Meet Yellow Dog’s Kristen Tripp

Kristen Tripp is Yellow Dog’s Program Director for our Cuba fly fishing program. Kristen’s international travel experience combined with her Spanish language skills and an aptitude for complex trip logistics give her the skills necessary to provide travelers to Cuba with a fantastic experience.

Why Book Cuba Through Yellow Dog?

Pristine fisheries, an amazing history, and a cultural experience unlike anything else in the world combine to make Cuba one of Yellow Dog’s favorite destinations. That said, Cuba is far from easy, and knowing and understanding the ever-changing legalities, realities, and travel logistics of the country are critical to creating a memorable and successful trip. 

How you plan and arrange a trip to Cuba – and who you book with – can be the difference between a smooth, legal, and well-planned adventure versus a frustrating, problematic experience. 

Yellow Dog’s Cuba team is the most knowledgeable and experienced in the industry, and you can be confident that when you book a Cuba package through Yellow Dog, you’re working with the very best.  

Set yourself up for success and experience the magic of Cuba with Yellow Dog. 

  • First off, I want to commend Kristen Tripp for seamlessly linking my two locations together with smooth logistics all the way. Moreover, she got a replacement fly line delivered to me mid-trip. Thank you Kristen, for your outstanding customer support! So, my overall trip experience was everything I hoped for and more. I met other experienced anglers who had booked their own arrangements and ended up sorry for it due to misunderstandings that led to visa problems, delays, and even having to fish at an unintended destination a whole week. After hearing what went wrong for them, I was SO GLAD I booked through Yellow Dog!

  • Having Kristen on my first trip to Cuba made a world of difference. Her mastery of the Spanish language offered a better understanding of the cultural Cuban nuances that made the hosted trip one of my most memorable and easy in an usually challenging place to travel.

  • My trip to JDR on the Avalon IV last week was, in a word, epic! Avalon runs a first class operation and deliver as advertised in every area. The Staff and Guides were very professional, accommodating and knowledgeable. Yellow Dog's, Kristen Tripp has accumulated a wealth of information and commands an indepth understanding of Cuba. She addressed every question I had and offered suggestions on how to improve my itinerary. Because of Kristina, I was fully prepared and equipped and made this trip extremely memorable.

  • Yellow Dog provided excellent support at end of trip when stuck for several days. The quality of your relationships in Cuba made a marked difference in how our difficult circumstances were greatly improved
