The camps
After the experience accumulated and according to the views and comments from more than 2,000 Titans who have gone through our events experience, we know that one of the aspects most valued by the participants are the camps. The experience of living with people from different places and different backgrounds adds the opportunity to live for a few days in full contact with nature, in very different conditions to which we do in our daily lives
In the Titan tropic Cuba by GAES all these elements will be particularly accentuated by the small group of participants, and especially the exceptional natural environment of the locations of the camps. The lush vegetation, the permanent presence of the native fauna and the singular light of the island of Cuba, will make this edition’s camps, dream scenarios.
