Our organization together with all U.S. Cuba tour operators rejects the Trump Cuba travel warning as purely vindictive and politically motivated with the objective of hurting the Cuban people and discouraging interaction between regular Americans and Cubans. The Trump Cuba travel warning is not based on concern for the health and well-being of American travelers. Cuba remains among the safest nations in the world for visitors. The entire U.S. industry encourages Americans to continue to visit Cuba.
