Take the Agent Academy to discover the historic heart of Tampa Bay, which lies amongst the brick streets of Ybor City, built in the 1880s by Cuban, Spanish, and Italian immigrants drawn to the booming cigar industry. Today, skilled tabaqueros still roll cigars by hand and visitors can sample the official sandwich of Tampa Bay, an original Cuban Sandwich, invented for Ybor City cigar rollers.
