Is this trip right for you
  • The guesthouses (casas) used are much nicer than your average Cuban dwelling, and each room is unique. Regardless of where you stay, power cuts and breaks in the hot water supply are sometimes unavoidable, as in any developing country – but we believe this is all a part of the local experience. To help set your expectations, please read the ‘Accommodation’ section of the Essential Trip Information.
  • Luxuries such as air conditioning, plush pillows and fly screens are often scarce. Part of the experience here is learning to appreciate everyday Cuban resourcefulness.
  • You might have to save your status updates and photo posts for when you get home, as internet connection can be hard to find, unreliable and expensive. Treat Cuba as a holiday from social media too!
