Excursions

The following is a list of the excursions run in 2002 by JMC from the Sol Club Cayo Coco. As they are, as far as I am aware, mostly state-run the price is not likely to change much from hotel to hotel.

 

Bear in mind that most of the long-range excursions use internal flights. Whilst there is a great deal of concern about Aerotaxi, the flights that we used for Havana and Cienfuegos were superb. The need to use aircraft does bump up the price a little!

 

Prices are in US dollars. If you need a currency convertor go here.
