Just What We Wanted and More We contacted Cilla at Cross Cultural Journeys just a couple of weeks before we had an opening in our schedule and could do this top bucket list trip to Cuba. Within a few days she had put together the outline of a wonderful journey and, within a week, we were set. Our two weeks in Cuba, beginning in the East (Santiago/Baracoa) and ending with a week based in Havana, was full of delightful experiences and much to digest in our areas of expertise and interest: music, culture, people to visit and speak with. Our guide Jesus Noguera, with us for the whole journey (except during planned alone time), was the best and we look forward to seeing him again.

Traveling to Cuba with Cross Cultural Journeys I went on a wonderful trip to Cuba in Oct. 2015. We had an excellent time, food choices, accommodations, tour guide were all wonderful. I would definitely return to Cuba with Cilla and Cross Cultural Journeys.

Most of the fellow travelers rarely joined any controlled travel arrangement and were independent minded, but we all enjoyed the new friends. With the opening of Cuba, this was the only way to enter Cuba. With the new Federal laws, there will be limits as to where one can stay and if there will be any travel allowed. But the CCJ tour was well worth the experience.

The trip was amazing The trip was amazing! Excellent itinerary, people and amazing experiences of music! Many delicious meals, street fun, dance exhibitions (and joining in). People were friendly, kind, interested and interesting. Leaders were knowledgeable and approachable. Highly recommend this journey. Don't fly United! One Plane was freezing cold for some reason.

Cross Cultural Journeys made all… Cross Cultural Journeys made all arrangements for a trip that in one week gave us a deep and wide view of Cuba’s history, culture and it’s various visions of the future. The guide they provided was a former university professor who spoke perfect English, was fun to be with, loved his country and was eager to help us learn about it. We learned a ton and enjoyed ourselves enormously!
