Is it safe to travel to Cali and Medellin Colombia to visit friends??

Answer 1

Of course it's safe to go to Colombia. People have this sily idea that Colombia is just drug lords, Farc, and chaos everywhere! That's absolutely wrong. Colombia is a beautiful country and Cali and Medellin are even more beautiful than Bogota. Visit your friends and have a great time! Colombia is as safe as any other country in the world, just take the normal precautions you would take when travelling anywhere and enjoy life.

Of course!!! I'm from Cali and I would say you than this city is very beautiful and safe. Nevertheless, you can't, for example, to shine your valor articles as cell phones, ipods, or expensive accessories. but generally Cali receives very well to foreigners. well, good way in your travel and I hope you in here!!! Lol!!!

suggestion: visit Torre de Cali, La Merced, La Ermita, etc, etc. Moreover, it's good to wear short clothe bczz the heath in here is unbearable in June and July. In August the temperatures do not exceed the 75`. so you will come on good time. good luck... (sorry for my englsih)
