2910car Posted March 21, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2019 We will be in Havana for 2 days in July on the Empress of the Sras. We are taking an 8 hour tour plus a night at Paresian the first day. On the second day we thought it would be fun to just have an old convertible drive us around for an hour or 2. Does anyone know if this would be possible near the port?

The best place to pick them up is on the main street - turn left out of the terminal & walk maybe a block or so & there's a whole bank of cars waiting, just pick the one you want. I think it's 10 - 20 CUCs per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if this would be possible near the port? We were just there on the Empress. Yes, the cars are taxis and they will negotiate a drive. We asked our tour guide what a reasonable price would be to take us from the terminal to the Hotel Nacional for a sunset cocktail. It was easy and he was okay with the short trip, and would have been just as happy if we wanted to spend more time (and money). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's going to be one of our must see places next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to get your response while on the cruise - thank you We actually ended up taking the local bus for less than 1CUC for the two of us! It was a great experience. Ended up finding a car back for 10CUC by walking to the main street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
