The Differences

Vacationing in a different country is great because you get to experience things you’ve never seen or done before. You see buildings that are designed in ways you’ve never seen before. You taste food you’ve never eaten. You hear a totally different language. You hear certain music for the first time. You meet new friends. It’s a fantastic adventure. 

You also get to see where and how others live. That is the most awesome part of the experience. Most of us spend our lives in one general area and grow accustomed to our surroundings and what takes place on a daily basis. We then naturally assume that it’s all normal and standard for everyone else. But, we live in a great big world and that’s not the case.

The Beauty of Cuba

Cuba has so much to offer. It’s the largest island in the Caribbean and is full of stunning beaches. Its unique jazz, Latin, and Afro-Cuban melodies constantly fill the air. Brilliant cars from days past travel the roads – where else do you actually see them in use?And, the food, with its distinct flavors and spices – you can’t get it anywhere else.

You’ll notice something especially interesting as you stroll along, admiring the uniquely designed buildings and various colors – there’s ardly any advertisements, posters, or signs marring the windows, walls or buildings. All you see are the beautiful colors and the splendid, pristine architecture. It’s fantastic.

“Que Bolaa”

“Que Bolaa” is how Cuban friends ask one another “what are you doing?” and “how are you going to have fun?” That’s how former United States President Barack Obama greeted the citizens when he came to Cuba. It had been nearly a century since an American president last visited.

His kind gesture of friendship inspired a group of tourist professionals to name their then, recently formed, cuban private travel agency,Que Bolaa Travel.

Cuba’s Nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites

A UNESCO World Heritage Site is a location designated by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as having special cultural or physical significance.

There are currently nineteen UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the Caribbean. Nine, almost half, are in Cuba. 

Cuba’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites are:

1. Trinidad and nearby Valle de los Ingenios: these areas prospered during the 18th and 19th centuries from the sugar trade. Features the Museo Nacional de la Lucha Contra Bandidos, sugar mills, and plantations.

2. Old Havana: packed with stunning baroque architecture and neoclassical monuments, plazas, fortresses, and ancient structures that have withstood centuries.

3. San Pedro de la Roca Castle: constructed atop a two hundred foot high peninsula in Santiago de Cuba Bay four centuries ago in order to guard Santiago from piracy due to struggles between England and England. Two hundred years later, it was transformed into a prison.

4. Parque Nacional Desembarco del Granma: featuring unspoiled coastal cliffs, stunning verandas, and glorious waterfalls. Named after the yacht that transported Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, along with the rest of his supporters, from Mexico to the Cuban shoreline in 1956.

5. The First Coffee Plantation in Southeast Cuba: in the late Eighteenth Century, after the Haitian Slave Revolt, French Immigrants started defecting to Santiago de Cuba. They then set-up coffee plantations and constructed exquisite stone mansions on the land.

6. The Urban Historic Center of Cienfuegos: showcasing the finest examples of Nineteenth Century, Spanish city planning. The streets were designed to be symmetric and straight, with monumental structures on each side, including the former City Hall.

7. Valle de Vinales: full of spectacular scenery and gorgeous limestone rock, which can be climbed and hiked. Also has some of the world’s best tobacco plantations.

8. Parque Nacional Alejandro de Humboldt : UNESCO regards the park as one of the most biologically varied tropical areas on the planet. It is home to indigenous Cuban plants and animals and is one of the world’s best preserved parks.

9. The Historic Center of Camaguey: featuring all kinds of art and architecture built throughout the centuries, ranging form art deco to art nouveau to neoclassical and neocolonial. Also known for its many churches.

Cuban Island Casa Particular

In Cuba, an island casa particular is a private home that rents out rooms to travellers. It’s like a hostel or Airbnb in other countries.The host family provides you with a room and takes care of you.

Many independent travellers arrange their own accommodations and various Cuban private travel agencies use island casa particulars for their tours and excursions. It makes sense. It saves their guests a lot of money and is extremely convenient. 

The rooms are attractive, clean and neat, and there is often an en suite, though you may have to share the bathroom with other tourists. You should bring your own toiletries as such are expensive and considered luxuries in Cuba.

The ability to interact with your hosts and other Cubans are the best parts of staying in an island casa particular. Such rarely happens in resorts or hotels. Your hosts will offer inside advice on what’s fun and interesting, help you find solutions to any possible issues you may encounter, and may share a meal or cigar with you. The Cuban people are truly one of the most friendliest you’ll ever meet.

Casas particulares are also extremely safe. Standards are the same as hostels and B&Bs. Most have locks on the door, some have separate entrances, and many offer security boxes for valuables. Hosts are required to ask for passport identification and signatures in a guest book, which they must present to the Immigration Office. So, safety and security for both sides is important. Trust your host families and feel secure in their homes. Offering rooms for rents is oftentimes a main source of income for them. Stealing from you would ruin their reputations and cost them precious business.
