Cuba recovers position as a destination in French tourist market

The 46th edition of the Salon Mondial du Tourisme Paris 2023 confirmed the trend of a gradual recovery of the French market with respect to Cuba, Havanatour Paris Manager Yeni Garcia said.

In an interview with Prensa Latina, the executive spoke about the results of the event, held from March 16 to 19 at the Porte de Versailles fairgrounds, during which the French public showed interest in resuming trips to Cuba after nearly three years of global impact due to Covid-19 pandemic.

According to the tour operator’s manager, the French market is currently identified mainly by two segments, one interested in circuits and the accompaniment of guides during their stay and the another one that seeks to guarantee flights, accommodation and the car to discover the destination on a daily basis and with freedom.

Nature, culture, heritage and history, and the warm welcome of its people distinguish Cuba as a tourist destination, she said.
