A truly amazing tour. - This was an amazing, information filled tour that not only captured the African legacy of Palenque, but the parts of its history that are connected to Cartagena and other parts of Colombia as well. The people of Palenque were very welcoming and happy to share their culture and homes with us and we truly respected and appreciated them. Lunch was very tasty and a traditional meal we were happy to take part in.
