Yes. It really has a different air from old Havana because I felt like I was in any other European city in Italy or Spain. The square is beautiful, clean with works of art on display. There is also t…Full review by doinac736

This one has lots of history but you really need a guide to best understand the history and stories from it - we went with Nelson from Isla Tours a subsidiary of strawberry tours and I’d highly recom…Full review by OmanRob
Is the cruise port walkable to the old town of Havana

Yes, the port is right alongside the St Francisco de Asis Square, and the Plaza Vieja is an easy stroll away through pedestrianised streets. Very easy. However if you want to see the Revolution Square that is in the new town which is some distance away. There is a double decker red bus which will take you around the whole city for about 2 hours so that you can get an idea if what you would like to see, and then if it is at a distance you can take a taxi. Taxis cost a bit more in the port area, but can be much cheaper if hailed away from the port and the main highlights.
We are going on a cruise. Can we get a tour guide to show us around the island instead of buying a pricey excursion? How much would it cost per person?
A:
Most of the people we spoke to just got one of the old cars to drive around and show them the sights. It sounded as though they got much better value for money than us . We …
Most of the people we spoke to just got one of the old cars to drive around and show them the sights. It sounded as though they got much better value for money than us . We booked a guided tour . Just make sure your taxi driver can speak English and is willing to explain what you're looking at. Haggle over the price.
We are taking an Azamara cruise in November to Cuba. All of the tours from the ship state you must be able to climb 43 stairs in Havana to get to the bus for the tour. Is this correct. We are looking into private tours in Havana.

Sorry this is late for your cruise, we took Azamara in January, 2019. There are that many steps (going up) coming through customs to the ship down going to shore. There is an elevator, it was out of order on one of the two days we were there. We took a cruise tour the first day and on our own the second day with a wonderful Chevy convertible ride. Had a great time! You do pay more for the convertibles than the sedans, well worth it to me. Cabs are cheaper than either. In the customs area you can also exchange your $$ for CUCs, 12.5% discount when we were there. Totally enjoyed all the people we met.
