Should Cuba be on Your Travel List?

I often receive emails from nervous tourists asking about safety in Cuba. Many foreigners have some terrible impressions of Havana. I always tell them to relax. I explain that Cuba is a really safe, and popular destination. There is always something interesting and exciting to do in Havana. Regardless if you are a seasoned world traveler or a relatively newbie explorer, Havana (and Cuba in general) should certainly be on your list of places to visit.

A Truly Memorable Havana Experience

I recently helped a young couple make their travel arrangements in Havana. They informed themselves well about what to expect on their trip and they used that knowledge to their advantage as they explored the city. They sent me this little report about their experiences in Cuba.

They stayed in a casa particular in the Vedado neighborhood of Havana. The casa is called Casa Gustavo, and it is one of our most popular rental properties.

Loving Their First Time In Havana – Laura & Lyndon

 

Hi Mario,

 

I just wanted to drop you an e-mail to thank you for helping me arrange such a lovely holiday.  We’ve been back 2 weeks now and it has been manic since we did, it was quite nice being cut off with no mobile or easy access to internet I can tell you!

 

Gustavo was absolutely lovely and we got on really well with my pigeon Spanish and Gustavo’s slightly better English and he was always helpful and welcoming.
