Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.

So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
Parque Vidal is the city's social heart, ringed by grand buildings like the Teatro La Caridad, the Santa Clara Libre hotel, and the former city hall, plus a statue honoring Marta Abreu, the philanthropist who shaped much of the city. From there, Calle Independencia offers a genuine local shopping strip, a good contrast to the more polished tourist areas elsewhere in Cuba.
Santa Clara sits roughly 270-300 km (168-186 miles) from Havana, about a 3 to 4 hour drive via the Autopista Nacional. A private transfer means one direct ride at a time you choose, instead of working around a bus timetable. Coming from Trinidad or Cienfuegos, Santa Clara is much closer, under 100 km (62 miles), typically 1 to 2 hours, making it an easy add-on to a trip through central Cuba.
Most travelers cover the highlights comfortably in three to four hours on the ground: the Che Guevara Mausoleum and Museum, the armored train monument, Parque Vidal, and Calle Independencia. A private transfer lets you set your own pace, linger longer at the museum, or wrap up early if you're combining Santa Clara with another stop along the way.
During the 1958 battle, Che and his small guerrilla unit derailed a train carrying government troops and weapons sent to reinforce Batista's army, a bold move that helped seal the city's fall. The site now preserves the actual derailed train cars as an open-air monument, with a small museum of weapons and photos from that pivotal fight. It's one of the few places in Cuba where you can stand at the exact spot history turned.
The mausoleum holds the remains of Che Guevara and 16 fellow guerrillas killed alongside him in Bolivia, brought back to Santa Clara for burial. Next door, the museum walks through his life from childhood in Argentina to the battle that helped win Cuba for Fidel Castro. Photographs, personal artifacts, and letters give the site a personal weight that goes beyond the famous image on a t-shirt.
Santa Clara isn't just another Cuban city, it's where the Revolution was actually won. In 1958 Che Guevara led the decisive Battle of Santa Clara here, and that history still shapes the city today, from his mausoleum to the armored train he famously derailed. Add a grand central park, elegant 19th century architecture, and a lively local shopping street, and you get a day that mixes major history with everyday Cuban life, well off the typical tourist trail.
