The Latin American trips were centered around meeting locals and learning from the indigenous cultures plus the art and architecture.
When President Clinton opened up Cuba for American visitors and Cuba tours, it was a natural extension to our programs.
We do not sit in lecture halls, or do what is repeated on the mass produced trips by large travel companies.
We made our first trip to plan tour itineraries in August of 2001, now we’ve led over 200 Cuba tours. Our first Cuban friends from 2001 are waiting to meet you and others of our extended family.
Our trips focus on the people, art, architecture and creating an opportunity for you to be part of the Cuban culture.
You will enter homes, back doors of museums, and interact with Cubans who truly want to meet you and exchange ideas with you.
