Picked up in a recent publication, Santiago de Cuba famous for its historic uprisings and revolutions has been recommended as one of the best destinations in the world for the year 2010 and a must see place in your Cuba holidays.
There is no better place to get to know today’s Cuba than the celebrated Santiago de Cuba according to Frommers who has rated this city as one of the top 10 destinations.
“Santiago is a culturally rich and scenic city that retains the intimate, friendly feel of a provincial capital, with peaceful neighborhoods where men play dominoes outdoors on hilly streets,” the website said.
Rough Guides: a leading publisher of travel and reference information, respected for their accurate, up-to-date content pointed out that the next 12 months are critical in the development of the tourist industry in Cuba and suggested a great deal of change.
Reuters also suggests things might change drastically in the way Cuba deals with the tourist industry and urges holiday makers to visit the country before the expected massive flock of American tourists.
Santiago de Cuba is famous for many things such as its music, carnivals, history and landscapes but also for been the birth place of Don Facundo Bacardi who founded the famous Bacardi Rum.
Santiago has an International Airport however if traveling from Europe holidaymakers will have to use the nearest Airport in Holguin City about 3 hours drive from Santiago. Another alternative is to fly to Havana and after a short stay a 2 hour domestic flight to the eastern city.
There is no better time in the year to visit Santiago than when the Carnivals are taking place. The week comprising the 26 of July for over 100 years have seen the streets of Santiago filled with joyful locals enjoying the best of the Cuban music and of course the best of the Cuban Rums.
