How to Legally Travel to Cuba in 2012

While independent travel to Cuba is still not legal for Americans, the Grand Circle Foundation is licensed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control to offer “Cuba: A Bridge Between Cultures,” a 12-day People-to-People program designed to foster meaningful cultural exchange between Americans and Cubans.

The program operates in small groups (12-20 participants) and is open to all Americans, although the program is geared to and paced for the 50-plus market. This is a unique opportunity to legally travel to Cuba.

The itinerary includes five nights in Havana, Cuba’s capital city; two nights in Cienfuegos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that’s also known as La Perla del Sud (the Pearl of the South) because of its beautiful harbor area; and three nights in Trinidad, another UNESCO World Heritage Site that recalls life in Cuba’s 19th-century glory days.
