Topes de Collantes Overnight Tour

Enjoyed- hotel was much better than expected - clean and nice. Pace of the trip was very good considering all the travelling. The local park guide was superb. Very varied and felt we saw lots of very different and interesting places. Negatives- poor information regarding coach transfer - No one checked from the coach company and we were never informed that we would have to catch a second coach in Varadero. The TUI rep was very poor (English speaking) and spent most of his time with the French.

We particularly enjoyed the diversity of the 2 day trip - towns one day, hiking the next. We learned so much in those 2 days about both geography and history. What could have been improved is the information we received beforehand regarding what to take with us and there was an issue with the pick up from the hotel in that we didn't realise that we were bus sharing with people going on other trips, hence we did not get on the bus initially. Hence, lack of information.

Absolutely enjoyed this trip throughout, totally worth going! Jungle is amazing and so are the cities on the tour. All meals included, the hotel is fine and the guide is very knowledgeable.

It was an amazing trip of 2 half's. Site seeing and history on day one followed by an amazing day with nature. Fabulous trip to experience and see the true Cuba.

There's lots of travelling..but to be expected with the distance travelled, however there was unnecessary back and forwards to 'lunch' (@3pm!) on the first day. Surely it must be possible to eat in one of the towns being stopped at? Stop at Trinidad was too long (2hrs in 34o heat). Che Guevara visit may justify time...if you can read Spanish. Toilets are basic, no toilet paper and no running water (be prepared). Take lots of cash for drinks/snacks. Los Pinos hotel/food was fine.Enjoyed trek/swim

More time trekking in the parks, less time in old towns
