    We love to support local so on this episode of Travel Tip Tuesday Meggan talks about an experience in Cuba with a personal guide and driver and what a difference it can make in the enjoyment of a tour! Hiring local supports the economy and tourism and the people of that country. You get your burning questions answered directly and you don’t have to deal with other people on a tour bus!  So much winning! If you aren’t sure where to start in booking a local, more private tour, talk to your Travel Agent or like we always say, do some research and you won’t regret it!
