🤑

The economy in Havana is fair, prices are relatively low compared to Western countries but higher than other destinations in Latin America. Expect to spend more on imported goods, but local products are cheap and offer good value for money.

Shop for souvenirs at artisan markets, avoid luxury hotels and restaurants, and use public transportation to save money.
