Cuban Adventures Avis 46

Highly recommend. Itinerary was varied. Both indoor and outdoor activities. Great local tour guide. Tour guide went above and beyond for each of us. Great Value for the money.

Cuban Adventures was excellent with preparation and making sure all your paper work was completed. Very good company! I high recommend traveling with them!

We just finished touring Cuba, with Cuban adventures. We were on their support the Cuban People, 9 day ‘Cuban Life Tour’. Our tour guide Yoani, was exceptional in all regards! Excellent English, and a background as a collegiate history professor. Cuban Adventures, use only local guides and, are very green minded, which was a plus. Our accommodations, being US citizens, were all privately owned Casas, including a boutique hotel in Havana. All meticulously clean, with warm welcoming hosts and hostesses. Our included breakfasts were something out of a travel magazine, including the best flan I’ve ever had in Vinales. All, of our included, as well as non included meals were great. Yoani’s incredible Knowledge along with his sense of humor melded us into family right away. If you want a great experience seeing all aspects of Cuba, visit their well thought out website. We did a 4 person private tour, following a published tour, for just a bit more. We will talk of our Cuban adventure for many years to come. Thanks Cuban Adventures, Ed and Patti

So pleased with our Cuban Adventure experience. We had a kind, knowledgeable, fun loving guide , Yoani also goes by Joe.
Learned so much about the people, culture, and country. Everything went smoothly, accommodation were clean and the host and staff friendly and welcoming.
Our van a was brand new, even had a small fridge to keep our water cold. Dining was top notch, we had a friend in our group with dietary issues, Yoani, always called ahead to advise our host and restaurants.
We did the 8 day culture tour with 4 of us.
First time doing a tour and this was perfect way to see and experience Cuba.

Our recent trip exceeded all expectations.the tour went smoothly from beginning to end.
Our guide Rayner was superb.He looked after us very well and always had safety first .He was very informative.gave clear instructions and recommendations.
He was courteous with a great sense of humour as were our bus driver and mechanic.

Great information and help before and during the trip. Awesome tour leader! 15-day tour itinerary covered a lot of the island, but it was worth it. Good value for the money with a lot of meals and activities included. Loved the casa particulares = great way to meet people. Group size is small, and I love that. Can't imagine going to Cuba with anyone else!!

I ABSOLUTELY enjoyed our trip to Cuba with Cuban Adventures. This is the organization I will recommend to everyone (and there have already been many) who are interested in experiencing Cuba. From the minute I booked with Cuban Adventures until I arrived home, this company was responsive and helpful in ensuring my trip went without issues. Our guide, Yanet, was the perfect host. I will return to Cuba, and when I do, I will travel with Cuban Adventures.

The 8 Day Original Cuba Tour which I took in early January was exactly what I’d hoped it would be. No, it was even better! How often can you say that about any travel arrangements you make these days. I certainly didn’t want the Cruise Line Tour offered to guest of ships docked in Havana. I wanted to see the entire island, meet and hear life stories of Cuban citizens and travel with a small group led by an experienced tour leader. From owners of a small coffee plantation and a fourth-generation owner of a cigar tobacco farm near Vinales I hear stories spanning 75 years. Then a short hike to a hidden falls with a deep swimming pond. In Cienfuegos and Trinidad, I found equally interesting sites and people The a “casa particulares “in which we stayed and ate breakfast were very comfortable and the families which owned them became our friends. Havana too was crazy and laid back, all at the same time. I highly recommend Cuban Adventures for travel within Cuba.

I Had such a great time and enjoyed all the experiences, places, and things we did. I loved the fact I saw what I wanted along with learning new and interesting facts about Cuba and its history. The People were friendly and welcoming.
Our Guide Alejandro was excellent in every way. He was always energetic, thoughtful, and going out of his way to accommodate us. He was full of facts, history, and information. If there were any unexpected hiccups they were dealt with, with little interruptions if any to the trip. He was the first up and the last to go to bed. On a trip like this, the guide can make it or break it and he differently made this trip. Alejandro, you are the best, thanks for your hard work, and patience, and for making it an unforgettable wonderful time. This will be one of my best memories.

Despite being in a group I felt the tour was personalized for me. This group offers a great itinerary that no other group has for this price. Claudia welcomed us warmly with her love of Cuba and flexibility. She gave us a tour was based on extensive knowledge that she communicated was clear. She was enthusiastic and excited for all of us. She took us to amazing places to eat as well.

She was able to accommodate so many different needs while insuring a unique experience. Cuban adventures has a great itinerary with a great pace. I did not miss a thing and experienced things just so unique to this tour. The organic farm dinner in vinales at sunset is not to be missed. No other tour offers this experience to meet with the woman running the farm and enjoy a wonderful curated family style dinner was my favorite spot for dinner.

Our host homes were chosen with care. Cuba sets the standard for service. I felt very welcomed. Homes were clean, well maintained and ready to Accommodate our wandering.

I have zero regrets on choosing this group. Price, flexibility, choice of places to visit perfect for a first time visitor or returning guest. Claudia will make you feel like friend as soon as she meets you. Her sweeping knowledge feeds a curious traveler like myself.
Will go again.

Guide Yasiel and Cuban Adventures provided a Colorful, fun, safe, educational, organized and personalized tour. Stays at casas in Havana, Vinales, Cienfuegos and Trinidad provided opportunity to interact one to one with Cuban people. Experiences with locals at tobacco farm and our small group doing actual work at eco farm to table restaurant Finca Agroecologica El Paraiso in Vinales before eating- and drinking the awesome Antistress cocktail -was a highlight. Lovely people, food, drinks, history, scenery, music, salsa dancing. Highly recommend.

I joined the 10 day active tour at the end of November. A fantastic experience from start to finish. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and the tour program kept us busy whilst also allowing time to explore on your own. I would highly recommend Cuba to anyone who hasn't been and Cuban Adventures do a great job of showing what this beautiful country has to offer.

My brother and I joined a group of 12 travelers (mostly Americans) for the 8 day original tour. We had a fantastic trip with our guide Estefan! We arrived in Havana early the first day and did two other Cuban Adventure day tours: Murals and Mosaics and then the Classic Car Ride, both of which we would recommend (Lazaro was a great guide for both of the day trips!).

My favorite part of the trip was visiting the small tobacco farming town of Viñales. I thought I wouldn't be that interested in it because I don't like tobacco products, but I had an amazing time anyway! Although it's a tourist town, it's also got a nice, homey feel and the locals were incredibly nice. We happened to be there the night of a block party where they shut down the main street and danced all night. We also explored an old cave just a short drive outside the town. Also, we went on a walking tour of a local coffee mill and tobacco farm with an incredible guide, Floyd, where they let you try a pure, hand-rolled Cuban cigar. We brought work gloves to donate the farmers and they were very appreciative of the gift.

The casas that we stayed in in Cienfuegos and Trinidad were gorgeous and nothing like I was expecting from a trip to Cuba. My host in Trinidad recommended that we check out the nightclub called "La Cueva" which is located inside of a cave. Despite the sketchy, dark 10-minute trek from Casa de la Música, the club was honestly a one-of-a-kind experience that I would highly recommend.

Our guide for the trip, Estefan, was fantastic and tailored the trip to the needs of a diverse group of 12 travelers. He always had great recommendations on places to eat and organized several dinners for the group that would have been hard to know about without his guidance. He also shared so much knowledge about the history and culture of his country!

I would recommend knowing a little bit of Spanish to enhance your experience since many of the owners of the casas don't speak much English. However, it is not necessary as the guides speak English very well and the casa owners are very friendly regardless of language barriers.

The drink prices were super affordable so you can drink mojitos to your heart's content.

The trip was perfect from beginning to end starting with our guide Estefan who was so eager to make our trip memorable which is certainly did. I took the 15 day tour and wish I would’ve taken the 20 day. That’s how much I enjoyed every minute. We had a mini bus and a wonderful driver and I guide explained everything along the way but also let us have time to just enjoy the spectacular views that are all over the country. Our accommodations were great and the hosts were so happy to have us. The food was great and we took a few optional tours which were wonderful, one was the boat down the river and lunch at the beach and the other one was the catamaran trip in Trinidad. Both were well worth the money. I cannot wait to come back and am planning on February or March for an eight day trip. Great company and wonderful people and the safest and cleanest country I have ever been in

Excellent! Small group, well organized, and had a good pace. Our guide, Camilo, had us laughing and learning the entire time. Even the bus rides were pleasant! Nice balance of activities and free time. The Cuban people were welcoming and generous. Thank you Cuban Adventures... can't wait to come back!

Sorry, but there aren't enough superlatives to express how happy we are with our trip to Cuba. We elected to go with a "private tour", for my wife and me. From the planning help we got from Zarelys and Yanet to the attention we received EVERY day from our guides, Lazaro and Mandi, everything went way beyond our expectations. The accommodations and our hosts immediately embraced us and we learned so much from them, not just about where to go and what to see, but about life in Cuba. EVERYONE we met treated us like friends. That means the taxi drivers, the housekeepers at the casas particulares...everyone. Havana was fascinating; Vinales was beautiful; Varaderos was so relaxing and fun. I could go on, but I think you get the idea!

I'm so glad we went with Cuban Adventures it was an amazing tour. Our tour guide Camilo was amazing, funny, and knowledgeable. While Luis our bus driver was attentive to our needs and a great driver. I would 100% book a tour with Cuban Adventures especially with Camilo and Luis.

Our planning advisor Yanet and our guide Armando made this a truly memorable trip. We would only use them and recommend them to anyone planning a trip. Personal, private touring at its finest

We went on an 8 day tour with this company. They are accommodating to the needs of American citizens that are allowed to visit Cuba to support the Cuban people.
The guide was very good, the group was very small. They gave good tips to help prepare visitors before arriving in Cuba.
The days were full with activities, good value for your money.
I highly recommend using this company.

An outstanding tour - 8 Day Original Tour - in value, planning, and sights. Bring your energy, flexibility and curiosity and you'll be rewarded. Suggest packing lightly - due to cobblestone streets and flights of stairs to reach accommodations. Would suggest tacking on a few extra days in Habana at the end. So very grateful I finally experienced Cuba and its people.
