dshapiro Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 ¡Hola amigos! Heading to Havana for the first time in May with a few buddies. Looking to spend a day in Pinar del Rio and Viñales. Anyone have any hints on a way to get a tobacco farm/plantation tour? Possibly with transportation included from Havana? Also looking to buy a few farm rolls while I'm there. Thanks in advance.
Habana Mike Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Hire a driver and have them take you to Vegas Robaina - head to Pinar del Rio, follow the Carretera Central southwest out of Pinar del Río for 12km, turn left toward San Luis and left again after approximately 3km at the Robaina sign. This rougher track continues for 1.5km to the farm. Hector Luis' farm is also a good one to visit. 2

Do you know how much a driver would cost round trip?
Habana Mike Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 I'd say you could swing both in a day. Both have farm rolls available. Not sure what a driver costs these days, everything seems to be inflating! Still probably not prohibitively expensive though.
