***SOLD OUT*** NEXT AVAILABLE TRIP 3-13 JANUARY 2024. SALSA & CULTURE IN CUBA Twin Cities: Havana & Trinidad 19 - 29 November 2023 **For more detailed information please contact us! Join us this November - our UK team along with our 25+ Cuban teachers and dancers as we take you on another magical experience to the most unique and mesmerising Island in the world! You will spend 8 nights in Havana – the only place to be if you want to fully immerse yourself into the dancing, music, people and Cuban culture; where you will have daily dance workshops led by our Cuban team. Your afternoons will be full of choices including some ‘off-the tourist track’ experiences alongside time to relax by the pool and rest those aching feet! Each night you will be dancing your socks off at the best parties in town…Some nights you’ll be front stage dancing to the likes of Havana d’Primera, Los Van Van, Maykel Blanco and many others as they perform live on home soil! You will also have the option of a day visit to the spectacular UNESCO area of Viñales and how about a day at the beach (AKA crazy Cuban beach party) with our dancers, music and of course...rum! For the perfect finishing touch to your holiday, you will visit the stunning UNESCO town of Trinidad – the best preserved Spanish colonial town in the whole of the Caribbean! Here we will slow down the pace and enjoy the magic of this beautiful area including the option to visit the national park and waterfalls on horseback or a Jeep Safari… and still go dancing in the evening! Cuba is a land full of contradictions, it plays with your senses, its authentic, addictive, exhilarating, but one thing is certain…you will want to return as soon as possible because Cuba will capture your soul… PACKAGE OPTIONS & PRICES 5-STAR HOTEL OPTION: IBEROSTAR PARQUE CENTRAL £1,849 per person £390 single supplement (room-share options available to avoid single supplement) 4-STAR HOTEL OPTION HOTEL TELÉGRAFO £1,664 per person £375 single supplement CASA PARTICULAR OPTION: £870 per person (you will chose your own casa to add on to this cost from £9 - £35 per night) RECOMMENDED FLIGHT: TUI: direct from Manchester to Varadero 19-29 November.
