Nostalgic Wheels - Havana on the Road

Predominantly in pink or sky blue, 1950s classic cars filling Havana streets is a sight to behold. How come have Cubans kept in such a great shape these beauties? In this thrilling half-day excursion, learn how locals restore vintage cars to their original, glorious splendor; no matter if they labour in professional facilities or improvised street repair shops. Meet a Cuban entrepreneur with a fascinating story of passion for American cars and chug along the streets of Havana on board of one of his amazing collection, just like Michelle Obama and countless Hollywood stars did before you. Close your day in style with a cocktail at the terrace of Hotel Nacional, a favourite of the Mob in the 40s for their legendary social gatherings. Do not forget your camara to capture the unique moments you are about to live.

Made in Cuba - by E-bike 2023

The day tour Made in Cuba – by E-bike offers an insight into the state-run agricultural system and much more. In the morning, you pickup your e-bike at the office of Caribbean Tours in the district Vedado. From there, you cycle to the south-west of Havana, to a place still untouched by tourism. The majority of the inhabitants living here earn their money from pottery, amongst other things. During a visit to a ceramics workshop, watch over a potter´s shoulder as he works and whoever chooses to, may also attempt to use the potter’s wheel. Continue the “expedition” with various visits to research and development centers, gardens and production sites of Cuban agriculture. On a “finca”, on which bananas, avocados, lettuce, mint and much more are grown, that are sold daily at one of the many farmers markets in the city, a delicious Creole meal with refreshing drinks will be served. An employee of the “finca” will give a tour with explanations of the state-run agricultural system. In the afternoon, head back to the starting point to drop off the bicycles.

Arts and Museums of Santo Domingo

Art plays an important role in the cultural identity of the Dominican Republic and Santo Domingo in particular is known for its vibrant cultural scene. This city tour with a focus on art offers you an overview of what the capital has to offer in terms of cultural highlights, as well as suggestions and walking tips for the rest of your stay.
Your guide will pick you up at your hotel in the late morning at 10:30 am. You will leave the old town and drive to the Plaza de la Cultura, the cultural square, where you will visit the Museum of Modern Art. There, the works of the most important Dominican artists of the 20th and 21st centuries are displayed on three floors. Afterwards, you will return to the old town, where you will take a walk to discover a form of artistic expression that has a high social value in the Dominican Republic: mural painting. About five blocks of houses not far from the Zona Colonial were decorated by order of the city government with 13 murals depicting scenes from Dominican history. The works were executed by internationally known Dominican artists.
Before continuing your tour of Santo Domingo’s art scene, you will have a light lunch. Afterwards, you will visit a private museum, housed in a beautifully restored colonial building, which houses a selected collection of works by Dominican and European artists who have had a relationship with the Dominican Republic. Afterwards you will have time for a coffee in the picturesque courtyard of the museum to review the impressions of the last hours. Finally, you will visit a gallery for arts and crafts. If you wish, you can buy a souvenir here, guaranteed to be of higher quality and more original than in any souvenir store. Then return to your hotel.
Please note that the exhibitions in the visited museums change.

Historical City Tour Santo Domingo

Immerse yourself in the old town of Santo Domingo, crowned a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and learn about the historical origins of the New World. This city tour through the so-called Zona Colonial is especially for travelers interested in the colonial history of the Americas. After a short introduction with Dominican coffee or a fresh tropical juice in the idyllic courtyard of a colonial building from the early 16th century, the discovery tour starts. You will visit the first cathedral, the first university, the first fortress and the first Palace of Justice. Further on, you will stroll along the first street paved by the colonizers, see the first hospital, the first shipyard and the first viceregal palace of the American continent. You will visit the most important museums, squares and landmarks, with plenty of opportunities for spectacular souvenir photos in this beautifully picturesque setting. At the end of the tour, a cold (malt) beer awaits you in a unique setting overlooking the ruins of America’s first monastery. Breathe history and review the impressions. From here it is only a few hundred meters before the tour ends in the pedestrian zone El Conde with its many stores and street vendors as well as bars and restaurants.

The boat tour will take you to the Los Haitises National Park. You will be picked up at the hotel around 8:00 a.m. From here you will first go to Sanchez, where there is a small harbor from where the boat will depart. The tour will take you to one of the most interesting and untouched areas of humid tropical jungle in the Caribbean along the coastal zone of the protected area, which covers more than 200 km². Here a vast green mangrove belt stretches out and more than 50 small islands form a labyrinth of waterways. Rainfall has washed out caves here over millions of years. These caves provided shelter for the indigenous people, the Taínos, as evidenced by stone carvings and wall paintings. The park area represents one of the most important retreats of the native fauna and flora. Cave visits, bird breeding islands, mangrove forests and much more make this day an unforgettable experience.

Whales Watching

Every year between mid-January and March, almost the entire humpback whale population of the North Atlantic Ocean gathers in the waters of the Dominican Republic. Both mating and birth of the whale calves take place in these warm and protected coastal waters. Samaná Bay is one of the few places in the world where you can see the whale calves up close with their mothers. In addition, groups of bulls can be observed in their courtship fights for the females. In good weather conditions you have the unique opportunity to experience the whale songs of the bulls live. Become a part of this unique natural spectacle!

Santo Domingo's Natural Treasures

In the middle of the big city of Santo Domingo and not far from the colonial zone is the recreational destination Los Tres Ojos (the three eyes), which houses a small natural park and several stalactite caves. Descend into the caves and enjoy views of the partially open stalactite caves and green coral bedrock. Walk through the lush green vegetation and marvel at the three eyes (caves). The fourth eye can only be reached by boat, which will take you across a small underground river to the cenote. There you will have a fantastic view of a hidden lake surrounded by green, wild vegetation.
Afterwards you will visit the botanical garden. Here, on 20 hectares, you can see, among other things, a large collection of palms and many endemic and exotic plants, including a large collection of orchids with many different species of the island. The Japanese Zen Garden is one of the absolute highlights of the Botanical Garden.

Santo Domingo off the beaten track

On this excursion you will get to know Santo Domingo from a different side. Off the beaten tourist track you will see the life of the less privileged population and make a small contribution to improving their circumstances.
After breakfast, you will be picked up by your driver at 09:00. Then you will drive to one of the most precarious neighborhoods in the Dominican Republic, Gualey. The neighborhood is located north of the old town on the west bank of the Ozama River. Here you will visit the non-profit Rincón de Luz Foundation. The foundation has been doing work in the areas of education, nutrition and health for socially disadvantaged children, youth and seniors for over 18 years. Children from preschool age to the beginning of middle school receive schooling and participate in lunch. At the foundation you will hand over a food donation (included in the price of the excursion, will be provided for you in advance). The founder and president Leyda Alvarez will give you a tour of the premises and present her work. You will also have the opportunity to interact with the school children.
Afterwards you will get a guided tour through Gualey. You will get an impression of the living conditions in one of the poorest neighborhoods of the Dominican Republic. You will visit the four Pozos, small lakes fed by natural springs, which are popular with the residents. One of the pozos has recently been used as a breeding pool for ornamental and food fish. Drinks are available during the walk from local corner stores called colmados.
After the end of the tour you will go to the cable car station of Gualey. You will board the cable car, from which you will enjoy a spectacular view. You will cross the Ozama River, passing through the Tres Brazos and Sabana Perdida stations to the Charles de Gaulle terminus in the north of Santo Domingo, and then return to your starting point. During the tour you will gain a new perspective on the city and get an impression of the different living conditions. From the gondola you will have numerous opportunities for spectacular photos.
Afterwards, your driver will take you back to the hotel.
A quarter of the excursion price will benefit the Foundation in the form of a food donation, which you will hand over on the day of the excursion.

El Limon Waterfall

Today you will visit the highest waterfall on the Samaná Peninsula. It is an impressive waterfall about 50 meters high. The waterfall consists of smaller waterfalls that fall down a green wall into a natural basin. It is a very nice and pleasant horseback ride with a docile horse led by a local guide, who will take you to the top of the Limon waterfall in half an hour. Along the way you will be able to see various plants and tropical fruits. Once you get to the top, it’s about a fifteen-minute walk until you get to the pool of the waterfall where you can take a refreshing dip. Take pictures, rest and return to the ranch where a rich typical Dominican buffet lunch will be waiting for you – just the right refreshment after this spectacular excursion!

If you don’t want to ride and prefer to walk, you can also do this excursion as a short hike. Remember to wear good walking shoes as the trail is difficult and muddy due to the footprints left by the horses. The walk takes about 50 minutes each way.

Colonial Legacy: The Slave Route

On this excursion you will get to know the background of the history of slavery in the Dominican Republic. Because people who were brought from Africa as slaves from 1503/1505 onwards, especially for work in the sugar factories on the island of Hispaniola, play an important role in the history of the country.
After breakfast you will be picked up at your hotel and begin your tour in the Barrio Santa Barbara. This was the site of the slave market, the historic transshipment point for people from Africa brought to the island for slave labor. Today, the streetscape is dominated by murals that refer to the historical and cultural aspects of slavery such as religious syncretism. After a subsequent visit to the Rum Museum, where you will learn about the tools that slaves used to do their work in the sugar factories, the tour will take you to the historic pillory La Picota, where rebellious slaves were publicly flogged. After the historic city tour, you will leave Santo Domingo heading west. Along the way, you will pass historic sites such as La Puerta de Lemba, one of the city gates where the head of Sebastian Lemba, a rebellious slave leader now revered as a national hero, was once displayed after being beheaded by Spanish colonial rulers. After leaving Santo Domingo, you will visit the ruins of the Ingenio Boca de Nigua sugar factory. The well-preserved structures of the factory will give you an idea of the historical sugar and rum production solely by the power of slaves and oxen. You’ll also learn how the tools you learned about earlier at the Rum Museum were used. The site is also of particular historical interest, as it was here in 1521 that the first uprising of slaves in the New World took place. Afterwards, you will drive to the ruins of the first hydroelectric sugar factory, Ingenio Diego Caballero.
On the way back to stop at a restaurant best known for its specialty pastel en hoja, dough stuffed with meat and steamed in a banana leaf, but also offers other Dominican delicacies.
After lunch on the way back to Santo Domingo, stop at a third historic sugar factory, Ingenio de Engombe, notable for the well-preserved remains of the factory owner’s mansion. Afterwards return to your hotel.

Yucatan Yucatan Highlights with Calakmul, Driver & Guide

On this exciting tour you will visit the main attractions of the Yucatan Peninsula. Right at the beginning Tulum, a Mayan cult site enthroned over the Caribbean Sea. You will also discover Palenque, Uxmal and Chichen Itza, other silent witnesses of a lost civilization. A new highlight is Calakmul in the state of Campeche, which is comparatively untouched by tourism. And what’s more: Calakmul impresses with a spectacular location in the middle of the rainforest, away from any civilization. As isolated as Calakmul is today, it was just as important in the time of the Mayas.
Enjoy the exotic fauna and flora on a jungle walk, bathe in one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Mexico and watch pink flamingos in the lagoon of Celestun on a lively boat trip. You will also visit architecturally outstanding colonial cities in Merida, Izamal and Valladolid and bathe in mysterious cenotes, where the ancient Mayans celebrated rituals.

Day 1: Cancun - Tulum - Bacalar

In the morning you will visit the Mayan site of Tulum, built high above the Caribbean Sea. Unlike all other Maya sites, Tulum is located directly on the sea. The most famous buildings are the so-called castle, the "Temple of the Descending God", the "Temple of the Wind" and the fresco temple.
Then continue to the Lagoon of the Seven Colors in Bacalar, which received the title Pueblo Magico. The Fort of San Felipe de Bacalar is located in the center of Bacalar. The fortress was built in 1725 by Antonio de Figueroa y Silva, Governor of Yucatán, as a strong defense for the preservation of the state against the advance of the English colonial rulers. It was completed in 1733. Afterwards you can take a refreshing swim in the Cenote Azul.
Overnight at Hotel Carolina, Cat. Standard Garden View

Day 2: Bacalar - Chicanna - Calakmul

Welcome to a 2.5 hour boat adventure in Laguna Bacalar. First stop at Cenote Cocalitos / Stromatolites, which is 90 meters deep. Stromatolites are ancestors of corals that go back to the origin of life on the planet. Your next stop is the famous Pirate Canal, where the shallow and warm water creates an unforgettable backdrop. Can you imagine the battles against pirates who tried to pillage the area nearly 400 years ago? Continue to the Black Cenote / Cenote of the Witch, a place full of fantasy and mystery. The depth exceeds 100 meters, so you can see a change in color in the water. At this point, you will see why it is known as the Lagoon of the 7 Colors.
Continue to the so-called Rio Bec region. The city of Chicanná was inhabited between 300 and 1100 years AD and is home to buildings of the Chenes style and the Rio Bec style. During the classical period, the city benefited from its location on the central trade route between the Gulf Coast and the Caribbean coast. The most famous building in Chicanná is on the east side of the courtyard. The central entrance to the courtyard is built as a snake mouth entrance, the carved stone masonry of which is of excellent quality. Drive to the Hotel Puerta Calakmul at the entrance of the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve.
During nightfall we visit the nearby bat cave in the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve. It is a cave with a depth of 54 meters, in which, according to experts, about four million bats of nine species live. Thousands of these incredible mammals come out of the cave at sunset almost every day at sunset in search of food and offer one of the most impressive spectacles that nature can offer.
Overnight at Hotel Puerta Calakmul, Cat. Cabaña

Day 3: Calakmul - Palenque

After breakfast, drive deep into the rainforest to the mystical site of Calakmul. Calakmul was a powerful Mayan city during the Classical Period. Together with El Mirador and Tikal, Calakmul is one of the largest Mayan cities ever discovered. A visitor center marks the entrance to the Calakmul National Park. From there, a gravel road leads deep into a jungle area, where the once mighty Mayan city is waiting to be discovered. Calakmul extended over an area of about 30 square kilometers and had over 100 colossal buildings; a total of more than 5,000 buildings are known. The so-called "structures" or pyramids I and II are dominant here. The latter has a height of approx. 45 meters. Most of Calakmul, however, has not yet been excavated or further explored. One can only speculate about the number of inhabitants. For the city center, for example, a population of around 50,000 is assumed. The enormous dimensions of the main pyramid are impressive, from the top platform of which you have an unforgettable view over the seemingly endless jungle deep into Guatemala. In the afternoon drive to Palenque.
Overnight at Hotel Villas Mercedes, cat. Deluxe

Day 4: Palenque - Roberto Barrios Waterfalls - Palenque

Palenque was founded around 300 BC. And was in its full bloom in the 7th and 8th centuries AD. All the buildings that can still be seen today date from this period. Thus, Palenque was one of the first sites of the classical Maya period, which was abandoned for reasons that have not yet been clarified. The "Temple of Inscriptions" impresses with more than 620 hieroglyphs and tells the story of the Mayan king Pacals from the time of his accession to the throne in 615 AD. For almost 70 years, Pacal, who was crowned at the age of 12, directed the fortunes of Palenque. The discovery of his tomb in a temple built in his honor was one of the great archaeological sensations in Mayan history.
Afternoon swimming at the nearby Roberto Barrios waterfalls. Return to Palenque.
Overnight at Hotel Villas Mercedes, cat. Deluxe

Day 5: Palenque - Campeche

Drive along the Gulf of Mexico past idyllic fishing villages such as Champoton. In the early afternoon we reach the port city of Campeche.
The Archaeological Museum in the Baluarte San Miguel is located a little outside the city of Campeche. This museum has 10 rooms, it consists of two unique collections of its kind in the entire Maya region, which also include the jadeite burial masks from the royal tombs of Calakmul and the collection of funerary figures from the island of Jaina.
In 1540, today's Campeche was founded by Spanish settlers. A flourishing port city on the Gulf of Mexico, which has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999, quickly developed. Towards the end of the 17th century, the Spaniards built large fortifications to protect against pirate attacks; these "Baluartes" are still one of the city's most important sights today. The beautiful and lovingly restored colonial buildings of the city lie within this belt of fortresses. The La Concepcíon Cathedral and the "heart" of the city, the small Zocalo Parque Principal, are worth a visit.
Overnight at Hotel Plaza Campeche, Cat. Standard

Day 6: Campeche - Uxmal - Celestun - Merida

Drive past citrus plantations to Uxmal. The Uxmal archaeological site is about 60 kilometers south of Merida and shows the history of the late classical Maya era. This large, Puuc-style ruin complex is one of the most interesting in the world. The name Uxmal stands for "the three times built". The significance of many of the buildings that were built between 600 and 950 AD has not yet been fully deciphered. The beautifully decorated facades, huge terraces and squares, columns and arches are impressive.
Celestún is a mangrove biosphere reserve, which is known for its high flora and fauna diversity. The Estuary is the only colony of Cuban flamingos in Mesoamerica, besides the occurrence in Río Lagartos. Boat trips are offered here to observe the main attraction, the numerous pink flamingos. In addition, numerous North American water birds overwinter in Celestún from December to March. In addition to fish, shrimps and mussels, the living creatures in Celestún include numerous species of birds such as brown pelicans, frigate birds, cormorants, herons, snow ibis and mangrove buzzards. The Celestún mangrove area was declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 2004.
Overnight at Hotel La Mision de Fray Diego, Cat. Standard

Day 7: Merida - Izamal - Chichen Itza

City tour of Merida. The most beautiful buildings include the huge cathedral, the bishopric, the Palacio Municipal and the Casa de Montejo, the home of the city founder with the portal decorated with figures. The influence of Spain and France can be felt all over the city. For example, the Champs-Elysees served as a model for the Boulevard Paseo de Montejo. Don't miss a visit to the colorful market. Continue to the yellow city of Izamal.
City tour in Izamal includes a visit to the dominant Franciscan convent, the spacious main square bordered by the convent and colonial buildings with arcades. Further to the ruins of Itzamatul, which with 21 m carried a quite high platform with a temple for the god Itzamná. The northern and eastern sides have been restored and show a five-tier structure. The highest pyramid platform of Izamal is called Kinich Kak Moo with sides of 200 m and a platform height of 36 m. The main access to the platform is from the south side, where a monumental megalithic staircase made of huge worked stone blocks is far in front. Finally, visit the cultural center for handicrafts with a permanent exhibition of objects created by great masters of Mexican folk art. In the evening you will arrive at Chichen Itza.
Overnight at Hotel Hacienda Chichen Itza Resort, Cat. Standard

Day 8: Chichen Itza - Valladolid - Cancun / Riviera Maya

In the archaeological zone of Chichen Itza, the Mayan culture, further developed by the influence of the Toltecs from central Mexico, is expressed in all its splendor. "El Castillo" is the most impressive building in this Mayan city with a height of 30 meters. The largest ball court in the Yucatán can also be found in Chichen Itza. The building "El Caracol" is reminiscent of a snail shell and was discovered and drawn in 1842 by the researcher Frederick Catherwood. The Mayans used the local observatory to observe Venus and its orbit, among other things.
Cenote Dzitnup was discovered by chance around 1950 and is about 10 kilometers outside of Valladolid. The underground water basin, which can be reached via steep steps, offers a wonderful refreshment opportunity by jumping into the cold water. There is an opening above the turquoise-blue water of the tiny lake, through which the penetrating daylight illuminates the pool, which is why the cenote is best visited at lunchtime. Many fish live in the crystal clear water and directly above there are numerous stalactites that have formed over time on the ceiling of the underground cave. Then transfer to your hotel in Cancun or on the Riviera Maya.
