Here’s What a Support for the Cuban People Tour Looks Like

A Journey of Support
In June, the Trump administration announced a new crackdown on travel to Cuba for Americans. As part of the latest round of changes, the administration eliminated the popular "people to people" travel category, which was the most common way Americans visited the island.
The administration also put a stop to all cruises visiting the country, which had been a boon for the small island nation, bringing in some 800,000 travelers last year who had plenty of money to spend. Even with these changes, it would be a significant mistake to think Americans can no longer visit Cuba.
It is still entirely possible to visit and furthermore it's quite easy. The remaining "support for the Cuban people" travel category, which is not all that different than a "people to people" visit, allows for exploring this vibrant island nation in rich and meaningful ways. Here's a snapshot of what I saw and did during a recent support for the Cuban people trip with Cuba Educational Travel.
