Cuba

Cuba is increasingly sought after by discerning travellers and it’s easy to see why with its abundance of cultural and scenic attractions, plus a rich arts scene and intoxicating music. Travelling to the capital Havana reveals buildings in a multitude of pastel shades, 1950s Cadillacs still cruising the streets, an energising salsa scene, and dining in family-run paladares. Beyond the city are Cienfuegos and Trinidad, rich in stunning architecture and white-sand beaches; and Viñales, in the heart of Cuba’s tobacco-growing region, a Jurassic Park-like wonderland.
