JefferyMarch 18, 2025Cuban Adventure did an excellent job. I was impressed with the knowledge and friendless of the tour guides. It was wonderful overall experience. Great way to immerse yourself and learn about the culture of the Cuban people.
AndreaFebruary 14, 2025If you want to see Havana and the Cuban countryside in an authentic, meaningful way, there is no better option than Cuban Adventures. Go behind-the-scenes and get an intimate, genuine glimpse of life, work, and play in places no ordinary tourist would ever find. If you want to engage in real discussion with local business people, artists, and city residents, this is for you. It was the opposite of a boring, cushy vacation. No hotel is as good as a casa particulares. This trip will open your eyes to the magic of Havana and the richness of the island's lush greenery, amazing cuisines, and the genuinely welcoming, resourceful people of Cuba.
