The Sierra Maestra Tour will take you on the trail of Che Guevara where you will follow Che’s trail into the Sierra Maestra Mountains, see where he hid out during the revolutionary war to free Cuba from the constraints of Batista’s rule and the colonisation of America. You will also visit Santiago de Cuba , the birthplace of the revolutionary movement.
