Description
Day 1
Havana
Swing into a world that time forgot and stroll along the sweeping boulevards and elegant plazas.
Days 2-4
Baracoa
Set on a bay against a backdrop of mountains, this town has a vibrant past. Soak up the history on a beautiful beach.
Days 5-7
Santiago de Cuba
It's time to show off those salsa moves in the city that invented the dance and visit the many museums and colonial churches.
Day 8
Camaguey
Stop by the island's third largest city, a university town rich in tradition. Keep an eye out for tinajones, large clay pots traditionally used for collecting water.
This colonial city is on the doorstep of the long, picture-perfect beaches of Playa Ancon.
Days 13-15
Havana
Return to Havana for a stroll along its ocean-side walkway. A lively nightlife affords plenty of opportuntities to try some rum - in a minty mojito, daiquiri, Cuba libre or straight up on ice, there are plenty of ways to indulge.
Days 16-18
Vinales
Explore caves or hike through the limestone hills of Vinales. After all the fresh air, sit back and enjoy the views of the sprawling tobacco fields in the valleys below.
Days 19-20
Cayo Levisa
White sand and sapphire waters await on this small coral key. This is an excellent place to partake of a fresh seafood lunch.
Days 21-22
Havana
A spectacular drive past blue Atlantic waters and rocky mountain slopes marks a final return to Havana.
