Great Place to Visit - Palenque is truly a unique place that everyone who visits Cartagena must go. It shows how the Africo-Colombians preserved their culture and heritage in this beautiful place. Romeo was an amazing guide and he helped translate and guided us through the history of Palenque

Worth the experience! - We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel on time. Our guide was Romeo who was very knowledgeable in the customs of the people and spoke the language (including Spanish and English). The restaurant that was chosen for lunch had a variety of options and I was given the option of a gluten free meal with grilled chicken. The Palengue people were accommodating and eager to share their culture with us. Overall, a wonderful experience to see this little Africa in Columbia.
