Hello, I am Leonardo José Padilla Herrara. Originally from the community of San Basilio de Palenque, manager and tour guide of the Benkos Tour Community Tourism Agency of the Palanquera Community. I am focused on strengthening, maintaining and making known the cultural wealth and cultural legacies that our ancestors left us.
Free visit San Basilio de Palenque.
Live an experience with a native guide that during the tour will give you the opportunity to get to know a corner of Africa located in Colombia.
I will show you a community of great historical importance representing freedom and Afro culture where you will connect with the oral and intangible heritage of Palenquero.
You will know elements such as the history of the Maroon leaders who fought to liberate this territory in the colonial era, the traditional music, the Creole language of the Bantu community , the gastronomy, the organizational form of the Palenquero, the traditional medicine, the typical hairstyles, as well as to the visit to the house-museum, to the stories and myths of this community.

Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
