To enter Cuba, you need a valid passport and a tourist card (visa) issued on a separate sheet of paper. We provide this tourist card with all the tickets or packages we sell.
• If you want to stay in any Old Havana hotel, you must make an early reservation, during high season up to 6 months in advance, and in low season up to three months before you plan to arrive. For other locations, two to three months in advance should be sufficient.
• Usually Cuban immigration do not stamp American passports. To avoid any mistakes, prior to handing over your documents, ask the immigration officer not to stamp your passport.
• Cuba is usually very hot. However, in winter, especially January and February, it is recommended that you bring some warmer clothing, for instance a jacket, especially if you are traveling in the western part of the island. Nights can sometimes be cold.
Remember that you may bring back as much ‘informational material’ such as periodicals, books, artwork, music, and musical instruments as you’d like.
