Passports, Visas and
Tourist Cards: You will need your
passport when checking into the airport.
We will provide a Visa to enter Cuba.
Please keep these in a safe place and do not lose them! You must show the tourist card exiting Cuba.
Once you arrive in Havana I would recommend you use the safe
in your room. It is only $1.00-$2.00 a
day. You can keep your passport as well
as your money and valuables in there safely.
Weather in Cuba: The weather in Cuba is a typical Caribbean
climate, sunny, humid and warm. There
can be an occasional rainstorm that passes quickly, so it’s a good idea to have
a light raincoat. A mid-weight raincoat is also recommended along with a small
travel umbrella. Sunscreen is advisable
also.
Safety: Havana is relatively safe but common sense
travel wisdom is advised. Please keep
your backpacks closed, don’t wear flashy jewelry and carrying large sums of
money with you and your passport is not advised. Make a copy of your passport before you
leave.
Bringing items back: Under the new restrictions for Cuba
implemented the summer of 2004, travelers to Cuba can only bring back
informational materials which could be considered CD’S, books, films or
tapes. The purchasing of cigars and rum
is prohibited and any materials technically can be confiscated by the US
customs agents. There are no limitations
on informational materials.
