Rum, revolutionaries and salsa rhythms: Cuba’s allure is impossible to resist

Cuba Holidays

Trips to Cuba are a visual feast. Classic cars rumble along cobbled streets in between yellow, crumbling colonial mansions. While the white sandy beaches, like the Playa Ancon, are the ideal place to relax and unwind, our Cuba holidays allow you to delve deeper, where you’ll find a fascinating culture born from a tumultuous, revolutionary history –as well as proud locals who are only too keen to share their country’s stories and traditions with you.

On our Cuban Highlights Ride, you’ll cycle through tropical scenery and quiet coastal roads. Off the bike, you can visit Che Guevara’s Mausoleum and the Bay of Pigs, while also soaking up the vibrant streets in Trinidad with a salsa dancing class. If you’re looking for a Cuba holiday where you’ll enjoy a city tour of Havana in a classical car and master the art of making a perfect mojito, then Highlights of Cuba is the perfect trip for you. Immerse yourself on a night out in their hot tavernas, where the salsa rhythms spill out onto the streets and the locals dance till dawn. Want to pedal across the length of Cuba?

Our Cycle Cuba holiday takes you past charming coastal fishing towns, Birán, the birthplace of Fidel Castro and up into the mountains past coffee plantations on an exhilarating ride through Sierra Maestra –a region rarely visited by other tourists.

So, whether you’re heading to Cuba to tick four UNESCO World Heritage Sites off your bucket list, or simply cannot wait to immerse yourself in its unique history and culture, our adventure tours in Cuba will leave you with memories to last a lifetime.

Cycling Cuba with Exodus Tours
Being Canadian, we have had opportunities to visit Cuba before this trip and we were prepared for a good deal of inconveniences, from limited food choices to travel itself being a daily challenge.
My wife and I are also accomplished tour cyclists, having enjoyed this form of travel as our main choice of holiday for many years.
We encourage people to combine active, human powered modes of transportation with their holidays. The ability to see, smell, hear, experience the location you are travelling to in real time, at a humanly accessible pace, enhances your ability to fully experience the country you are travelling to.

Glen Marko Cycling Cuba

This trip was a fantastic way to explore more of Cuba and learn about it’s history and culture from locals! The cycling was great overall, there were some hills that were tougher – especially with the humidity and being directly under the sun, but very rewarding. There were lots of long stretches on the trip where we could all cycle at our own pace and so many locals coming out of their homes and shops to wave while we cycled by. I especially loved the views on day 11 cycling along the coast to Cienfuegos! Lunch at the farm on day 13 was definitely the best meal we had while on the trip, but in general, I was surprised with the food options we had for many of our meals. The itinerary was also jam packed with different activities, I absolutely loved our beach day in Trinidad and the classic car tour of Havana was so much fun!
