    MUSEUM TRAVEL ALLIANCE Cuba by Sea Cienfuegos to Havana Aboard Variety Voyager January 24–February 1, 2019 MUSEUM TRAVEL ALLIANCE Dear Members and Friends of the National Building Museum, Please join us next January for a cultural cruise along Cuba’s Caribbean coast. From Cienfuegos to Havana, we will journey aboard a privately chartered yacht, discovering well-preserved colonial architecture and fascinating small museums, visiting talented artists in their studios, and enjoying private concerts and other exclusive events. The Museum Travel Alliance (MTA) provides museums with the opportunity to offer their members and patrons high-end educational travel programming. Trips are available exclusively through MTA members and co-sponsoring non- profit institutions. This voyage is co-sponsored by The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Association of Yale Alumni. Traveling with us on this cultural cruise are a Cuban-American architect and a partner in an award-winning design firm, a curator from The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and a Professor in the Music Department and African American Studies and American Studies at Yale University. In Cienfuegos, view the city’s French-accented buildings on an architectural tour before boarding the sleek Variety Voyager to travel to picturesque Trinidad. Admire the exquisite antiques and furniture displayed in the Romantic Museum and tour the studios of prominent local artists. Continue to Cayo Largo to meet local naturalists, and to remote Isla de la Juventud to see the Panopticon prison (now a museum) that once held Fidel Castro. We will also visit with marine ecologists on María la Gorda, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, before continuing to Havana for our two-day finale.

  • Your Day-By-Day Itinerary
    Your Day-by-Day Itinerary With the long-awaited dawn of a new era of relations between the U.S. and Cuba, Grand Circle Foundation is proud to introduce a new 13-day journey revealing the sweep of this once-forbidden Caribbean island’s scenic landscapes, colonial charm, and cultural diversity. Witness the winding lanes of colonial gem Camaguey, the magic of Spanish- influenced Remedios—and the electricity of Havana, a vibrant city with a revolutionary past and a bright future. And immerse yourself in Cuban culture during stops at schools, homes, farms, and artist workshops— while dining in family-run paladares and casas particulares. Join us on this new People-to-People program and experience the wonders of Cuba on the brink of historic transformation. Day 1 Arrive Miami After arriving in Miami today and transferring to your hotel, meet with members of your group for a Welcome Briefing and what to expect for your charter flight to Camaguey tomorrow (Please note: No meals are included while you are in Miami). D2DHotelInfo Day 2 Camaguey This morning we fly to Camaguey, Cuba. Upon arrival, we’ll be met by our Cuban Trip Leader. Then, we begin a walking tour of Camaguey. Founded as a port town in 1514—and the sixth of Cuba’s original seven villas—within 14 years Camaguey was moved inland. The labyrinthine streets and narrow squares were originally meant to confuse marauding pirates (the notorious privateer Sir Henry Morgan once sacked Camaguey), and during our stay, we’ll view the city’s lovely mix of colonial homes and plazas in its well-preserved histori- cal center, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Ground or air surveys or both were conducted at all identified potential areas and locations previously reported in the literature. We define the current distribution as 10 separate localities in six provinces and the estimated total number of cranes at 526 individuals for the country. Two populations reported in the literature were no longer present and two localities not previously reported were discovered. The actual number of cranes at two localities was not possible to evaluate due to their rarity. Only four areas (Isle of Youth, Matanzas, Ciego de Avila, and Sancti Spiritus) each support more than 70 cranes.
