Additional Information

Important Note:

Cuba is a larger country that it seems; some of these road trips you would have to take in order to arrive to other provinces and tour the Island from Havana to Santiago as you requested will exceed 5, 6 and even 7 hours.

Therefore, if you are used to long periods of time on the road then these excursions are suitable but, in case you don’t want either endure long amount of time on the vehicle I strongly recommend you to reconsider the destinations you want to visit.
