin when we mentioned going there. People have many outdated notions of Medellin and immediately thing of drugs and cartels. In this video we discuss our feelings of safety while exploring the city!
Save $40cad on your next hotel booking here ????
To start things off we take public transportation using both the metro and cable cars (which are integrated into the public transportation system) to reach Arví Park. At first we were a bit confused about where to go in the park but eventually we come across a beautiful picnic park with walking trails, a stream and a bridge.
The next day we head out on a free Medellin Walking Tour with Zippy Tours ( to explore the neighbourhood of Comuna 13. Back when the city was run by cartels and Pablo Escobar this was considered one of the most dangerous neighbourhoods in the entire world. Nowadays its a vibrant area with amazing street art/graffiti that tells the story of this community. The tours are given by members of the community so you get to hear first hand experiences of living there, and how the community pulled through. Along the way we heard many stories, saw some amazing street art, went up the famous escalators, and saw some fabulous street dancing.
All in all we felt very safe throughout those two days spent in Medellin but we always advise everyone to do their research and be aware of their surroundings.

IS MEDELLÍN SAFE TO VISIT? (Americans in Medellín) – Colombia Day 2
September 19, 2017 / VLOG NO. 84 – In this episode, I answer the question—is Medellín safe to visit? I had no clue what to expect when I arrived in Colombia, but I quickly found out that it is a place that I want to return to again. In the video, we took a walk through some of Medellín's most famous attractions, and also got caught up in the middle of something very inconvenient to say the least!

Things To Know Before Visiting Medellin Colombia
Things To Know Before Visiting Medellin Colombia
I have been living in Medellin for six years and I have many businesses and properties here. Since I have a quite experience now I wanted to give you some recommendations before you will come to visit this beautiful Colombian country.
First thing I would like to mention is the question of security. Obviously, Colombia is an emerging economy so it is not the safest place in the world but it is not at all that dangerous as many believe. I have been living here for quite a long now and nothing bad happened to me. I have never been stolen. However, you should not show off so do not take out your latest model of mobile phone in the public and so on. You should take Uber instead of a taxi from the street. Uber is illegal in Colombia so you should sit at the front seat.
The dollar is astronomically high in Colombia so if you want to invest it is a great moment right now or perhaps if you are expats and you earn in dollars, your life will be much cheaper here than in the USA.
As for the sim card, I recommend you Claro which has a great reception all over the country, even in the most remote spots. You can buy a pre-paid card in any shops here.
As for the communication, even though Colombia lives out of tourism, there are still many people, especially the elder, that does not know it, so it would be great if you could learn some basic words in Spanish. The Colombian people will appreciate a lot that you are making an effort. You will soon discover that people here are very friendly and open so you will feel incredibly welcomed.
If you are planning to go to Amazon area or the Caribbean coast like Cartagena de las Indias, you will need yellow vaccine certificate which you can actually obtain here and you will save a lot of money in comparison to the USA.
As for the dress code, for men you should not wear sandals and shorts. I would recommend jeans. Medellin is more lay-back than other parts of Colombia like Bogota where people tends to wear suits more often.
For more tips, watch the full video that I hope you will find helpful at your next trip to Medellin.
