Canada Sizzles For Cuba In 2019


The Cuba Tourist Board reports that Canadian visitors to Cuba have surpassed last year’s arrival numbers.

In December, Cuba announced that it had officially welcomed over a million Canadian visitors through the 2019 travel season, which it has now exceeded by 112,144.

Lessner Gomez, director of the Cuba Tourist Board, commented: “2019 was an exciting year for Cuba with the Havana 500 celebrations, and the heightened excitement and energy still continues. We look forward to welcoming even more of our Canadian friends to Cuba in 2020 and to share Cuba’s unique spirit and soul as well as celebrating 61st Anniversary of the Cuban Revolution.”

Cuba continues to be an intriguing, dynamic and culturally rich destination for all travellers. The strong 2019 travel numbers are a result of the opening of brand-new luxury hotels in a number of destinations on the island, the investment in the refurbishment of many properties and the devoted endeavour by Cuba’ tourism industry.

Cuba plans to continue the development and expansion with a lot of exciting announcements to come in 2020.
