Overview

Get into the Cuban swing over just 11 days, dancing salsa in the cobbled backstreets and following in Hemingway’s footsteps. Think vintage cars, classic cocktails, jungle-clad mountains and rolling tobacco hills. First, you’ll wander through the atmospheric streets of Old Havana, a tangle of colored balconies and tumble-down grace. Then, you’ll head for the hills, riding horseback through the lush tobacco valley of Viñales and ambling through the coffee plantations of Las Terrazas, a pioneering eco-project. You’ll end your trip in Trinidad, a perfectly preserved colonial town packed with secret rum bars.
