Oh wow! That would be awesome! Do you remember what the cost/timings were please?

Thanks so much; sounds like we will have a fun day!

Thanks so so much for the really helpful ideas. Lots to look at here :)

I did wonder if the cultural visit programme was also something that applied to UK visitors (I’ve read about the requirement that is hit and miss for US visitors to Cuba, but we were able to visit before Obama’s work to loosen restrictions). So I do need to look that up in more detail.

Hi, I’m new on here! :D

Have one cruise only under our belts from 2011 ... It’s been a while but we’re v excited!

We’ve just booked a five day Florida to Cuba cruise with RCCL and are looking for ALL YOUR BEST TIPS please!

Anything we need to know about RCCL (last cruise was DCL) for instance?

Specifically ...

Reluctant to rely just on the cruise co’s excursions, so thinking of booking our own vintage car tour in Havana - we will be overnight there. Has anyone done this and have tips please? Husband has wanted to visit Havana for ages and fitting much in is tantamount to such a short visit ... anyone know of seeing Buena Vista Social club is easy to arrange? That would be a big deal for him. Our kids will be 17 and 14.

Ditto we’d like to book a snorkel session for son and me (he’ll be17) as one of his favourite memories of the 2011 cruise was snorkelling on sapphire beach and seeing all the fish up close - he still loves that kind of thing!

Our daughter loves cool things, is quite arty, likes warm sun and white sands ... she’ll join in snorkelling but is not a big boat trip fan (cruises are fine, just not little pleasure boats).
