Overview

“GUAMÁ VAPOR” Tour

GUAMÁ TOURIST PARK + CENTRAL AUSTRALIA MUSEUM: A Journey Through Indigenous Cuba and Revolutionary Heritage. This combined tour offers two essential perspectives of Cuban identity—its indigenous roots and its modern history. Your day begins at Guamá Tourist Park, located deep within the Zapata Peninsula. Enjoy a thrilling boat ride through mangrove-lined waterways as you head toward the iconic Taíno Village, a detailed reconstruction of Cuba’s pre-Columbian settlements. Explore artistic sculptures, traditional huts, and symbolic representations of Taíno culture while learning about their customs, daily life, and spiritual beliefs. Surrounded by untouched nature, this immersive experience feels like stepping back centuries in time.

The journey then takes you to the historic Central Australia Museum, an important landmark connected to the events of the Bay of Pigs Invasion (1961). Here, you’ll discover exhibits featuring photographs, documents, military equipment, and personal stories that bring to life one of the defining moments of Cuba’s contemporary history. Insightful and engaging, the museum offers a clear and compelling look at the social and political context that shaped modern Cuba. Together, these two sites provide a unique narrative—one that connects the ancient indigenous world with the island’s revolutionary past. It’s an enriching cultural experience designed for visitors who want to understand Cuba from its very beginnings to its modern-day legacy.
