There is much talk and excitement about Cuba since the United States has restored diplomatic relations with the small island country. The last time the American Flag flew at the American Embassy in Cuba was 1961, it's been proudly flying again since last August. The President recently visited there, the first sitting American president in 90 years to do so, and The Rolling Stones performed a free concert in Cuba, where their music had once been banned.

The prospect of travelling to this beautiful country is intriguing and possibly overwhelming if you were to go on your own, but imagine taking a group trip to explore Cuba before the hoards of tourists change the island forever. You can with the Ulster County Regional Chamber of Commerce trip 'Cuba-The New Beginning'.
