Welcome to Cuba!
A member of Cuba 360 will pick you up at the airport, look for our logo with your name on it (or the name of the person in your party who booked the holiday). Next, you will be transferred to your accommodation.
There are several options of places to check out during the evenings. After all, Havana’s nightlife is as unique as its culture and history. We’ll be happy to arrange some of them for you if you want us to. Here are some of the options:
– Visit the Cuban Art Factory (or FAC as locals call it), a space that joins together good drinks with some of the best Cuban contemporary art (Photography, Sculpture, Interior Design, Fashion, Painting, Music, Film, Theatre, etc.). The Cuban Art Factory only opens on weekends and sometimes closes for special events that happen in Havana.
– Head to San Carlos de La CabaΓ±a fortress and witness the Cannon Shot Ceremony, a unique and picturesque show that has been happening every night for the last 300 years.
– Enjoy a unique show at world-famous Tropicana Cabaret, one of the few bastions of Havana’s Las Vegasβstyle nightlife to survive the revolution.
Take a walking tour around the heart of Cuba, Old Havana. Discover the magic that hides in every corner of this audacious city. More than 500 years of history make this the perfect place to unleash your curiosity. Hundreds of buildings from the 19th, 18th, 17th, and even 16th centuries spread around the narrow streets of this romantic city. Walk around this open air museum and delight yourself with the infinity of amazing views that go around in every direction, making impossible not to look and try to capture the moment with your camera. Wander around all the main squares, all of them with their own special places you shouldnβt miss. Also, have a look at the majestic cathedral that stands as an icon of the city, its history and architecture. Discover iconic places like the National Capitol, the Paseo del Prado, the Floridita, La Bodeguita del Medio, the Parque Central, etc.
Jump in a convertible car and explore the more modern parts of the city. Drive through different neighborhoods and discover the highlights of Vedado and Center Havana. Have a look at the Revolution Square, where Fidel Castro used to give endless speeches in front of thousands of his supporters. Drive by the Colon Cemetery, one of the biggest and most important in the world. Enjoy the breeze at El Malecon, Havana’s evocative 7km-long sea drive, a favored meeting place for assorted lovers, philosophers, poets, traveling minstrels, fishers and wistful Florida-gazers. Some of the landmarks weβll see include the American Embassy, the Hotel Nacional, Havanaβs Forest and many more.
Wander along the Callejon de Hamel, Havana’s high temple of Afro-Cuban culture. A whole street full of mural paintings and shrines. The project started back in the 90βs, when artist Salvador Gonzalez decided to repair the deteriorated facades of houses in the alley and covered them with murals related to the Afro-Cuban syncretism. Sunday is the best day to visit it, since itβs when the alley shows its true spirit. That day, the neighbors, dressed up as ancient gods of Yoruba Pantheon, Orishas, welcome visitors and drums go aloud.
Adventure into western Havana and discover Fusterlandia, a huge tilework masterpiece built by local artist Jose Fuster over the last 20 years. If GaudΓ reincarnates and decides to go for a tropical spin, this is it. Fusterβs work has covered several suburban blocks with whimsical but highly stylized public art. The centerpiece is the artistβs own house, which you can explore as you check on the different galleries where some of his art is sold, including ceramic tiles and paintings.
Discover ViΓ±ales Valley, one of Cubaβs most magnificent natural settings. Known for its fertile soil, which along with its natural micro-climate, make the land suitable to grow some of the finest tobacco in Cuba, hence, the world. Our first stop will be at Los Jazmines, a lookout point from where you can enjoy the beauty of ViΓ±alesβs landscape.
In our day around this lovely town,
weβll visit the Prehistoric Mural, stunning wall painting on the side of a mountain, and the Indian Cave with a boat trip through a subterranean section of the San Juan river. Weβll enjoy lunch at one of the local restaurants, where traditional dishes are made with ingredients that go straight from the farm to the table. After lunch, weβll visit one of the local tobacco plantations where farmers will explain the process of (artisanal) cigar production. This visit is a great opportunity to witness how people live in the countryside, and the good impact tourism makes in their lives.
Today, you can build your own day by choosing one of the following sets of activities:
– Letβs have a look at one of Havana’s oldest and most famous cigar businesses, the Real FΓ‘brica de Tabacos PartagΓ‘s was founded in 1845 by Spaniard Jaime PartagΓ‘s. It was built in response to the increase in demand this industry experienced during the second half of the 19th century. Specializing in full-bodied cigars, today some 400 workers toil for up to 12 hours a day in here rolling such famous cigars as Montecristos and Cohibas. In your visit, youβll learn about the long and refined process of cigar manufacturing. Later, learn about the Rum production in Cuba with a visit to Havana Clubβs Rum Museum. The evolution and history of the whole process will be explained to you in a guided visit, which includes a tasting of a seven-year-old aΓ±ejo (aged rum) at the end of the tour, along with the opportunity to buy some of the precious liquid.
– Take a salsa lesson. If you love salsa, then you sure know there is no place like Cuba to master this contagious rhythm. In a country where people are born with music in their blood, dancing salsa is just part of every dayβs life. So taking a salsa lesson with one of our virtuous salsa instructors is a must if you are in Havana. It doesnβt matter if you are a beginner or you already know how to dance, the lesson will be personalized to your skill level. Next, weβll show you one of our favorite spots in the whole city, a rooftop terrace in Old Havana. Here, youβll learn how to make a mojito and a canchanchara, two classic Cuban cocktails. There are non-alcoholic options as well. Youβll be able prepare your own and you can drink as many as you like.
Please note: These optional activities are included in the itinerary you choose, so there is no extra cost for them.
Transfer to Havanaβs International airport. Itβs time to say goodbye to Cuba, at least for now. Itβs sad to see you go back to your country, but this adventure together has come to an end. We hope to see you again in our country, until then: Take care, weβll miss you π.





Some useful information
Estimated travel times
- Havana’s Airport to accommodation: 30 minutes
- Havana to ViΓ±ales: 3 hours
Spending money on tour
Everyone spends money at different rates, and in addition to that, many of your major expenses such as accommodation, private transportation between destinations, airport transfers, entrance fees to activities, tour guide and two lunches are already included. Youβll just need enough money to cover the rest of your meals, drinks, tips and souvenirs.
If you are looking at the possibility of booking some extra activities you should bring some additional money for that too. Also, some souvenirs are more expensive than others, you might want to bring some nice cigars and rum back home, make sure you include those in your budget calculation as well.
All in all, we recommend bringing around 60 CUC per person per day. The CUC (Cuban Convertible Peso) is valued 1:1 with the US dollar (not taking into consideration exchange fees, which tipically take the exchange rate down to 87 cents of a CUC for each US dollar).
Accommodation on tour
This tour is priced to stay in Casaβs/ B&Bβs. The Casaβs we have hand selected are not exactly as the standard Casaβs you will find in Cuba, we have chosen to partner with them because of their excellent, friendly and reliable service. They are run more like your traditional B&Bβs but still offer a unique cultural experience. While they shouldnβt be compared to modern Western hotels, the rooms will have air-conditioning, private en suite facilities, hot and cold water and have generally been recently renovated to a beautiful standard. Location is another important factor; The Casa’s we use are always within walking distance of the city centers, which will give you easy access to restaurants, bars , museums, etc.Β
Staying in cubaβs casas particulares is an ideal way to gain an insight into the country and its people.
Not sold on staying at a Casa?
Thatβs OK, we can certainly look to upgrade your accommodation to 4* or 5* properties, depending on your budget. It is worth noting some accommodation providers in Havana are to be found in older buildings without elevators. If you believe that your physical capabilities will make it difficult to climb stairs, simply let us know. We will be able to find you a suitable alternative.
