Tour to Cuba
2 days / 2 nights tour
Havana is literally crumbling down around its inhabitants with something
like 40,000 buildings needing to be demolished or rebuilt. Since the US
embargo maintenance and overall appearance have virtually stood still.
Hanging out on the Malecon is a great way to meet the locals, where they
come out for the paseo or walk.
The old town centre has had quite a bit of work done, and is pleasant
to stroll around and view the restored buildings to their former grandeur.
The Capitolo building is worth a visit - this is based on the original
US building, but with much more detail. Besides walking around which is
very easy to do, pedicabs are available to view the city as well, and
are very inexpensive.
The most famous rum distilleries and cigar factories are also a must to
visit. Another recommendation is to visit Vinales and Pinar del Rio in
the countryside.
American issued credit cards are not accepted - even though the US$ is
the main currency!
Rate per person: Further details upon request
