Twin Centre Holidays To Cuba.

I am going to assume that you are already looking at alternatives for your Cuba holidays so I am not going to spend many lines trying to convince you what a good idea is to go to Cuba. You have probably made already a very wise decision and are looking at options for your holidays in Cuba that will be suitable for you.

What Cuba has to offer in terms of tourism can not be found in many places in the world. This fascinating island is the biggest in the Caribbean Sea and has definitely been blessed by nature. Mountain range, large valleys, rivers and lakes and of beautiful turquoise water beaches make its geography one to enjoy. But there is more to it than its landscape. Cuba has a very unique culture, a stunning colonial architecture, and impressive history one of the most talked about political system in Latin America.

If you are looking to mainly relax after a hard long period of work and at the same time let your self been invaded by the Cuban culture then I would suggest you do a twin centre holiday. There are many options and I will mention in this article which in my opinion are the most interesting ones.

Havana and Varadero: Ideal formula for people who are not willing to travel long ours along the road. Both cities are only few miles away from each other and they can be connected in less than 2 hours by taxi. Havana is recommended for at least 2 or 3 nights so that you can get to see and enjoy what this amazing city has to offer. Varadero is considered by many one of the best beach destinations in the world. It certainly is the most famous in Cuba and it offers a wealth of activities such as swimming with dolphins, rides in a submarine, horse back riding and all sorts of water sports.

Havana and Cayo Largo: This one in my opinion is a very attractive combination. You will be arriving to Havana’s airport and after staying few nights in Havana you will be transferred to the airport very early in the morning to fly to Cayo Largo. Why bother taking a domestic flight? Well let me tell you that Cayo Largo has in my opinion the best and most virgin beaches out of all the beach destinations in Cuba. You can also find a wealth of wild life cohabiting with the few hotels that exists in this small island.

Havana and Cayo Ensenachos: Cayo Ensenachos is located in the very center of the island on the north coast and it is a perfect hide away destination. Its hotel, the only one in this tiny island is by far the most luxurious hotel in a beach location in Cuba. To get there options are, you take a taxi for about 5 hours or you take a flight for 50 minutes both from Havana.

There are of course more options and if you are interested in knowing more about Cuba you can always get in touch. I love to share my experiences in Cuba with the readers

Santiago De Cuba: A Top 10 Holiday Destination.

Santiago de Cuba, famously known as the Cradle of The Cuban Revolution, has been chosen in a recent a publication as one of the best places in the world to visit in year 2010 and definitely a must when it comes to Cuba holidays.

Rated within the top 10 destinations in the world by the prestigious Frommers Publications, Santiago de Cuba is the best place to see what is like to live in Cuba in modern days.

“Santiago is a culturally rich and scenic city that retains the intimate, friendly feel of a provincial capital, with peaceful neighborhoods where men play dominoes outdoors on hilly streets,” the website said.

Rough Guides: a leading publisher of travel and reference information, respected for their accurate, up-to-date content pointed out that the next 12 months are critical in the development of the tourist industry in Cuba and suggested a great deal of change.

Reuters also suggests things might change drastically in the way Cuba deals with the tourist industry and urges holiday makers to visit the country before the expected massive flock of American tourists.

Not only Santiago is famous for its heroic battles but also for been the birth place of personalities such Don Facundo Bacardi in 1986 who set out to established the world famous Bacardi brand.

Santiago has an International Airport however if traveling from Europe holidaymakers will have to use the nearest Airport in Holguin City about 3 hours drive from Santiago. Another alternative is to fly to Havana and after a short stay a 2 hour domestic flight to the eastern city.

According to reviews extracted from various websites the best time to be in Santiago de Cuba is the week comprising the 26 July. Even though is the hottest time in the year it is worth a visit mainly for its famous Carnivals. The joy of the locals is very contagious and travelers can enjoy the endless street parties that take place all around this historic city.

Planning Your Holidays to Cuba.

At this phase you are probably absolutely sure that Cuba is the country that you want to visit for your next vacation but most likely need some help on the actual booking process. This might seem a little bit trivial but it is definitely not the case when it comes to organizing holidays to Cuba.

The fact that Cuba is such a delightful and ever more popular destination, presents travel agents with a real problem . Cuba is definitely not a last minute destination , in particular if you are travelling in the high season.

The busiest seasons in Cuba falls within the months of July and August, the Easter period, Christmas and New year’s eve . November, December, January, February and March are awfully trendy months especially among the European tourists in search of a warm country to avoid few days of miserable weather.

Pretty frequently I get people calling asking me to organise an itinerary for them in the above mentioned months , but sometimes the enquiry comes too late . This is frustrating, equally for the customer and myself . For one pure reason, I just can not recommend anything worth it because all the popular resorts and best hotels are fully booked, leaving me with the only answer I can give . “I am really sorry but at this point there are no hotels available in the areas that you are interested ”

If you are looking to stay in big resorts then there is not much to worry about. The problem arises when customers want to combine in a package locations like Havana, Viales Valley, Las Terrazas, Cienfuegos, Trinidad and or Santiago de Cuba. Areas like these with the exception of Havana are very limited when it comes to hotel availabilities.

If what you want is to put together a tailor made Cuba holiday in a high season my guidance to you is to call at least 4 months prior to departure in order to secure not only the rooms in your preferred hotels but also the best deal from the airlines . If you unfortunately did not read this article before and are thinking about a multi centre holiday to Cuba, there is always a possibility to find something available but is not going to be the kind of holiday that we wish for you.

In the case of low season months is trouble-free to find availabilities and good deals in terms of price and it really does not matter much when you call. Even so we feel very confident to put together the kind of itinerary that will fulfil your holidays

I truly hope you have found this information a useful resource and sincerely wish you a fantastic time in Cuba.
