Royal Caribbean's first cruise to Cuba docks in Havana
U.S. cruise company Royal Caribbean docks its first ever ship in Cuba on March 31, becoming the fourth American cruise operator to sail to the island after the two countries reestablished diplomatic relations in 2015.
(Soundbite, English) Adam Goldstein, CEO of Royal Caribbean
“The ships of our company visit almost 500 ports around the world, but there has been exactly one place where we have been wanting to go for 50 years, and that is Havana, Cuba. This really fills in an opportunity that we have wanted to provide to our guests for decades.”
Although U.S. citizens are still officially banned from tourism in Cuba, they can visit the island through 12 categories which include people-to-people exchanges and cultural trips.
(Soundbite, English) Bill Brown, U.S. Passenger
“I think this is a great thing. Our opportunity to visit Cuba is overdue, and now we are able to travel here freely”
According to the Ministry of Tourism, around 75,000 tourists arrived on cruises last year and more than 110,000 are expected in 2017.
(Soundbite, English) Marcy St. Claire, U.S. Passenger
“It was stunning coming through the harbor and seeing this beautiful city of Havana at sunrise. Very beautiful!”
This year, Cuba saw more than one million visitors in the first three months and intends to reach 4.2 million tourists overall.

A Day in Havana: Cuba Cruise Slideshow - Royal Caribbean
The pictures in this slideshow were taken in May of 2018 on a cruise to Cuba with Majesty of the Seas by Royal Caribbean International. In no particular order, the images take you through the cruise port and Old Havana, showing some of the historic architecture and classic cars around the city. A Day in Havana was the name of the excursion I did with Royal Caribbean. It was part bus tour and part walking tour. At the end of the tour we were allowed to roam freely near the cruise port.

WHAT AMERICANS ARE MISSING IN HAVANA CUBA ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISE + ALCOHOL ON A CRUISE TIPS
This video is about my CUBA cruise. We visited Havana Cuba right before it was banned again and although the re - ban is sad I'm so thankful for the experience. We boarded the Majesty of the seas for a 5 day vacay and our second stop was Cozumel Mexico where we spent the whole day poolside at Mr Sanchos resort... that vlog should come soon.
Comment below if you enjoyed the Cuban vibes, I wanted to bring it all the life and relive these amazing moments again!

Havana Cuba Tour via Cruise (4K)
See where we visited during our 2 day stay in Havana Cuba via a Holland America cruise in June 2018, while taking in the sights and sounds we experienced. As you can see in this vlog, we did our own walking tour, in addition to a horse carriage tour and one via a 1957 Chevrolet Be Air vintage car which didn't even have seat belts!
We started from the Havana cruise terminal Sierra Maestra- for a more in depth look, tips & helpful information such as money exchange, please see our Havana Cruise Port video here:
The places we visited included:
• Plaza de San Francisco (directly opposite of the cruise port)
• Plaza de Armas, the oldest Plaza of Havana where there is a statue of Carlos Manuel de Cespedes and the El Templete Temple where the city was founded in 1519
• Parque Luz Caballero where we took a 2 hour horse carriage tour
On the horse carriage hour we saw:
• Our cruise ship the Holland America Veendam
• The Russian Church called Our Lady of Kazan Orthodox Cathedral
• Parque Aracelo Iglesias
• Iglesia de Paula Catholic Church
• Revolution Plaza
• Almacenes San Jose Artisan's Market
• The Ferry Terminal that takes passengers across the canal
The ride was fine but in retrospect I would have done just a one hour tour instead of 2, as it took a while to get to Revolution Plaza via horse.
Afterwards we tried out some local Cuban food at a restaurant recommended by our Horse Carriage tour guide. For 25 CUC we ate Lobster in Cuban sauce and came with plantains, and a Mojito. The lobster was pretty good- though I believe we got overcharged because a minute after we left we saw the menu of a nearby restaurant selling the same dish for 12 CUC.
We then walked and visited:
• Plaza de la Catedral, where the impressive Catedral de la Virgen Maria is located
• Castillo de la Real Fuerza
• Cuban street art in the form of colorful graffiti and others by local artists
• Iglesia del Santo Angel Custodio church
• Museum of the Revolution
We then took a Vintage Car tour and saw:
• Maximo Gomez monument at Parque del Artires Del 71
• Tunel de la Habana
• The outdoors Military Museum
• Christ of Havana/El Cristo de La Habana
• Castillo De Los Tres Reyes Del Morro
Afterwards we walked and saw:
• Jose Marti statue at Plaza 13 de Marzo
• Victor Hugo house
• Bank of Nova Scotia building
• Hotel Ambos Mundos
• Mercaderes Street
• El Cubo Havana Modern Sewer Pumping Station
It was then back to the cruise ship for the end of day 1.
We then took a look at Havana after dark from our ship and you can see our footage in this video as well.
The next day we did our own walking tour and saw:
• Plaza Vieja (Old Town Square)
• Museum of Pharmacy Habanera
• Teniente Rey Street and a marketplace there, including a merchant selling super-cute puppies
• Teatro Marti Performing Arts Theater
• Saratoga Hotel
• El Capitolo, the former capitol building, where we took a break and did some people/car watching
• Parque de la Fraternidad/Fraternity Park
• Chinatown Gate
• Gran Teatro de La Habana/Great Theatre of Havana
• Havana Central Park where there is another statue of Jose Marti
• Gran Hotel Manzana & Cohiba Atmosphere Mall
• Granma Memorial which is an extension to the Revolution Museum
• Havana Police Headquarters Fort
• Cuba Street
• Empedrado Street
• Casa del Marques de Arcos & the Mural of Aristocrats directly opposite
• Palacio de los Capitanes Generales
We then headed back to the cruise terminal, ending our terrific 2 day visit in Havana! The architecture in Havana was very impressive, and the people were very friendly. Please feel free to comment and if you have any questions we're more than happy to answer!

CUBA VLOG#1: Old Havana Walking Tour, Classic Car Tour & Hotel Room Tour | Ian Sta Maria
If there is any other term better than beautiful, then that is how I would describe Cuba!! Welcome to my first vlog (aka not me sitting just in front of the camera), and welcome to the beautiful city of Havana, Cuba!
Trust me, we went to Cuba with no prior knowledge on how to survive there as tourists, but luckily, the locals were really friendly, the food was amazing and our hotel was located right in the middle of Old Havana! According to the locals, not only are we one of the few Filipinos who have been to Cuba, most of the Filipinos who go there are those who work as a seaman. So we were always mistaken for either Japanese or Chinese - any other form of Asian ethnicity aside from being Filipino. But we had an awesome amazing time in Cuba!
The only problem I think with Cuba is the money part because the tourists are only allowed to use the CUC (Cuban Convertible Peso), and you have to have enough of that to go around Cuba. Cuba can be expensive because 1 CUC is = 1 euro. Don't ever use your dollars to have it changed because they charge an extra 10%.
For more of my Cuba adventures, I will be posting a blog entry on my blog: itsianstamaria.com and I will be sharing EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CUBA there, so you could check that out.
I will be uploading another Cuba vlog a few days from now, so please stay tuned!

Getting Off a Cruise Ship in Havana, Cuba l CRUISE VLOG l Ep. 11
It's finally time for us to get off the #NorwegianSun and explore Havana, Cuba! In this #CruiseVlog, you'll see that we had to meet in the theatre before going ashore since we had a Norwegian Cruise Line Shore Excursion booked. (We did the #NorwegianCruiseLine excursion: Ultimate Highlights of Havana Old and New). For those passengers not booked on a NCL excursion, they had to claim tickets and they were called off the ship that way. At least for the morning, passengers were not able to get off the ship at whatever time they wanted (later in the day they were able to). Once off your cruise ship, you will need to wait in line to go through immigration where they will take your Cuban Visa (they will not give it back to you). From there, you will either proceed to the buses to meet your tour or head right out of the cruise terminal. As always, make sure to watch in HD for the best video quality! Hope you enjoy! :)
