Join us on our third culinary excursion to Cuba, October 2-7, 2015. Chef-Partner Guillermo Pernot will lead the six-day, five-night trip through Havana and beyond.

Upman Cigar Factory
  • Excursions to the neighborhoods of Cojimar and Miramar
  • A journey by boat through Cuba’s natural historic caves.


“It is always such a pleasure to be able to introduce others to this beautiful country with such a remarkable history, but to be able to do it in a time when the United States and Cuba are continuing to forge a positive, diplomatic relationship is truly an incredible opportunity,” says Chef-Partner Guillermo Pernot. “The culture, heritage and of course, the flavors of Cuba are so unique and unforgettable. It is a destination that everyone should experience.”
