A lot of driving but beautiful scenery and fascinating places . Tour guide Katarina was great and knowledgeable about Cyprus
We had such a brilliant time, the trip is so worth it! We saw so many amazing places and taste some great wine and food. Our guide, Nefel, and driver were great, too!
We were taken to some ancient, forgotten villages in the mountains, it felt like we were being teleported to a different century! I enjoyed the tour, despite the rain and fog, and the food we sampled. I can only imagine how stunning the valley would be on a clear day. Our guide, Andy, was fabulous! - knowledgeable, a good narrator, conscientious and an overall nice person.
It was a trip with a visit to the monastery and in the handicraft town of Lefkara. The goat farm warm also very interesting.
This tour was the perfect way to end our vacation! We enjoyed all the stops, very unique experiences. Our guide was amazing! Felt like a friend was showing us around Larnaca. Would definitely recommend!!
Very nice tour guide and interstellar experience if you love to explore local culture, food and history
A full day packed with visits to many places. Our guide Katarina was lovely. Very knowledgeable. A small tour with 6 people. Would definitely recommend as an opportunity to see so much of the area in one day with lots of history and culture.
Very good tour. 6 people in mini-van made it very enjoyable. Stops were perfect and vistas amazing. We all loved the special afternoon meal
