The "Cuba Libre!" trip starts and ends in Havana. It is an active and outdoor trip that takes 15 days taking you through Bartolome Maso, Vinales, Camaguey and 5 other destinations in Cuba. "Cuba Libre!" is a guided small group trip that includes accommodation, transport, meals and others.

In timeless Cuba, fifties-style American cadillacs roll through the faded colonial streets, while in the music halls rum flows freely. Beyond the island's iconic cities, find wild landscapes, from forests to dramatic limestone hills, as well as the beautiful Caribbean coastline.



Colonial Trinidad - Music bursts from every corner of this colourful, cobbled old town; explore it from privately run homestays and get a deeper experience of local life



Escambray Mountains - Walk through mountain forests, swim in fresh water pools and camp out under the stars



Revolutionary history - Get underneath the revolution with visits to Castro and Che's mountain hideout as well as the Bay of Pigs museum.
