Cuba & Mexico
This adventure combines the highlights of Cuba and Mexico. Experience Havana and its colonial buildings and the cobble-stoned streets of Trinidad town. You’ll enjoy a catamaran cruise in clear Caribbean waters and follow the Cuban Revolution to Santa Clara, home to the Che Guevara memorial. Further on is Vinales with its lush green valleys and important tobacco farms. You can relax on the beaches of Cayo Levisa before flying across the Gulf of Mexico to Mexico City. The capital lies a short distance from ancient Teotihuacan, site of the massive Pyramid of the Sun. Further on is colonial Puebla and colourful Oaxaca, renowned for its beautiful architecture and fantastic food. We discover Monte Alban, the ancient capital of the Zapotecs and the colourful Indian town of San Cristobal. After the magnificent jungle ruins of Palenque we arrive in Merida on the Yucatan Peninsula and explore the ancient Mayan ruins of Uxmal and Chichen Itza. Our Cuban and Mexico adventure comes to an end in the resort city of Cancun.
