Planning Your Holidays to Cuba.

By Jose Garces

At this phase you might have already determined that Cuba is the country that you want to visit for your next vacation but perhaps need some assistance on the booking side of it . I know this could sound a bit too trivial but you should know few important things in order to get the best deal for your holidays in Cuba.

The fact that Cuba is such a delightful and ever more popular destination, presents travel agents with a real problem . Cuba is definitely not a last minute destination , in particular if you are travelling in the high season.

The peak or high season in Cuba falls within the months of July and August, the Easter period, Christmas and New year's eve . November, December, January, February and March are awfully well-liked months particularly for travellers from Europe in search of a warm country to avoid few days of miserable weather.

Quite regularly I get customers requesting me to arrange a package holiday for them in these particular periods, and every so often the phone call comes to close to the departure date . It is extremely frustrating for me and ultimately the client. For one pure reason, I just can not recommend holiday worth it because all the popular areas and best hotels are completely booked, and then I am left with the only honest answer I can give. "I am truthfully sorry but at this point there is nothing available that I feel comfortable recommending "

If you intend to book something straightforward and simple like a week or two in a beach resort there are more chances of getting a good hotel available . The difficulty presents it self when clients are interested in combining areas like Havana, Viales Valley, Las Terrazas, Cienfuegos, Trinidad and or Santiago de Cuba. Areas like these with the exception of Havana are very difficult when it comes to hotel availabilities.

If you are looking to arrange a tailor made holiday to Cuba in a popular season my suggestion to you is to start with the arrangements at least 4 months prior to departure in order to secure not only the rooms in your preferred hotels but also the best tariffs from the carriers . If you however did not find this piece of writing before and are planning a last minute tailor made holiday , chances are something will be found for you but certainly the odds of getting the best hotels are not bright

In the case of low season months is trouble-free to find availabilities and good deals in terms of fares and it really does not matter much when you call. We are very confident to be able to match you exact holiday requirements.

I truly hope you find some good tips in this article and sincerely wish you a fantastic time in Cuba.
