REVIEWS

Cuba was absolutely unforgettable! I traveled with my aunt and we were lucky to be in a small but perfectly coordinated team – just the two of us, our amazing guide Jose, and our great driver Lazaro.
Jose was fantastic – not only did he know everything about Cuba (we really tested him!), but he was incredibly kind, funny, and down-to-earth. Lazaro was our angel behind the wheel – calm, relaxed, and always smiling.
The accommodation was always very nice, we were welcomed warmly and felt at home with our hosts 😉
It was more than we expected – adventure, laughter, experiences we will never forget. Thank you, Jose and Lazaro, you were amazing! ❤️🇨🇺 And especially thank you, Nikola, for planning everything so wonderfully ♥️

A very kind and helpful lady. She advised on everything, arranged last-minute visas, helped with transport (taxi from airport to hotel) and day trips in Cuba. Definitely recommended; if you want to explore Cuba, contact her – she will help and arrange everything.✅🤩🇨🇺

Thanks to Nikola for arranging salsa and rumba dance lessons in Trinidad with teachers Dunia and Jorge, and for a great accommodation tip. My first visit to Cuba met my expectations, and I hope we'll come back in the coming years.
Jiří and Markéta, Prague, May 2025

During our visit to Central America in January 2025, we also visited Cuba. For traveling around Cuba, we turned to Nikola, who kindly helped us arrange the itinerary, including transport and local accommodation. Everything went exactly as planned without any problems. Whenever needed, Nikola was always ready to advise or help. We want to thank Nikola once again and warmly recommend her services.
The Navrátil family, April 2025

The trip perfectly matched its name: for vintage cars, cigars, and rum. Transport by vintage car with a flawless Cuban driver was a real experience. Staying in private homes allowed us to fully experience real life in Cuba. People were very kind and helpful everywhere. Everything was clean and tidy. The main plus of the trip was the guide Nikola Abudová. With her excellent knowledge of Cuba and local life, she raised the trip to the highest level. She helped us with everything from exchanging money to choosing restaurants and arranging drinking water. The guide has excellent management skills, and if any problems arose, we didn't notice them. Once again, Nikola, big thanks for a wonderful holiday.
Líba and Zbyněk, Prague, March 2025

"When planning our vacation, we looked for someone to show us the real Cuba; we found Nikča and definitely made the right choice. Great communication, wonderful service, and always a great mood. Despite the short vacation, we explored Havana, took a trip to the Bay of Pigs, and even visited Trinidad. We are completely satisfied and can only recommend her services."
Lucka and Ondra, Veselí nad Lužnicí, November 2024

"In November 2024, we spent more than two weeks in Cuba. We traveled as a couple, and thanks to Nikola, who carefully prepared our trip (including what to pack :-) ) and stayed in contact with us via WhatsApp, our trip was fun, relaxed, and completely hassle-free. If anything surprised us on our trip, it was only pleasantly so. We are very glad we experienced truly authentic Cuba and warmly recommend Nikola as an organizer, guide, and true expert on local conditions."
Irena and Karel, Prague, November 2024

"For those who don't want to go with a travel agency but don't feel brave enough to go alone, Nikola is the best choice! 😊 My husband and I agreed we wanted a tailor-made itinerary. Communication was always quick, and although we didn't arrange WhatsApp support during our stay in Cuba, Nikola still occasionally messaged us to check if we were okay and how we liked it. She even arranged a salsa lesson remotely 😁 Thanks to her recommendations, we experienced many beautiful places, met great people, enjoyed delicious and cheap restaurants and bars, and had amazing experiences...😊 We definitely want to repeat this in the future!"
Petra and Pavol, Brno, November 2024

"For anyone wanting a completely new, different, and adventurous experience, I highly recommend going to Cuba with Nikola. She prepared a package of great experiences for us that we will cherish for a long time. Nikola, although traveling with children for the first time (my daughters are both 10), was absolutely amazing. We all, including the kids, experienced something incredible. Nikola, thank you very much also on behalf of the girls... It was great 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺"
Hana and Josef, Prague, October 2024

"By chance, I found Nikola's website before my trip to Cuba in June 2024. She was a great guide for me from Prague. The program, information, help, and recommendations were as if she was in Cuba with me. Clearly knowledgeable about local conditions and customs. Helpful, friendly, and always in a good mood. I traveled alone but had a great and knowledgeable companion by my side. Highly recommended... If I ever visit Cuba again, only with her. Nikola, thanks for everything – you made me feel at home in Cuba."
František K., Karlovy Vary, June 2024

"Working with Nikola was great, and I highly recommend her services! We wanted to travel to Cuba alone without a tour company or guide, so we chose a tailor-made itinerary from Nikola with WhatsApp guidance. Niki helped us plan every day according to our wishes, arranged accommodation, airport transfers, and airport pick-up. In each city, we had the opportunity to meet some of her local friends, who helped us with sim cards or showed us around and pointed out interesting places. Throughout our holiday, she was always available on WhatsApp. It was really great to have such a 'friend on the phone' who knows Cuba very well and can help and advise you even remotely. So if you're going to Cuba for the first time and don't speak Spanish, with Nikola you will manage and truly enjoy authentic Cuba!"
Dominika Řeháčková, Prague, April 2024

"We were two traveling in Cuba, looking at different options. Communication with Nikola was perfect; it was clear she knows and understands Cuba well. We agreed on a WhatsApp guide, and Niki was available all day whenever we needed to ask something. At the airport, a driver waited for us, and on the first day, her Cuban colleague picked us up at accommodation and helped with the initial orientation. I recommend Nikola and her services; it was very nice 🙌"
Lenka J., Prague, April 2024

"We want to thank our guide Nikola for a tailor-made itinerary and online WhatsApp assistance during our 3-week trip to Cuba. Although our Spanish was zero-level, she helped us navigate the usual everyday life challenges in many Cuban provinces. Her knowledge of the environment and many contacts helped us enjoy many wonderful days in Viñales, Havana, Playa Girón, Trinidad, Santa Clara, Varadero, and other places in Cuba.
Many thanks and we wish her much success."

"Cuba with Nikola was unforgettable :)"
Andrea Valášková

"Guide Nikola really knows Cuba, it's clear she loves the country and showed us the best of it. Nikola was friendly, helpful, never lost her sense of humor, and the expedition was perfectly organized. Simply amazing, a memory I'll cherish for a long time! :)"
Jana Sedláčková, Mladá Boleslav

"Guide Nikola has rich experience and many contacts in Cuba; our expedition went smoothly thanks to her. She knows Cuba down to the last detail, understands Cubans, and knows how to deal with them. Big thanks to her for showing us this country."
Radka Svobodová, Jihlava

"Nikola is very calm and rarely gets upset by anything or anyone. That's very needed in Cuba. Thanks to her personal contacts, we got a glimpse of Cuban life we wouldn't have seen as regular tourists."
Kamila Lukášová, Kladno

"I will remember the Cuba 2019 expedition with Nikola for a long time. Perfect organization, arranging suitable accommodation thanks to her local knowledge, we were never hungry but always in a good mood."
Eva Vrbová, Prague

"Our guide Nikola was absolutely perfect, very well-spoken, patient, familiar with local customs, people, and history. She arranged everything for us and helped with everything. Before the expedition, she provided many useful tips. And – always smiling!!!"
Irena Kotlíková, Prague

"If you want to experience Cuba differently than lying on a beach chair, I recommend Nikola, who masters that worn Fidel's beauty and can create a relaxed sightseeing holiday at a reasonable price. She is empathetic and can unite a group that will enjoy it. We felt that 14 days, 24/7, she was here for us and always found optimal solutions in unpredictable situations. The completed route, which skipped the eastern part of the island, allowed us to get a fairly complete picture of Cuba. But this doesn't question anyone's right to travel the whole island. Two weeks, which suited us perfectly, are barely enough."
Jirka Špilar, Eastern Bohemia

"It was good to go to Cuba with Nikola because she is like home there, nothing surprises her, she has perfect knowledge of all destinations we visited. She is incredibly dedicated and clearly enjoys it."
Irena Zieglerová, Prague

"Nikola is an expert guide, advises, recommends, and never leaves anyone without help in emergencies :)"
Václav and Iveta Černí, Plzeň

"We will remember our beautiful 20-day trip accompanied by guide Nikola in Cuba for a long time. She very well balanced the choice of important sights with relaxing on beautiful sandy beaches. We especially appreciate her excellent organizational talent, historical knowledge of cities, and local excellent cuisine. She also advised well on souvenir shopping. The private accommodation in various places was also very well chosen."
Tonda and Svatka, Jičín

"Our journey in Cuba was one of the best vacations. We experienced a new culture and environment. Staying with families instead of hotels gave us a great opportunity to get closer to Cuban life. Nikola was an excellent guide and helper throughout the trip. One day we want to repeat the trip and visit more places, and we can't imagine it without Nikola."
Petr and Kamila L., Kladno

"In 2018, we decided to travel independently to Cuba. By the way, it was a unique and great vacation. We had the opportunity to consult our itinerary with Nikola based on a recommendation. Thanks to that, we were well prepared – what to bring and what definitely not to, what to visit, where to stay, and many other useful tips. Looking back at the night arrival, we are grateful that Nikola arranged accommodation for the first night in advance. Thank you, and we definitely recommend Cuba!! An incredible experience!"
Tomáš and Radka K., Prague

"Although we never met Nikola in person, she greatly eased our first trip to Cuba in 2023. She willingly helped with bus ticket bookings, explained Cuban food, recommended interesting places, warned us about dangers, and told us what gifts to bring to Cuba. We traveled on our own for three weeks but were well prepared thanks to Nikola!
Thank you."
Barbora and family, Northern Bohemia

"Cuba is a very specific place for travel. Being there with a guide was the best decision because I would never have seen such beautiful places, met so many great people, and enjoyed this unique island the way you must. Go to Cuba with Nikola and discover this country like no other."
Michal Š. and group, Prague

"Cuba with Nikča was unforgettable! We traveled across much of the island, explored Havana thoroughly, smoked real Cuban cigars in Viñales, danced salsa in Trinidad, and sped around in a pink convertible on New Year's… What more could you wish for! Nikča is a professional, speaks Spanish perfectly, knows local conditions perfectly, and always has a good mood. Thanks for the unique experience."
Radka S., Jihlava

"I don't like sightseeing tours with '10 minutes for photos,' 'bus rides here and there,' or exclusive hotel rooms. I prefer to experience how people live and communicate with them – that's the most valuable thing. I experienced Cuba with stays at locals' homes, vintage car rides, cigar making, many stories – all with Nikola in Cuba. Highly recommended!"
Eva V., Prague

"If you go to Cuba, go only with Nikola! The best adventure in this country prepared by a guide and true Cuba expert, Nikola Abudová, that we've ever had."
Hana and Emanuel Egermaier, Karlovy Vary

"In March 2020, we visited Cuba with Nikola, just before the COVID outbreak. Our small group of four collected many unique experiences over two weeks :)) Right from the moment we squeezed into a taxi made in the mid-20th century with no seat belts but full volume reggaeton, we knew this would be a different kind of 'vacation.' With Nikola, we experienced Cuban countryside, Caribbean beaches, and colorful Havana. We mostly had no fixed itinerary, but Nikola's experience, language skills, contacts, and foresight always brought us where something was happening or simply where it was beautiful. I think anyone wanting to experience authentic Cuba has a unique opportunity with Nikola.
Although we had to leave Cuba early due to the spreading epidemic, Nikola helped us organize a safe return home thanks to her contacts and local knowledge. We plan to return, definitely again with Nikola!"
Jaroslav H. and group, Amsterdam, March 2020

Hello, we want to praise our guide Nikola Abudová for the great job she did. She showed us Cuba perfectly, its history and nature, and organized the trip well, which is not always easy under Cuban conditions. She was kind and helpful.
Naďa Bartošová and Bobina Seidlová, November 22, 2018

"Hello, we want to thank you for a beautiful and interesting holiday in Cuba in November 2018. Especially, we want to thank guide Nikola. Throughout our stay, she was always kind, smiling, and willing to do even more than her duties. We saw all the most interesting places, learned salsa, tasted almost all kinds of excellent Cuban rum. The great plus was the wonderful group of fellow travelers. Thanks again."
The Prchal family, Klatovy, December 5, 2018

"Hello, in November we visited Cuba with guide Nikola. We want to thank Nikola for a beautiful and amazing holiday. We thank Niki for the beautiful experiences, for taking care of us, and showing us Cuba as we wouldn't have discovered by ourselves. It's difficult to accommodate all different personalities, and we think Nikola handled it perfectly. Niki, thank you again for arranging diving for my husband."
Jana and Michal Macháčkovi, November 30, 2018

"Greetings from snowy Šumava! Let me share some impressions from Cuba. And how was Cuba? … Simply amazing. It met all my expectations mainly thanks to our guide Nikola. She fully dedicated herself to us, took care of us, and was well prepared for various situations during our stay. The whole stay was really great – as planned and even more. From the beginning, when I was worried if Nikola would wait for us in Havana airport (we flew from Paris 2.5 hours late) until the last day when the whole group already flew home. Even that last day was unique – we wandered around Havana with Nikola – she was kind and pleasant until the very last moment. After arriving in Prague, my mood was a bit spoiled by the fact that my suitcase stayed in Paris, but on Monday evening it was safely delivered home, so… all's well that ends well. Pleasant ADVENT and many satisfied clients in the new year.
