Common tourist traps

  1. Fake taxi drivers and tour operators

    How it works: A few criminals pose as tour operators or taxi drivers at the airport and around Old Havana.

    How to avoid it: Travel with your tour operator, or use a registered yellow taxi from the airport.

  2. International cards don't work

    How it works: International cards such as Visa and Mastercard are no longer accepted, and you can't withdraw cash at ATMs with them.

    How to avoid it: Bring enough cash, or use a Cuban prepaid card (CLASICA).
