My friend and I booked private tours of the Classic Car and Cigar Trail activities online via Havana Adventures and we could not have been happier for Armando to guide us on both days. We felt well taken care of while he shared his knowledge about each of the four neighborhoods we drove by during the Classic Car ride - Old Havana, Central Havana, Vedado and Miramar. Armando always had our best interests in mind ensuring we made good use of the time allotted. Due to some scheduling conflicts for our Cigar Trail tour the next day, he recommended we adjust our tour start time so we could meet and watch Jose Castelar Cairo, who is a Guinness World Record holder of the longest cigar rolled, personally roll our cigar that he gifted us in the end. We had another activity planned later that day right after the Cigar Trail tour and Armando was able to drop us off at our requested location. You can tell Armando is a professional communicating with his company making sure his clients' requests are acceptable before letting his guests' know of the final plan. His communication skills were impeccable. If there is one area for improvement, it would be great to know approximately how much money to bring for each of the tours such as the Cigar Trail for shopping purposes when booking the tour online. On the Cigar Trail tour, there are opportunities to buy coffee, rum and cigars at great prices, which I would have splurged if I had brought more money with me. Overall, I would highly recommend Armando to anyone looking for a very knowledgeable, client-oriented and friendly local guide in Havana.

My friends and I went on this tour before Christmas. It was incredible and I can’t recommend it enough. Our tour guide Armando was knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic. The tour of the factory was great and I especially enjoyed the rum and cigar tasting - I would have preferred it if the guide or one of the restaurant staff sat and joined us.

Havana Adventures has a very informative website which drew me to them over other tour group websites that I had searched online. Being an American, I wasn’t sure how to navigate travel under a license and their website was SUPER helpful with LOTS of important information! I even made folders for my colleagues who plan to travel in the fall. The staff was very responsive, reliable, professional, and knowledgeable about the documents needed. They guided me in every step along the way and we stayed in contact before and during my trip. The communication between us was valuable and helped me feel secure in knowing that they would assist with any questions I had. In addition to guiding me with the documents, they also paired me with a tour guide who designed an itinerary based on my interests and hobbies with flexible arrangements as needed - (My flight was canceled and my tour guide was able to rearrange the tours without diminishing the value of each tour). Our tour guide, Armando, is a versatile and intelligent person who delved deeply into the history and art of Cuba. My trip was culturally immersive because of Armando and at the end, I felt like a Cuban :). I highly recommend Havana Adventures!!

Armando did a fantastic job of providing a very thorough walking tour of Old Havana as well as touring, by car the Vidados and Miramar neighborhoods. He also accompanied us on the Havanna by Night tour during which we rented a classic car and drove to the Christ of Havanna statue and also had an opportunity to see some of the Havana nightlife. Armando's knowledge of the city is very detailed and he is very personable. We had several great discussions about Cuba and America during our time together. I hope to return to Cuba and would definitely request Armando as a private guide.

Highly recommend to anyone to book this Havana tour. I enjoyed riding all day long through the city in a convertible car and visiting all the hotspots of Havana. Our driver was super friendly and so was the guide. Our guide spoke perfectly english and gave us a lot of information about the culture and history of Havana. Wonderful day!

We booked the Cuban Cooking Experience, and were greeted at our meeting point by our guide Jorge and our chef Tina. The first portion of the day was spent shopping locally for fresh food, where we learned a lot about how to source the freshest vegetables. We then stepped into the kitchen of Casa Fina, a "casa particular" (B&B), and spent the next several hours cooking, laughing, eating an amazing 6 course Cuban feast, and listening to our very friendly and knowledgeable guide. We learned a ton about Cuba's colourful history as well as its cuisine. If you want to get a feel for the real Havana, then this experience is well worth it - a fabulous day!

Had such a great day from start to finish. I was picked up from my guesthouse in Havana and did a full city tour in a convertible to all of the hotspots. My guide spoke very good English, was friendly and informative. Highly recommend booking a tour with Havana Adventures!

Armando L. Lee S. was the local guide provided by Havana Adventures. We can honestly say we were so impressed by not only his local knowledge but he was such an intelligent, well informed and charming person. Our trip to Havana lasted four days and we had Armando for all our excursions. It was a pleasure to spend the time with him and learn so much about Cuba. We can nor recommend him or Havana Tours strongly enough... A fantastic service.

Very good experience : we had a bike tour on Havana on the very first morning in Cuba and this helped us a lot to orientate ourselves in town, understand logistic and meet a local to ask all our questions and curiosity. Our guide was Maurice: kind, prepared, generous.
Very good bikes and tour well planned, including the lunch stop!

Armando was fabulous! He sat down with us prior to going out for the day and reviewed our interests. He personalized the tour to what we wanted to see, made great suggestions, hired a driver, and planned all of our stops. He made sure we didn’t miss anything! Armando is full of interesting facts and incredible knowledgeable. He’s extraordinarily nice too. We couldn’t have had a better visit! It was all VERY reasonably priced as well.

Guesthouses in Cuba (“casas particulares”) Guesthouses, Bed and Breakfast, B&B, casas, casas particulares, family stays and homestays - these are all names for the same type of accommodation in Cuba. Ours was called "Casa Cantero". Nice place and great family (3 generations). Clean and quiet. We had a private room with air and it included breakfast. Chasman
