Our 4-night escorted tour allows you to immerse yourself in the Cuban culture and to experience its lasting and historical effect. You will take a journey through Old Havana with a small group of thirty or less to visit a place largely frozen in time. Much of Havana’s history has been preserved, allowing Old Havana and its fortifications to be named as a UNESCO World Heritage site. With the city’s exceptional universal significance in mind, your visits to local artists, tobacco farms and the Angeles del Futuro children’s community project for circus and acrobatics will mean that much more.
EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE
All tours are led by experienced, local guides who, like the drivers, are bilingual. You’ll be moving all day, so be sure to pack comfortable shoes. And, though some meals and drinks are provided, you might want to think about bringing snacks, hand sanitizer, sunblock and any other small things you think might make your trip more satisfying.
