The Paradiso cultural tourism agency of the Artistic and Literary Productions Company (Artex) in Holguín concentrates its products in the nature tourism modality for this 2021, due to the health security it represents in times of COVID-19.
Emilio Ortiz, manager of the Paradiso agency, said to the local newspaper ¡ahora! that although these products have always been part of their services portfolio, they have decided to promote them for the enjoyment of the Cuban family since these facilities located in distinctive natural settings of the Island are an attractive option that also allows to preserve the physical distancing.
He specified among the main destinations in the northeastern territory the Salto del Guayabo, Cayo Bariay, the Roca Azul Biopark and Cayo Saetía, which are ideal places for hiking, horseback riding, observation of endemic species of Cuban flora and fauna as well as the opportunity to enjoy a good bath in one of the most attractive natural pools in the archipelago.
Once the epidemiological situation improves in the provinces of Santiago de Cuba and Guantánamo - currently in the limited autochthonous transmission phase – the agency will offer other options such as the visits to La Gran Piedra and Baracoa, places where visitors can also taste typical food of eastern Cuba such as: jigote, yuca fritters, bacán in casserole and stewed tetí, among others.
He added that in addition to these offers, the sales bureaus in the coastal municipality of Gibara and the Pico Cristal cafeteria in the city of Holguín also sell reservations for sun and beach hotels in the Holguín tourist destination.
Rescuing the cultural project started by the Paradiso agency and the Club Amigo Atlántico Guardalavaca hotel in August 2019 with great public acceptance and wide repercussions on social networks is one of the objectives of this group for the coming months, always ensuring the strict compliance with the sanitary measures in place to avoid contagion with the pandemic.
Since its foundation in 1994 the cultural tourism agency Paradiso, one of the business lines of the cultural products marketer Artex, proposes an approach to artistic creation through excursions, specialized courses and cultural events such as Romerías de Mayo and Fiesta de la Cultura Iberoamericana held every year in the months of May and October -respectively- in the province of Holguín.
