Habana | Pinar del Rio | Vinales | Habana

A trip to Cuba's most famous valley, on the west side of the island, to Pinar Del Rio and Vinales.

After breakfast you will be picked up by our vehicle from the hotel by your Tour Leader (your guide), for your departure to the province of Pinar Del Rio and the homonymous city. The region is where the best tobacco grows and where the largest production of cigarettes in the world takes place. In the factory we will visit, we will see how some of the most famous brands of cigars are made and you will have the opportunity to meet the best Cuban cigar craftsman. Optionally, those who wish to do so will be able to buy pura, coffee and rum from the factory shop.

Continuing through the Vinales Valley we will stop at Los Jazmines to enjoy the majestic valley goddess from above. Karstic limestone formations (Mogotes) shaped over the centuries and a rich tropical vegetation constitute a unique landscape. At this point (optional) you can enjoy a coffee or refreshment.

The next place to visit is the Indian Cave (Cueva del Indio) where the stalactites, stalagmites and the water element of the route - part of it is done by safe boats - create a special setting. After leaving the cave, a visit to a local market follows, for those who might want to buy tourist difference and also folk art items.

Concluding our tour of Vinales, we will have lunch at the best restaurant in the area serving fine local cuisine accompanied by live music from the orchestra.

On the way out and before returning to Havana we will visit the Mural of Prehistory (Mural de la Prehistoria), where we will see the evolution of species from the Ammonites to Hommo Sapiens.

Upon arrival in Havana the Tour Leader will give you whatever information you want for your free evening.
