How to get in Varadero
Juan Gualberto Gomez Airport . Many package tours fly directly to Varadero from Canada and from Europe. There is a currency exchange booth only in the departures hall. The booth in the arrivals hall is now closed.
Taxi from airport to the town (about 10km) costs about 25-30CUC. It may be possible to bargain the fare to about 20CUC, but not much less.
Alternately you can walk out to the airport parking lot and tip (5-10CUC) one of the tour bus drivers to hitch a ride to your hotel/resort - this always works out cheaper than taxi if you travel solo.
Viazul Buses arrive from Havana and Matanzas three times daily. These buses also stop at the Varadero airport. They run a daily overnight service from Santiago de Cuba, stopping at Sancti Spiritus, Camagüey, and Santa Clara in the middle of the night. There is also a morning bus to Santa Clara, Cienfuegos, and Trinidad, returning in the afternoon/early evening.
Hiring a car is also possible in the Varadero Airport or through various hotels.
