🗓 Day 1: Get Lost in the Colonial Heart of Trinidad

In the morning, start your day with a Cuban breakfast on our terrace: strong coffee, tropical fruits, crunchy bread, and fresh juice. Then, take a walk through the historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Don’t miss the Plaza Mayor, the Iglesia de la Santísima Trinidad, the Museo Romántico, and the climb to the Museum of the Struggle Against Bandits, where you’ll get a breathtaking view of the whole city.

In the afternoon, take your time strolling down Simón Bolívar Street, also known as the street of museums. Stop for lunch at La Botija or Taberna La Canchánchara, where you can try the traditional drink that gives the place its name.

In the evening, enjoy dinner in a colonial-style setting at La Redacción, then head over to the Casa de la Música to dance or just enjoy live music under the stars.

🏖️ Day 2: Sun, Sea, and Relaxation

The second day is perfect for unwinding and enjoying the sea. After breakfast, head to Playa Ancón, one of the most beautiful beaches on Cuba’s southern coast, just 15 minutes by car.
The sand is soft, the water warm and clear… perfect for swimming, snorkeling, or simply relaxing.

For lunch, choose a seaside restaurant like Ranchón Ancón. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can join a catamaran tour or even take a diving class.

In the afternoon, return to Trinidad and unwind on our terrace with a cold drink in hand. For dinner, you can stay at the hostal or try another local restaurant, like San José, known for its authentic Creole food.

🌄 Day 3: Adventure, Culture, and a Cuban Farewell

On your last day, you have two great options.

If you’re into history, visit the Valle de los Ingenios, where you’ll learn about Cuba’s sugar boom and can climb the famous Manaca Iznaga Tower for spectacular views.

Prefer nature? You’ll love a trip to Topes de Collantes, a mountainous area with rivers, waterfalls, and hiking trails through lush green landscapes.

In the afternoon, return to Trinidad for a Cuban dance class or a percussion workshop (we can help you book it directly from the hostal!). You can also visit a local pottery workshop or art gallery to take home a handmade souvenir.

And to wrap up your trip in style, enjoy a final dinner at a restaurant with live music, great food, and that special Trinidad vibe.
