Trinidad
Trinidad is like an old postcard. A picturesque palette of houses and churches plastered in cheerful colours, set against a backdrop of the rainforest-covered hills of the Escambray Mountains. Like Cienfuegos and Santa Clara, Trinidad is a distinctive town that occupies an important place in Cuba’s eventful history.

An old town
Trinidad was founded in 1514, making it a few years older than Havana. Today, Trinidad remains much as it was. This makes it a place where time really does seem to have stood still, especially when you consider that the Cuban streetscape is partly defined by classic cars from the early twentieth century.

Take a trip to the Escambray Mountains
Trinidad is not only worth visiting for its colonial architecture and romantic streetscape, but also as a base for walks and horse rides in the nearby Escambray Mountains.

Cigar and rum tasting at Bistro Trinidad
The owner of Bistro Trinidad is a keen lover of cigars and rum. During a visit, he’ll be delighted to introduce you to Cuban flavours and traditions. He won’t let you leave until you’ve tasted his beloved cigars and rum.

Delicious food at Finca Kenia
This working finca is situated on the outskirts of the town, but as soon as you walk through the gate, you feel as though you’re in the heart of nature. The on-site restaurant, where you can have lunch and dinner, is superb. Johan ate and stayed here and thought it was a lovely place!

A trip to the beach
From Trinidad, you can easily take a trip to small, picturesque bays, frequented by the locals, where you can order a cold beer at the only sleepy beach bar the beach has to offer.
