Synopsis

Footprint's Cuba Handbook is the ideal guide to take to this ever more popular Caribbean paradise. Fully revised and loaded, this third edition contains ideas on how to soak up the island ambience, from the romanticism of decadent Havana to the relaxing beaches up the north coast. This guide will appeal to any type of traveler with sections ranging from cultural background information detailing Cuba's social history and profiles of natural wonders not to miss, including tropical rainforests, biosphere reserves, and national parks, to up-to-date details on living with the locals (how to stay in private homes) and knowing your conga from your rumba -- the essential low-down on dancing and nightlife. A special section on cycling covers the hottest form of transportation on the island. Footprint travel guides are synonymous with discovery and adventure -- their purpose is to convey the very essence of a destination and to feel its pulse. Eye-opening, accurate, and reliable information is given in each guide, ensuring that every trip is memorable, enlightening, and informing.
