Havana - Cienfuegos - Trinidad (Breakfast, Lunch)
Setting out for the Cuban countryside will free you from the city's hustle and bustle and bring you spiritual relaxation. Enjoy the Cuban landscapes on the way to the city of Cienfuegos, the first stop on today's route to Trinidad. Cienfuegos is a French-born city, modern in design and crossed by a central axis that is the Paseo del Prado. Just at the end of this avenue, after walking along the promenade, you will find one of the most eclectic buildings in Cuba. The Palacio de Valle is a mixture of styles with a Mudejar touch, which you will be able to appreciate in detail during the tour of its halls that will end with a spectacular view of the bay. Then you will enjoy a seafood lunch at Paladar Aché, a place renowned for its tasty shrimp. Once you have finished your cup of Cuban coffee, it is time to cross the coastal road across bridges and rivers that will take us to Trinidad. Founded in 1514, the city emerged among the largest population of Cuban natives in the country, which was later exterminated and gave way to ships full of slaves who took care of the growing sugarcane plantations. This turned the city into one of the richest in Cuba with families who spent fortunes on mansions, adornments of the latest European fashion and magnificent furniture made from the precious woods of the Cuban forests. After the decline in the price of sugar the city was frozen in time and, thanks to this, today you can appreciate the beautiful architecture.
Included services: City tour through Cienfuegos, visit to Palacio de Valle, cocktail.


Day 5: Trinidad

Trinidad and its handicraft traditions (Breakfast, Lunch)
The narrow cobblestone streets of Trinidad, used by the carriages in the colonial times, are not ideal for modern cars. For this reason, and because of the beauty of the local architecture, today you will do part of the city tour on foot. Before that, you can have fun trying to mold a clay figure in La Casa del Alfarero, the best-known workshop in town. Pottery has been a tradition here for several generations and can be seen on the red tiles of almost every roof in the old part of town. Its color forms a beautiful spectacle at dusk next to the green of the mountains and the last rays of the sun. You will also learn about the art of Trinitarian embroidery, another craft that helped Trinidad to obtain the title of Craft City of the World granted by UNESCO. Later you will be able to acquire an embroidered piece at the handicrafts market during the tour of the old town. You can also visit the Brunet Palace, a small palace belonging to one of the richest families in Trinidad, which includes an exquisite collection of antiques from the colonial era. At noon, when the heat is intense, you will appreciate the traditional cocktails at Café Real accompanied by a delicious lunch in the patio of the old house, today one of the best-preserved structures in the city. In the evening you will enjoy Cuban music with an entrance fee included to the Casa de la Trova. Live or recorded music with authentic Cuban rhythms will surely awaken your desire to dance, and it won't be too difficult to have a local dancer teach you the first steps.
Included services: Visit to an embroidery workshop and a potter's home, visit to Casa de la Trova.

The remains of this 19th century hacienda, including its legendary tower, are a living example of the economic power of Trinidad's sugar families. Next, the route includes the passage through the Guamuahaya mountain range and el Hoyo de Manicaragua, famous for its top-quality dark tobacco. Finally, you will arrive at Santa Clara, where the last battle was fought before the triumph of the Revolution.
