About this trip
Cuba is a country steeped in mystery. Connect with the warm Cuban people while enjoying a unique mix of vibrant music, eclectic art, and 1950s cars. Delve into the complexities of Afro Cuban customs and thoughts. Our Journey of Purpose & Discovery to Cuba draws people closer together but does not whitewash the challenges that the Cuban people face. Experience the real Cuba, filled with culture, creativity, art and loving people. Explore the reality of Cuban living standards, which are often difficult and impoverished. Our journey to Cuba will provide you with a host of experiences that will allow you to truly connect with the Cuban people in their local communities going about their every day lives. It will also will afford you an opportunity to look past politics and into the heart and soul of a culture and its reality. Come back with an appreciation for Cuba’s music, arts, and culinary cultures after exploring local museums; taking part in a cooking class, salsa class, and community block party; and visiting the world’s largest ballet school, Hemingway’s residence and much more! Experiencing these elements first-hand will change your understanding of the roles of those involved in creating a positive social structure and give a broader perspective on this nation.
