Hello! I'm Carlos. I'm a Cuban who has lived in many cities in Cuba, but without a doubt, Santiago de Cuba was the one I loved. I enjoy a good conversation, art (any kind 😃) and meeting new people and places. I work together with my friend Tatiana and we will both be in charge of showing travelers the wonders of the hot land 😎

Tour description

Hello!
Would you like to visit Cuba's famous "hot land"? This is where Taino roots blend with African and European influences, giving the Creole people their identity.
Would you like to walk the streets of the first capital of the New World, more than 500 years ago? Come discover the mysteries and ambitions of the first discoverers of America .
Bacardi Rum, Trova, Carnival, and the Festival of Fire were born here. The remains of José Martí and Fidel Castro are buried here. This is also where you'll find the Gran Piedra and Pico Turkey, the highest peak in the country.
I invite you to take a journey through the history and present-day life of the emblematic Santiago de Cuba.
