Whenever you see anything related to Cuba and Havana, inevitably classic cars are part of the picture. And that’s a fabulous thing. The owners of these gems take care of them as if they’re family. It’s so tempting and so easy to plop yourself down into the back seat of a 1954 Buick, there’s no reason not to. Where are you going to be able to actually glide down the avenue in someone else’s classic pride and joy?
So, if Cuba is on your list (and it should be) live your dream and hop in the back of your Buick or Chevrolet, or even more. Some of the most iconic things in Havana are the classic cars. Here’s your chance to experience that local legend and get to see Havana in style. On this tour, you’ll ride in a classic 1950’s American convertible. Head out through the streets of Havana, cruising your way through the suburbs of Centro Habana, Miramar, and Vedado, passing by points of interest such as the Malecon, the glamorous 5th Avenue in Miramar, the American “Special Interests” building, the Anti-Imperialist Square, Colon Cemetery, and the Revolution Square.
The tour also visits the Havana forest. The tour ends with a visit to the famous Salon de los Grandes bar, a visit to the fortification (built to guard Havana during the missile crisis), and finally a walk through the garden terrace of the iconic Hotel Nacional. You’ll finish in the hotel’s bar, where you’ll enjoy a Cuban cocktail.
