It was absolutely amazing! I'm in love with those waterfall in Canaima. People are so friendly and talkative. Sea is very interesting - fishes, corals, lionfish etc. I thought it would be dangerous, but if you don't go to the poorest places- nothing happen
Posted: January 26, 2025Experienced: June, 2024I went to Colombia by myself. Cartagena is incredibly beautiful and super safe. I stayed in Poblano, when I was in Medellin - I didn't see much of the center, God scared me quite quickly and I left - there is really a lot to see there. I took part in a tour to Communa 13 and another one to Guadape. In Bogota, I went to the gold museum, their national museum, and participated in a graffiti tour. I did all this in 10 days.

Depending on the area where you are, it is quite safe; however, you should stay aware of your surroundings, especially if you are a foreigner outside of LATAM. You can be relatively safe in the east of the city, but you should be careful when walking downtown due to how crowded it is.

Barquisimeto is a small city there’s no much crime rate except for some zones that have been hit in by a lot more crime. There’s no high risk of acts of violence against women.
