Cuban Tour Highlights

cuba womens tour

Havana

Throughout the tour we will meet some extraordinary Cuban women of all generations – restaurant/cafe/bar owners, local craftswomen, women in the Arts, and entrepreneurs.

Read More

All specialty activities will be optional and paid locally. In some cases, there may be an activity fee, or a donation request, or just an opportunity to purchase products at the women-owned business. Have a guided walking tour of the historic center of Havana (approx 2 hours). During this tour we will have our first opportunity to visit a women owned designer clothing boutiques, Dador and Clandestina. The neighbourhoods of Old Havana and Central Havana are some of the places where you will feel Cuba at its most intense. Narrow streets with old crumbling buildings and full of locals who are not placed there for the tourists but rather because this is their home. You will see them working, going to school, socialising, and going about their daily lives. Simply wandering the streets will give you a new experience and fill you with many questions about how Cuba functions as a country. Vedado is another interesting part of Havana where there is a concentration of restaurants, bars, majestic mansions, and historic mafia built hotels.

Havana

female artists in its gallery and performance space, or maybe a live show with one of Cuba’s talented musicians. For dinner the tour leader will suggest a women owned and operated paladar (private restaurant).

Playa Ancón

A 10 minute drive in the opposite direction will get you to a beautiful calm Caribbean beach called Playa Ancón. If the weather is fine, your tour guide might propose a dinner bbq here to witness the sunset over the ocean.

Other optional activities in Trinidad are snorkeling, scuba diving, and a popular trek to a waterfall where you can swim in the fresh clear water spring.

Trinidad

For many visitors to Cuba, Trinidad is their standout favourite destination. No other colonial city in Cuba is so well preserved, and the local residents are extremely friendly and festive.

Read More

Trinidad is steeped in religiosity, none the least of which is Santeria, which is one of several Afro-Cuban religions. The thing however that visitors most love about Trinidad is the nightlife. There are no less than 10 live music venues all within a short walking distance. Many of these have lovely outdoor settings, in courtyards, and within the walls of old colonial ruins. Not far inland is the Valley of Sugarmills. This area of rich fertile soil is where the Trinidad colonists got most of their ludicrous wealth from. In Trinidad we have the opportunity to meet many female artisans. Local specialties include delicate embroidery and ceramics. We will meet Dady, our local day tours coordinator, and pay a visit to an artist gallery.

Santa Clara

On the way back to Havana we stop in at the town of Santa Clara, a key city in the Cuban Revolution. Upon entering Santa Clara, there is a huge statue of Ernesto Ché Guevara,

to commemorate his death and that of the revolutionaries who died along with him in Bolivia. There is also a museum here dedicated to his amazing life

Viñales

Surrounded by picturesque limestone pincushion hills (“mogotes”), Viñales is a small and culturally rich village, with friendly and welcoming residents and wide variety of outdoor activities available.

Read More

Exploring caves, hiking, biking, horseback riding or simply enjoying the views of the valley and sprawling tobacco fields below are all options. Viñales is one of the more agriculturally productive areas, so an abundance of local seasonal fruit and vegetables is always on offer such as enormous avocados and mangoes, pineapples, papaya, guava, and a several varieties of sweet potatoes. It’s one of the cooler areas of Cuba, so it’s also a nice escape from the hotter parts of the country. The nightlife is very active in this village with the local residents more than willing participants in dancing to the local live music. Here there is a whole street of women-owned casa particulares, and you will have the opportunity to take a dance lesson at a private salsa school.

Dietary Requirements info

Have dietary requirements? Please read this link first: https://www.cubagrouptour.com/food-and-drink-in-cuba

VEGETRAINIANS: Cubans are gradually awakening to vegetarianism. Many of them are aware of its existence; however, most do not understand its reasoning, and the belief that to eat well means eating meat is still firmly embedded in the nation’s consciousness. However, through the influence of tourism, more and more vegetarian options are to be found on restaurant menus in Cuba, and the cooks in the guesthouses are now quite accustomed to providing vegetarian meals. Therefore, it is not difficult to get a vegetarian meal in Cuba, although you generally won’t find much variety, and you may get tired of being offered the same (i.e., rice, beans, omelet, and salad) every day. A vegetarian dinner in the guesthouses in Cuba isn’t much cheaper than a dinner containing meat, and the reason is that vegetables on the free market in Cuba are of similar prices to those of meat.

Gluten-Free: There is little problem maintaining a strict gluten-free diet in Cuba. This is mainly because the food in Cuba is very natural (there isn’t much processed food available in Cuba). This is especially true in the guesthouses where there is also the additional advantage of being able to order specific meals and give the cook instructions about what you can and cannot eat. The guides are informed about gluten intolerance and know which ingredients to instruct the cooks to avoid.

GIVING BACK

A percentage of profit will be donated back into the community.
