Havana is loaded with interesting historic sites, museums, art galleries, and now several excellent restaurants. Old Havana is among the most well preserved and dynamic colonial cities in the New World. This district of the city is undergoing rapid change, which fortunately includes ambitious historic restoration combined with modern improvement of what are in many examples UNESCO World Heritage Site restored and protected buildings. Pedestrian walkways connect a variety of museums, art galleries, fine restaurants, renaissance hotels and guest houses, balanced with active, authentic residential neighborhoods, offering both touristic appeal and authenticity to the curious visitor. Lunch in a high quality paladare, or privately owned (as opposed to Government run) restaurant. Havana avoided rapid development and the loss of scores of historic residential and commercial properties during the last half of the 20th century. Many buildings have been recently refurbished, some dating back to the 17th century. Following lunch, you are free to explore on your own, or return to your accommodation – just a few blocks away, once the tour is finished. In addition, we will be offering an optional excursion each remaining day of the tour, with pricing and other details to be announced within sever al weeks prior to departure.
