Cosa aspettarsi

A trip to the northern part of Cyprus is a great way to learn about the turbulent history the island. This varied tour takes in a clutch of historical highlights, from Famagusta old town and Salamis archaeological site to one of the oldest shipwrecks in the world. Andreas, one of our expert local guides, says "the Kyrenia shipwreck is one of the best preserved anywhere. It's housed in an impressive castle, and the museum also contains many other unusual exhibits, including some of the oldest olives, grapes, figs and lentils ever found."

To kick off, you'll explore the walled old town of Famagusta with a guide to bring all that history to life. Famagusta is known for its dramatic ensemble of medieval architecture, and was once a glittering gem of the eastern Mediterranean. Afterwards, we'll continue to nearby Salamis, a must-visit for history enthusiasts. Salamis is one of the largest and most significant archaeological sites in Cyprus, and it provides a glimpse into the island's classical past.

The charming harbour town of Kyrenia invites you to linger a little longer. You'll take a guided tour of the castle and visit the shipwreck museum, before enjoying some free time to explore at your own pace. Next up is a visit to the ruins of the Gothic Bellapais Abbey. The setting on a mountainside is as beautiful as the views down to Kyrenia and the Mediterranean. It was in the village of Bellapais that Lawrence Durrell lived and wrote his novel, Bitter Lemons.

    Wieder ein schöner Ausflug, auch dank Andreas, der einfach alles weiß und nicht müde wird, die Kultur und Informationen über „sein“ Zypern zu vermitteln. Es war eine sehr lange und anstrengende Tour, aber man hat ja Urlaub und kann sich danach erholen.

    Es war sehr interessant, aber man konnte den Guide kaum verstehen. Und man hätte gerne mehr Zeit, um in Salamis Amphitheater, Bäder und Hymnasium anzuschauen, man rennt einfach weiter , sodass man nicht alles anschauen kann. In Kyrenia würde ich dem Guide empfehlen, einige Tipps zu geben, was man in der Freizeit ansehen kann, wenn man es nicht weiß, so verpasst man einiges. Insgesamt war es sehr interessant, aber obwohl der Guide viel erzählt hat, war seine Sprache schwer zu verstehen.

Ancient Kourion tour with Paphos Harbour visit

Ancient Kourion tour with Paphos Harbour visit

Cyprus is home to some hugely important ancient Greek and Roman sites. On this tour, you'll take in Aphrodite's Rock, ancient Paphos and the Tombs of the Kings, visit Kourion – and enjoy free time in the Paphos harbour area. Andreas, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The Tombs of the Kings offer us a valuable insight into ancient Mediterranean culture. There are very similar tombs in Alexandria, demonstrating the strong ties between the two cities in ancient times.'After a coffee pit-stop along the way, you'll stop by Kourion archaeological site to see landmarks such as the theatre – dating from the 2nd century BC – and the Agora. En route to Paphos, there's a photo stop at Petra tou Romiou – or Aphrodite's Rock – where, legend has it, the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty emerged from the sea foam. Andreas says, ‘At Kourion, you see the ruined house of Eustolios and find out what life was like here before the city was destroyed by an earthquake in the 4th century.'Next, we'll head to ancient Paphos for a guided visit of the Tombs of the Kings, the House of Dionysos and its well-preserved mosaics. Andreas says, ‘The rock-hewn Tombs of the Kings were not actually intended for royalty, but instead the aristocracy and island governors were laid to rest here. The name reflects the sheer grandeur of the necropolis.' Later, you'll enjoy some free time to shop and wander around Paphos Harbour. Maybe you can stroll along the waterfront or grab a bite to eat at one of the many terrace cafés.

It also includes a traditional Cypriot lunch.

A real taste of what's to come.Heading inland, you'll arrive mid-morning at rustic and laidback Fikardou. All cobblestones and historic houses, time seems to have frozen here. And with free time to explore, you'll find that ancient traditions still hold their way. It's so well-preserved that it's on UNESCO's tentative list of world heritage sites. Next, you'll head to the 12th-century Macharias Monastery, which is located on a remote hillside. Its lavishly decorated interior houses a sacred icon of the Virgin Mary.Then, it's time for a traditional Cypriot lunch, prepared with locally sourced ingredients and served at a family-run restaurant on the way to Lefkara. The tour ends on a high in charming Lefkara, a village famed for its handmade lace and embroidery. ‘Women, young and old, can be seen seated outside their homes and shops making lace,' says Stavroula. ‘For hundreds of years, the men from the village have travelled all over Europe to sell it, even Leonardo da Vinci bought some.'

Caledonia Waterfalls full-day tour with local guide and lunch

Caledonia Waterfalls full-day tour with local guide and lunch

Trade the beach for the cool, shaded vibes of the Troodos Mountains – where nature's about to blow your mind. We're talking a three-kilometre hike, leading you to Caledonia Falls, one of Cyprus's tallest and most beautiful waterfalls, before heading to the village of Platres for a tasty, traditional lunch. Andi, one of our expert local guides, says, "You'll love the hike as much as the destination – it's like stepping into a fairytale, with cute little bridges crisscrossing along the stream all the way to the waterfall." But first, you'll kick things off at Kolossi Fruit Garden. Think juicy fruit and zesty lemonade to get you prepped for the adventure ahead. As you wind through the forest, the bubbling Kryos Potamos stream keeps you company – it's the perfect backdrop for those Insta-gold pics, almost like the Greek Gods are keeping tabs on you. You'll delve deeper along the forest nature tail, among old pines and strawberry trees, until reaching the showstopper – Caldonia Falls. Here, you can dip your toes in the shaded freshwater pool, snap some pics, and soak up the magic. The falls were named by a Scottish expedition in 1878, who were so wowed by how much it reminded them of home, they named it after Caledonia, the Roman name for Scotland. Afterwards, you'll head to Psilo Dendro, in Platres, for a well-deserved lunch. With its own trout farm, the fish here is as fresh as it gets – the perfect way to wrap up your mountain adventure.
