Things to know

  • Cuba is one of the safest places in North America. That being said use common sense.
  • The most dangerous thing is being a pedestrian in Cuba. Cars have the right of way!  If you get hit, it will be your fault for being in front of a car.
  • Watch your footing. There are not the same safety standards.  You can find a man hole cover removed next to a side walk.
  • Be discreet when taking money out of wallets and do not wear expensive looking jewelry.
  • Potential scams. There are professional scam artists in tourist areas.
  • I keeps pens/candies on me.
  • Always check your bill. Many restaurants will short change you.
  • There are no toilette seats in Havana except in tourist hotels. You tip bathroom attendants change.
  • Change money at banks/airport and hotel (premium) Credit card with pin works in machines.  Always need passport for any financial transaction not in cash.  Budget $50.00 CUC per day for meals/transportation/incidentals There are 2 currencies. Local pesos and CUC (kook) or Convertibles. 1 CUC =0.80 CDN (2017)
  • There is no shopping in Cuba except for crafts, coffee, cigars, & rum.  (I can make recommendations)
  • Comply with luggage allowance on tickets. These guys are looking to make extra $.
  • Bottled water is available and recommended.
  • Ensure you have medical insurance. CAA/Blue Cross sell it online.
