Day 1: Start Havana.
Welcome to Havana, Cuba's lively capital. Meet your tour leader and fellow passengers today at the start accommodation. Accommodation: Casa Particulares
Day 2: To Vinales Valley; walk through tobacco plantations.
Today we travel to Vinales Valley, in the west of Cuba. Famous for its rolling tobacco plantations and collection of limestone karsts dotted along the valley, it's not hard to see why Vinales was awarded UNESCO World Heritage site status. Joined by a local resident we walk through the 'Valley of Silence' to soak up rural Cuban life as farmers tend to their crops using traditional farming methods. We'll also visit a tobacco farm to learn about one of the island's most famous exports and meet with a local tobacco farmer to help understand the growing process. After checking into our overnight accommodation in Casa Particulares, we visit an organic farm in the hills of Viñales for a sunset dinner overlooking the valley. Accommodation: Casa Particulares
Day 3: To Cienfuegos via the Bay of Pigs.
This morning we set off on a long drive eastward to Cienfuegos. We stop for lunch at the Bay of Pigs at a small beachfront restaurant with a large Cuban welcome. The speciality here is fresh fish caught by local fisherman just off the coast. Time permitting, you can enjoy a refreshing dip in the sea. This region of the Zapata Peninsula is a National Park and swamp providing a habitat for some of the most important bird species in Cuba. We are joined by a local nature expert who will introduce us to the natural landscape and characteristics of the area. We will also have some time to explore the Giron Museum, which exhibits items from the failed invasion by CIA-backed Cuban Americans. Afterwards we will carry on our transfer to Cienfuegos. The city of Cienfuegos is full of architectural delights and Cuban spirit, with a beautiful main square and restored buildings. On arrival we check into our casas for the night. Tonight, we enjoy a Cuban themed evening which will include Cuban music, delicious roast pork, rum and dominoes prepared by our fabulous host Lily. Today's travel time is approx. 7 hours. Accommodation: Casa Particulares
Day 4: Bici taxi tour of Cienfuegos; to Trinidad UNESCO World Heritage Site; walking tour of Trinidad.
This morning we will start by having a city tour on Bici Taxis. One of the best ways to get around is by Bici Taxi, a fun tour using Cuba’s eco-friendly and typical city transport. Each Bici Taxi can accommodate two people and will be pedalled by a local resident (most of whom like to introduce their guests to reggaeton music!) The Bici Taxi tour is a great time to talk to local Cienfuegos residents and have a go at practising your Spanish. Afterwards we depart Cienfuegos and drive down the coast to Trinidad. Trinidad has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1988 and is perhaps the best-preserved colonial town on the island. Exploring Trinidad can feel like entering a time warp, its colourful, cobbled streets and horse drawn transportation whisking us back. There are many interesting museums housed in old colonial buildings and music drifts through the streets and plazas, bringing the town to life. We have a walking tour with a local resident who will give us an insider perspective of what it’s like to live in Trinidad. The tour of the city will also include a visit to the ‘Casa Templo de Santaria de Yemaya’ where we will find out about the Santeria Afro-Cuban religion. We'll stay overnight in charming Casa Particulares, private Bed and Breakfast accommodation in local Cuban houses. Our dinner this evening will be at a private paladar where a local collective of musicians will perform interpretations of classic Cuban trova songs. This is sure to be a lively evening and a wonderful opportunity to enjoy Cuban music with its distinct rhythms. Accommodation: Casa Particulares
Day 5: Discover Playa Ancon; cocktail and salsa class in Trinidad.
This morning we transfer to Playa Ancon making a short stop to visit the picturesque fishing village of La Boca. This is a popular spot with local fishermen, who we will meet and get a chance to speak to about the fishing industry in Cuba. Then we will carry on to Playa Ancon and enjoy some time on the beach. It is a great place to swim or you can simply just dip your toes and relax. Afterwards we have an authentic Cuban lunch prepared for us. Back in Trinidad we join the Santander family and enjoy a pottery-making class. Here we will learn the skills that have been passed down by several generations of this Cuban family before making our very own pottery with the guidance of a family member. Also this afternoon we meet a Cuban barman who is an expert at making the perfect mojito! After a mojito making lesson everyone in the group will have a go at mixing their own in the authentic Cuban way. Afterwards we’ll take part in a salsa class with Cuban dance partners. There will be one dance partner for each member of the group, to assist with teaching the correct salsa moves. Trinidad is known for its nightlife, so after we’ve learnt the basics of salsa we’ll go to the town’s ‘Casa de la Trova’ live music venue to listen to local musicians playing authentic Cuban music. This venue is always lively and sociable, with plenty of local Cuban’s keen to let us practice our dancing with them! Accommodation: Casa Particulares
Day 6: To Manaca Iznaga and Che Guevara's Mausoleum in Santa Clara; to Havana.
After breakfast we visit a project in Trinidad which showcases the skilled process of making textile handicrafts. Leaving Trinidad we head to Manaca Iznaga, where we learn about the sugar growing history surrounding the Valle de los Ingenios, a hugely important industry for Cuba during the 18th and 19th centuries. As we have a long transfer today, we'll take packed lunches from our accommodation. We also visit an idyllic country farmhouse run by a charming couple, a botanist and farmer. On the property they grow medicinal plants, fruit, and have a small coffee plantation. As well as being welcomed into their house for a ‘cafecito’ we’ll have a short walk around the property with the owners, learning about small-scale agriculture techniques and industry in rural Cuba. Our next stop is Santa Clara, the site of the last battle of the Cuban Revolution in December 1958, just before Fidel Castro took Havana. Che Guevara and his troops ambushed an armoured train carrying arms to Santiago de Cuba and this was a major turning point in the Revolution. We visit the Mausoleum of Che Guevara and his comrades who died in Bolivia before driving back to Havana. Dinner will be at a private paladar, run by an entrepreneurial chef who pioneers a fusion of Cuban and Asian cuisine. Today's travel time is approx. 5 hours Accommodation: Casa Particulares
Day 7: Havana city tour on foot and by classic car.
This morning we set off for a walking tour of old and new Havana, Cuba's capital and the largest city in the Caribbean. Havana is a busy, bustling, energetic capital. The area of Old Havana is often described as a living museum, with its marvellous monuments, cathedrals and palaces. This is the finest surviving Spanish colonial complex in the Americas. Preserved by a combination of minimal war damage, post-revolution restoration work and the millions of dollars invested since it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1982. During our tour we visit a ration store, food market and artisan market. There is no better way to see Havana than by classic car, and so in the early evening we continue our tour of the capital in style, travelling in immaculately looked after classic cars in vibrant colours. Visiting both the old and new areas of the city, we discover the distinct neighbourhoods of the capital, stopping at points of interest for explanations and stories. Feel free to ask questions about why the streets of Cuba are filled with classic American cars manufactured in the 1950’s and how on earth the owners manage to maintain them! Accommodation: Casa Particulares
Day 8: End Havana.
This morning is free to relax or do some last minute sightseeing in Havana's old town before those on group flights transfer to the airport in the afternoon.

Some long journeys

Food

All breakfasts, 3 lunches and 5 dinners included. Cuba is not renowned for its culinary excellence (although it is improving) and some ingredients are just not possible to get hold of. Food tends to be simple and relatively expensive - in no small part due to the long trade embargo implemented by the US. Flavours tend to be relatively simple, with most mealtimes consisting of meat or fish accompanied by rice and salad or vegetables. Seafood is widely available on the coast, including cheap and abundant lobster! Vegetarians will probably find they have the most limited choice. Snack food is not freely available in Cuba so you may wish to consider taking some with you. It can also be difficult to find quick lunches on the go as Cubans typically eat two meals a day, so expect choice of sandwiches to be limited. Whilst food choice can be basic, on the plus side there is absolutely no shortage of rum! Havana Club, Black Tears, Ron Santiago, Caney.. after a visit to Cuba you'll be an expert. Paladares are likely to be a highlight of any visit to Cuba - they are one of the few types of private enterprise allowed (although still heavily regulated), where families or entrepreneurs are allowed to set up a restaurant. Think soul food - rice, black beans, slow roast pork or chicken, fresh fish, lobster and plenty of tropical fruit. The atmosphere in private paladares and the opportunity to integrate with local Cubans will absolutely enhance your stay! Drinking water will be provided on all tours. Please bring your own refillable water bottles.

Weather

The dry season runs from November through to April (with December to March being the peak holiday months for traditional style tourism). It is very humid between May and October, with heavy rains at times and the possibility of hurricanes. July and August are some of the most popular months to visit Cuba by sun-seekers from Europe and Canada but are extremely hot (average 28ºC) and wet. Cuba has an average of 6 hours sunshine per day with a more or less constant humidity of 62%. Water temperature normally ranges from 24ºto 28ºC.

Is this trip for you?

In this itinerary we travel in the comfort of a private air-conditioned coach. During our time in Cuba we stay in some of the most characteristic destinations on the island, including Havana, Trinidad, Cienfuegos and Vinales. Along the way we have a salsa class, learn about Cuba's fascinating revolutionary history and current communist system and walk in the countryside of Vinales Valley. The longest journey on this trip is 7 hours on day 3, and there is another long distance to cover on day 6. Travel times can vary depending on traffic and weather.

It is possible that you will be confronted by other minor frustrations whilst travelling in Cuba. We encourage all travellers to go with an open mind, and with realistic expectations at what a visit to Cuba entails. If your guide announces a change of plans then please be assured that everything possible has been done behind the scenes in order to make satisfactory alternative arrangements.

Please be aware that mobile networks don’t make or receive calls particularly well in Cuba, and coverage may not be available in many locations. 4G was introduced in Cuba in 2019 for the first time but not all phone networks work in Cuba, so please check with your service provider before travel. Data roaming from your home network can be incredibly expensive in Cuba - we recommend switching this off. There are several ways to connect to the internet using a mobile device, but on the whole it's best not to expect a reliable internet connection whilst travelling. Many casa particulares have free wifi that can be used, but download speeds are likely to be slow. You can purchase wifi scratch cards at official shops, but often you'll encounter long queues. Alternatively you can buy a Cuban sim card and roaming package valid for 30 days, to use in an unlocked phone.
