26 Jul 10 Multi Centre Cuba Holidays.
Cuba is such a big Island that it makes it ideal for multi centre holidays. There is so much to do and see that sometimes - depending on the itinerary - 2 weeks are not enough.
This amazing Caribbean destination has a lot to offer and sets apart from the rest of the islands in the area. Cuba possesses a lot of attributes that make it really unique. Its beautiful beaches on either side of the archipelago are today the main attraction for holiday seekers.
Varadero and Guardalavaca are the most popular beach locations in Cuba. In fact they were the only beaches with infrastructure before the tourist boom in Cuba in late 90's. Later on other beach destinations followed such as Cayo Largo, Cayo Coco, Santa Lucia, Cayo Guillermo and the newest Cayo Ensenacho.
European and African influences, mixed with aboriginal and Asian ingredients, gave rise to the features that differentiate Cuba from the rest of the islands in the Caribbean. Cuba for Centuries was the centre of the Spanish metropolis in America. This explain why its architecture is so striking and its culture so rich.
Landscapes are the inspiration of artists all around the world. The astonishing Viales Valley is a sort of mountainous region that only exists in Cuba and in no other island in the Caribbean. This location is home to the best tobacco leafs in the World.
Havana - The Capital - is a must if you go on holidays to Cuba. It certainly has the best vibe. There is music in every Caf and a Caf in every corner of the Old Quarter. Beautiful squares to rest and watch the people going bye.
Other provinces and towns worth visiting are Trinidad and Baracoa (these two are the oldest villages in Cuba that still preserve an entirely colonial architecture). Santiago de Cuba is another important location mainly from the historic point of view. It was from Santiago de Cuba where all the uprisings, independent movements and revolutions started in Cuba.
If you want to know the real Cuba you will have to plan your trip with real care. A research about the different locations is a good start. Getting in touch with a tour operator that has the knowledge of Cuba is crucial. It is not going to be more expensive because your holiday is tailor made. In most cases it works actually cheaper than the usual beach holiday. I hope this has encouraged you to experience the real Cuba and wish you an excellent journey.
