The capital of Cuba, just 3 and a half hours flying time from Toronto, opens its doors to visitors from all parts of the world and invites you to its streets and old part of the city, which was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, its two hundred year old university, the mythical Malecón seafront drive and many more sites of interests.
In Havana you become immersed in its fabulous culture and in the vitality of its warm and hospitable people, you will also encounter Old Havana and modern city life. Old Havana is the original heart of the city where nightlife is never ending in the bars, restaurants and clubs with live music from jazz to salsa.
This was once the place for American gangsters, who exported gambling & crime. Today what remains of their legacy are some marvellous hotels where time has stood still since the revolution, and the casinos have been transformed into extraordinary nightclubs.
Exploring the capital city of Cuba is like taking a trip back in time with the strong influence in the Spanish architecture of the buildings & homes. The Latin rhythm is heard out of every corner where you can watch the famous cars of the fifties cruising down the cobblestone streets.
