Highlights include visiting the oldest fruit marketplace for an array of tropical fruits and their uses, watching taqueros roll tobacco leaves into fine cigars, savoring flavorful foods and Cuban coffee, admiring the largest Cuban art collection outside of Cuba; to visiting a 1930s bar and swaying to the rhythms of Salsa music. A cultural immersion!
