Our tour was supposed to be about six hours. Jorge didn’t rush us at all and our tour actually went over that and lasted about seven hours. They will customize your tour if you don’t want to go that long. 

Our guide, Jorge, brought us to a nice place for lunch. I don’t recall the name but it was originally by a very nice house that is now used as a bed and breakfast. The owners converted the yard to a restaurant and bar. It was very nice and the staff and food was quite good. Everyone in our party of four enjoyed the food.

Our tour started around 9am with about 40 minutes of walking to various sites. Then we got in the classic car and continued with a number of stops where we got out to see the sites. All of us are Hemingway fans so we thoroughly enjoyed visiting he home. We also went to the Hotel Nacional de Cuba, which was the hotel where the mobsters met back in the 40’s. It was the one depicted in the Godfather II movie but wasn’t actually filmed there. The market Jorge brought us to was also interesting with lots of things to buy. You can also ask your guide for recommendations. You won’t be disappointed. Enjoy your trip. 

We just got back from our first trip to Cuba and used Blexie as our tour provider based on reviews we saw. We did not regret choosing them. Jorge was our tour guide and we had a 1960 Oldsmobile as our chariot. Jorge told us so much about both old and new Havana and was able to answer all our questions. Above all, his personality was wonderful and we came away from the tour knowing we had made a new friend. We can't compare our guide with any of the others since we have only used Jorge but, if he is an example of the quality of guide that Blexie has, I will definitely use his services again and recommend them to anyone else I know who may be planning a trip to Cuba.
