DAY 1 | Welcome to Havana
You’ll be greeted as you step off the plane and expedited through arrival formalities. In a classic vintage automobile, we’ll take you to your choice of deluxe or luxury hotel. Then sit down with our Cuban concierge to put the finishing touches on your itinerary – including personalized dining reservations at the finest privately-run paladares.
DAY 2 | Classic Havana
This morning, you might visit a factory where Cuban cigars are hand-rolled with techniques that have changed little over the generations.
A walk through Old Havana and a visit to Finca Vigia, where Hemingway lived, would also be good for this first day! Tonight, chauffeured transportation in a vintage convertible will take you to the restaurant of your choice, perhaps a Havana legend like La Guarida, which opened in 1996, or a new venue like Tierra – set inside a vibrant cultural center. meals b
DAY 3 | Cuban culture + cuisine
This morning, you might join a chef to explore one of Havana’s markets. Learn about Cuba’s dual-currency system, see the wide variety of farm-fresh produce, and help to select items for a cooking lesson and lunch. If you have a passion for the arts, we can arrange gallery visits tailored to your interests – from painting and sculpture to photography and printmaking. You might begin this evening with a drink at the Hotel Nacional, an Art Deco landmark, and then continue to the paladar of your choice . b
DAY4 | Architecture+dance
After breakfast, your might enjoy an architectural tour beyond Old Havana to learn about the city’s architectural diversity, from American-inspired mid-century modernism to the Constructivist style of the Russian Embassy. Then you could join a dance professional for an afternoon
that’s part history lesson and part Rumba class! Tonight, you might dine at La Esperanza, a paladar decorated like a 1950’s Cuban home! b
DAY 5 | A final chance to shop
Why not stop by Almacenes San Jose, the city’s largest open-air crafts market, on your way to the airport for your homeward flight. b
