Insight Cuba has no Spanish language pre-requisite. All groups are led by local, professionally trained Cuban guides who are bilingual and will serve as your translator while you are in Cuba.

Although Spanish (Castilian) is the official language, please understand that Cuban-Spanish contains considerable variation, and even native-Spanish speakers might be lost in translation at times. The majority of Cubans only know Spanish, but in larger cities and tourist areas, English is much more commonly spoken. Although knowledge of Spanish isn’t required, you are encouraged to learn simple words and basic phrases in order to maximize your experience with the Cuban people.
