Had a fantastic day in Cienfuegos Cuba. We hired Alfredo Nodal, an English speaking Pedi cab driver and had the opportunity to see everything and more. His english is excellent, he is a gentleman, and provided history of the entire area. We went to a park in Punta Gorda, driving by some beautiful seaside homes, then to the Villeje Palacio where we toured the palace, enjoyed adult beverages and a concert on the rooftop. We saw the University, Hospital, the BaseBall Stadium where we watching the cienfuegos elephants warming up, then by a train station through local neighbor hoods seeing grocery stores, bakeries, and several schools. We asked to go to an art gallery and he brought us to the home of Hermes Santiago, an amazing Cuban artist whose family opened their home and gave us a tour of the gallery. We traveled through the marketplace and Jose Marti square seeing the Grand Cathedral and the gorgeous teatro. The pedicab ride was so enjoyable we could get on and off where we liked, and were very comfortable, sitting in shade. We cannot recommend Alfredo enough...below is his email address if you are visiting and want to connect with him ahead of time to reserve your tour. You will not be disappointed. Alfredo certainly touched our hearts and we truly loved learning about Cienfuegos with him as our guide. We learned the highlights, the history and saw the reality. Here is Alfredo's contact information
