If you want to see and feel the Real African Culture, you need to visit San Basilio de Palenque Village, who was founded by runaway African slaves who struggled for their independence during the 17th Century, this tiny village was heritage listed by UNESCO in 2005 due to its strong African linguistic, musical, religion and cultural traditions. It is considered the first town free of Slavery in the Americas and is definitely worth a visit in order to gain a fuller picture of Cartagena, the slaves history in Colombia and Latin America and to observe a community where Afro-roots and traditions have been preserved and maintained including a distinct creole language (Palenquero), folkloric dance, cuisine, dress, hairstyles, political organization and social structure. This village is one hour driving south of Cartagena, and you will enjoy looking some of the Barrios of Cartagena and the country side
We will meet you at the port/hotel/house or condo. We will drive one hour south of Cartagena, where you will see some suburbs of Cartagena, the public market, the countryside, and some small towns on the way to Palenque. When we get there, the local guide and I will show you around the village and will tell you all the history of the first town free of slavery in America (Declared by UNESCO) then drive back to Cartagena.
