Experience Cuba and discover for yourself why this enigmatic Caribbean island creates such a compelling narrative. Cuba is an exhilarating feast for the senses! Intriguing architecture, beautiful classic cars dotting the streets, world-famous drinks and cigars, festive entertainment, and warm locals who genuinely love hosting contribute to the amazing atmosphere. While you may not consider a tropical island as a place steeped with Jewish tradition, Cuba was once the hub of Caribbean Jewish life. The history of the Cuban Jews stretches back to 1492. It is believed that Marranos (Spanish Jews who were forcibly converted to Catholicism) accompanied Columbus on his voyage, making Jews some of the first Europeans to set foot on the island. Hear and see the fascinating story of Cuba’s Jews, while soaking in everything this exotic destination has to offer! Cuba’s authentic flair and lively spirit are felt throughout every corner of Havana’s vibrant streets and breathtaking natural sites.
