Our Cuban Getaway
8 Day Cuba Itinerary
We liked the balance between learning from guides and having free time to explore. Our 7-day vacation in Cuba was educational, fun, and relaxing.
Arriving in Cuba to a warm welcome…
We had our first trip to Cuba in January. Juan and Daniel helped us plan the trip accommodating what we were most interested in seeing and doing. Daniel welcomed us at our first casa with a cell phone to contact him as needed. He also saw us off at the airport.
The different sides of Cuba…
In Trinidad, the contrast with Havana is interesting. There are a lot of interesting archaeological sites to visit, and leaving the city to see the mountains and beautiful countryside was a great decision. The beach at Varadero was beautiful! I was glad we stayed in a bungalow versus the hotel — it was much quieter!
The perfect balance for our vacation…
Anywhere changed the itinerary as requested, made suggestions, and the guides we had were personable, well-informed and forthcoming in answering our questions about Cuba. All the excursions were worthwhile. We had just the right balance between time on our own to explore and guided trips that taught us so much.
