Cuba Top Destination - Trinidad

Cuba Top Destination - Trinidad

Nestled between the turquoise Caribbean Sea and the forested peaks of the Sierra Escambray, the colonial city of Trinidad seems to have it all. Colorful colonial architecture, beautiful beaches, and fantastic hiking opportunities make it one of Cuba's top destinations. The city made its mark in the 18th-century sugar rush, and the opulent buildings of that era still standing today give Trinidad its UNESCO World Heritage status. Live music and dance concerts take place in the city's plazas most evenings, surrounded by grand facades and towering palms. Pine forests, waterfalls, and white-sand beaches are just a short distance from the center of Trinidad, offering natural riches to compliment a cultural tour of this lovely city.

Cuba Top Destination - Varadero

Cuba Top Destination - Varadero

Just 90 miles (145 km) from the capital city of Cuba lies a tiny piece of land bordered on one side by white-sand beaches and densely packed mangrove forests on the other. This is Varadero, one of Cuba's top destinations and one of the Caribbean's most stunning beaches. While this is one of Cuba's busiest tourist destinations, the lack of beachside high-rises and abundance of laid back Cuban vibes helps Varadero maintain a relaxed atmosphere. With cool ocean breezes, warm waters, and oh-so-comfortable resorts, what more is there to do than chill? With more than 30 dive sites offshore and a plethora of other ocean adventures on offer, it won't be hard for you to find ways to fill your time between sunbathing. Don't forget to head back to the sand in time for sunset though, preferably with a fresh mojito in hand.

A city steeped in history and bursting at the seams with a vivacious energy that is totally infectious, the capital of Cuba is a thrilling first step into this time-forgotten country. With a beautiful bay and beaches all of its own, you would be forgiven for spending your entire trip within its exotic confines. Stroll the cobblestone streets of Old Havana and marvel at the rainbow of colors that paint the old colonial buildings and shiny vintage cars; join the throngs in the Plaza de Armas – the city's central meeting point for more than 500 years, and follow the music that reverberates from every street corner to find your favorite sound. From Cathedrals to Cabaret and Che Guevara to sunset strolls on the seafront, there is a seemingly endless list of best things to do in Havana. By the end of your stay in the city, you'll probably be singing "my heart is in Havana" too.
