Is this Colombia's most dangerous city?? Buenaventura, Colombia 🇨🇴

Nobody stays in the city of Buenaventura on Colombia's Pacific coast on their way to beach destinations. So we decided to check it out.

[@baptistebrodard]

I went there 4 or 5 times. I met very good people who became friends and brothers. Regarding the danger, like in other places in the world, we have to be aware of what might happen and then take our own responsibility for our choices, just simple as it is. And also, it depends on what you're doing and who you're handling with.

[@benbrazyoutube]

Yes I agree, everywhere in the world has mostly great people but also some sketchy people.

Gracias yo soy de Buenaventura y ver esto de ustedes que orgullo

[@baptistebrodard]

@@derranalexandermosqueragut3295 De nada hermano, con mucho gusto. Gracias a usted y un saludo!

[@MemoTraining]

That is exactly how you should view it. Not being oblivious like "Oh it's safe"

I'd love to visit the pacific coast of Colombia on my next trip, I've been to the Caribbean side before and it seems like a very different vibe. Buen viaje!

[@benbrazyoutube]

Yeah super different vibe, only long-term wanderers make it to the Pacific coast it seems.

[@dashabateman4409]

respect brother. I am too cowardly to go to Bogota again haha. You have testicules massifs my friend. Respect and please keep the videos coming. you earned my subscription !

[@benbrazyoutube]

Thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement Dasha! I will definitely keep the videos coming 🙏

[@Elmagnifico507]

Tumaco is the other pacific coast city it also has a port it is next to Ecuador border.

[@benbrazyoutube]

Ah ok cool, maybe for next time!

7:35 love when travelers try to downplay the dangers of a place they've spent 1 hour in lol... "This place doesnt seem dangerous I literally just walked out of my hotel downtown in broad daylight."

[@benbrazyoutube]

🤣🤣🤣 I'm laughing because you're right, and I've said the exact same thing about other people before.

[@sedG38]

@@benbrazyoutube lol im sure its just one of those things.

[@toursbydee]

I love my city! I love you Buenaventura!! So many of us have been displaced and had to leave our city for elsewhere, but we will always carry it in our hearts and soul. When I want to party and not worry my family, I stay at La Cordillera hotel with breakfast included.

[@benbrazyoutube]

Awesome, I love your passion for your city ❤

[@derranalexandermosqueragut3295]

Love my puerto gracias por ir no todo es malo

El placer fue mio Derran!

[@magnusrey]

Thank you for going to my city!

[@benbrazyoutube]

The pleasure was all mine Ivan! Thank you for watching 🙏

[@Sleepy_Joe_]

Man I wish I was as brave as you guys. I would be scared in that town lol. Do you never feel unsafe?

[@benbrazyoutube]

Yeah I've definitely felt unsafe in certain neighborhoods of some cities but overall I think places are less dangerous than people say

[@Celine_2318]

Is it true that it rains a lot in Buenaventura? If so, how often? Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦

[@firststatetate]

Last time we went we were delighted at the evening shootings. At sunset, we would watch the ships and submarines full of cocaine sail off for America. Very rich in culture. I recommend a trip inland to Cali as well. Armed guards always create an intense feeling of romanticism.

[@benbrazyoutube]

🤣🤣🤣 looooool good one. Yeah I love those things too 😅 Great ambiance

[@harolmoisesgonzalezagamez3857]

Yo quiero viajar a buenaventura es una cuidad hermosa

[@benbrazyoutube]

Si Harol estoy de acuerdo, me gustó mucho la ciudad y la región!

sugar cane juice (guarapo), not liquid sugar. delicious when served cold.

[@benbrazyoutube]

Mmm sounds even better.

[@stephenlewis7756]

Squeeze of lemon or lime juice in it is good also, cheers

[@sqadboibear]

Hahaha. Funny how all the travel vlogs link Buenaventura with danger i their titles. Tura is only dangerous to the locals. Not the tourist. But good vid. I have family in tura. I visit every year

[@benbrazyoutube]

Awesome! Yeah I didn't feel unsafe at all in Buenaventura, I only used this title because I had heard it's dangerous. Actually really cool vibes!

[@gilesgful]

@@benbrazyoutube Maybe consider editing the title if it doesn't reflect your experience? I know getting views/clicks is important but I guess one of the great things about travel is uncovering the truth beneath the prejudice. Most people will see the title and not have time to watch the whole video.

Que cheveré! Me gustó mucho el ambiente de la ciudad

[@didiersimonriascosriascos8325]

Lo peor de buenaventura no es su peligrosidad, lo peor es su clase politica y gobernantes que tienen a la ciudad sumida en el subdesarrollo y atraso, debido a su exagerado nivel de corrupcion donde todos los dineros de las granes obras se lo roban asi no permiten que esta ciudad se convierta en un destino atractivo turisticamente..gracias ben brasnett por visitar el pacifico.

[@benbrazyoutube]

Gracias por compartir Didier! Esta história es una de las granes penas del mundo. Lo deseo a la ciudad el desarrollo que merece. Gracias por seguir mi viaje.
