Havana & Vinales Havana is an elegant capital of classic American cars, old forts, colonial streets and salsa rhythms. You travel west to Vinales to walk through tobacco fields and lush countryside surrounded by sheer-sided mountains and learn how cigars are made. Across the crocodile-infested Zapata Marshlands, you pause at the historic Bay of Pigs, where the U.S. military invasion was repelled and on to the lively town of Cienfuegos. Here you’ll take a boat trip to fishing villages and explore a haunted castle. History, Nature & Beaches From the preserved colonial city of Trinidad you take a boat trip for some snorkelling on the coral reef and a chance to swim off Caribbean island beaches. You head into the mountains for forest walks and have the opportunity to swim in mountain pools. At Santa Clara relive the final stages of the revolution before travelling to Varadero which has over 20km of white sandy beaches lapped by warm shallow waters. |
