These are available for one-hour tours for about 30 CUC. Not cheap by Cuban standards but, once you've seen them, you may just not be able to resist.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hackneyed though it may be, the hop on/hop off tourist bus in Havana makes a lot of sense. First off, in a city where transport is pricey for tourists, these CUC$5 are well spent if only as a means of getting around. Secondly, while you won’t be using the bus to explore the crumbling splendour of Havana Vieja’s side streets, you will hit other more distant spots like the Plaza de la Revolucion, with its somewhat scary murals of Che and Camilo Cienfuegos, and the artisan market. But nicest of all, in a city where much of the life (and best photos) happen one floor up on the bustling, colourful  balconies, the open-top bus gives you some of the best views in town.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Half-hourly English-language tours at Cuba's oldest cigar factory offer a fascinating insight into the creation of some of the worlds most prized cigars. Spread across several open-plan workshops – in which workers are read to from a newspaper – and strewn with bales of tobacco leaves, wooden implements and stacks of attractive cigar boxes, the factory is visually striking. And even if you don’t indulge, by the time you leave you’ll know your Cohiba’s from your Montecristo’s, which, if nothing else, makes for a good party trick.]]></description>
