    Why visit Cuba

    In Cuba you can feel the true spirit of Latin America, because here people still know how to sing, dance, enjoy life and make you live the way you once did, without the stress of tomorrow, but just with the pleasure of today. In Cuba, communism tends to become a cultural cliché, promoted by the capitalists. Fidel Castro’s bohemian image, Che Guevara’s face on t-shirts and all souvenirs in general, or the red star, make you want to discover an exotic world where these emblems are still of an amazing charm.

    Habana ViejaUNESCO World Heritage Site, Habana Vieja is ideal for a walk on foot to enjoy the colonial buildings, the perpetual holiday feeling, tropical landscapes, and street corner shops. When you get tired, climb into a convertible and cross Malecon, winding your hair, staring in the old baroque or neoclassical buildings as if being part of a romantic movie.

    Che Guevara Monument  Che Guevara Mausoleum is a monument situated in Santa Clara, Cuba and shelters the remains of Revolutionary Marxist Ernesto “Che” Guevara along with 29 other combatants executed in 1967 when Guevara tried to ignite a revolution in Bolivia. The complex is guarded by a bronze statue of 6.7 meters.

    Trinidad  The city of Trinidad founded in 1514 by Diego Velasquez de Cuellar is located in the Sancti Spiritus Province in central Cuba. Together with the surrounding area, Valle de los Ingenios was included in the UNESCO Heritage List in 1988. Trinidad, the center of the tobacco industry, preserves the colonial appearance with specific buildings in pastel colors that flank cobbled streets, squares and beautiful colonial palaces.

     Cayo Coco has a surface of 370 km² and it is the largest of the group of islands of the archipelago, declared by UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. It is linked to the shore by a pedraplen (a pebbled road built on a dyke-like structure) that facilitates connection with the other islands. Cayo Coco is the island where the action of E. Hemingway’s famous novel “The Old Man and the Sea” takes place.

    Varadero  About 140 km east of Havana, in the Hicacos Peninsula of Matanzas Province, Varadero is one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world. Also called Playa Azul, Varadero debuted as a tourist resort since 1887 when the first holiday homes were built. Avenida Primera – the central boulevard, still retains old wooden houses with red roofs. Tropical vegetation, coral reefs, the sun, sandy beaches, night clubs and casinos are a permanent attraction.
