Cuba by Bike (8 Days)

Overview

Classic cars, colonial architecture, streets without corporate logos, reusable glass bottles, organic farms – these are some of the details that make visiting Cuba a bit like travelling back in time. Part of what makes this island so special are those things that you may not fully appreciate if you rush by them in a bus or car -  that is why a bike tour is the perfect way to experience the authentic Cuba! I could try and do justice to the experience of seeing Cuba by bike but a rambunctious American writer and friend of the Cuban people (known affectionately in Cuba as ‘Ernesto’) has already written very succinctly on the merits of cycling:

“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle” – Ernest Hemmingway

This trip is perfect for active travelers who are interested in fitness, nature and culture! Our environmentally friendly tour will take you on a journey of discovery through the highlights of Cuba’s western coast including Havana, Trinidad, and Cienfuegos. Let go of your worries as you cycle through colorful, animated urban areas and picturesque pastoral landscapes. Get back in touch with both nature and yourself as you travel in one of the last places on earth where you can truly unplug.
