The Art and Soul of Cuba: A Photographic Journey with David Julian

Join our adventure in Eastern Cuba!

Eastern Cuba, known as “El Oriente,” is where Cuba’s revolutions began, making it rich in heritage and wild by nature. Avid photographers and adventure travelers alike will love this region’s cultural diversity and the warmth of its people. The historical elegance and vibrant colors here captivate even the most seasoned travelers and photographers.

Our travels range from exploring colonial city streets to roaming seaside villages and verdant valleys to discover visual gems in the rhythms of daily Cuban life. We’ll have a variety of authentic cultural exchanges and endless opportunities for photography and experiencing Cuban creativity and ingenuity. Here, we can also escape the more touristy West!

Photographer David Julian has forged ongoing relationships to provide access well beyond what is possible for solo travelers. Our dedicated bilingual guides, lodging hosts and drivers handle our logistics so you can focus on your personal adventures. Dave shares his love for Cuba, and his patient guidance will help you create your own collection of iconic Cuban images.

We’ll explore morning light as towns awaken and golden hour where shadows stretch and textures become enhanced. Dave also leads optional instructive evening photo walks to help you compose stark noir landscapes on a stage of cobblestone streets. He provides shooting ideas on location, and is adept at finding opportunities in any light and weather. We’ll make street portraits, capture casual gestures, people in motion, classic autos and ‘old beaters’ too; street musicians and fishermen, richly-hued mountain views, endemic wildlife and so much more awaits us.

If you’re not focused on camera photography, we can also provide options including Salsa lessons, massage or Cuban cooking to name a few. We reside in comfortable hotels or Cuban Casas, and dine at selected ‘Paladar’ restaurants so guests can safely enjoy local cocktails and authentic organic cuisine by Cuban chefs.

Most who have traveled here return, saying things like: “There is no place like Cuba!” or “Cuba has won my heart.” Join us and see why!
