Trinidad Free Walking Tour

This free walking tour lasts about three hours and covers the centre of Trinidad on foot. The guide speaks English. It starts outside the Iberostar Grand Trinidad Hotel. The thread of the route is the colonial city: cobbled streets, churches, the ruins of a theatre and squares, ending at Plaza de Santa Ana.

The tour starts outside the Iberostar Grand Trinidad Hotel, an example of the town's typical architecture. It then walks the cobbled streets to the San Francisco de Paula Church, a Franciscan place of worship in Cuba's central region during the colonial era, and goes on to the ruins of the Brunet Theatre, passing the Casa de Cultura cultural centre.

Next comes the Plaza Mayor, the town's historical centre, where the group looks at the surrounding buildings and visits the Amelia Peláez art gallery. There is a stop to try la canchara, a drink of the region, and another at the San Francisco de Asís Church, built in the 18th and 19th centuries, with its yellow tower. The tour ends at Plaza de Santa Ana, where the ruins of an old prison from colonial Trinidad can be seen.
