Havana, Cuba, is a vibrant and tantalizing city with a history, energy, and rhythm of its own. Led by running enthusiast and tour leader extraordinaire, Carmen Christiansen, who is happy to share her many Cuba experiences with you. During these four days, you’ll learn about Cuban culture, landscape, architecture, and food. You’ll meet local athletes, watch incredible live music and dance performances, a sample from Havana’s burgeoning food scene, and learn about the forces and stories that shaped this city. Our accommodation will be in the heart of Havana in Parque Central which is within walking distance to Old Havana, Central Havana, and the Malecon (Sea Wall).
