Highlights

Je hebt veel vrije tijd in het UNESCO-bergdorp Fikardou
In een 12e-eeuws klooster bekijk je een heilig icoon van de Maagd Maria
Op weg naar Lefkara schuif je aan voor een typische Cypriotische lunch in een familierestaurant
Je hebt de tijd aan jezelf in Lefkara, dus je verkent het dorp in je eigen tempo
Je lokale gids weet alles over de plaatsen die je bezoekt

Dit kun je verwachten

Je laat geen middel onbeproefd als je de verborgen hoeken van Cyprus verkent. Op deze exclusieve tour ga je naar afgelegen dorpen in het hoogland, bekijkt indrukwekkende landschappen en bezoekt een vereerd klooster. Met een traditionele Cypriotische lunch erbij. Stavroula, een van onze lokale gidsen op deze tour, zegt: "Fikardou is een uitstekend voorbeeld van het landelijke leven in de bergen, waar de 19e-eeuwse architectuur in volledige harmonie is met de omgeving". Een echt voorproefje van wat je te wachten staat.

Als je landinwaarts trekt, kom je halverwege de ochtend aan in het rustieke en ontspannen Fikardou. Een en al kasseien en historische huizen - de tijd lijkt hier te hebben stilgestaan. Als je op je gemak op verkenning gaat, merk je dat oude tradities nog steeds in ere worden gehouden. Het is zo goed bewaard gebleven dat het aangemeld is als werelderfgoed van UNESCO. Vervolgens ga je naar het 12e-eeuwse Machariasklooster bovenop een afgelegen berg. In het rijkelijk versierde interieur vind je de heilige icoon van de Maagd Maria.

Onderweg naar Lefkara schuif je aan in een familierestaurant voor een traditionele Cypriotische lunch bereid met lokale ingrediënten. En de tour eindigt met een hoogtepunt in het charmante Lefkara, dat beroemd is om zijn handgemaakte kant en borduurwerk. "Vrouwen, jong en oud, zitten voor hun huizen en winkels kant te maken," aldus Stavroula. Al honderden jaren reizen de mannen uit het dorp door heel Europa om het te verkopen, zelfs Leonardo da Vinci kocht er wat van”.

On July 17, we had a fantastic trip to Fikardou, Machairas Monastery, and Lefkara with our teens (16 & 14). Our guide Stavroula was amazing—engaging, clear, and full of passion. Thanks to her, we discovered the real Cyprus beyond Protaras. The lunch was delicious. A big thank you to Stavroula for making it such a memorable day!

Wij vonden de uitstap zeer leuk en zeker de maaltijd bij Maria was top. Iets minder was het bezoek aan het dorpje met de zilver smeden we dachten dat daar nog authentieke smeden waren. Maar voor de rest was alles zeer leerrijk doordat de gids ons veel vertelde over Cyprus

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.

Full-day guided tour of Fikardou, Machairas and Lefkara

You'll leave no stone unturned as you explore Cyprus's hidden corners. This exclusive excursion takes in remote highland villages, dramatic landscapes and a revered monastery. It also includes a traditional Cypriot lunch. Stavroula, one of our local guides on this tour, says, ‘Fikardou village is an excellent example of rural mountain life, where the 19th-century architecture is in complete harmony with the environment.' 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.'

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.
