“Wdychane spaliny aut które mega kopciły to było najmniej komfortowe.”
Coach day trip from Paphos into Troodos, with Chrysorrogiatissa, Kykkos, Makarios tomb, and Omodos village wineries, about 8 hours.
“Slightly difficult to understand the guide at times. Trip itself was good. Nice to see the Mountains and the monasteries. Slight issue was the trip tried to force you to eat at a particular restaurant - it was a single restaurant with nothing else close. Would have been better to pick a restaurant in the town where alternatives would have been available. Would have been better to also visit the village of Troodos which I had read was very scenic but overall a good trip.”
From Paphos to Troodos villages and Kykkos Monastery, then Mandria herbs and teas. Breakfast, lunch, and Tzelefos stone bridge.
“Żadnych wrażeń i ocen bo wycieczka odwołana”
UNESCO churches and monasteries from Larnaca, Troodos Byzantine frescoes, small-group guide in English, tickets included, lunch not.
“This was my second experience in the Troodos mountains, which I missed first time in Cyprus. In winter such excursions are not daily. Also in this one we saw a Christmas village at the end, which were the topic of the first one. 5 UNESCO churches out of the 9+1 were to be seen, but one was closed because of the Epiphanie. However, the first church was Saint Ciprian, who was from Cyprus. The time was tight and the excursion was rather 9 1/2 hours, so exactly suitable in winter, even if one of the churches was closed. Some of the churches are outside the villages and there are great…”
Private Troodos monastery day from Paphos with air-conditioned transport, flexible stops, and visits to UNESCO Lampadistes and Kykkos.
“Our itinerary had to be adjusted due to weather, but it still ended up being a perfect day. Fitos taught us a ton about the island's history and culture and we loved the atmosphere in the mountains. I would go out of my way to book with this company again when I return to Cyprus.”
Adult-only 4-hour afternoon from Paphos: Agios Neophytos Monastery Enklistra, then a Kathikas winery tasting with transport and a guide.
“Very informative and friendly guide and nice trip to the monastery and winery, nice to taste 6 of the wines and some great prices to buy the bottles of wines tasted”
Every kind of day out, and the best of each.
