Cuba is the largest and perhaps most interesting island in the Caribbean. Not only famous for its communist government, but also its fascinating old cities, beautiful beaches and the numerous U.S. road cruisers and Harleys from the ‘50s. Not to mention the legendary hospitality of the fun-loving Cubans. This motorcycle tour will introduce you to the secrets of Cuba! We start out from Havana and ride to Viñales, famous for its karst landscape full of caves and its tobacco plantations. Here you can learn everything about the famous Cuban cigars and perhaps even try one.
After a swim in the beautiful basins and waterfalls of the Viñales Natural Park we turn east and ride to Cienfuegos. On the way we visit the famous Bay of Pigs, where the invasion of Cuba failed back in 1961. Next, we spend two nights in Trinidad, considered by many to be the most beautiful of all Caribbean cities. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and well worth the rest day! The twisty roads in the beautiful hills of Topes de Collantes are among the best in all of Cuba. You will find lush rainforests, thunderous waterfalls and incredible views there. In Varadero you’ll find white sandy beaches and crystal-clear turquoise waters; the Caribbean as if straight from a picture book. Enjoy some peace and quiet there before we ride back to Havana along the north coast.

vielen Dank Reiner für die schöne Reportage!
This Cuba tour must be one of the best Edelweiss tours. Excellent riding, varied scenery, history, culture, vibrant colour and vintage cars just everywhere. We even swam in the ocean. The highlight for us was to visit Havana with all its wonderful old buildings and bright 1950's cars. That ride along the Malecon is unique. We also enjoyed riding through the old colonial towns full of colour and character, the roads lined with revolutionary slogans and images of Che Guevara. We spent a few days in old Havana before and after the trip taking in the atmosphere, visiting the museums and having salsa lessons. Cuba is a unique destination - thank you Manuel (our tour guide) for your excellent guiding!
Kuba zu erleben war eine Erfahrung die wir nie vergessen werden! Schon bei der Landung in La Havana hatten wir das Gefühl, eine Zeitreise in die 50er Jahre gemacht zu haben in ein Land, wie es kaum ein schöneres gibt. Man merkt auch, dass Kuba sich allmählich von den Fesseln des Komminismus löst, und unsere Motorradtour war auch gleichzeitig eine Reise durch die Geschichte des Landes. Wir hatten die netteste Gruppe, die man sich wünschen kann, mit Teilnehmern aus aller Herren Länder und unser Tour Guide Jens war nicht nur ein Reiseleiter, sondern ein Freund, mit dem es Spaß machte zu touren. Wir Jungs aus Südafrika freuen uns, ihn und den Rest der Gruppe bald wiederzusehen.
This was our first motorcycle holiday with Edelweiss. Words can not describe how unbelievably impressive this journey was with our guides Domenico Schiano, Christopher Baker and Anivar Falcon Hayes!
