For his part, Silversea’s director for the Americas, Mark Conroy, added that they are pleased to have Cuba in their 2019 and 2020 travel collection.

He said Cuba is the fastest growing destination in the Caribbean, which many luxury cruise passengers are eager to explore, knowing they can enrich their experience with a fresh perspective on the people, traditions and natural wonders of this island.
