Haitian and French influence in Santiago de Cuba.

In the 19th century, a French coffee farmer, who was fleeing the Haitian Revolution, built his mansion on this site. They named it his favorite slave, (Isabela), who became the mistress of the place. The old house is now a museum, where the coffee culture and the way of life of the French immigrants in that region are remembered.

It is also possible to make a Jeep safari and stay at the Gran Piedra Hotel after the rest of the group returns to Santiago de Cuba. Your luggage will be guarded, and you can book a transfer back the next day. It is an ideal option for hikers and nature lovers.
