Cuba is a land of soaring mountains covered with rainforests, gentle waterfalls, diamond-dust beaches, exotic flora, sugar cane fields, and citrus groves. Although the landscape climbs and rolls, the back roads wind through the hills maintaining a gentle gradient. You’ll share the road with the easy pace of caballeros on horses, Brahma bulls on leads, and people doubling with loved ones on bicycles.
This is a land of great variety with warm and welcoming people. Come with us and cycle through the heart of the country. Swim in the clear, turquoise waters of the sea and soak in the warm sunshine. Explore the unspoiled, unhurried ambiance of sun, sea and sand on two wheels! Enjoy the unique and vibrant culture!
