Picture a Caribbean island with white sand beaches and warm blue waters. Now stir in some quirky cities with roads full of classic cars, add a dash of salsa dancing, and you’ve got the recipe for a one-of-a-kind adventure. Cuba solo travel is ideal for curious, intrepid travellers who are after something a little bit different. Cuba’s fascinating history has left it trapped in a time warp, and tourists have only very recently begun to take notice of this bizarre and beautiful island. Let us customise the perfect adventure for you, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds: the freedom of solo travel and the peace of mind of an itinerary planned by the experts.

Cuba Solo Travel Guide

Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday

Our Cuba experts are on hand to make sure your Cuba solo travel adventure is one to remember. We’ll tailor the trip to make sure it’s perfect for you, but here are just a few of the adventures you might enjoy:

Learn to salsa dance in Havana

If there’s one thing we know to be true about Cubans, it’s that they know how to dance. On your Cuba solo travel adventure, why not join them? Havana, Cuba’s exciting capital, is the perfect place to learn. Head to Salsa school and get yourself ready to impress for a night on the town.


Swim in Trinidad’s waterfalls

Salto del Caburní waterfall can be found near the city of Trinidad, and can only be accessed via a tough hike through the jungle, but if you’re up for a challenge, it’s well worth the effort. Water cascades down over 200ft of rocky outcrops to a pool where you can swim with locals and fellow travellers alike. If you dare, you can even jump down into the pool from the rocks above.


Meet fellow solo travellers in Playa Larga

If you’re keen to meet like-minded travellers on your Cuba solo travel adventure, Playa Larga is a great place to go. It’s a simpler, more bohemian alternative to the luxury beaches of Varadero and Cayo Coco. You won’t find luxury accommodation or exclusive bars here, but charming homestays and restaurants run by locals.
