Everything. Great group, fantastic leader, lovely country, pleasant people, music and salsa.

Be relaxed about the food shortages, the queuing, the electricity cuts and the sometimes roundabout way people go about things. Enjoy the friendly people, the beautiful countryside, the lovely casas, the good food and the music and dance.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?

Would recommend this tour operator. First class guide, good buses, well organised, great mix of people and visited some lovely towns.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?

Take the lightest of clothing as its very hot and good comfortable walking shoes. If you see something you want to buy - buy it as you might not see it again don't just stay in Havana, see as much as you can; Baracoa, Trinidad is a must see

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Yes, the casa's were great, lovely breakfasts were served, many shopped in local markets for handmade goods.
