Maduro, handpicked by Chavez as his political heir, has been at the center of the oil-rich nation's response since its fiery president suffered complications from cancer surgery, forcing the government to delay the re-elected leader's inauguration on Thursday.
The Venezuelan VP was received yesterday in Havana by Cuban foreign minister Bruno Rodriguez, Cuban state media reported. But it was not immediately clear when he would to able to see Chavez.
Maduro, 50, has delivered somber updates about the leader's delicate health, which has plunged Venezuela into uncertainty in the past month, with the opposition calling for a medical board to assess Chavez's condition -- a demand rejected by the Supreme Court.
Chavez has been out of public sight since undergoing surgery on December 11, the fourth operation in a year and a half.
"I will continue this work of visiting the family, meeting with the medical team, visiting our comandante Chavez and presenting him with the good news of a nation at work," Maduro said when visiting the headquarters of oil giant PDVSA.
A day after he led a huge rally in Caracas that replaced the 58-year-old president's swearing-in ceremony, Maduro said he would tell Chavez about the visit of 20 Latin American delegations, including heads of state, at the event.
Two Chavez allies, Argentine President Cristina Kirchner and Peruvian President Ollanta Humala, also arrived in Havana yesterday.
"We all hope for a quick recovery," Humala said. Kirchner, who brought a Bible for Chavez, told reporters that she would have lunch with Cuban President Raul Castro and his retired brother Fidel, and that she would also meet with Chavez's family.
In power for 14 years and re-elected in October, Chavez was supposed to be sworn in to a new six year term on Thursday, but the government indefinitely postponed the event after the president suffered a severe lung infection.
Despite the charismatic leader's absence, thousands of fervent supporters swore "absolute loyalty" to Chavez during a rally that day.
Several regional leaders turned up, including fellow leftist presidents Evo Morales of Bolivia and Jose Mujica of Uruguay.
