Amazing Palenque Experience - Great experience! Palenque is a beauty place with beautiful people and a very rich history. The tour allowed us to get a first-hand experience of the beautiful village; from learning different word meaning to making rice, and lastly, enjoying the delicious meal. I enjoyed my tour and would love to visit again in the future.

Slave History and Resilience - Interesting cultural and historical tour. Didn't realize so many boxers came from Palenque. Definitely worth a trip outside Cartagena.
