What to expect

Unlock all the secrets of Cyprus by both land and sea. By road, you'll visit the old town of Famagusta and pass by the ‘ghost town' of Varosha. Then, by sea, there's time to chill out on a relaxing cruise to the Blue Lagoon.

Travelling in an off-road vehicle, your first pit stop is the Famagusta Culture Centre to understand the history of the island. Then, you'll pass through the UN buffer zone to the northern part of the island – pass by Varosha, once a popular beach resort.

Afterwards, you'll head to Famagusta old town, where you can explore the Venetian city walls, its collection of church ruins, or the Gothic cathedral turned mosque. Finally, you'll trade exploration for relaxation with a boat cruise to the Blue Lagoon, where there's lunch on board and plenty of time to swim, snorkel or sunbathe.

    Aivan mahtava kokemus. Opas oli todella hyvä. Opas oli asiantunteva ja huumoria ei puuttunut vaikka vakavasta menetyksestä onkin kyse. Risteilyn tarjonta kruunasi lämpumän päivän virvokkeineen ja hyvään musiikkiin.

    Saimme oppaaksemme aivan uskomattoman kivan tyypin joka oli todella hyvä työssään. Kuljetukset ja aikataulut olivat helppoja muistaa ja kaikki sujui mainiosti. Iso suositus!

    Vores guide i Varosha, George Michael, var fantastisk, han ved en masse om Cyperns historie og kultur og taler rigtig godt engelsk. Vi nød den smukke natur, da vi tog ud med båd, det var ikke overfyldt, men desværre nåede vi ikke at se de berømte skildpadder. Folkene på båden havde snorkeludstyr, men det var lidt slidt, så det er bedre at have sit eget. Redningsveste bør vaskes oftere, mange lugtede forfærdeligt af sved. Men alt i alt var det en interessant oplevelse, og vi nød det.

    Spændende fortælling om Famagusta og en utrolig velinformeret guide. En dejlig bådtur med god mad. Der burde have været drikkevarer tilgængelig under transporten i bilen og bedre plads.

    Guiden var bra! Dock var båtresan, som vi inte ens genomförde bedrövlig. Vi gick på båten, där fanns inga sittplatser. Alldeles för mycket folk! Vi valde att gå av båten innan den avgick pga detta. Vi gick till fots tillbaka till hotellet. Vi gillade utflykten till famagusta, den var lärorik. Båtresan fruktansvärd!

    God guidet tur på engelsk. Guiden fortalte en masse om byen og den historie, så man fik en fornemmelse af, hvad man mødte på sin tur. Super fin bådtur med to svømmestop. Vi oplevede skildpadder på første stop. En dejlig tur der kan anbefales
