What I Wish I Knew Before Solo Traveling To Cuba - Travelnoire
Solo traveling to Cuba was by far my most precious solo travel trip to date. As a solo Black woman traveler, I felt the joy of being able to blend in, be invisible and still be cared for.
Whether on cross-country bus rides or in the plazas in Old Havana, Cuba was good to me. Even still, there were certain things that I wish I knew before solo traveling to Cuba.
Havana has a special kind of magic, I am not here to debate that. Undeniably, it cannot be likened to any kind of city I have ever visited, and this is coming from a city girl. However, it definitely isn’t the only precious part of Cuba.
On a whim inspired by my frustration of trying to connect to the Wi-Fi as well as feeling bolder having just turned 24, solo and in my new favorite city, I walked into La Inglaterra Hotel and booked a day trip to Viñales. I had no idea of what to expect of the Cuban countryside, but it didn’t disappoint and made me curious.
