Havana Cocktail Tour
Description
A visit to Havana is incomplete without exploring the most renowned bars of the Cuban capital and tasting its signature cocktails: make the most of your time on the Island of Rum with this immersive experience!
Havana Cocktail Tour
Your journey begins at the historic Hotel Inglaterra, situated in the vibrant heart of Havana, before setting off to your first destination: Sloppy Joe's, conveniently located near the National Fine Arts Museum and Central Park.
As you step into this iconic establishment, you'll be transported back to a golden era of Havana, having recently reopened after 48 years, now beautifully restored to showcase its historical charm. Sloppy Joe's became a hotspot during the Prohibition era in the United States, attracting American visitors seeking alcohol, gaming, and nightlife that was forbidden in their homeland. Settle onto a stool at the mahogany bar, just as legends like Ernest Hemingway, Spencer Tracy, and Cantinflas did, and delight in a classic Cuban cocktail while marveling at the traditional decor and the glass cabinets stocked with spirits from around the globe.
Following this rich introduction to Havana's cocktail scene, your expedition continues to the next venue on your itinerary: El Floridita. This distinguished bar and restaurant, in operation since 1817, was another beloved spot of Hemingway. Here, it’s customary to taste his signature drink: the daiquiri. He famously spent countless hours here enjoying this rum-based delight while crafting the manuscript for "For Whom The Bell Tolls."
Your adventure in cocktail culture in the Cuban capital comes to a close at your last stop: La Bodeguita del Medio. This quintessential Havana bar is not only celebrated for its mojitos but also for the celebrities' autographs that adorn its walls, with Hemingway's being the most legendary! Much like he once did, you will have the chance to declare, "I had my mojito in La Bodeguita and my daiquiri in El Floridita."
As the tour concludes, you'll make your way back to the Hotel Inglaterra after an enriching 6-hour experience.
