You would have thought that Mark & Todd had struck gold! Their first time on a Cuban tobacco farm was a huge success, as you can see from the photos. They played around in the fields, explored the drying houses where the women were busy at work, learned to roll a cigar, smoked two before leaving this farm, and even bought 50!There’s a first time for everything. What’s something you look forward to the most when visiting Cuba?#gardnertours #pinardelrio #cigartour #cuba #hospitality #americansincuba #cubancigar #culture #adventure #explore #cuba2023 #tobacco

When in Cuba, you sometimes just have to stop and inspect the classic cars. Mark & Todd took the time on their Premium Cuba Cigar Tour to browse tons of cars, but this specific car is a 1955 Chevrolet Bel-Air with an original V8. What a unique car!What’s your favorite classic car?

Our journey began in 2012, but as of today, our business is officially six years old! Our roots were planted when Colby Gardner was invited to Cuba to work with locals in their churches and organizations, helping support them as they reached for their goals. From the beginning, he connected with the Cuban people in a unique way and it was almost unspeakable how much he felt at home. After traveling 20 countries in two years, Colby had found his match. From first impressions all the way to being an encouraging voice in the most vulnerable times, he felt embraced like family. Little did he know what it would turn into.After working almost five years in Cuba for up to eight months each year, Colby was wrestling with a dream to do something creative that would get him to Cuba more often and help create an honorable income for many. In the first five years, using a database that he had developed for fun, he sent a few handfuls of friends on special vacations (anniversary trips, honeymoons, etc). Still not sure what to do, one day he got a call from a friend, "I woke up with an idea that you're going to love. You have been in Cuba for five years, you have a huge database and extensive network throughout the island, you have sent a bunch of people on their own private vacations, and you would be amazing at it–start a travel company!" A lightbulb went off and Colby began to formalize what was once “chicken-scratch.” He did his research to ensure it was legal, purchased GardnerTours.com for $1.17 that night, then built a website the next day. Ten days later, we got our first private booking of 14 travelers! A lot has changed over the years, but we are honored to say that our team is growing, our level of hospitality and customization has increased to be deemed “world class” by many in the industry, and we have been able to serve some of the most amazing travelers along the way! To our travelers that have trusted us with your precious vacations, thank you. For those of you that are thinking about traveling with us, we are here to serve you with joy. But for now, celebrate with us, because today is a big day! Thank y'all again for taking this amazing journey with us!

It’s tobacco harvest season and Montesino has always been a class act! He is the owner of his multi-generational farm in the Pinar del Río Provence of Cuba. On this last Premium Cuba Cigar Tour, Colby and Montesino jointly invited Todd to sit down and try rolling a cigar. Montesino got in there and guided him through the entire process. Todd thought it was the most special thing and it touched our heart to see him enjoying it so much. If you’re lucky, we’ll let you give it a try when you visit. 😉We are still booking our Premium Cuba Cigar Tours for this year and 2024 is beginning to fill up!
