Cuba was on our bucket list, and we wanted to see it before all the changes.

We were prepare with all our paperwork visas and passports. We found out that we needed to check the people to people box AND the on your own box. That way if we wanted to get off the tour we could and explore on our own. Rent a car and see Havana, it is worth it. The people are very friendly and well educated a lot of people can speak English. They practice their English and it quite fun. LOVED CUBA AND WOULD GO BACK.

The BOAT I am so sad for it. They are not keeping it clean and fixed. Rust everywhere, We took this boat when it was Princess and it was one of our best trips. Now this was the worst boat we have every been on. This was our 43 sailing (we are not beginners). Our room was nice and our cabin steward was great. Other fellow passengers did not have the same good experience with their rooms. The food was horrible. I had read reviews and thought those were picky people. That was not the case. On the days we were in port there was no buffet, just a few dishes at the outdoor grill. The girl Tia was wonderful to me and my husband and cooked us hamburger patties each day. We ate in the main dining room one night. I asked for a certain table, our one from the last trip. The head of the dining room said ok, but would not seat us at that table, ok I didn't say anything. We sat at the table and notice there was a hair in the butter. I quietly handed it to the waiter and he said oh, picked it out dropped the hair on the floor and put the butter back on the table. The food was very dry. The menu was very limited. I went to the bar and asked for ice, the second time I asked for ice, the bartender said don't come back here ask for room service. (I was needing big cubes not crushed like up stairs) Room service charges $5.00 service charge. Found that out the hard way.

Havana

This gave you an over view of the historical city and a feel for getting around. Love this tour. The guides were very helpful.
