Who says that Cuba isn’t a shopping destination? The best cigars and rums in the world, a wide selection of arts and crafts, stylish boutiques, jewellery, musical instruments and competitive prices for tourists are just some of the attractions for shopaholics. Not only in Havana, but in Varadero, Trinidad, Holguín and even at the easternmost tip of the Island: Santiago de Cuba, shoppers will find a whole host of local and truly authentic treasures reflecting the heritage, creativity and passion of the Caribbean.

Being single used to mean being alone, with no partner and, after a certain age, losing the ability and skills to form relationships. Nowadays, both the term and society has evolved and single men and women rule in the relationships market, leading a lifestyle to shake the old conservative values. Today’s singles enjoy their freedom and the world, they manage their finances and spend their time however they like: they study, they look after themselves, they enjoy meeting up with friends and they travel and go partying.

Safety: Cuba is an extremely safe country that warmly welcomes all visitors. The inhabitants of this small Caribbean island are especially hospitable and attentive to tourists. Families with children and women travelling alone can stroll around cities or the countryside freely with confidence. Make sure you keep 25 CUC (Cuban convertible pesos) in cash to pay the exit tax at the airport. Visitors leaving Cuba can take 23 cigars and 1.14 litres of alcohol (two standard 750-ml bottles). Whether this is your first time in Cuba or you’re a frequent visitor, you’ll always discover something new…
