Wanderlust1981 Posted May 20, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2018 We were in Havana for only one day and decided to do the 3 hr walking tour and 3 hr drive around the city. I am a very picky person and from the moment I started emailing with Stefano, the general manager at havanacar.com, he put me at ease, which is difficult to do when you’re setting up a financial transaction in a different country. He arranged for us to have a driver and a tour guide for a car tour around the city - they were waiting for us as we got off of our cruise ship. Hugo, our walking tour guide was incredible, highly intelligent and knowledgeable. He gave us a history lesson along with fun trivia. Omar our driver had a great sense of humor and was an excellent driver. We could not have asked for any better treatment. If we are so lucky to be able to travel to Cuba again, and hopefully stay a few days, we would definitely book Havanacar again.

Wanderlust1981 Posted May 23, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted May 23, 2018 We were 3 adults and we had the 3 hr classic convertible tour + the 3 hr Old Havana walking tour and the total cost for the whole tour was 180 Cuc. It was really worth any single cent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polipartenope1977 Posted July 31, 2018 #19 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I am going to book a City tour with them. They asked to send a deposit to confirm the booking while the balance should be paid in cash directly in Cuba. Is it normal to ask for a deposit?

victory2020 Posted July 31, 2018 #21 Share Posted July 31, 2018 We used havanajourneys for similar tour -$100 for 2 or 3 people. Took American $. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also contacted them and other few companies. Havanajourneys asked me 260 cuc for a 3 hours tour in a convertible car plus a 3 hours old havana tour for 3 people with an italian speaking guide was while Havanacar quoted me a total price of 180 Cuc. Considering they also have a great reputation on the socials I think 80 cuc less is quite a lot of money for a similar tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corigarre1972 Posted September 22, 2018 #25 Share Posted September 22, 2018 I am a very picky person and from the moment I started emailing with Havanacar, Stefano, the manager, put me at ease, which is difficult to do when you’re setting up a financial transaction in a different country. He arranged for me to have a driver for a car tour around the city. His name was George and picked me up in his pink & white 1954 Buick. He had a great sense of humor and was an excellent driver. I could not have asked for any better treatment. I would use Havanacar again for another tour in a heartbeat - and I hope that some day I get to! You won’t be disappointed with these guys - just book! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
