On this holiday you can spend time enjoying the very best of Cuba, with some interesting and unique activities, great dining experiences at hand picked privately run restaurants, the chance to listen to some live Cuban music and maybe even have a  dance or two !

The combination of exploring Havana, experiencing rural life in Cuba amidst the most beautiful scenery at Vinales Valley and visiting the  contrasting colonial cities in the central region is one of the most popular journeys in Cuba. We can tailor your holiday to suit your interests and it can be extended with the chance to relax and explore a little independently. If you like walking or cycling we can incorporate this into the holiday with some early morning exercise , or maybe go jogging with one of our guides on a popular route for the locals. History buffs can enjoy more dedicated time in Cuba’s museums and we can discuss your individual requirements with you.

All our holidays can be fully guided throughout, or you can travel a little more independently and book a local guide for each visit or activity that you choose to enjoy. You can then use our private transfer service to move between each destination and add in free days for your own pursuits.

Spend the first three nights in Cuba’s capital city Havana, with the chance for an afternoon cruising the streets of Havana in a chauffeur driven old American car. Visit a real working cigar factory and  immerse yourself in historic Old Havana, learn how to make those famous Rum cocktails and get dressed up for a night at the Tropicana!

After a hectic few days in Havana, head to the peace and quiet of Vinales Valley and relax ! Be guided gently  through the spectacular scenery of this UNESCO preserved heritage  region and enjoy the chance to enjoy some outdoor activities such as walking , cycling , horse riding and even caving !  Or relax with a day on the beach at the unspoilt and idyllic  Cayo Jutias island.

Heading into central Cuba the holiday then focuses on the famous small colonial cities, with an initial overnight stop in Cienfuegos. The next day its an early rise to catch the flamingos and then to head into the mountains for the chance for a swim in the cool waters under one of Cuba’s largest waterfalls. Enjoy a couple of nights in Trinidad, regarded by many as a living museum. Continue to  Santa Clara, the revolutionary city and Che Guevara’ final resting place and then head to Havana and home.

Alternatively enjoy a few days of relaxation in the Caribbean sun with the beaches at Trinidad, Cayo Santa Maria,  Jibacoa or  Varadero all working well with the holiday itinerary.
