It was a dream.  Cuba is unique, beautiful, decaying, vibrant, Nostalgic and optimistic.  The Cuban people understand the importance of hospitality for their economy but they come across as genuine. Rhonda Slater knows Cuba and the tour she arranged for us was superb: fine hotels and restaurants, off the beaten path surprises, lectures and cultural events.  She introduced us to Continue Reading

I just returned from a fabulous trip to Cuba with Rhonda as our guide/host. There were just four of us (including Rhonda) and we stayed in a Casa rather than a hotel. Pros and cons to that; no busy street noise, just a loud rooster--now our amigo. But we got a glimpse into life in Havana. Rhonda always let us Continue Reading

"Spring into Cuba" March 2016 ~ We found Exclusive Expeditions through a Google search, and just had a gut feeling after speaking to Randi and Rhonda that this would be the trip for us; a well-rounded, well organized itinerary that would include Jewish content along with general touring. It turned out to be so much more, actually a life-changing experience! Randi's Continue Reading
