Canada Leads Cuba's Tourist-Sending Markets Source: dtcuba.com Havana.- Canada has been Cuba's major tourist-sending market in 2010, with 780,000 travelers from January to October, accounting for a 2-percent increase. According to experts, one of Cuba's attractions for Canadian travelers is that the two countries are at a three-hour flight from each other. Other factors that have led to this growing trend in tourist arrivals from Canada are the excellent work by tour operators that commercialize Cuba's hotels and the low temperatures in that North American country at this time of the year. Statistics show that more than 914,000 Canadian tourists visited Cuba last year. |
