you have booked your trip to Cuba and you can’t get a flight, you
can cancel without any additional charges.

The Group varies from 5 to 15 people
(our limit per Group is 15 people).
It is also possible to book the holiday individually; we will make
sure that you will join one of the other (international) groups,
like the group from Germany.

great trip.
You will join another group of viaDanza.
How old must you be to join the dance holidays?
From 18 till 99 years old. Older and
younger travellers are welcome to join the Group.
Salsa is for everyone who enjoys it!!
Is it fun to join the course when you can not dance the salsa, or
when you are really experienced?
Yes, everyone can join: beginners and experienced salsa dancers.
Before the course starts there will be an evaluation of the
participants. Every participant will then get a Cuban dance partner
appointed and he or she will teach you at your own level. The goal
is for everyone to learn or to improve their salsa dancing!
What does the dance school look like?
The dance school in Havana is a
professional dance location. The teachers are all experienced,
qualified (this is compulsory in Cuba) dancers.
How do I get to the dance classes?
věaDanza will provide transport if the classes are not close to the
hotel.
What sort of clothes do I wear in Cuba?
During the dance classes we advise you to wear something
comfortable, especially the shoes are very important. Outside the
classes it depends what you are going to do.
Be aware that the nights can be chilly, so we do advise to take a
sweater or cardigan with you.

We do advise you to take enough cash with you because the commission

Cuba does not use the American dollar
as a currency anymore. You can still exchange dollars into Cuban
Dollars (CUC), but the commission is very high (appr. 10%).

the Cuban dollar (CUC). Outside Cuba the CUC is not available.
