Cuba is a large island, in fact is the largest in the Caribbean and if you want to get to know it properly and do not have many days available for your holidays then the best way to go about it is to arrange a guided Cuba tour around the island.
Many options are available if you are looking to do a tour of Cuba. If you like architecture there are specialized tours on this theme or if you want a bit of everything it is very easy to find some of the tours around Cuba that have been already designed for this purpose. In any case a tour can be designed to suit your particular demands.
Some of this escorted tours last from 7 to 10 days it is bit hectic and definitely a learning experience. After this you can always combine 3 or more nights on a nice and relaxing beach location in Cuba. There are some tours that have been offered for years now among which The pearl of the Caribbean, The Cradle of the Revolution and the Tour of the West are the most popular ones.
Since the tourism in Cuba became number one industry the government has not spare any resources on providing high quality services and the workers in this sector are highly trained. Tour guides are among the most knowledgeable people in Cuba. They all come from universities all over the island.
Now let us look at one of these tours. The Pearl of the Caribbean tour which last 6 nights with 7 days is perfect for those looking to know the culture and history of Cuba. It is concentrated in the occidental half of the island visiting cities like Havana, Pinar del Rio, Trinidad and Cienfuegos.
To look at another example lets take the Cradle of the Revolution. This tour is concentrated in the east part of the island. It is mainly devoted to the history of the Cuban revolution led by Castro. It last 4 nights and is perfect for those interested in the subject and looking to do some relaxing in a beach at the end of the tour in the beautiful Guardalavaca area.
I personally recommend these tours when you do not have much time allocated to your holidays and want to make the most of it without having to spend thousands. An escorted tour is definitely the most economic way to get to know Cuba. Tours can cost from 500.00 to 1000.00 pounds depending on duration, theme and whether it is private or collective.
