Tailor made vacations in Cuba
Tours & vacations in 2018 & 2019

Memorable parts? Meeting the warm, friendly people in cuba, our hosts at home stays and our wonderful guides. The hiking was great too. Tips?

The most memorable was visiting a 75 year old lady and her son living in what is left of a 200+ years old hacienda in the mountains surrounding Soroa, descendants of slaves who had worked on that farm.

We enjoyed meeting the enthusiastic and friendly people in the cities as well as the expertly led tours in the countryside. Most enjoyable. We were well supported but also had lots of freedom. (more)David Nevill

Definitely the friendly hosts at the casa particulars, so happy & helpful, given my limited Spanish, that made it even better in a way, so we both had to 'work' at communicating. The historical areas w/ good guides, helped to bring history alive. The scuba diving at the Bay of Pigs was ok, but the divemasters were very good, so good for father-son vacation (more)Thomas Holthus

The most memorable was 50 miles offshore Scuba Diving in the Garden of the Queens...this is a healthy reef with sharks to nudibranchs.

Memorable parts? We enjoyed all the places we went to but... We loved Havana - it's a vibrant place with live music on every street corner and in every bar. Wandering around the streets in old Havana both during the day and in the evening was great and there is lots to see -lovely squares, colonial buildings, palaces, museums, cathedral, harbour plenty of old American cars........ It was good just to find a cafe or bar and watch the world go by. We enjoyed staying with Basita in Vinales... (more)Sue Rice
