There are not enough superlatives to use and represent what we thought of our Cuba trip with Ayelet. The local Cuban guide was superb – very knowledgeable of history, politics of the island and condition of its people. She was patient, always with a smile and understood the Jewish communities well. Our Ayelet tour director from America was also marvelous, as was the excellent bus driver.
We loved visiting the Jewish communities – they were delighted to have us and to know that we have not forgotten them. Our fellow travelers were fantastic, helping and caring about one another. We had so much in common.
Cuba is a beautiful island, filled with people that have suffered a lot, yet still outgoing and friendly. We learned not only about Cuba, but also at the end we learned about ourselves.
Congratulations on a well-run trip – we look forward to traveling with you again.
