Cuba Explorer Trips

Both the tour leader, Ernesto, and the bus driver, were exceptional. Ernesto was one of the best tour leaders we have ever had, full of information and always helpful. Bus driver was a very safe driver, and also engaged with the tour group.

Wow! What an adventure! As always cycling is a wonderful way to immerse yourself in a country! Every day we saw a different side to Cuba, and every day Cuba surprised me! The lack of reliable power, internet, limited food options (cabbage every meal!) and sometimes even no water, was occasionally challenging but this was always outweighed by the friendliness and resilience of the Cuban people; there was always a Plan B! Arley, our tour leader, was clearly very experienced and had a good command of the English language. He went out of his way to ensure we understood the history and complexities of the place. Everything went super smooth and that was down to Arley, Daniel the mechanic and Joel the driver. A great team! Don’t expect to cycle fast, the conditions of the roads were very poor and we had to cycle slowly both up and down the undulating terrain, due to the potholes and the uneven road surfaces. Cuba is a country with many problems and a difficult economy but somehow Cubans get by with their resilience, music, salsa, sunshine and a little bit of rum!

The trip was very enjoyable. It gave a good insight into how the country operates. The tour guide was excellent, he was very helpful and friendly and was gave lots of interesting information about the country. The country seemed very safe. The coach and driver used for the trip were both of a high standard. All of the people we met were very friendly as well. You do need to go with an expectation that some of the infrastructure does not operate as you would be used to in other countries. There may not be electricity or water for a few hours each day. The hotels and guest houses are not the same standard as at home. We were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food we head. The choices available were fairly limited but all of the meals we had were very enjoyable. The food was fresh and cooked to a high standard. Paying for things in restaurants and shops was confusing but you soon get used to how things work and adapt. Take cash with you in euros or dollars and do expect to be able to use credit cards. We would definitely recommend the trip but just go with a relaxed attitude and take things as they come.

The tour Cuba Libre despite of a very difficult economic situation in the country is a fantastic way not only of enjoying the hiking, sightseeing and resting but a very good way on reflection on the past, present and the future of the country. Thanks to fantastic guide Alberto and remarkable driver Renee, we were able to see the whole country. The guides in mountain left us with absolutely unbelievable knowledge about the nature and history of Cuba. Alex was able to attract the national bird so we could even be able to take a picture of it. I would recommend this tour to everybody who are looking for adventure and have interest in history, nature and people of Cuba. This is the country where people live in rich natural beauty along the one of the most fascinated history.

We had a real adventure and this was my first experience with G Adventures. Cuba was exciting and a challenge at times but knowing G were there along the way to help and advise us we had a great time. G made our holiday hassle free, thank you.
