Traffic in Cuba

Even if you're not normally a great driver, you need have no worries before embarking on a rental car tour of Cuba. Traffic in Cuba is very different from that in Europe: not even in the big cities are there congested roads, traffic jams or a lack of parking spaces, let alone rush hour.

On the streets of Cuba you share the road with cyclists, pedestrians and even horse and donkey carts, but there is enough space for everyone. In the east, the roads can sometimes be uneven, so a map or navigation app on your cell phone is important, as the roads are less signposted.
