We had an excellent holiday and so it is difficult to pick out was most memorable, but we did particularly enjoy the horse ride and visit to the tobacco fields and our stay on Cayo Levisa. But we also loved Havana and Trinidad. (more)Richard Patterson
Having designed my own trip, the best aspect was the freedom to spent time doing things on a whim sitting around immersing myself in the less touristy aspects of Cuba, away from the bars and CD-touting bands, instead mixing with the least affluent of the society, meeting fascinating characters and enjoying the music made by people in their own front rooms and doorsteps. (more)Chris Bragg
Horse riding through the tobacco fields in Vinales on Christmas Day was the most memorable. (more)Elizabeth Freeman
From
£725
excluding flights
Cuba is such an exciting and different part of the world that we found the whole holiday exciting. (more)Joyce Davies
Vinales was exciting, but interacting with the people was the most memorable. Warm, friendly, inquisitive and caring. (more)Jim Fuller
So many different experiences make it hard to pinpoint one, but tropical storm at La Tarazzas, horse riding followed by Saturday night in Vinales, snorkling on coral reef at Cayo Levisa and Cuba in general. (more)Sophie Randall
From

Memorable parts?
Participating in the Cuba Music Holiday through the tour operator we used was the trip of a lifetime! Learning from, working with, and performing public shows
with a top-rated band in a foreign country is a dream come true for us. We fell in love with Cuba, its people, and its music, and we look forward to returning
someday. We'd also like to do another music holiday with this same company.
Tips?
Study Spanish before leaving home. Practice the music the operator... (more)Bob and Patty Tatum

The most memorable task was horse riding in Vinales. Brilliant! (more)Rowena Gillow
It's difficult to single out one thing as it was all memorable and exciting. However, the tour in Trinidad was about life in Cuba and was most fascinating and enlightening. Meals were very good, both at the casas and in local restaurants. (more)Gwyneth Short
The most memorable was the beauty of the country and the people. A truly memorable experience in a unique country! (more)Phillip Sammut

The holiday was excellent and would highly recommend Cuba as a holiday destination. The 10 day trip was a wonderful adventure from start to finish.
Our thanks to Responsible Travel for recommending Marcel. (more)Claire Childs
Wonderful experiences. Recommended...Amazing scenery: El Nicho waterfalls and Vignales valley were the highlights (more)Stirling Tyler
We enjoyed meeting the enthusiastic and friendly people in the cities as well as the expertly led tours in the countryside. Most enjoyable. We were well supported but also had lots of freedom. (more)David Nevill
From
US $1,360
excluding flights
Our guide, Oscar, who entertained, looked after and informed us across 700 miles of an amazing country. Trinidad and its music, architecture and people - wonderfully vibrant. A very challenging 10 km hike through tropical rainforest, but we all made it! The classic car ride in Havana - great fun. (more)Vicky Gatley
Travelling around Cuba in vintage cars and listening to the local music at night was the most memorable. (more)Tony Davies
The two week trip enabled me to get a great overview of the country. I really enjoyed the fabulous live music at every turn, the eclectic architecture, the old
American cars, and the simple, yet gorgeous food we tasted en route. Every destination had something special to offer and every included activity was a
highlight.
(more)Sandy Schuler
From
£1,768
excluding flights
The tours were excellent, much better than we expected. Excellent, it was a fantastic trip and we all had a great time. (more)Julian Philpott
For me, the highlight was riding through the tobacco lands with the red earth, hot sun and beautiful scenery, or perhaps it was the horse-drawn cart trip to the
waterfall and then swimming in the cool, clear water with the birds swooping in and out of their little cave nests. (more)Judy Corbett
From
£1,375
excluding flights
The whole holiday was memorable. We enjoyed discovering a new country and a new culture, meeting people. The old American cars are fabulous. (more)Dominique Le Marchand
The most memorable was the tour of Trinidad Cuba where guide took us on life of a typical Cuban and not the tourist spots. (more)John Miller
From
US $680
excluding flights
Everything was soooo perfect! We got along very well with the other people of the tour (different countries, different ages)... we always went out together, even in the evening. Our guide helped us a lot and went out in the evening with us. I rate it as one of the best moments of my entire life!! I really recommend people to take part in this tour. (more)Noemi Bernardi
Lots of wonderful items here - snorkeling the Bay of Pigs, Fusterville, poking around Trinidad and Havana, biking Vinales, spotting the national bird (Cuban trogan) at Las Terrazas, and the Buena Vista Social Club! The Che memorial was very touching. (more)Susan Babkes
The perfect balance of activities and free time. We visited the main cities of Cuba and their main attractions and everything was thoroughly planned out for us. (more)Stephanie Georgiou
From

The most memorable was staying in casa particulares; meeting friendly and welcoming people; learning about Cuban history in context; visiting Havana. (more)Judy Raven
Visiting Santa Clara and seeing the Che Guevara Mausoleum and statue was the most memorable part of the holiday...10/10. Absolutely perfect. (more)Genevieve Isherwood
We really enjoyed this holiday. We had a fantastic range of experiences and met some wonderful people. We've travelled extensively, but Cuba is pretty much a unique destination. (more)Alan Shelton
From
£1,525
excluding flights
The dancing was amazing, hilarious, fun and depending on how much you put into it - painful due to bad shoes! But totally worth it. The people there - I can't
describe how warm and welcoming they are. The dancers, the guides.... everybody I met in fact. (more)Britt Voll
One of the best moments was probably snorkeling in the Bay of Pigs area near Play Giron, and then of course all the salsa dancing, both in classes and in the
evenings! (more)Anniina Simula
Clearly the dancing lessons were the most memorable. (more)Susan Nagen
From
£1,925

Memorable parts?
Meeting the warm, friendly people in cuba, our hosts at home stays and our
wonderful guides. The hiking was great too.
Tips?
The exchange rate in cuba is not good for Americans so bring extra money
as you can't use cards.
Local benefits?
I hope it benefited them. I know they appreciated the tips. The single use water bottle issue will be a problem quickly as the infrastructure probably can't handle the amount of tourists.
Overall rating?

US $890

It was all memorable. Being in Cuba itself was an amazing experience. Every town we visited was different but everywhere the people were warm and welcoming. Outside Havana the nights were full of music - with live bands in the restaurants and squares as well as the House of Music venue in each town. (more)Sue Pidgeon
Old Havana, Mountains around Baracoa, Ballet School in Camaguey were all highlights. (more)Agustin Zapata
Very varied, exciting, fascinating, stimulating, warm and fun! (more)Duncan Taylor
From
US $1,130
including domestic flights only
I enjoyed all of the 20 day trip, but Soroa and Baracoa stand out, largely because they were least touched by tourism, we had amazing casas, met wonderful people and enjoyed the lovely scenery in these areas. Snorkelling en route from Cienfuegos to Havana was also a treat. (more)Margaret Wanke
Areas visited on this tour were all well chosen to show diversity of Cuba... Swimming on beautiful beaches, visiting ballet school, learning about Cuban history, beautiful art and architecture, lovely people. (more)Sandra Vasic

Memorable parts?
The New Year's Eve dinner at Buena Vista Social Club was an expensive highlight that was not included in the tour.
Exciting parts were feeling as if we were on a movie set as the Old Cars cruised the street of the Malecon, The time warp that gripped Cuba. The decaying splendour of a bygone era and the gentle warm people who inhabited this island.
Tips?
Learn a bit of Spanish, extremely useful as English speakers are not common in the outlaying areas that we visited.... (more)Heidi Wehrle

£1,229

The whole experience was amazing. Cuba is a fantastic place to go and one which is going to change so dramatically in our lifetimes. The atmosphere across the whole island was so warm and vibrant, with live music being heard on every street corner. (more)Faye T
Wandering the cobbled streets of Havana and Trinidad. Jungle walks near Trinidad and Baracoa. Staying with friendly hosts in their own homes. (more)Helen Peake

From
US $2,495

Memorable parts?
Meeting and talking with Cubans about their daily experiences.
Tips?
This tour uses knowledgeable local guides and stays in small casas in regular neighborhoods. Groups are small, ours was 5 people, so we did not overwhelm the local scene. We feel that we got a good sense of daily life for ordinary Cubans, much more so than we had been with a larger group staying in hotels. Activities were varied and included urban walks, mountain hikes, horseback ride, museums,... (more)Karl Boehmke

The catamaran ride to a perfect island. Loved it. (more)Alison McPhillips

10 out of 10 (more)Yvonne Manuel
The most memorable part of the holiday was the friendliness and openness of the people - in the street as well as ones we met more formally through homestays and tours. The music in every bar - some cheesy - some excellent. (more)David Jockelson
We had an excellent time and made some good friends. The leader was very good and did her best to advise, inform and enthuse us at every turn. She was honest, open and did her best to pass on her enthusiasm for her country, while being prepared to discuss its idiosyncrasies in an informative and thoughtful way. (more)Sarah Walker
