Ring in a new year in Colombia! Have a festive New Year celebration with this guide’s assistance

Colombia is no slacker when it comes to year-end festivities. They go all out with a bang whenever the occasion calls for it. They never fall short of people’s expectations with their holiday preparations.

And when it comes to the biggest celebration of the year? You won’t catch them flopping at all.

Almost everyone collectively agrees that New Year is THE event that defines the entire year. Every Colombian looks forward to this holiday as it often entails joyful merrymaking and plenty of food. If this is what a New Year’s in Colombia is like, who wouldn’t look forward to it?

You don’t have to drink champagne all alone in your hotel room while waiting for the new year, not when there’s a party out there waiting for you. There are other people out there who would be more than glad to spend the New Year with you — it’s just a matter of taking the initiative to join them.

If you’re set on spending the holidays in Colombia, your best choice of city is Medellin. It is one of the best places to experience the Colombian New Year magic. But first things first, you would need to plan your itinerary. To save you the hassle, we’ve come up with a few useful tips to ensure you have a happy New Year:

Finding a Place to Stay

Medellin’s rising popularity has allowed it to become one of Colombia’s top tourist destinations. It’s great that the town tourism sales are skyrocketing — but so are the lodging rates.

The hostels you can find in Medellin often charge $20 a night, and this might even increase during the New Year. You can find other hostels with reasonable prices, but you’ll have to be diligent in your search. You will also need to book them in advance to avoid a price hike before the holiday season kicks in.

Hostel Ondas is one of these hostels that you can rely on for affordability and comfort. They have a terrace where you can relax and watch the fireworks when New Year’s Eve is in full swing.

The Purple Monkey also makes a great hostel for those looking for a friendly company to celebrate the holidays with. This backpacker hostel charges $10 for their dorm beds, but once again, prices may vary when New Year’s in Medellin is at its peak.

The Los Patios Hostel Boutique is what most paisas or Medellin locals call a poshtel. At first glance, no one would think this classy place would be a budget hostel at all! They have a rooftop bar where you can mingle along with other paisas.

If you wouldn’t mind spending a bit more on a luxurious stay, Parque Lleras will be right up your alley. It’s closer to the nightlife district, and the people are often pleasant and conversational.

Soy Local is the best choice for those looking to explore Medellin’s gastronomy. This hotel has a beer garden and is also near the best bars and restaurants in town.

Charlee Hotel is a lot more high-end, costing $107 per night. The good news is, you get exactly what you pay for. There’s a rooftop swimming pool and a nearby bar — great for a New Year’s Eve pool party. They also serve breakfast with local fruits and dishes, which can be very convenient for weary travelers.

For a complete list, we recommend you try checking in Medellin’s top-rated hotels.

Travel Tips to Ensure a Memorable Medellin Experience

Among all the cities in Colombia, Medellin has the most favorable climate. It’s not as hot as Cartagena, nor is it as chilly as Bogota. Taking a stroll wouldn’t be a problem in this city at all.

Light clothes are a must in the morning. You can start adding a few layers when night falls.

If you plan on going for a night out, it’s best to dress in a good pair of trousers. Coming in wearing a pair of shorts would not only earn you a few odd looks but you would possibly be denied entry to nightclubs. Colombians are sticklers for dress codes, so it’s best to dress according to the occasion.

Taking public transport is highly encouraged. Taxis tend to overcharge unknowing tourists, so you’re better off taking the metro. It goes through all the tourist spots you can find in Medellin, so you wouldn’t have any difficulties finding your way around.

You also have the option of using Medellin’s cable cars. They are a convenient way of going around the city. While en route to your next destination, you get to enjoy a striking view of the city. Riding a cable car would only cost you $0.80, which is an absolute steal if you’re getting a ride and a view at once.

A trip to the next stop would only take around 5 minutes on average, so you would still be able to catch up on your day. But if you plan on making multiple stops, it’s best to save the cable car for later when it’s convenient for you.

Bringing new experiences to 2022

Now comes the hard part of celebrating the holidays abroad — finding someone to spend it with.

Even though it’s great to spice up your holidays and try something new, it can be disorienting. Studying the culture in Medellin can only do so much. Books and website blogs pale in comparison to experiencing it firsthand.

If you intend to find a potential partner during your trip, you’ll have to get all the travel problems out of the way first. To save yourself from the trouble of managing these problems at once, why not give the Singles Tour a try?

The Singles Tour has everything you need to guarantee you a safe trip. Plus, you’ll get the chance to meet single Medellin women who are looking for a partner. This is a tour and date experience all in one!

Make your mark this New Year and give yourself a chance to turn your life around. Take a trip to Medellin and get yourself a Latina Girlfriend.
