In the USA, you need to be over 16 in most states. In Cuba, you're guess is as good as mine. It's illegal for US Citizens to go to Cuba without permission from the State Department.

It varies from place to place but 16, as with driving, is probably old enough in most places.

i think you have to have a driver's license, or else ride with an adult.
