A guide to Cuba is useless unless you know how to get there! We’ve done the work and experienced first-hand what it takes to make your dream of visiting Cuba a reality.
After learning that cruise ships were going to start sailing from the United States to Cuba, we felt the urgency to visit before the culture became diluted by an influx of American tourists. Due to the complex history and animosity between the United States and the island nation, travel to Cuba has been shrouded in mystery for most Americans. We wanted to see the authentic Cuba and didn't want to spend a fortune in the process. Despite so many unanswered questions, we took the plunge and booked our airfare and accommodations...
Since then, we have culled through all the conflicting information and verified the steps necessary for successful travel to Cuba. Everything we wish we knew before we traveled is included in this invaluable book. Join us on a narrative journey of our first visit to the island in February 2017 with glimpses of Havana that you won't find in the conventional guides.
We did the research and have compiled the most up-to-date information for you. This book provides the details you need including:
- Airlines and booking
- Accommodations
- Visa regulations for travelers from the U.S.
- Tourist cards and Cuban medical insurance
- Understanding Cuba's dual monetary system
- Cell phone and internet use on the island
- Tips for sightseeing
Bonus materials include:
*Detailed packing lists with recommended medications.
*A review of an indispensable app that can be used offline, with maps and recommendations of attractions.
*Havana Bingo - a friendly competition for up to 10 players to complete as a fun scavenger hunt through the city.
