Palenque Tour - Man oh man… what can I say? Our tour guide Romeo is excellent. Very patient and helpful. He is bilingual so his English and Spanish is very good. He translate very well the language of the Palenque people. The dance performance, food, and the natural medicine was my favorite. The people are very friendly and I highly recommend this tour. This tour won’t disappoint and if you get Romeo as your tour guide, you are in good hands. Have Fun :)
