Having an opportunity to visit Cuba has long been on my "bucket list" and my experience on this unique cruise fit the bill. Unlike a number of previous cruises taken years ago with young children in tow, this trip was geared primarily for Adults. Although not a new, mega ship, I found the Adonia to be well maintained and staffed by young professionals who were extremely attentive. Food was very good and service outstanding. The limited size made for an ability to "get to know" other travelers and provided opportunity to meet and make new friends. This is not a cruise for one looking to lay by a pool or on a beach all day. Instead, this Cruise afforded opportunity to learn and experience a new culture. Great emphasis was placed on encouraging passengers to make the most of their time ashore at three separate and distinct Cuban Ports. Although the itineraries were pre-set, our guides were extremely knowledgeable and open to questions. The walking and bus tours were geared to see & experience the most with the time you had. Clearly, Cuba is not yet geared for a great influx of tourists but this is part of the allure. In parts of Havana you can easily imagine you've gone back in time. No Star Bucs, McDonalds....no people with cell phones glued to their face.. and great number of well kept 1950s autos rumbling down every street. If you're looking for a "different" type of vacation, I highly recommend this Cruise !
