"Bicycling tours through Cuba are increasingly popular, although bike rentals are few and far between. If you are a serious biker and plan an extended tour, you should take along your own bike and spare parts.

Many airlines allow you to take your own bike. Be forewarned that the tour conditions can be difficult, with scarce food and few options for accommodations in many places along the way. The beautiful Pinar del Rio province is especially recommended for biking.

Royal Hideaway rents bicycles to the guests free of charge, you can also rent a moped for a fee and explore the beautiful cayos and its secluded beaches.

Don't forget to bring your camera."
