Tour de Palenque - Romeo and his team were excellent. Romeo gave us an amazing immersive tour due to the relationship he has with the people of Palenque and we left feeling like Palenque was a part of us and we were a part of Palenque! 10 out of 10, would recommend!

Don't miss it! - This was a wonderful and pleasant experience, starting with the tour guide, Romeo. They communicated the pick-up time and arrived as expected. I learned a lot while en route and more when we arrived. The people were welcoming and lunch was fantastic. I would recommend light clothing and a hat, as it was very hot. Thanks for sharing and preserving the history. I am looking forward to learning more on my own.

Bus was awful - The trip itself was amazing. Great experience. Romeo was professional and knowledgeable. Palenque is a must see. Lunch was great. CON: The bus is horrible small and HOT. They should be ashamed squeezing us on that hot small bus. The air barely worked. It was hot and miserable up and back. If you have hips or are on the heavier side don’t bother. The seats are terrible

Overall good tour, the... - Overall good tour, the people and activities in Palenque are nice. However, i felt like the tour could countain more as it was 5 hours of driving for 1h30 of visit and 30 minutes of lunch. Considering how expensive the tour is, I woulda wanted more. On a side note, the van broke down in Cartagena. It was'nt long to get a replacement van, but it was stressful.
