What does Havana cost?
Cuba's currency system is complex. Since 2021, there is officially only the Cuban Peso (CUP), but in practice, many tourist facilities also accept USD and EUR. The official exchange rate and the black market rate differ significantly — check the current rate shortly before your trip.
