Book that Excursion in Advance for the "Must Do's" - Like that Vintage Convertible Tour in Cuba

GoGirlfriend loves to travel, and we travel with a purpose or destination in mind – often with the aim to satisfy a bucket-list item! When we know a destination has so many “A” options (THE bucket list item) and so many “B” options, we never scrimp on the “A’s”. That excursion or experience is booked well in advance and confirmed as soon as we know the details of the trip are locked and loaded. There may be many chances to still get our “A” choice once we arrive, but as important as it is, we feel it’s best not left to chance.

1958 Pontiac Chieftain in HavanaOn a recent Havana trip with our parents, Dad had always wanted to tour Cuba in a vintage convertible (in this case we booked a 1958 Pontiac Chieftain with Old Car Tours). Upon arriving in Havana, there were vintage cars for rent everywhere that we could have booked. But in reading reviews on the car companies and that we wanted an English speaking guide and an extra hour added to tour the Romeo y Julietta cigar factory, we are very happy we booked in advance with Old Car Tours. We had a spectacular vintage convertible with a really great driver and guide (Carlos and Nacho) - and had a spectacular adventure without the stress of waiting til our arrival in Havana – and saved some money as we compared against the cars available for rent on the spot.

Win, Win, bucket list item checked off!!
