About Fathom Travel to Cuba
On May 1, 2016, Fathom became the first cruise company to sail from the U.S. to Cuba in
more than 50 years. Fathom's round-trip culturally immersive cruise itinerary initially features experiences in the Cuban port
cities of Havana, Cienfuegos, and Santiago de Cuba, providing
travelers the opportunity to enjoy a rich and vibrant culture that until now most U.S. travelers have only seen in photographs.
Designed for rich immersion and ease of travel, the Fathom Cuban itinerary offers passengers a comfortable cabin including all
the amenities of a modern hotel, plus the luxury of having to unpack only once. Every night, Fathom travelers return to the
comforts of the MV Adonia, where they can relax knowing that all the details of getting from location to location in Cuba are handled.
