Jon Barber � Travel Consultant Trip Highlights Havana & Vi�ales Havana is an elegant capital of classic American cars, old forts, colonial streets and salsa rhythms. You travel west to Vi�ales to walk through lush countryside surrounded by sheer-sided mountains. Bay of Pigs Across the crocodile-infested Zapata Marshlands, you pause at the historic Bay of Pigs where the U.S. military invasion was repelled. You'll also explore the lively town of Cienfuegos. Trinidad & Mountains From the preserved colonial city of Trinidad you take a boat trip for snorkelling over the coral reef and a chance to swim off Caribbean beaches. You also head into the mountains and swim in crystal clear pools.
