Cuba tours are exciting and interesting alternatives to more mundane destinations. If you have a sense of adventure, if you like romantic destinations more than glitzy high-rises, you will simply love a visit to Cuba.
If you live in the Northern hemisphere, Cuba is the ideal destination to break away from the dreary Northern winters. Not only will you find warm weather, you will also find some of the friendliest, warmest people you are ever likely to encounter.
Most tours start in Havana, the capital of Cuba. This colonial city is simply loaded with atmosphere and character. The buildings are mostly old and decaying gently. Many of the cars are even older. Walking down the street you can't help getting the feeling that you have stepped back in time.
If you want to get away from the never ending bustle of the city, take a taxi to the malecon (sea-wall) and join the locals in appreciating the gentle, salty breezes. And when the sun sets head for one of the numerous live music venues where you can easily dance until the sun rises again... Or you drop dead from fatigue.
There is more to Cuba than Havana, though. In the south of the country you will find Baracoa - in a location so splendid that Christopher Columbus was of the opinion that no human eye could ever see a place more beautiful. It is a city also known for its seafood restaurants.
The country's second largest city, Santiago de Cuba, is a heady mix of salsa, colonial churches, museums and the faint smell of revolution in the air - it is after all "the cradle of the Revolution."
The third largest city in Cuba is Camaguey. If you find this a confusing city to navigate, nobody will blame you. It was specifically planned to be confusing when it was founded in the 17th century - to keep away pirates, robbers and other attackers. There are many parks, the market garden is a beehive of activity and there are also many art galleries.
Nobody should leave Cuba without bringing a visit to Trinidad. It is considered by many to be the loveliest of all colonial cities in Cuba. Once again you will find sufficient night life to make sure you never get any sleep and during the days you can sleep off the effects of the previous night on one of the many white beaches nearby.
Whether you are looking for Cuba tours that concentrate on culture, nature, history or sport you are sure to have a life-altering experience that will stay with you long after you have left.
