Who qualifies for the Exploratory Cuba Educational Tours?
All professors, teachers and educators that are planning a school trip to Cuba for the year 2023 and 2024 with Authentic Cuba Travel®

If you are not planning your school Cuba tour yet, please send us your
Request for Cuba Tour to qualify for
your participation in the Free Cuba Explorer Tours.
Remember, capacity for these Cuba Educational Journeys is limited.
Authentic Cuba Travel® considers “planning a school trip to Cuba” as follows:
- Your school board has already approved your school educational Cuba tour for 2023 and 2024.
- You have been promoting the tour with your students and parents, and you can guarantee a minimum number of participating
students.
- A $300 non-refundable deposit has been paid to us before the end of school year prior to your school trip to Cuba.
The $300 non-refundable deposit is deducted from the final tour payment, and it is used to pre-book return airfare,
hotel accommodation and other services in Cuba for your school Cuba tour in 2022. By pre-booking early we guarantee best
rates and services.
*1 Limited to one educator per school.
*2 Connections to and from Miami, Cancun or Toronto are at the expense of teachers individually,
and not included in the Cuba Familiarization Tours.
We Have the Lowest Prices for Cuba Tours
Authentic Cuba Travel® is able to take advantage of
competitive discounts from our tour service providers in Cuba (Cuban hotels, receptive companies, restaurants, and others) in large part due to our reputation and the considerable experience of our Canadian and Cuban staff within the travel industry of Cuba. We pass those savings right along to the participants in our
Cuba study tours for 2023 and 2024. We offer
Cuba education tours that are hundreds less than they previously were, and hundreds less than our competitors who are offering similar cultural, educational, and nature
Cuba tours.
We Offer the Lowest Airfares for Cuba Education Tours
The reputation, good relations, and experience of
Authentic Cuba Travel® in the
USA Cuba travel industry has enabled us to command extremely competitive discounted rates for groups with Cuban, Canadian, and North American airlines. Thanks to these discounts, we can lower the costs for our
Cuba education tours for 2023 and 2024. Our
Cuba study tours are priced hundreds of dollars less than the previous year, and hundreds less than our competitors who are offering similar
Cuba tours in 2023 and 2024.
The Cuba Travel Experience Features UNESCO World Heritage Sites
Your
Cuba Travel wouldn’t be complete without exploring Cuba’s premier UNESCO World Heritage Sites. All
Cuba tours by
Authentic Cuba Travel® include visits to Cuban sites that are considered to be the most well preserved examples of Spanish historic cores within The Americas in the present day. We visit the Camaguey Historic Center and Old Havana, as well as the Cienfuegos and Trinidad Historic Cores among many others. All of our
Cuba education tours are guided by well-trained university graduates from Cuba and are fully escorted.
The Majority of Revenues from Authentic Cuba Tours Remain In Cuba
Due to direct involvement by the cultural organizations and institutions of Cuba as well as conservations and environmentalist groups, colleges and universities, Cuban personalities, local Cuban tour companies, small communities, as well as other Cuban hosts in operating and designing our
authentic Cuba tours, we are able to offer fully escorted nature, cultural, and education tours of Cuba that are unparalleled in their quality, variety, and the smoothness with which they run. In exchange, the majority of revenues from
Authentic Cuba Travel® stay in Cuba to benefit each and every person and institution that has made it all possible in the first place. We are eternally grateful for everyone who has made our
Cuba tours and programs the absolute best experience for our tour participants!
Cuba Travel Deposits Are Transferable and Never Expire
At
Authentic Cuba Travel®, we understand that
Cuba travel plans can change or require a delay, which is why we have established a fully transferable Lifetime Deposit. With this option, the Cuba traveler can be sure that if they must delay or cancel a
Cuba trip, they can still have the opportunity to take a cultural or educational tour of Cuba the next time.
With a lifetime deposit, any of the participants in our
Cuba tours who have been forced to delay their departure may retain the initial deposit to use at a later date. No additional charges and we don’t ask questions. This policy of Lifetime Deposits can mean that travelers can save the initial deposit (just one per tour per person) indefinitely, whether they decide to take the trip again in 10 years or 10 weeks.
Note, however, that in the case that
Cuba travel cancellation takes place within 60 days or less before the day of departure, travelers will forfeit 50% of the payment for the ground tour, and if it is 30 days or less before the day of departure tour participants will forfeit 100% of the payment for the ground tour. Please do refer to the
Terms and Conditions to be provided with more details.
As we understand that your preferences for travel to Cuba are subject to change with the passing of time, the Lifetime Deposit may be used for any
Cuba escorted tours that we offer in the future, not just for the
Cuba educational tour you originally booked. You may use the Lifetime Deposit in order to find a trip that you want to take as you plan for your next educational and cultural tour with us.
With this policy, the Lifetime Deposit is transferable as well. You may transfer the deposit to any other traveler for no extra charge!
This applies to the value of the “deposit” payment portion only. Any and all additional payment or final payments are subject to our
Terms and Conditions. This is not redeemable in addition to any other discount, offer, or promotion.
Cuba Tours Operated On Responsible and Sustainable Principles
When an industry is committed to sustainable tourism, it is committed to practices that make a small impact on local culture and the environment as well as helping generate employment for the people of the local area. A dedication to ensuring that development is ultimately a positive for the local people, the tourists, and the tour companies is sustainable tourism.
At
Authentic Cuba Travel®, our itineraries and
Cuba tours are designed to stay within the Cape Town Declaration on Responsible Tourism guidelines.
All of our
Cuba education tours meet these considerations:
Minimize negative social, environmental, and economic impacts
Create greater benefits economically for the local people as well as enhance the host communities, offering improvements in working conditions as well as access to industry
Local people are involved in making the decisions that have an effect on their life chances and their lives
Positive contributions are made to conserving the cultural and natural heritage as well as maintaining the diversity of Cuba
Tourists are provided with a more enjoyable experience through meaningful connections to local people along with a better understanding of environmental, social, and local cultural issues
Mutual respect is engendered between hosts and tourists while building local confidence and pride
Sustainable tourism means that participants in our
escorted Cuba tours have the chance to enjoy a holiday while also respecting the culture, the people, and environment in the areas that they tour. Additionally, it means that the people have a say in the
Cuba travel planning process and will get the majority of the funds generated from our tours to Cuba.
