Tours in Cuba

In a country so large and with so much to offer the best way to get to know it is by doing a tour around the island. In few days you will learn almost everything you need to know about its culture, architecture, religion and way of life in general.
There are lots of themes available you can do a culture oriented tour, and architecture one, a bird watching program or so many others available. Or you can simply have a tailor made one designed just to suit your demands.
Among the most popular Cuba tours around the island that have been already designed you can find The Tour of the West, The Pearl of the Caribbean, The Cradle of The revolution and Seven Villages. Most of these tours last from one week to ten days and this can be the perfect duration to extend them with few days in a beach resort to then relax after a much needed rest.
Tour guides in Cuba are probably the most connoisseurs of this amazing Caribbean island. They are requested to be graduated form University and have to go to special courses to be trained to be professional tour guides. For not to mention that so far in Cuba only tour guides are allowed to stay in hotels and travel the island with tourist. So definitely are the tour guides who know more about Cuba.
Now let us look at one of these tours. The Pearl of the Caribbean tour which last 6 nights with 7 days is perfect for those looking to know the culture and history of Cuba. It is concentrated in the occidental half of the island visiting cities like Havana, Pinar del Rio, Trinidad and Cienfuegos.
To take a look at another example let us point out the Cradle of The Revolution Tour. It is totally oriented to explore the route followed by the revolutionaries led by Castro against Batista's dictatorship. Its duration is 5 nights and it takes place in the most oriental part of the island. This tour can also be combined with some few nights relaxing in Guardalavaca beach resort.
In any case if you need assistance you can always get in touch but my honest opinion and being my self an ex tour guide in Cuba the best way to explore this island and get to know its culture is to book either one of the existing private or collective tours or asked for a tailor made tour designed to suit your demands. These packages are not as expensive as when you do accommodation, transfers, excursions and visit to museums on your own.
