Has anyone been to Bogota recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there a while back and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Trying to decide between this and Germany.
Cheers

Been there 12 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.
