Hola Friend,


Como estas? How have you been?


Not sure if you have seen the great news (it is for Australians) that the tourist card is now valid for 90 Days. For us it's been only 30 days in the past, so I am rather excited!


Meantime you may be wondering about today's headline...


One of our partners has a great trip - a private sail from Split to Dubrovnik on Supreme DELUXE category ship in a cabin with private facilities, A/C & TV.  Look at that! Doesn't it look amazing?


She only has 6 spots left!

Sounds fabulous if you ask me!


The trip starts on 1 July 2022!


But you gotta be quick, as she only has a few spots left...


It's AUD 2,850 per person, airfares not included.

In case you are wondering, we do not get a commission for sharing this trip with you.


But since it's Christmas and you maybe looking for something new and different to try next year, and many of you asked if we do other part of the world than Cuba, we thought we'd share it with you.


Please feel free to reach out to Georgina directly,

She is originally from Croatia herself, so her heart is there. She will be accompanying you on this tour also, so you know you'd get her insider's knowledge. She was at home earlier this year to visit friends and family and is a great tour leader.

We'd also like to take this opportunity to wish you and your families a fabulous Christmas and a prosperous New Year!


See you in Cuba in 2023!
