Review summary

This was a trip of a lifetime..We enjoyed Havana and we still talk about it today. The excursion was great. Being able to see a location that I never thought I would be able to see in my lifetime is just amazing.

This was a trip of a lifetime. Spent the first part of our day on the cruiseline sponsored excursion which turned out to be better than we expected. We visited all of the historic areas in Havana, had lunch, visited a community center which was nice. Spent the second half of our day as well as the next morning exploring Havana on our own. We are so glad we got on this trip when we did.

Obsolete, now we have lawsuits over the docking at piers claimed by descendants of the original folks that basically enslaved Cuba for activities banned in the US either on moral and/or other grounds.
