Havana, Cuba

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Havana is the capital and largest city of Cuba, sitting on the northwestern coast of the island along the Gulf of Mexico. It's renowned for its remarkably preserved colonial architecture, colourful vintage American cars, vibrant salsa music scene, and lively street culture that gives the city an energy unlike anywhere else in the Caribbean. Travellers are drawn to its UNESCO-listed Old Havana (Habana Vieja), the Malecón seafront promelade, and a thriving arts and nightlife scene rooted in Afro-Cuban traditions. Beyond the city, Havana serves as a gateway to Cuba's tobacco-growing valleys, pristine beaches, and revolutionary history that continues to shape daily life.

Classic Havana Mini Adventure — Self-Launched

A 3-day self-launched version of G Adventures' "Classic Havana Mini Adventure": the same casas particulares homestays, backstreet barrio walk, bodega ration store visit, 1950s almendron taxi ride, Rum Museum and Palacio de la Artesanía cigar stop — booked directly instead of as a group tour. Havana is compact and easy to do independently: stay in a casa in Centro or Vedado, take shared/collective taxis and walk the core, and book a local walking guide or a vintage car tour on the day. Budget roughly £95–£130 per person for the 3 days excluding international flights (Cuba is cash-heavy — bring EUR/GBP/CAD cash and a non-US Visa card).

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Havana, Cuba yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
