CRUISING IN PRE-1959 CONVERTIBLE CLASSIC AMERICAN CAR

Through this unique experience, you become part of a narrative that embraces connection and understanding. Riding in a classic car in Havana is more than a nostalgic journey; it is an opportunity to support and celebrate those Cuban entrepreneurs who lovingly restore vintage automobiles and offer visitors rides as a way to support themselves and their families.
