1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

We loved meeting the local people in Cuba during the tours. These were the tour guides and owners of the homes where we stayed. The highlight was the Farm to Table experience we had.

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

To be willing to adapt to changes in plans due to unforeseen circumstances. Neal and I are pretty easy going and went with an open adaptible mind with some changes to our itinerary. Everything we did was really enjoyable.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Yes, we felt our tips in US dollars was beneficial to the local people. We also gave a few people US dollars when they approached us with requests. Not all, but some. The Farm to Table experience was beneficial for reducing environmental impacts through organic farming.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

We thought this vacation was really excellent. We loved learning about Cuba and found the challenges the local people have every day in life just to survive were sad and enlightening. We are amazed at the resilience the Cuban people have to just keep going no matter what challenges they face. The tour operator did an excellent job helping Neal snd I have the best possible experience during our trip.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

Most memorable part of the trip was the food. The meat was amazing!

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Trust the team to plan an awesome trip.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

I feel that my vacation contributed to support for the Cuban people.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

The operator planned and executed a fantastic trip. On the pre-travel side, Karin was incredibly fast, responsive, knowledgeable and easy to work with. This was especially helpful given the misconceptions/confusion many Americans (myself included) have about the legality and ease of visiting Cuba. And in country, Eiser was the best tour guide I’ve had while traveling. Overall, I had a fantastic time and feel like I did my small part to contribute to support for the Cuban people. Thanks to the operator for making it happen. Would absolutely recommend using them for Cuba travel.
