Everybody’s image of Cuba is different, but one thing everyone does seem to agree on is to travel to this wonderful Caribbean island sooner rather than later before it changes beyond all recognition. This year, 2009, marks the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution and the images of Che Guevara, Castro and Jose Marti are in abundance as you travel throughout the country.

Partly due to Cuba’s isolation, its old towns remain remarkably unspoilt and intact. Havana is a World Heritage Site and great efforts are being made to restore the colonial centre to its former glory. On the Caribbean side of the Island, Trinidad is beautifully preserved and has great character.

Wherever you go in Cuba, you will be accompanied by music. Every town has a casa de la trova where you can enjoy the different styles of Cuban music for the price of a rum or two. The drinks are strong in a country where the Rum is more readily available than the mixer that goes with it!
