5.0 out of 5 stars
A very useful guide,
By Aila Manninen and Pekka Sauramo (Helsinki, Finland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bicycling Cuba: 50 Days of Detailed Ride Routes from Havana to Pinar Del Rio and the Oriente (Paperback)
Bicycling Cuba turned out to be invaluable during our three-week trip to the western part of Cuba. The authors really know what they are writing about. Some of the most interesting and rewarding routes suggested in the book were not on the best maps available. The authors way of describing the routes kilometer by kilometer was of great help because very often roads were unmarked. At the intersections we had no problems in choosing the right road. The book also contains a lot of other useful information, for example, on accomodation. We warmly recommend Bicycling Cuba for independent cyclists planning a trip to Cuba.
