Havana Free Bike Tour

Pedal past forts, plazas and the Malecón

4.6 (156) · Bookable via Civitatis

Trade cobblestones for wheels on this two-hour ride through Havana, from the fortified walls of Castillo de la Real Fuerza on Plaza de Armas to the open sweep of the Malecón, where the sea wall runs straight into the horizon. It's the fastest way to cover ground most walking tours don't reach, from quiet residential streets to the grand dome of El Capitolio.

Your guide sets a relaxed pace suited to riders of all levels, stopping at parks, churches and viewpoints along the way to fill in the history behind what you're seeing. Bikes and helmets are provided — just bring sunscreen and a sense of balance.
