The best of Havana in 4 days Guide: Boots & Bikes
The thing with Cuba is that you have to go with the flow in order to enjoy it- as nothing in Cuba goes the way you'd expect. However, going too much with the flow will not bring you anywhere- or in trouble. Hence, your actions should have a general direction. For me, that's where Tino's guide came into the picture. Following his advice I ended up at the most beautiful places, and in the most surprising situations. I could avoid the tourist traps and develop an idea about what is, for me, the real Cuba. Not all his tips work as described, and neither shouldn't they- it's Cuba. But without exception Tino's tips will guide you to the right place within the labyritnh of Cuban life, which will surpise in all ways imaginable. When I ran in to some trouble during the trip Tino offered great advice and help! Altogether, I would recommend TIno's guide for the following reasons; a) if you know what you want from Cuba, the guide will help you find it b) Cuba can be overwhelming in that there are many hustles going on, the guide and Tino will give you a source on which you can completely rely, and c) it's simple economics: Tino's guide will save you more money from tourist traps than the guide costs. Thanks a lot Tino!

I appreciated the honesty (although can be interpreted differently for a non-Westerner) and the restaurant recommendations for a city without a standard food "scene."

Tino showed Havana Vieja to us in very pleasant way, a bit off the beaten track. The app and funny, and his brief, funny signifigations weer perfect for out first day in Havana. (His book 'Cubaconga'was also a very helpful to understand 'the Cuban way'). Unfaithfully the communicatie part of the app didn't work while we weer there. So we couldnt ask anything anymore...
