The guy who changed my money also showed me a place to eat around the corner that was super sketchy but quite good. Cost me something like 1 CUC for the foreigner rate. They paid half that if I remember correctly (it was a year ago that I was there).

Can we take vape, vape juice or cigarettes with us to Cuba? What's else is not allowed beside guns and drugs?

Was just in HAV 2 weeks ago, and was getting 98 CUC for every $100 bill. No hassles, no problems, very easy. HAV is such a layed back, stress free city, no need to press the simple things down there.

If you do go to Cuba, you would save very little by getting Canadian money. The exchange rate you will get at AAA will not be very good. I have no idea if they charge a fee to exchange the Canadian money back to US dollars if you don't spend it all. If you plan to spend more than $1000 in Cuba, then it probably would be worthwhile to get Canadian dollars.
Hey,
I tried to exchange USD to CAD on my last trip thru AAA in Socal.
Do not waste your time doing this as I will explain what takes place.
After going round and around with many offices not having a clue about the exchange, I found one who gave me solid info and was positive they'd be able to do the transaction.
Before heading to this office I checked the Forex (that's the official site for exchange rates for currencies) That day it's was 124 CAD for 100 USD.
Finally, when I got to the person I had talked to before and told her about doing the transaction, I asked if there was a commission for this and she replied that AAA does not get any commission / fees. From here I told her to figure out how many CAD I'd get for my USD.
Well you guessed it, right? No commission but instead of getting 124 CAD (that day's exchange rate) I'd be getting 112 CAD!
So, instead of giving you the market rate for the transaction, you get a 12% hit on your exchange.
Hope this helps out those of you planning to exchange USD to CAD thru AAA.
Again folks, there is no free lunch.
Mondo.
P.S. BTW, It turned out the guy I ended renting the apartment from did exchange USD to CUC in very favorable terms, so in that respect I lucked out big time.
