Explore Havana Like a Local: Classic Cars & Colorful Streets

Explore Havana Like a Local: Classic Cars & Colorful Streets 🚗🌴
Get ready for a whirlwind Havana adventure where classic old cars line the avenues, rooftops give you citywide views, and every plaza pulses with history. Havana's irresistible vibe comes alive the moment you land — and every traveler should experience these must-see spots.

Top Spots to Visit:
1. La Antonia – Mazon #4 1er Piso E/Neptuno Y San Miguel
Kick off with local flavors at La Antonia. Friendly staff, authentic Cuban cuisine, and chill vibes — this spot's a local favorite.

2. Hotel Telegrafo – 408 P.º de Martí
Make Hotel Telegrafo your base. Beyond the free Wi-Fi and comfy, spacious rooms, the 24/7 rooftop pool scene is epic, especially for sunset cocktails. LGBTQ+ friendly, historic charm, great staff — and you can walk nearly everywhere from here.

3. Free Walking Tour Havana – 267 Agramonte
A free walking tour is THE hack for understanding Havana’s soul — the guides drop stories you won’t find in any book. Major tip: Bring cash for a tip, and wear comfy shoes.

4. Estatua a José Martí – 4JQR+2F5
Snap a selfie by this legendary statue and then wander through the leafy parks surrounding it for the ultimate Havana feel.

5. Plaza de la Revolucion – Hotel Inglaterra, 416 P.º de Martí
See Cuba’s icons on the biggest stage. This plaza is monumental, and the photo ops are serious.

6. Paseo del Prado & Central Park
Stroll the P.º de Martí, spot the old cars (seriously, vintage Chevrolets everywhere!), and grab a seat in Central Park under the palm trees for some of the city’s best people-watching.

Getting Around:
Walking covers Old Havana, but classic car taxis are a must for the full vintage experience (agree on the price up front!). For plazas farther out, hop in a shared taxi (collectivo).

Food Tips:
Try ropa vieja or a traditional Cuban sandwich at La Antonia, and sip a mojito on Hotel Telegrafo’s rooftop.

Destination Tips:
Bring cash (Euros or USD, as cards are rarely accepted), pack for warm weather, and expect some Wi-Fi slowdowns.
