Overview
Eastern Cuba is a much less visited region of Cuba, that really packs a punch ! It has Cuba’s largest and highest mountain range , its highest peak at over 6400ft and Santiago De Cuba , the islands second largest colonial city, enjoying a Caribbean vibe and strong links to Fidel Castro and Revolution . Dotted throughout the region, delightful small colonial towns can be explored , including Gibara , Bayamo and Baracoa , the latter surrounded by wild sub tropical National Parks. There are miles of coastline , some rugged with a mountain backdrop and other areas offering world class , beautiful beaches. The people lead a simple life here and are incredibly friendly and welcoming and their love of music and dance is strong, as is their pride of being from Oriente which is often scoffed at by the “Habaneros ” from Havana .
We can tailor your holiday to suit your interests and it can be extended with the chance to relax and explore a little independently. If you like walking we can incorporate this into the holiday with both the Sierra Maestra and Baracoa offering some of the best trails in Cuba. For those who enjoy history or culture , music and dance, then a day or two longer exploring Santiago De Cuba would certainly be recommended. Alternatively enjoy a few days of relaxation in the Caribbean sun with the beaches at Guardalavaca working well with the holiday itinerary.
All our holidays can be fully guided throughout, or you can travel a little more independently and book a local guide for each visit or activity that you choose to enjoy. You can then use our private transfer service to move between each destination and add in free days for your own pursuits.
