Medical insurance
It is essential to have comprehensive medical insurance when traveling to Cuba. The quality of medical services can vary and private hospitals can be expensive, especially for tourists. Adequate insurance will ensure that you receive medical care without facing unexpected expenses, and will protect you from unforeseen situations, such as medical evacuations, which can be very costly. Don’t travel without medical insurance: it’s the best way to enjoy your trip with peace of mind.
Currency
There are two currencies in circulation in Cuba: the Cuban peso (CUP)used by locals, and the Cuban convertible peso (CUC)used by tourists. Although ATMs are not always reliable and credit cards are not widely accepted, it is best to carry cash. Exchange your money for CUC at banks or exchange offices, and be aware that if you exchange US dollars, the government charges a 10% commission.
Culture and etiquette
Cubans are very hospitable, so it is important to be respectful of their customs. Appreciate their traditions, such as greeting with a handshake (using the right hand) and dressing modestly, especially in religious or rural places. When visiting a home, bring a small gift and go barefoot when entering. It is also customary to wait for the host to invite you to begin the meal. By respecting these cultural norms, you will enjoy a more enriching and harmonious experience in Cuba.
