WHAT IS CUBA LIKE?
• Your first impression of Cuba will be visual. Cuba looks like someone pressed a stop watch on January 1, 1959, the day that Fidel Castro’s revolution overthrew that dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista. A third of the cars are 40’s and 50’s American models. You have to love a country where there are more Desotos than Hondas! Havana is a beautiful colonial city, with a large historic quarter (Habana Vieja), museums and a spectacular waterfront walk called the Malecon. Cuban people are friendly, well educated and healthy, as a result of Cuba’s universal and free health care and education systems.
