Anniversary Trip to Cartajena - What a great tour. Catherine was our guide to Palenque and Sophia did the local history tour part. The history of the village was explained and the walking tour was well done. The stops in the village with the explanations were great and the people we met we friendly. Lunch was out of this world.

Great day - Out guides Catherine and Sofia were fantastic, telling us about Palenque’s history and culture. A very worthwile experience. Highly recommended!

You NEED to Visit Palenque - This tour is a must. Cesar (our tour guide) was funny, informative, and considerate. Whatever we needed during the tour, we got (water, shelter from the sun, food—all of it). We got picked up in a spacious and air conditioned van, and on the way to Palenque, Cesar told us about the city and had amazing food and nightlife recommendations for the rest of our time in Cartagena). Once we got to Palenque, we were met by a tour guide from the town who shared so much about the history, the culture, the music, the food, and their affinity to boxing. We saw a group of young folks perform a few traditional dances, picked up some souvenirs, walked around the town, met an elder who makes candy and pastries (the SWEETEST older auntie who had a few samples for us), and got a quick boxing lesson. Also—food was AMAZING (fish was delicious). Overall, everyone we met was incredibly welcoming and kind. 10/10 recommend this experience.

Great! - Excellent and informative tour. It really shows the strength of the African diaspora. And very delicious food, best I had in Colombia so far.

BLM Tour to the first African Colony to be recognized as independent in The Americas after a long struggle for freedom - I don’t think my experience could’ve been any better. Katherine was excellent, very engaging, and knowledgeable guide

More than excellent. - Ruberta the candy lady and sitting with her in her own backyard. Also outstanding was Sophia our Palanque guide. And our excellent guide Catherine was so incredibly wonderful that we will request her for any future tours. And the dancers. Wow.

Amazing! - This tour was amazing. The heritage learned was worth it. The food OMG! delicious. The village really showed out!! Thank you to Peace Travel Tours for the wonderful experience. It’s a must do when your in Cartagena.

An Amazing experience - This was so amazing, I truly appreciate this experience. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and relatable. They were very nice and accommodating. It was a great lesson especially as a black woman and seeing people in South America cherish their black roots and our ancestors. The food was the best food and so was the lemonade. This was honestly the best part of my trip. The performances were also amazing!

So necessary - The guides were personable and knowledgeable. The home cooked meal was EXCELLENT. We started late though

Great tour but expensive - The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and Inlearned more about the history of slavery in one day than an entire k-12 education afforded me. What an amazing story of personal strength and the value of community. It was truly inspiring. I would have preferred if the price was lower or the tips included because there were so many stops with tip requests and it felt a little uncomfortable as I was not equipped to pay this extra. I would have preferred to be told that a percentage of the proceeds went directly to the dancers, musicians, athletes, medicine man and cook.
