Essential Free walking tours of San Basilio de Palenque

This tour was very unique and nothing compared to other walking tours. We passed some stops where locals explain about their way of life, medicine and music. We enjoyed the tour a lot even though Luis himself doesn't speak much English. He is however from the community and will find someone who can take over the tour or translate if you have problems understanding. The expected price per person is 50k COP which we consider a fair price. Luis even dropped us with his moto to catch the bus back to Cartagena. We recommend!

This was a great experience to learn about black history in Colombia and the Americas. I really enjoyed it and I’m glad I went

My husband and I are forever touched by this amazingly personal, informative, and professional tour. Luis, our guide, crafted an incredible experience that brought us closer to his roots and let us learn about his culture and the history of Palenque. We loved the stories, the music, the food, and our brief boxing lesson. However, most of all, we appreciate and admire Luis and his dedication to his community and us, the guests. This is a tour that every person visiting Colombia has to take!
