“While other groups are massed together on huge buses that are run on a tight schedule, you ensure your customers have the maximum flexibility. And, of course, going from place to place in classic fifties convertible beats a bus any day of the week…you made it as if we were just coming over to Cuba to visit one of our friends – a friend who seems to know everyone and anyone (at least those who count, and that’s especially true when it comes to getting into the best restaurants in town).”
—the former CEO of a top ten airline
“Hard to find words to describe adequately all of the things we saw, tasted, heard and felt. This was clearly not a vacation but a brand new experience that is likely only available by using your personal approach to our trip. Private Cuba Travel is the right name for your company. While our experience was personalized and private it was not elitist. How you got us the best views, tables or seats in the house is still a mystery. We wanted to experience Cuba and its people and indeed we did.”
—the former CEO of a publicly traded company
“In a country where US government officials, US media, and US businesses have had limited access for decades, I feel Steve Byler is one of the best situated Americans to advise on travel and business in Cuba.”
—the President of a major international design company
“I was interested in exploring the underground economy in Cuba and the state of the Cuban economy generally. Mr. Byler’s knowledge of the culture was intricate. His understanding of the underground aspects of the Cuban economy was especially astute.”
—the former CEO of Reminder Media & American Lifestyle Magazine
“Mr. Byler has a very different business model. He and his Cuban friends gave our small group a wonderful, customized introduction to Cuba that more than satisfied our hopes and expectations. In our opinion Stephen Byler and Private Cuba Travel should be first in line for consideration by any Cuba traveler who prefers an actual private intimate experience with the Cuban people.”
—a retired journalist from a major national newspaper
“We couldn’t have been in better hands with Stephen, and Private Cuba Travel. The trip was wonderful, transformative, and something our children will remember for a lifetime. We were pleased to see that the arts are alive and well in Cuba, and for this Stephen was particularly useful.”
—the Chief Operating Officer of a minor league baseball team
