As the sun sets over the ocean, your journey begins by exploring the lively streets of Havana, where you’ll explore historic sites and colorful street art guided by local artists. Then, savor Cuban flavors during a cooking class with a local chef, and feel the rhythm of Cuba with an energetic salsa lesson. Beyond that, cap off these days with a classic car ride, cruising Havana’s charming avenues as live music fills the air. Later in the week, meet local doctors and tour a clinic, learning about the famous healthcare system. 

Next, head south to Trinidad, through Cienfuegos where colonial charm meets tropical paradise. Also, wander the cobblestone streets, explore historical plazas, and relax on nearby white-sand beaches.
