Also, make sure you have an itinerary that supports your visit. We chose “People-to-People” at the time, but I believe that is no longer an option. Keep your itinerary handy even after the trip.

You can choose “In support of the Cuban people” and make sure you have an itinerary where you are learning about the culture. We didn’t go hang out at beaches and our tours were booked with local companies at the time.

MD when were passports revoked? Policies toward Cuba seem to constantly shift

Bring a passport

I would probably go through a state dept approved tour operator to ensure you’re not going to get flagged by the us Govt for going to Cuba. I used to work for a nonprofit that had an affiliated travel company and the company did an annual tour to Cuba (they got approved under the educational and cultural provisions for traveling to the country). The state dept review of the tour’s itinerary was very thorough. I wouldn’t want to get caught on the wrong side of the law on this and risk like other people said getting my passport revoked or worse. One of my former colleagues went on one of their tours to Cuba and said it was an amazing and rewarding experience but I personally wouldn’t want to risk anything by going on my own and shouldering that responsibility on myself.

Just curious what year was this? Seems govt policy keeps changing and seems that currently policy is light on enforcement

Be careful of the water and the ice in drinks. Bring plenty of cash as another person said. Bring your own TP, most public places don’t have it and u can “buy” a square.

Me too. Planning on Cuba for Thanksgiving and taking my family
