Our newest adventure begins in the streets of Old Havana, a U.N.E.S.C.O World heritage city. The folklore of this famous city is still palpable as you walk the cobbled streets being infused by the music and culture all around you. You feel as if you're been transported back to a simpler time, a time where the vibrancy of music, art and dance energize this historic city.
From old cars to famous cigars we head West to the wilds of the Viñales. This valley is encircled by mountains and interspersed with dramatic rocky outcrops, spectacular caves and natural pools. Here the artistry of traditional techniques is still seen in agricultural production, particularly in the form of the Cohiba which you will experience firsthand.
Beautiful white sand beaches, aquamarine waters, pristine reefs are just around the corner to complete your Wild West Adventure. From the city to the country to the beach… by foot, bike, horseback and paddleboard this adventure will have you feeling wild about Cuba!
