This well balanced tour of western Cuba invites
you to get to know both the historic and modern
parts of Havana without having to rush from one
monument to another. On the contrary, there will
be more than enough time to fully contemplate
the richness of this capital.
Outside the city this tour takes you through the
stunning landscape of Soroa and Viñales,
the first of which is situated in the Sierra del
Rosario Biosphere Reserve and the second declared
Cultural Heritage Landscape. Both areas belong
to Pinar del Río province, home of the
famous Havana cigar. To really top it off in a
sensational way, you will visit two of Cuba's
most beautiful beaches: the famous resort of Varadero
and the exclusive Cayo Levisa, a small tropical
island with beaches of the finest white sand that
can only be reached by boat. All this and even
more in only one week. Isn't that incredible?
