Covid Protocols for Cuba Tour
The U.S. CDC will no longer require air passengers traveling from a foreign country to the United States to show a negative COVID-19 viral test or documentation of recovery from COVID-19 before they board their flight.
However, Cuba Covid-19 levels are moderate and therefore it is best to make sure you are up-to-date with all your shots and boosters, and you test negative for Covid-19 at least 3 days prior to departure. Tourists testing positive for COVID-19 while in Cuba might be issued a sanitary quarantine order.
