Family Summer Vacation in Cuba: Top Tips for Planning Your Trip

Looking for a fresh take on a summer getaway? Consider Cuba. Insight Cuba’s Family in Cuba Tour (Aug. 24–31) welcomes families with children ages five through 17 and offers engaging, kid-friendly activities designed to foster cultural curiosity in young travelers.

Starting at $3,395 per person (double occupancy), the package includes many essentials: round-trip charter airfare from Miami to Havana for children (see restrictions below), first-class accommodations, a Cuban guide and an Insight Cuba tour leader, all meals, the required U.S. Department of the Treasury license and Insight Cuba letter of authorization, entrance fees for scheduled activities, all in-country ground transportation and transfers, travel health insurance, emergency medical evacuation coverage, trip cancellation insurance up to $1,000 (with the option to purchase additional coverage), an Insight Cuba guidebook and a 24-hour emergency service line.

Highlights of the itinerary include a horse-drawn carriage ride through Old Havana, a visit to a local farmers’ market and a stop at a papier-mâché studio where children can see artists at work. The tour also visits the scenic eastern province of Pinar del Río, known for its national parks and rolling tobacco fields, and features a traditional Cuban barbecue—opportunities to experience local culture, cuisine and landscapes as a family.

Complimentary airfare applies to children ages five through 17 at the time of travel, but does not cover Cuban visas, administrative charges, baggage fees or other fees assessed by the charter air provider. The offer is limited to one child per paying adult.

The Family in Cuba Tour is designed to balance organized cultural experiences with family-friendly pace and flexibility, making it a strong option for parents who want their children to leave a trip inspired and informed.
