Frequently asked questions about lodges in Cuba
Which attractions shouldn't be missed in Cuba?
For a truly memorable trip, Old Havana in Havana is a must-see, with its colourful colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, and historical sites like the Plaza de Armas and the Castillo de la Real Fuerza. Beyond Havana, Trinidad, a UNESCO World Heritage site, boasts stunning architecture and a vibrant cultural scene. Viñales Valley, known for its iconic mogotes (limestone karsts) and tobacco plantations, offers breathtaking scenery and opportunities for hiking and exploring. Finally, the beaches of Varadero are renowned for their pristine sands and turquoise waters, perfect for relaxation and water sports.
José Martí International Airport (HAV) in Havana is the main international airport, serving as the gateway for most visitors. However, other airports like Juan Gualberto Gómez Airport (VRA) in Varadero and Frank País Airport (CFG) in Holguín also receive international flights, though often with fewer options.
What parts of Cuba are perfect for a week-long visit?
A week allows for a good balance of city and nature. You could spend a few days exploring Havana's historical sites and vibrant culture, then head to Viñales Valley for some stunning scenery and outdoor activities, before relaxing on the beaches of Varadero. This itinerary gives a taste of Cuba's diverse offerings.
For a short break, focusing on one area is best. Havana itself offers plenty to see and do in a weekend, allowing you to explore Old Havana, enjoy its nightlife, and soak up the atmosphere. Alternatively, Varadero provides a relaxing beach getaway, perfect for sunbathing and water sports.
What are the best lodges for families and kids in Cuba?
Are there any traditional greetings or practices in Cuba?
A warm greeting is common. A simple 'Hola' is perfectly acceptable, but Cubans often embrace a more affectionate greeting, such as a kiss on the cheek between friends and family. It's also customary to engage in friendly conversation, even with strangers; this is part of the Cuban culture.
Are there any major festivals specific to Cuba's heritage?
Carnival in Santiago de Cuba is a major event, a vibrant celebration of music, dance, and costumes. The Fiesta de la Santa Bárbara in Santiago de Cuba is another significant religious and cultural festival.
What ride-hailing options, including Uber, are available in Cuba?
Uber is not available in Cuba. However, taxis are readily available, and you can also find 'collectivos' – shared taxis following specific routes – which are a cheaper alternative. Negotiating fares is common practice.
What part of Cuba is best for outdoor activities?
Viñales Valley is ideal for hiking and exploring the mogotes, while the beaches of Varadero and other coastal areas offer opportunities for swimming, snorkelling, diving, and other water sports. The Sierra Maestra mountain range provides more challenging hiking and trekking options for experienced adventurers.
