1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

The beautiful countryside once we left Havana.

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Bring extra toiletries, crayons, pensils etc to give to people. Don't change money at the airport - hotel will probably offer a better rate. Also euros are the preferred currency.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Hopefully it benefitted local communities outside of Havana. As we were cycling we should have reduced the impact on the environment.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

Excellent vacation - would have liked to spend more time out of Havana. We spent 6 nights there altogether. The tour only included 3 nights out of Havana so would have preferred if the tour had at least 4 night away.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

A truly unique place, loved seeing parts of the country we would not have seen if we weren't cycling. My most memorable day was cycling to the Eco village then a well deserved swim in a beautiful river with rock and waterfalls followed by a beautiful sunset... beautiful.

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Always have tissue in your bag, toilet facilities are not great, but don't let that put you off.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

I felt that the Cubans respected and enjoyed tourists and felt extremely safe even when walking through the poorer areas. The locals were always happy to stop and chat or show us the way. Tourist are an important part of their economy.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

Fantastic, so much to see, so colourful. Every day we were amazed with different experiences.
