All you need is a sense of adventure.
This trip gives you a glimpse into Greek Orthodox life. You’ll explore Kykkos monastery, the largest and most lavish religious institution in Cyprus. It’s set high in the hills west of the Troodos Mountains, and was founded about 900 years ago to house the Elousa icon, reputedly painted by St Luke the Evangelist. The icon is so holy, legend has it that anyone who attempts to gaze at it will be instantly blinded. The monastery is renowned for its colonnaded cloisters, pretty courtyards and rainbow-coloured mosaics. Plus, it’s surrounded by peaceful villages that look just like they did centuries ago. A traditional Cypriot lunch is included in this day out.
We’ll take you out for a bite to eat during this evening trip. Before dinner, we’ll stop by the picturesque Ayios Neophytos Monastery, tucked away in the tranquil village of Tala. It’s known for its out-of-this-world Byzantine frescoes, which you’ll find in a cave at the back of the site. There’s one more pit-stop en route to the restaurant – the Kathikas Winery. Here, you’ll sip some of the local plonk as the sun sets over the surrounding vineyards. Finally, it’s on to a pretty tavern in the village centre for an all-you-can-eat feast of traditional Cypriot meze.
Explore the green heart of Cyprus as you drive through the Troodos Mountain range en route to the island’s richest monastery. Founded in the Byzantine age, Kykkos is famed for it’s wealth of treasures; the gold around the main entrance will literally take your breath away. Kykkos’ more recent claim to fame is that it was home to the country’s first president who served as a novice in the monastery. Definitely one for the must see list!

This half-day trip will introduce you to the history of Famagusta. You’ll get the chance to view the abandoned ‘ghost town’ of Varosha, which remains sealed off from the Turkish invasion of 1974. Along the way, your guide will tell you all the facts and tales of the historic port city – once the setting for Shakespeare’s Othello. After a visit to Saint Nicholas Cathedral, you’ll have some free time to wander around the old town, with its Venetian walls, Gothic churches, palm trees and upturned boats. There are plenty of arty shops too, so it’s great for picking up souvenirs. Once you’ve finished exploring, you’ll head to Constantia Beach, where you can take a midday dip overlooking the derelict hotels and homes of Varosha.
