Great Palenque private tour! - Duran Duran was a very knowledgeable, patient, and fun tour guide for our private couple's tour to Palenque. From the time he picked us up at our hotel, he was educating us on Cartagena and the surroundings areas, all the way to Palenque. This was really helpful! Once we arrived at Palenque, we were handed over to a local tour guide. This is done out of respect for the local community, which we very much appreciated. Although this was the case, Duran Duran walked alongside us throughout the entire tour and chimed in with necessary information and English translations whenever necessary. All-in-all, we were in good hands with Duran Duran and highly recommend him for any tour that he offers. Not: we only did a half day tour, so local food was not included. We did receive some great coffee along the way!

Phenomenal Once in a Lifetime Experience - This was by far one of the most meaningful and well executed travel experiences I've ever had. Angel was our hilarious and super intelligent guide. He is truly a cultural and literary scholar who has developed such an incredible relationship with the people of Palenque. He has the utmost respect for the history and culture, and his excitement about sharing all of his knowledge was palpable. He and our palenquero host filled us in on the past, present, and future of this unique village, a tiny slice of Africa in the mountains of South America. They lead us through town, covering as much culture, history, and traditions as possible. The hours flew by like minutes. It was such a privilege for people there to share their way of life with us, answer my endless slew of questions. Everyone should get to know this place. Dance there, sing there, eat there, learn there, share there. Duran Duran facilitated the best possible experience for doing so.
