A few tips before heading to Medellin:

The local attire is a bit formal, so leave the flip-flops at home. Men should wear long pants, and women should pack nice sundresses.

 

The water in Medellín is safe to drink, although most hotels will provide bottled water just in case. If you’re traveling to rural areas outside of the city, it’s smart to only drink bottled water.
