Comments from our March 2025 Cuba dance holiday in Santiago de Cuba: 'Our tour leader Alex was a diamond. An amazing intelligence and brilliant facilitator. A person to laugh and converse with. How easy he made our adventure. His network is mind blowing and we wouldn't have experienced as much as we did without him. The Festival de La Trova, OMG still blown away by the amount of supreme artistes we heard. Never have I experienced such quality before at a festival.
The nights out were loads of fun. Even when I couldn't replicate the degree of precision with the dance steps as well as I could in lessons, our lovely dance partners were so kind and encouraging. Thanks Kath all your work has given me a new perspective on life, new friends, memories to cherish. Amazing trip.'
