An excellent show. Absolutely stunning costumes, dancers, singers and some feats of strength. It's expensive, but well worth it. We paid 80 CUC for our seats and were in the middle. Found it a bit uncomfortable towards the end as we were sitting at the table side-on, so twisted for a couple of hours. We were only offered sparkling wine... more

We have been very fortunate this year 2009 to have been able to visit the beautiful island of Cuba twice, the first time in February and again in November. During our first visit to Cuba we decided to book an overnight trip to Havana (we were staying at the Sol cayo coco) the overnight trip involved flying from cayo coco... more

We read the reviews and thought we'd do this as the most 'touristy' thing of our 2 week adventure in cuba. BIG mistake, waste of money, awful food, worse drinks and dont get me started on the service... The show was ok, contortionist was the only thing anywhere near a wow for us & being dragged up to dance in... more

One of the best cabaret shows in the world. You have to go there once in your life. This year is it`s 70 anniversary, If you liked the Moulin Rouge or the Lido in Paris you`d like this, with cuban music, if not, better don`t go, go to the museums (a lot in Habana) or the fantastic Columbus cemetery (I... more

Our Tropicana visit/Havana tour was booked through a resort, hence we never had the best seats. I could have gotten past that if it wasn't for the extreme rudeness of each staff member I had to deal with. First was the door guy who looked at my purse and asked if I had a camera. I answered honestly and said... more

Sure it was tacky, loud and expensive but you have to see this icon at least once. My wife and I chose the preferred seating at $100.00 Can. each. We had dinner for an extra $13.00 each which was in a beautiful dining area and my wife got a flower and I got a cigar. The building is modern with... more

My friend and I took in the show at the Club Tropicana in Havana and were amazed at the beauty and talent on the stage. Exquisite costumes, beautiful dances that portray the history of Cuba., and all this under the stars in most amazing outdoor theatre. Definitely the highlight of our trip to Cuba. Jeanette more

I am not someone who normally goes to watch cabaret or these types of performances but decided to give it a go in Havana...and although it was a little pricey.....£45 ...it was worth it. The dinner , well yes a bit bland, but the show was amazing. Good singers, great costumes and dancers, salsa, ballet, flamenco, and amazing gymnastics! It... more

We read all the reviews on this and dediced to take a chance on it, after all an extravaganza...a spectacle like you will never have seen before... The guide books said if if's your thing then it will be amazing. They are v right when they say 'if thisis your thing' and this is definitely not my thing. We felt... more

Amazing
