Cuba is a wonderful country and safe...
As in any city be care in the streets and try not to buy anything other than nick nacs in the street.
They will not stamp your passport.
Try not to go the the popular tourist places they are very expensive and dont represent the real Cuba well.
The national park is wonderful.
Try to go to some of the pueblos or small towns. After a few days there you will start to get the feel for the place and then you will have a better idea of who to trust.
Most people are trying to make a buck off of the tourist, what new.
Dont get caught with a hooker, while the police look the other way prostitution is illegal and after the 3rd time the girl goes to jail.
There are lots of places to eat in private homes that are incredible.
On last thing, in Havana there is a large cathedral. Go, it is one of the few places on earth were you can actually feel the presence of an unseen power. Take it as you will but it is a really uplifting experience..
Good luck..
