Cuba
Experience well preserved eco-systems, picture-postcard towns, endless stretches of white sand, and a rustic, easy going way of life.
Intro
A jewel in the crown of Latin America, Cuba is the largest of the Caribbean islands. Declared the ‘most beautiful land ever seen’ by Christopher Columbus, it is said, this archipelago is studded with colourful colonial architecture and sits amid sublime turquoise seas. With a turbulent revolutionary heritage, the resilient Cuban people are unlike any other - with a fierce sense of individuality, a great sense of humour and a knack for producing the world’s finest cocktails and cigars.
Why travel with us ?
We have been organising group and tailor-made tours of Cuba for many years and know this complex and fascinating country inside out. By collaborating with trusted local partners, we ensure that your experiences in Cuba are authentic and memorable.Staying in a casa particular - think Cuban B&B - is an integral part of the Cuban experience and we have specifically designed our itineraries using such accommodation. From cosy cottage-style casas in Viñales to airy colonial casas in Trinidad, you will get a fascinating insight into daily Cuban family life. By staying in casas we can also ensure that the money goes directly to the families with whom you stay.
While a visit to the west of Cuba will provide a varied and fulfilling experience, Cuba's underrated east offers a completely different perspective on the island. Our Cuban Odyssey tour provides a unique opportunity to experience the little-visited city of Camagüey, as well as Santiago de Cuba and picturesque Baracoa - an opportunity not to be missed.
Fancy a few extra days on Cuba's pristine beaches to reflect on your experiences, perhaps with an ice-cold mojito in hand? Are you fascinated by Cuba's revolutionary history and keen to see the former prison on Isla de la Juventud where Fidel Castro was once incarcerated? We have endless options for extensions as well as tailor-made tours in Cuba, so get in touch with our friendly travel specialists and start planning your Cuban adventure.
