The Best of NileGuide
- There's only so many museums and monuments one can take. When you start itching for fresh air and open spaces, it's time to delve into the outdoor activities of Santiago de Cuba. Grab your sunscreen and a towel for lounging seaside. Or take a hike in the Parque Baconao, a nature preserve on the outskirts of town. So get out of the city, and get back to nature.
