Cuba

Cuba holds a unique and intricate position in the American cultural and political narrative. Formerly a favored socialite destination, the opulence of 20th-century Havana paved the way for the Communist revolution, leading to a lasting embargo. Today, Cuba, the largest Caribbean Island, presents opportunities for People-to-People and Support the Cuban People trips, distinguishing itself as the Caribbean’s least commercialized and most captivating destination.

Cuba stands at a significant moment in history as the entire island opens up to tourism, fostering more personal encounters in this diverse land shaped by centuries of African, Caribbean, Spanish, and indigenous influences. This unique fusion has given rise to a rich legacy of political and social movements, transforming Cuba into a cultural mosaic awaiting exploration.

Despite political and economic isolation, Cuba preserves deep roots of traditional cultural heritage among its professionals and working-class communities. The sensual rhythms, political revolutions, art, and passion of Latin America find their roots in the influences encountered while traveling among the friendly, passionate, and sophisticated Cuban people on our small group adventures to Cuba.
Our Cuba explorations, guided by locals, delve into Havana’s vibrant streets and rural gems. Led by Cuban guides, we uncover local life visiting artisan workshops, and sustainable agricultural projects, and immersing ourselves in music and dance traditions.

As the Cuban tourism infrastructure slowly catches up with the rest of the world, our accommodations range from superior hotels in urban areas to renovated casas particulares – private family-run B&Bs full of charm and character. It’s worth noting that the present situation in Cuba is dynamic, and travelers should stay informed about any travel advisories or changes in regulations to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience in this captivating country.
