Discover Cuba:
8 Day Tour from Varadero to Havana
Shrouded in mystery for the last 50 years, you now have the
opportunity to visit the captivating country of Cuba. This special
people-to-people program allows you to share meaningful
interactions with Cubans while enjoying the rich history and
culture of this amazing country.
On this Cuba tour, interact with Old Styler car owners, farm
workers, local business owners, and community members to learn
about life here through captivating educational activities and
conversations. Highlights include a visit to a print shop that still
employs traditional printing and binding methods; an interactive
dance lesson; a ride in an Old Styler car; lunches at organic farms,
where you can engage in discussions with the staff and owners
about farm–to–table processes and Cuba’s free enterprise system;
a visit with local children; a visit to the studio of artist José Fuster,
known as the “Picasso of the Caribbean;” and a meeting with
young children learning acrobatics and circus skills.
You’ll also enjoy a guided walk in Old Havana, a UNESCO World
Heritage Site, and a guided nature walk in Las Terrazas Biosphere
Reserve, where you’ll learn about the area’s unique flora and fauna.
Hemingway fans will be delighted to visit his beloved home, where
he lived in Cuba for 30 years, and to see his fishing boat, El Pilar.
You’ll also visit Cuba’s lush tobacco region, where you’ll even have
a chance to try rolling your own cigar!
All of this and more await you on this value-minded Cuba tour.
You’ll come away with a deep understanding of Cuba and its
people on this once-in-a-lifetime vacation experience!
