The wonders of America's first free black town - Thanks to the afrotour tourism agency, I have been able to understand a lot about the history, customs and legacy of the first free black people in America. I invite those travelers who want to know San Basilio de Palenque to live their experience with Afrotour and their local guide Faider Hernández. They will live a unique and unparalleled experience.
