More Adventures for You and Your ‘Ukulele in 2023
Cuban ‘Ukulele Rhythms – March 13 – 21, 2023
More than a tour, this is an experience that showcases the best modern Cuba has to offer, from the jazz clubs in Havana to private house concerts in beautiful Trinidad. In addition to music, we’ll dabble in Cuban cuisine, dance, art, and natural history…all while supporting the Cuban people. And best of all, our main “ride” is a 1948 Dodge Limo we lovingly call “Mimi.”
Uke, Bike & Barge – Burgundy Aug. 29 – Sept. 5, 2023
Hands down, this is one of the best ways to experience Europe: from the seat of a bike and the deck of a slow-moving barge. We cycle each day (or not) and meet our floating motel each afternoon where a delicious snack and aperitif awaits, followed by evenings of ‘ukulele merriment. This will be our sixth Uke, Bike, & Barge adventure, and each one seems better than the last. Can’t make it this year? No worries, we’ll be adding more in 2024.
The West Coast Ukulele Retreat November 1 – 5, 2023
In the spirit of “That sure was fun, let’s do it again,” we are returning to Camp Ocean Pines in Cambria, CA for yet another magical West Coast ‘Ukulele Retreat. Three full days and four nights of ukulele instruction, merriment, and mayhem. Aka “The most fun you can have with your ‘ukulele on.” Plus, what has become a wonderful Retreat tradition, the Sunday Morning ‘Ukulele Gospel Hour. We’ve just now finalized the dates and will be posting more details soon. In the meantime, it’s not too early to start thinking about your lodging arrangements if you don’t want to stay in a shared cabin or bring your own rig (or…brrr….tent!)
Join us in 2024!
Here are just a few of the events and trips we’re already working on for 2024: Some old friends (that just keep getting better) along with some brand new adventures.
All That (Cuban) Jazz January 20 – 29, 2024
Some of our favorite sights and sounds from Cuban ‘Ukulele Rhythms have been worked into the fun and festivities of the Havana Jazz Festival. This one is not uke-centric, but offers a real beat on Cuban jazz along with the other wonderful, up-close and personal opportunities we have become known for. Partnering, again, with Cuba Careo Tours, to bring you the best of Cuba.
Cuban ‘Ukulele Rhythms February 16 – 25, 2024
Up close and personal. That’s the way we do Cuba! Sights, sounds, and experiences you won’t get anywhere else. Past participants have called it “life changing” and “the trip of a lifetime.” We’re adding an extra day to the standard trip in 2024 and an opportunity to visit Viñales for those who want to stay a few more days! This one just keeps getting better. And, again…no more than 10 people.
The Great Alaska ‘Ukulele Adventure
Legendary wildlife and magnificent glaciers, along with nightly ukulele merriment make this the adventure of a lifetime. This is not only one of the best ways to visit S.E. Alaska, it’s one of the best ways to travel, period. And, what a perfect backdrop for evenings on board strumming our ukes. Lions! And Tigers! And Bears! Oh my!
