There are very few places where forced assimilation of language, religion, and customs have not affected the lives of the descendants of African slaves today.

I had the opportunity to do a tour with Experience Real Cartagena. This company, founded by Alex Rocha, is the best company to use if you want to look into Afro-Colombian culture.
