Pre-trip Extension to Pinar del Rio


Journey from the eastern tip of Cuba across the island to its far western shores. Although restricted politically and economically for the past 50 years, Cuba’s borders have remained open to wildlife, and its landscapes have remained virtually untouched. Begin in Santiago, a city whose rich diversity has produced some of the most exciting music, art, and architecture in the Caribbean. Along the way, meet and witness Afro- Cuban dancers, artists, economists, musicians and scientists. With an escort, visit the east side of Guantanamo Bay overlooking the Guantanamo U.S. Naval Base before arriving in Baracoa, which located on the eastern shores. Enjoy a journey by boat up Cuba’s biggest river, the Toa. Discover the crown jewel of Cuba’s colonial cities, Trinidad, and explore caves, rivers, falls, canyons, and hills. Spend four days touring historic Havana; see its architecture and urban gardening, and experience its art, music, people, and cuisine. This may be one of the most comprehensive trips to Cuba that exists.
