"Havana at night" Bike Tour
Description
Our proposal is that you make this trip at sunset, we will go through the most important areas of the city at night, and we will get a completely different impression than the one Havana offers us in daylight.
Havana at night is different. Its dimly lit streets make our bike rides a magical and challenging experience. But relax because it is a safe and welcoming place. During the trip, you will enjoy the eclectic architecture, the lights, the colors and its people.

- We head for the Malecón Habanero, Cuba's most famous seafront avenue; with its six lanes it is topped by a wide sidewalk, crowned by a wall that serves as a seat for thousands of people contemplating the blue sea, the passage of ships, or the beloved face of those who share a beautiful moment as they appreciate the sunset.
- From here on, the journey becomes stricter, as we enter the dark streets of Centro and Habana Vieja.
- On the way we will cross the Plaza de la Revolución, a place of singular historical value for having been the scene of many of the main acts and events of the Cuban Revolution. In the great esplanade that makes up the square, Party congresses and various international events have been held, as well as acts of solidarity with brother nations, anniversaries and other important events, general assemblies of the Cuban people, marches of the fighting people, workers', military and student parades, student graduation ceremonies and pioneer initiation, solemn evenings and farewell mourning events.
