Discover the diverse landscapes, rich history, and cultural treasures of Cyprus on a full-day tour. Visit the traditional Villages of Troodos, the capital Nicosia, Larnaca and Aphrodite’s Rock.
Uncover the diverse landscapes, rich history, and cultural treasures of Cyprus on a comprehensive round trip island sightseeing tour. Visit the charming wine village of Omodhos, the UNESCO-listed church of Panagia Podithou in Galata, and the St. Lazarus Church in Larnaca.
Begin your journey with a stop at Omodhos, a charming wine village in the Troodos Mountains of Cyprus. Despite its small size, Omodhos has many interesting sights. Located within proximity of one another are the cobbled square, old stone-built houses, local wineries, a Medieval wine press, and the monastery of Timios Stavros (Holy Cross), with its old icons and impressive woodcarvings.
Continue to the village of Galata and visit the church of Panagia Podithou, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of four painted churches in the village. The building is single-aisled with a steep-pitched timber roof. A later portico surrounds the three sides of the church, with the roof sheltering both the church and portico.
Next, reach the capital and tour along the Green Line in Nicosia, which is the dividing line between the northern and southern parts of the city. Your guide will provide a historical overview of the Cyprus conflict and the events leading to the division of the island in 1974, explaining the significance of the Green Line and the United Nations Buffer Zone.
Enjoy 2 hours of free time to explore the Old Quarter of Nicosia, particularly Laiki Geitonia, and wander through the charming streets. Look for unique items such as lace, pottery, and local delicacies. Enjoy a leisurely lunch at one of the traditional tavernas or cafes in Laiki Geitonia.
In the afternoon, visit St. Lazarus Church in Larnaca, one of the most important religious sites in Cyprus. It is dedicated to St. Lazarus, who, according to Christian tradition, was raised from the dead by Jesus. The church is an excellent example of Byzantine architecture and features a combination of Byzantine, Gothic, and Frankish elements.
On the way back to Paphos, make a photo stop at the Aphrodite’s Rock, also known as Petra tou Romiou. It is associated with the legendary birthplace of Aphrodite, the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty.
