2024 Edition CubaConga
CubaConga is your secret passport to Cuba! Dive into our fun video to discover what makes this guide so special and why we prefer a little mystery.
Yep, I know… Glad I write better than I talk 🙂
This site and its books have been created to help you make the best of your trip to Cuba. We are not politically correct nor are we Disneyficators…
We tell the truth as we see it.
Cuba is not just ‘our world 50 years ago’. Like every episode of Back to the Future explains, events in the past create a different present. Cuba is just a different timeline but not ‘our past’.
Jane was so satisfied that she even made a video 🙂
Thanks, Jane we are grateful!

Does the e book cover santiago, holguin, trinidad santa clara?
We strongly believe that all problems are solved now
Can I buy a hard copy of this book? I don’t have a kindle.
No you can’t :(. The pdf opens in Any e-reader or can be put on you smartphone. If you really want a hard copy you could download it and as soon as you get te Havana have it printed in the (yes THE) copy shop right in front of the Havana Libre. That is an interesting excusion in itself!!! Not easy to find but very interesting indeed!
Or you can print it yourself of course!
Je suis desolé mais mon francais n’est pas sufficient pour ecrire un livre..
Everything works now… we had some trouble finding the bug and had to sent it manually for a while… now all automated again :-)… we’re having a mojito!
It is not a travelguide like the Lonely Planet, it covers Cuban mentality. So in a way ‘yes’ because you will find Cuban mentality in those places. But if you are looking for a place to eat or sleep… no…
Just bought Cuba Conga – it’s brilliant! Very informative and enlightening, and it’s very funny. Feel like I’ve got an insight into Cuba that you could only get from visiting there many times, or having a very long chat with a local.
Couldn’t recommend this book more, it is definitely worth buying. It helps so much with loads of local info – really helpful to read the chapter on money and avoiding scams – plus it’s a really good and entertaining read.
Highly recommend.
Can’t wait for my trip now!
Thanks!
I’m blushing Annie!!!

Do you think it will be a problem to bring Siracha hotsauce and stuff like that over the border? I saw on this checklist thing that it is ok but am not sure. Any info will help http://cubaauthority.com/cuban-travel-checklist/
No problem at all… and you should if you like spicy
Taste is in short supply in Cuba
So I’ve heard. . Staying at Villa Tortuga or something. Thursdays dinner is fish heads according to trip advisor lolol
I bought this book several weeks ago as I am leading tours to Cuba on a regular basis and wanted inside information. Conga says: “nothing is as it seems in Cuba” That’s a very accurate statement! I have started playing the game and it is fascinating! Conga gets it right on all the levels! Although I am only between level 2 and 3, I am getting better every day. Cuba is delightful, warm, inviting, difficult and a hot mess all at once. You must go to Cuba and you must read this book before you go. Looking forward to Love and Sex. 😉
Bought the book and found it super useful. I’m Cuban but have not been back in 48 years. Going in December and this book let me get hip to how to navigate my homelands with a 2016 perspective. Honest talk about how it really is. Great job
Muchas Gracias Victor!
I have been to Cuba one time before. I understood there was a game on the second day, buy the fourth day I started to play the game.
After reading CubaConga, I really understand the game and I am now much better prepared for my next trip. You will save the cost of the book in the first half day of your visit.
I just ordered your e book and I cannot open the link. It did not go to spam or trash either.
Can you help me out please?
Thanks
Shannon
Sorry…I found the link and tried to open it but it is zipped. How do I get into it? I have downloaded it already

Read the book yesterday. My appetite whetted for a third visit ! Great advice and most helpful. Muchas gracias!
I have purchased your travel guide but when I try to open the download link on my iPad it says that safari cannot download this file. Do you know how I can resolve this?
I have downloaded an e book reader so I don’t think this is the problem.
Thanks in advance,
Julie Jones
