Countries Visited: Cuba
Overload your senses with a feast of Cuban warmth, charm and history.
Experience the best of Cuba's beaches, cigars and '50s cars! On this relaxed tour we savour every taste of Cuba, from the expertly mixed mojitos to the traditional cuisine at Hemingway's favourite restaurant, La Bodeguita del Medio. Latin rhythms fill the streets of Havana, Trinidad and Cienfuegos leaving our feet tapping. Taking a salsa lesson with a local dance partner will help us to master the basics so that we can join in at Trinidad's Casa de la Trova - the famous 'house of music'.
At a factory near picturesque Vinales, the smell of cigars hangs in the air as we learn how Cuba's finest exports are carefully rolled by hand. There is also time for snorkelling and sunbathing when we take an (optional) catamaran trip along the Caribbean coast. Most of all, the warmth of the people and the refreshing lack of commercialism that Cuba is so common for allows us to enjoy the lifestyle and spirit of this inimitable isle.
What makes this trip responsible?
Re-use and recycling is a way of life in Cuba due to the scarcity of goods and we encourage a 'Leave no Trace' policy. On this trip we also make an effort to support small, family run restaurants known as Paladares wherever possible. This helps to support local people and gives an insight into the realities of Cuban life where food rationing is prevalent.
Internal Flights in Cuba
We don’t use internal flights in Cuba, as we don’t believe that they are safe, necessary or environmentally sound. For more information, please read our Cuba Flights page.
