Mariela was fantastic today in Little Havanna ! Booked this as a gift for my husband for his birthday today . The tour exceeded our expectations . First and foremost Mariela was engaging and funny . You can tell she is a vibrant part of this community . She shared her knowledge of the history of Little Havana as well as the culture of of course the food . The food was scrumptious and portion sizes were huge . Do not come to this tour expecting to have a few samples “ this is not Costco “ . We had a beef empanada and coffe , mojito and 1/2 of a Cubano , Hot and crunchy Churros , and a Guava and cheese pastry . Everything was divine . We learned about the history of cigar making and met a cigar roller at a local cigar shop , saw the monument for the Bay of Pigs of invasion , and left with a deeper appreciation for this beautiful culture . As a side note , when she learned it was my husband’s birthday she asked the last stop to sing Happy Birthday and he had a slice of pudding with a candle - above and beyond . Highly recommend this tour and without a doubt Mariela .
