What travelers are saying
- Jackie QLower Peover, UK144 contributionsA fascinating city full of history, great art , passion , and characterful buildings and architecture. There are obviously areas of hardship that locals cope with daily. Salsa dancing with great tuition before the best Mojitos!! Cino Santidos and Jibaro , are just two of many great restaurants to enjoy locally. A colonial Tour, Art Tour and Revolution Tour were full of amazing details with expert knowledge. It is a wonderful experience to enjoy an afternoon in an open top vintage car here in Havana. The Clandestina shop up cycling and produces 99% Cuban designs which are sustainable ,fairer and ethical and is a must to see.Written January 15, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- djaungst66Philadelphia, PA603 contributionsReminiscent of Gaudi's Park Guell in Barcelona, the park is a wonderful visual to feed the senses! Bright color tiled shapes and forms make quite a lively stroll through a portion of a Havana Neighborhood. Take your camera and be sure to walk around the exterior border of park as many fellow artists have inspired additional tiled murals and related artwork.Written January 8, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- OmanRobCanmore, Canada1,565 contributionsThis one has lots of history but you really need a guide to best understand the history and stories from it - we went with Nelson from Isla Tours a subsidiary of strawberry tours and I’d highly recommend him

At night time the Malecon is buzzing with people from Habana sipping rum, talking and having a good time. You meet former boxers, musicians and many other interesting people with everyone having a story to tell.

- OmanRobCanmore, Canada1,565 contributionsBut to get the most value you really need a guide - the bar just off this square with the wooden benches is truly awesome too.
We used Nelson from Strawberry or Isla tours as our guide and would highly recommmend him and Isla tours.
Do go get photos of the cathedral it’s mighty impressive

- ToujoursLaRouteParis, France1,253 contributionsOne on the few refurbished monuments in Havana. Extensive museums about the region, the people, the Spanish colonization. It is quite modern. Be aware that the access is quite tricky, you should either take the small boat (lanchita) and walk for 2 km (almost free, you should pay 2 cuban peso for the boat!) or you should take the tunnel, but the taxi can cost you some 15 eur from the city (like 3000 peso). Also, be aware at the small shop near the castle, the prices that they are proposing are at a hotel level!Written May 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kathy K5 contributionsAn outstanding, deeply thoughtful museum, dedicated to Cuban artists from 1930s onward. We had the advantage of an hour-long tour narrated by Ortlio Rodriguez Alba, Curator of Education. Here we have the opportunity, through visual arts, to see a post-colonial Cuban identity emerging, through diffifult and tumultuous times. Numerous pieces were at one time censored by the government, but are now integral to seeing a strong and passionate Afro-Cuban identity. The modern architecture of the museum itself is not to be missed.Written July 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- OmanRobCanmore, Canada1,565 contributionsCan’t really go inside but it’s a landmark that’s. Visible throughout old Havana and makes for some truly great photographs

We got our driver to drop us off at Fusterland which is worth a visit and then he charged us another 20 bucks to get back to town

Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Paul SandmannBerlin, Germany179 contributionsThe Gran Teatro de la Habana is simply beautiful. Be sure to watch the Ballet here. The whole place breathes the grandezza of Cuban Ballet - with a statue of Cubas Prima Ballerina Alicia Alonso in the hall. As a young writer I was introduced to Alicia Alonso through her family when she was already ninety years old. Still then, you could feel her elegance. Even though partially blind, there was no Cuban ballerina like her during her time. Her partners always needed to be precisely where she anticipated them to be. Just imagine dancing at the highest level like this.
If there is Giselle or the Ballet version of Carmen on stage here, try to get tickets. These were Alicia Alonso’s signature roles. You will love it.
