About the guru Heikel

I am an University student into IT. On my free time I love to walk around and meet people. That's why I am doing this free walking tour and at the same time I earn some money.

About the tour

Book this tour at least 2 days before the date you want. Many tours aim to show the old part of Havana as the most historic, and forget the attraction of other parts of the city, such as Vedado. Place where is the busiest street in the capital, the Coppelia ice cream shop, where we will have a stop to take ice cream and hotels like the Hotel Nacional. This tour is for those who want to enter the "New Havana".

Heikel no apareció ni aviso de que no iba a poder venir. Horroroso.

Response from Heikel:

Horroroso tu estilo y comentario Leticia que reservaste este tour con menos de 12 horas de antelación, conociendo la situacion que existe en Cuba con los precios y la calidad de internet. En la descripción de este tour dice perfectamente que debes reservar con un tiempo mínimo, si no respetaste eso yo no puedo hacer nada. Saludos!!!

Heikel couldn't show up but asked Daniel to do it instead. We had a great time, it's a very interesting tour. Daniel was very kind and answer all our questions.

This was definitely the most amazing tour I did in Havana, we walked around the New Havana and saw a lot of amazing buildings and businesses and so on. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Havana.

Heikel had a scheduling conflict and requested a one hour later start. We agreed. We left our cruise ship early and arrived at the meeting spot ahead of time, but no Heikel. We waited around a while and then gave up. Upon our return to the ship, we found an email from him canceling the tour due to rain. Well, we were walking around Havana all day and it rained for only a short while. In my opinion, Heikel is not a reliable host. He did offer to reschedule, but that was not possible for us. Very disappointing.

Response from Heikel:

I am very sorry you waited for me that long. We rescheduled our tour for 11:30 but I was waiting a bus to go to the meeting place and it was raining. I could not get the bus and just at 11:15 I decided not going because it was still raining and it takes more than 40 minutes for me to get there. Sorry but transportation in Cuba is not easy and I tried as hard as I could. Thanks for your review!
