Overview

Enter the magic of San Basilio de Palenque, the first free people of America and Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. Just an hour and a half from Cartagena, you will discover a place where time seems to stand still and history beats in every corner.

Enjoy music demonstrations and traditional hairstyles, taste authentic flavors such as mote de guandú, rice with coconut and handmade sweets, and connect with the warmth of its people, always ready to share their roots with joy and pride.

More than a tour, this tour is a transforming experience: an immersion in the culture, memory and spirit of freedom that still permeates Palenque.
