Educational Tour Cuba

Tour introduction and overview of activities

                                        




Come to Cuba and experience the wild sensual island forbidden to Americans for the last half century. Imbibe in the exotic tastes, sights, sounds and aromas that have captivated adventurers, pirates and Americans since the discovery of the New World.

Witness Havana’s ancient eclectic architecture. Fool around in pulsating Afrocuban and Latin music venues. Romance Cuba’s stunning other worldly art. Reward your palate with authentic Cuban cuisine, beer and rum, and perhaps toke on the world’s best cigars.

In contrast to the lifeless Soviet satellites of bygone times, Cuba is an explosion of light, color, intellect, music, vitality and verve.

Come meet a people eager to engage with their long lost American cousins. They’ll welcome you into their lives and home they call La Habana. They are so happy America and Cuba are friends again. Come celebrate this historic reunion. We are here to help make it happen.

Imagine a nation still pristine and innocent – where strip malls, billboards, neon lights, McDonald and Starbucks are absent. One-in-ten cars are more than 60 years old. Cuba’s like a time machine with the dial set to the 1950s.

You’ll sample and savor it all during your weekend fling in Havana. Come play around and let your hair down in the Pearl of the Caribbean. You deserve it especially now that every American can come to Cuba legally.

Cuba’s big! Its land mass is 42,426 square miles – about 80 percent the size of Alabama. Cuba is nearly as large as Louisiana, and larger than Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Ohio or Indiana. Altogether it’s bigger than Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont combined.

Havana Educational Tour



With this Cuba education tour (special edition), Authentic Cuba Travel attempts to reveal the authentic Cuba that lies beyond the walls of full packed tourist beach resorts to American educators, k-12 teachers and university professors and staff interested in conducting research on the educational system of the largest island in the Caribbean. 

Traveling to Cuba legally is possible for US educational professionals as long as certain guidelines are met. We can help!

Visiting the headquarters of the renowned children’s theatre group La Colmenita; touring the facilities of the world acclaimed Lizt Alfonso dance company at the Great Theatre of Havana; learning new Cuban rhythms at Elsa’s rooftop apartment in Old Havana; having a private lunch hosted by Cuban ceramist and painter Jose Fuster in his residence in Jaimanitas; visiting community projects at humble neighbourhoods; attending popular ceremonies like the Fire of the Cannon of 9 O’clock; following in the footsteps of famed American author Ernest Hemingway are just some of the educational and cultural highlights of this authentic Cuba tour.

Researching on the current overhauling of Cuba’s education system is a major goal of this tour as well. Why is Cuba making it harder for students to enroll in university studies these days when it was the goal not long ago that all Cubans would have a degree in higher education? Why the new approach to encourage students since young ages to technical and agricultural studies? These are controversial topics that our Cuba education tours will dig deep into. No doubt these are changing times for the most exciting island in the Caribbean. No question this is the time to go. Experience the real Cuba by the hand of our team of USA Cuba travel experts. Do not miss out!
