Highlights

Bezoek de kathedraal van St Johannes
Wandel met een gids binnen de 16e-eeuwse Venetiaanse muren van de oude stad
Passeer de Groene Lijn naar het noordelijke deel van Cyprus
Vrije tijd om op je gemak op verkenning te gaan

Dit kun je verwachten

Nicosia is een fascinerende plek om te verkennen: je ziet twee totaal verschillende werelden. Je begint in het zuidelijke deel van Cyprus en passeert vervolgens de 'Groene Lijn' bufferzone om het noordelijke deel van Nicosia te verkennen.

Eerst neem je een kijkje bij de kathedraal van St Johannes, gebouwd in Franco-Byzantijnse stijl. Dan wandel je door de oude straten van Laiki Geitonia binnen de Venetiaanse muren. Een labyrint van kronkelende stegen bezaaid met kerken, pleinen en sierlijke bouwwerken.

Nadat je de Groene Lijn bent gepasseerd, hoor je alles over de geschiedenis en cultuur als je de highlights bekijkt. Om weer terug de moderne tijd in te wandelen en Ledra Street in het zuidelijke deel op je eigen tempo te verkennen.

Tour was as described, well organised, and being a small group when we went, kept well to time. Chris was knowledgeable and efficient. From Limassol, I’d highly recommend. I know that the people from Paphos had a longer travel time, but for us, it wasn’t a challenging day.

I enjoyed the chance to go to Nicosia and the guide was very knowledgeable with lots of interesting facts. Unfortunately she was rather obsessed with excessively out toilet facilities wherever we went! We expected to hear a bit more about the buffer zone and “no man’s land” but this wasn’t covered. Also there was a limit to what you could do on the Turkish side as all the stalls sold counterfeit goods which you’re not allowed to take back over the border.

It was an excellent tour, the guide was very knowledgeable and kept us all together. The lemonade stop was very good and we had plenty of free time after. The temperature was very hot so was quite tiring. Overall very good value for money

Caledonia Waterfalls tour with hike and Cypriot lunch

The lush, cool forest that carpets the Troodos Mountains is an ideal escape near Paphos. A perfect contrast to the beach, you'll journey along a scenic route into the hills, where your destination is the village of Platres. Here, you'll set off on a 3km hike along the stream to the Caledonia Falls, followed by a traditional lunch at Psilo Dendro restaurant. Andri, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘You'll enjoy the journey as much as the destination on this hike, which follows and criss-crosses a stream over a series of little bridges all the way to the waterfall.'We'll get the tour started on a refreshing note with a stop at Kolossi Fruit Garden. Here you'll have the chance to try some fresh lemonade and buy fruit before continuing further into the mountains to the pretty hilltop village of Platres. This is the starting point for the nature trail, which traces the bubbling Kryos Potamos stream through the trees. You'll be glad of sturdy footwear as you head along the scenic trail, which is quite uneven in places with some rocks, roots and rivulets to keep it interesting.It's a forest walk in dappled shade, leading through a variety of gnarly trees including pines and strawberry trees. Once you reach the Caledonia Falls, you'll be able to take a break - and have a paddle if you wish - at the shaded freshwater pool, then continue to the famous Psilo Dendro restaurant with its very own trout farm. Relax over lunch – needless to say, trout is a speciality – and end the day on a high.

Then it's on to the star of the show, the beautiful Kykkos Monastery, perched on top Mount Kykkos.

And you'll also have some free time to wander around the grounds and enjoy the panoramic views of the mountains.We'll then visit Throni Hill and the elaborate tomb of Archbishop Makarios III.

The journey into the Troodos Mountains is a journey to another Cyprus. Rustic stone villages dot tree-clad valleys where traditional ways of life still hold sway. This tour takes you into the spiritual heart of the highlands, the Kykkos Monastery, as well as up to Throni Hill.

Evening drink at Aphrodite's Rock and Cypriot folk dinner

Tasty meze, music and dancing – this trip has all the ingredients for a right old Cypriot night. And if that wasn't enough, it all comes after a drink overlooking Aphrodite's Rock – birthplace of the mythical goddess of love. Alexia, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘At the taverna, you'll get together with the locals and feel their culture and dance. Nothing is better than the 100% authentic cuisine cooked by the women of the village, just like they cook at home.' Join us for a knees-up to remember in one of the area's most popular tavernas.We'll kick off with a short drive towards Petra tou Romiou – as Aphrodite's Rock is known locally. Clink glasses at this mythical sea stack and enjoy the evening light while sipping on a sparkling wine. ‘A celebration in honour of the goddess,' as Alexia says. You'll then head to the village of Kouklia, a short drive inland from the coast, for a Cypriot dinner with a difference.A first sight, it's a typical family-run taverna. You'll get to savour just about every Cypriot dish you could possibly wish for. The emphasis is on pure ingredients and traditional meze – cooked the way they've been for generations – washed down with local wines. But on summer evenings, the family takes over the street, hosting feasts of folkloric music and dancing. Let your hair down and join the locals with some boogying and shaking on the outdoor terrace. As nights out go, it's a showstopper.
