“COLLECTIVE RIDE FROM HAVANA TO TRINIDAD IN CLASSIC AMERICAN CARS” Tour (2 Days / 1 Night)

Description:

Trinidad: A journey to the heart of Cuban identity. Touring the ancient city of Trinidad, on Cuba's southern coast, means much more than strolling cobblestone streets or admiring its colonial architecture. It means delving into the depths of Cuban identity, experiencing its rich past while simultaneously discovering a vibrant present that keeps the island's essence alive. Founded in 1514 as Cuba's third town, Trinidad is today a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best-preserved colonial cities in all of the Americas. Walking through its Plaza Mayor, visiting the Church of the Holy Trinity, or enjoying traditional music at the famous La Canchánchara Tavern is like stopping time and reliving the Cuba of the 18th and 19th centuries. But Trinidad isn't just history. It's also a place where cultural life pulses strongly: local artisans, musicians, and painters infuse every corner with creativity and color. Its craft markets, hospitable private homes, and lively nightlife with live music on the Escalinata (Staircase) make the city a place where tradition and modernity coexist in perfect harmony.

In addition, Trinidad's privileged location offers visitors the opportunity to complement their experience with adventures in nature:

  • The nearby Valle de los Ingenios (Sugar Mill Valley), with its old sugar mills and bell towers.
  • The beaches of Playa Ancón, considered among the most beautiful on Cuba's southern coast.
  • The Topes de Collantes Natural Park, ideal for those seeking hiking, waterfalls, and direct contact with nature.

Visiting Trinidad is discovering an authentic and eternal Cuba, where every stone, every melody, and every smile tells a story that will remain forever etched in the traveler's heart.
