Havana is dynamic, safe, vibrant, and gorgeous all at once. It is a destination that when mentioned conjures up a sense of romanticism and mirth, a lively spirit that won’t be held down by any means—including messy political atmospheres. Havana isn’t just a destination; it is a way to find the things that were lost along the path to adulthood: colorful curiosity and friendly fun. |
SIMPLY SANTIAGO DE CUBASantiago is the second largest city in Cuba. It sits in a valley of the Sierra Maestra mountains with a pretty bay on the Caribbean Sea. The entrance to the bay is almost invisible offshore but as you arrive, the scenery opens up to the city behind the sandy beachfront. The city is the centre of an agricultural and mining region and exports copper, iron, manganese, sugar, and fruit, and it is no surprise that the southern terminus of the country’s Central Highway and Cuba’s major railway is here to move all those products. |
