This was a great whistle stop tour of Cuba giving a fantastic insight into Cuban life, Politics and history thanks to our excellent tour leader Jose. Lots of time was spent travelling in the bus but that was anticipated as per the trip notes. However it meant short stays in each destination, especially Santiago de Cuba. The trip met and exceeded my personal expectations but I would have liked extra time in certain places. I really enjoyed the jungle trek and sleeping out under the stars.
A packed holiday that will keep you busy for the duration. If travelling in the hotter months, please bear this in mind as it makes the cycling worthy of a "Difficult" rating regarding Day 9 in particular!
Excellent organisation and support with a wonderful knowledgeable friendly guide who had perfect english and was super efficient and helpful when one of our group temporarily lost passport and money. The bikes were excellent, the cycling routes stunningly beautiful with no traffic but the road surfaces were quite rough. The guest house accommodation is very friendly, sometimes basic but always clean and safe.
