Knowing where to go, what to do, what to see and how to see it when on holiday can be difficult and feel very overwhelming. You're in a strange country, the local transport is completely different to home and the language barrier can prove a huge obstacle. Brochures and travel magazines can give some great indications on how to get about but the best advice comes from the tourists who have actually travelled their themselves and have done and seen the things you'd like to. Search through review sites and holiday blogs, not only will you find out how to get about and which are the best trips to take, but you'll discover things that you didn't already know about the place and find some helpful, handy tips which will give you that head start to your holiday.
When many of us initially look at holidays to Cuba, we think of long, soft, white beaches with glistening blue seas, all inclusive 5* hotels and relaxing whilst being waited on for a fortnight. As much as we like to relax by the pool and chill out on the beach, there is so much more to Cuba and its history which mustn't be missed...you'll kick yourself if you do.
When you book your holiday with your tour operator, enquire about a twin centre holiday to Cuba. A twin centre holiday is where you can incorporate some local culture and history in with your much deserved relaxing beach holiday. There are many beautiful, high standard hotels in the resort of Varadero, Holguin or the Cayo's. Varadero is Cuba's premier beach resort and the best option for your twin centre holiday as it lies close to Havana. You'll spend 2-3 nights in Havana, and the remainder of your holiday in your chosen beach resort.
Havana is like nowhere else, with an edgy feel to it, you'll ask yourself what those 1950's American cars are doing there, how the quaint, brightly coloured buildings came about and where the closest cigar factory is. Whether you're walking around, sipping a rum cocktail or puffing on a fat Cuban, you'll love the energy which flows beautifully in and out of the small streets, the energy which fills the air and the excitement pouring from the bars.
Cuba is unlike anywhere else, soaked in history, drenched in enchantment and doused with rum!Holidays to Cuba can come in much cheaper than any holiday to the Caribbean. The best tips in finding yourself a bargain holiday is....
o Find out which dates the flights are leaving.
o Pick the best value for money hotel, whether it be a 3* or a 5* hotel.
o Book your holidays in at work (otherwise this is just a waste of time)
o Keep checking your chosen holiday, leave it as late as possible in booking and as soon as you feel happy with the price it's gone down to...get it booked!
You, like most others will have a fantastic time in Cuba and you never know....it may be you who's writing the reviews for others when you return.
