About the Tour

Cuba might not be internationally known for its street food, but locals know that Havana streets are full of cheap, convenient, and tasty comfort food — and if you want an authentic local experience, this is one you can’t miss! Perhaps you’ve already heard about “peso” pizzas — the legendary 50-cent pizzas that many a budget traveller has lived off of while in Cuba — or maybe you’ve seen pictures of freshly fried churros in your Instagram feed. On this tour you’ll try those and more!

The tour starts in Havana’s Parque Central. From there we’ll walk down the popular pedestrian street Calle Obispo to sample all the fried or sugary delights that the vendors have to offer. We may end up with a frozen treat sold by one of Havana’s most colourful characters in Plaza Vieja, or perhaps a hot chocolate in the Museo del Chocolate Café. We never know what we’ll find — the concept of “here one day, gone the next” is a familiar one in Cuba, and it’s part of what keeps things interesting!

This is a cultural tour and along the way you’ll learn about Cuban tastes, history, economy, and receive recommendations for the rest of your stay.
