UZiqu-zintathu eCuba - ugwayi, ikhofi, ne-rum. Cuba (c) Linda Garrison Isendlalelo kanye nesimiso samanje se-US Izakhamuzi Zokuhambela eCuba
Kusukela ngo-1960, uhulumeni wase-US uye wavumela izakhamizi ezimbalwa zase-US ukuthi zihambele eCuba ngenxa ye-embargo kahulumeni eyabekwa ngemuva kokuba umbuso wamaKhomanisi kaFidel Castro uthathe amandla. Ukuhamba kwakunqunyelwe izintatheli, izikhulu zikahulumeni, izifundiswa, nalabo abanamalungu omndeni abahlala eCuba.
Ngo-2011, imingcele kahulumeni yaguqulwa ukuvumela bonke abakwaMelika ukuba bahambe eCuba uma nje behlanganyela ekuvakatheni Abantu-kuyabantu okwakungenxa yezifundo zemfundo. Lawa maqembu okuvakasha athola amalayisense nama-visa kulabo basezizwe base-US ababambe iqhaza ezinhlelweni zabo.
Ngo-2016, imingcele yabuye yaguqulwa futhi ukuvumela abaseMelika ukuba bahambe eCuba ngokuzimela uma nje behlangana nesinye sezizathu ezigunyaziwe , enye yazo "imfundo". Nakuba abantu baseMelika bengadingeki ukuba babambe iqhaza ekuvakasheni "Abantu Kuya Kubantu," kudingeka "balondoloze amarekhodi ahambisana nokuthengiswa okuhambayo okuvunyelwe, kufaka phakathi amarekhodi abonisa isimiso sesikhathi esigcwele semisebenzi egunyaziwe," kusho uMnyango wezeMali waseMelika. Ukuvakasha akuyona enye yemisebenzi egunyaziwe, ngakho-ke ungahleli (okungenani okwamanje) ukubhuka ihhotela eCuba bese uchitha isonto ogwini.
Imikhumbi yama Cruise nabantu abangewona baseMelika beye beya eCuba iminyaka eminingi, futhi lapho imingcele yancipha ngo-2011, imigqa yokuhamba njengeCelestyal Cruises yanezela uhlelo oluhambisanayo lwabantu "to-People" (P2P) kwi- cruise yabo yaseCuba . Uhlelo lwabo lokuqala U-2012 waba nomndeni owodwa waseMelika, lowo engangena kuwo ku- Celestal Crystal ngo-Ephreli 2016 wawunamadoda angaba ngu-400 aseMelika.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, umkhumbi wawunokuzijabulisa kweCuban kumidlalo yaseshashalazini kanye nezitsha zaseCuban kwimenyu.
Eminye imigqa yokuhamba imifula manje igxuma kwi-Cuba cruise bandwagon. I-Fathom Cruises, enye yemikhiqizo yeCarnival Corporation, yaqala ukuhamba ngesikebhe semfundo / eyokuhlangenwe nakho ngoMeyi 2016, futhi imigqa eminingi yokuhamba ngemigwaqo ithemba ukuthola imvume kahulumeni yokuhamba ngesizini esibusika sika 2016-2017.

Kusukela ngiphindela ekhaya ngivela eCuba, abangane bami abaningi baye babuza, "Kubayini Cuba"? Okumangalisa kakhulu kimi kwakuyisakhiwononga sezokuvakasha esivele sisekhona. Nakuba amaMelika engakavakashele eCuba iminyaka engama-50 eyedlule, lonke izwe linalo.

Noma kunjalo, unikezwe inani labantu baseMelika abafuna ukuvakashela, amakamelo ehhotela angase abe nge-premium, okwenza ukuthatha indawo yokuhamba ngesikebhe. Ngaphezu kwalokho, njengamahhotela, iningi lazo zokudla zikhona zikahulumeni, ngakho izinguquko zingase ziphuze. Sasidla isidlo sasemini endaweni yokudlela edolobheni laseHaana, kodwa amandla aphuma izikhathi ezingu-12 (imizuzu embalwa nje) ngenkathi sisekhona. Ngenhlanhla, le ndawo yokudlela yayisebenzisa igesi lokupheka, kodwa akekho omunye ngaphandle kwethu owacabanga ukuthi unamandla omnyama okwakungavamile. Sasidla isidlo sasemini endaweni ye-paladar, okuyinto yokudlela yomndeni eyimfihlo eCuba. I-La Casa Restaurant ibilokhu ibhizinisi kusukela ngo-1995 futhi itholakala emndenini emndenini waseHaana. Ukudla kwaseCuban kwakumnandi, futhi intengo yayinengqondo kakhulu kunezindawo zikahulumeni.
