Our programs and itinerary reflects a tremendously diverse of experience, and are generally developed based on the religious / spiritual interests of the travelers. The license calls for a full-time religious program (8 hrs. a day)

Evenings are generally free for independent exploration. During a typical eight-day trip, some free time during the day is included, as some religious and spiritual experiences are schedule during the evening hours. You will have some time to visit points of interests.

We work closely with the Cuba Council of Churches, the Vedado Jewish synagogue and the Catholic Church in order to effectively distribute the donations that are brought to Cuba by our travelers. And, in turn, we are able to visit community based programs in order to learn more about the spiritual landscape of Cuba.

When you have decided to travel, we will get you started in the process of securing legal travel. An itinerary will be developed and the required paperwork will be processed. Each traveler is required to take donations, get receipts for those donations and file a post-trip report with us.

The administrators of the religious institutions in Cuba prefer that we plan ahead and schedule visits to community projects, hospitals, schools and churches through them. The availability of these projects varies from time to time. Therefore, a new itinerary is developed for each traveler.

We will furnish you with exact contact names, numbers and addresses of those assisting with the Cuban program before departure. We will also furnish a letter giving permission for each traveler to travel under our license, along with a copy of the license.

We take our license and license requirements very seriously and will not allow anyone to travel to Cuba who does not respect the principles of our program or is there simply to carry out touristy activities, which is against the U.S. law.
