Cuba at your own pace
Posted by Ceri on Friday, 10 September 2010
Cuba is a charismatic tropical Caribbean island on the brink of a new era. It’s a brilliant cocktail of colonial cities, sultry salsa music, big cigars, vintage Cadillacs and ivory beaches. The country has old-world charm - the result of Castro’s communist regime mixed with decades of isolation, keeping neon lights and fast-food chains far away from Cuban borders. With the arrival of Castro’s brother Raul, times are changing… and so is Cuba. More than ever, this is the time to visit Cuba, before the traditional charm of this country is unavoidably lost in a surge of modern-day changes.
