Sono Keiner José, guida locale di San Basilio de Palenque, fondatore di Palenque Tour Represent e orgoglioso discendente della prima comunità libera delle Americhe. Sono cresciuto circondato da musica, tradizione, storie orali e dalla forza del nostro patrimonio africano, ed è per questo che dedico la mia vita a condividere la vera storia nera del mio popolo. La mia passione è insegnare come viviamo, come parliamo e come resistiamo. In ogni tour, combino storia, cultura, musica ed esperienze di vita reale in modo che i visitatori possano percepire lo spirito palenquero dal profondo. Con me, scoprirete i ritmi del tamburo, i segreti dell'intreccio, la spiritualità, la lingua palenquera e la memoria dei nostri antenati. Sono una persona gentile e rispettosa, orgogliosa delle mie radici. La mia missione è che ogni viaggiatore porti con sé più di un semplice tour: un'esperienza viva di libertà e identità.
Keiner is not just a local guide. He is a local and a guide. There is no better way go understant Palenque than through the eyes of someone that was born, raised, lives and creates in the town. Deacovering the history and culture of Palenque with Keiner must not be missed. Totaly recommented.
An outstanding experience from start to finish! Keiner went far beyond to show us his culture, the history of his community, and local traditions. He showed us the whole village, including stops with other members of the community along the way, and took us to a delicious place to eat. At night, we stayed in Palenque, and he invited us to celebrate San Sebastian with the whole village, the water celebration that was happening at this moment and was an amazing evening! We felt so included and grateful for this journey and gained a new friend as well as an unforgettable experience. We would recommend Palenque and Keiner’s tour to anyone blindly!!
La experiencia fue maravillosa. Keiner maneja amabilidad, conocimiento y educación, nos brindó una experiencia inolvidable y nos hizo sentir como en casa. No se arrepentirán de este tour que combina cultura, ancestralidad y calidad humana. La comida que nos ofrecieron estuvo deliciosa y a un precio accesible. Importante llevar gorras o sombrillas e hidratación por el fuerte sol.
Keiner was great! With enthusiasm and deep knowledge, he entertained us along our tour of Palenque. He reached out over text before we arrived, so we knew how to find him easily. He prearranged a delicious local lunch and guided us to a variety of interesting stops. He easily answered all of our questions and we all learned so much about Palenque. Keiner obviously cares deeply about his community and wants to share its rich history with outsiders. He made a great tour guide! Wear sun screen and bring small bills for tips you might want to share along the tour.
