Day trip from Havana

At the beginning we thought to spend a few days in Vinales but once in Cuba, we soon realised that a day trip was enough for what we were interested in.

Vinales is located in the beautiful Pinar del Rio province 120 miles west of Havan, Vinales is a small peaceful village, with colored small houses, nice people and many natural attractions that you can not miss.
In the surrounding area you will find cultivated lands of tobacco, with scattered farm houses where you can see and learn how the Cubans grow their famous tobacco.
