Itinéraire du groupe
Land whenever suits you and a transfer takes you to your Havana accommodation. Once everyone is in, you'll meet your Soca Islands Host and the rest of the group and get a first feel for the city.
A local guide leads you on foot through Old Havana's squares and landmarks. Later you'll swap walking for a spin around the city in a classic car. The afternoon is yours.
Head west toward Viñales. On the way you'll stop at a cigar farm to see how Cuba's famous tobacco is grown and rolled, then sit down to a traditional lunch on the farm.
A countryside walk takes you among the valley's rounded limestone hills. After that, the afternoon is free to rest or explore Viñales yourself.
A long travel day toward Cienfuegos. You'll break the drive at the Girón Museum to learn what happened at the Bay of Pigs in 1961, with a chance to swim before continuing.
Continue to Trinidad and get oriented in its colorful streets. In the evening there's the option of a salsa class.
No schedule today. Trinidad's historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it's best explored slowly: pastel houses, bell towers and music in the plazas.
Start with a visit to a community project near Manaca Iznaga that supports local women artisans. Then drive north to Santa Clara to see the Che Guevara monument and other key sites before returning to Havana.
After breakfast you're free to head off whenever your onward plans require.

FAQ du voyage
Fly into and out of Varadero airport (VRA).
Yes. If you arrive on Day 1 of your adventure or book pre-tour accommodation with us, your airport arrival transfer is included. If you choose alternative pre-tour accommodation or arrive by another mode of transport, you’ll need to arrange your own arrival transfer.
Our arrival transfers are private to Soca Islands and are organised in groups based on flight times. Sometimes this means a short wait at the airport until other flights arrive.
There are no scheduled activities on the final day, so feel free to book your departure at your own convenience.
We recommend arriving before 3 pm on Day 1 to make it in time for the welcome event. But don’t worry no matter when you land, we’ll have an airport transfer ready for you.
Please Refer to your government’s travel advice or consult your local consulate. Remember, passport and visa requirements can change, so make sure to stay updated.
Excluding alcohol, we suggest budgeting around USD $40.00 per day for extras.
While we’re not medical professionals, we want to help you prepare for a safe and healthy adventure. Here are some tips:
- Consult with a healthcare professional: Schedule an appointment with your travel nurse or doctor at least eight weeks before your adventure to get any necessary vaccines or medications.
- Up-to-date medical advice:
- US residents: Check the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website.
- UK residents: Visit the NHS Fit For Travel website.
- Australian residents: Refer to the Smart Traveler Health website.
3. Government travel advice:
- US residents: Consult the US Department of State Travel Advice.
- UK residents: Check the FCDO Travel Advice.
- Australian residents: Visit the Smart Traveler website.
4. Medication tips: If you take prescription medication, bring enough to last the entire trip, plus a few extra days in case of delays. Carry a copy of your prescription in case you need to visit a clinic abroad.
We hope this helps you prepare for a safe and enjoyable adventure.
Please keep in mind that our itinerary, activities, and hotels might change. These adjustments could happen with little notice due to factors like availability, weather conditions, seasonal shifts, or other circumstances beyond our control. Rest assured, we always aim to minimise any impact on your experience. Occasionally, we may tweak the itinerary to try out fresh ideas and keep the adventure exciting.
We believe solo travelers shouldn’t have to pay extra to explore the world. That’s why our group trips are designed around shared accommodation and do not include a single supplement. Solo travelers joining our group trips are paired in twin or multi-share rooms with another traveler of the same sex for the duration of the trip.
Some of our Independent trips are structured differently. For these itineraries, solo travelers will need to book at the single occupancy rate.
Tips are not included in the cost of this tour. Remember, tipping is entirely at your discretion and based on what you feel comfortable with.
