You and the family are in for a wholesome morning at CY Herbia Botanical Park. The gardens here are a world away from the hubbub of Ayia Napa, with acres of woodland and gardens, as well as a maze to roam and connect with nature. There's a big focus here on natural products like oils, soaps and teas – all made from plants grown in their nine herb gardens that you'll get to visit.
You'll start with a guided tour of the park's gardens, including a fun scavenger hunt to get the kids running around and exploring. Then, it's on to the distillation room, where you'll get a quick lesson on the power and benefits of herbs and essential oils – remember to breathe in deeply for the full aromatic experience.
There's time to relax in the café with an iced herbal tea and a piece of cake before you unleash your creativity at a soap-making workshop. This one is perfect for the kids, so if they're confident to give this a go by themselves, you can take a moment to browse the lavender shop next door. Once your soapy masterpieces are finished, you'll have some free time to get lost in the maze and take another look around the gardens before heading back to your hotel.
