A full day northern Cyprus tour from Ayia Napa and Protaras to Salamis, St Barnabas, Varosha, and Famagusta ruins and old town.

“Fabulous value for a full day trip, only criticism is that maybe too much was packed in- would have loved more time at sites to explore at leisure. Would be great split over 2 days! Our guide was fabulous, very friendly and exceptionally knowledgeable- really brought the 'Cyprus question' to life.”

A full day in North Cyprus with an Italian-speaking guide, from Salamis ruins to Famagusta old town walls and Varosha Ghost Town.

“Good morning, I want to make an official complaint regarding this mini bus tour to Famagusta and Varousha (in English). Yesterday we accepted to take this tour to replace the one in Italian that you could not provide to us (you notified us at the last minute). However we are not satisfied at all and this tour is not worthy 60 euros at all. We got too many inconveniences. We missed Salamis archeological site (which we were supposed to receive in the tour in Italian). Then we did not get any explanation and guide in the Saint Nicolas church and in Famagusta old town. In the voucher of this mini…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 8 reviews · 9 hours · from $56

A 9-hour guided day trip to Varosha Ghost Town, Saint Barnabas and Salamis from Larnaca, Ayia Napa or Protaras, with swim time in Famagusta.

“The trip was very well organised and interesting. The guide and driver were excellent. If we had one piece of feedback or request, it would be that maybe an option to have more time exploring Varosha rather than visiting Salamis and St Barnabus church would have been great for us. For example, we had maybe 1 hour to walk as much as we could around Varosha, and there are bikes, electric scooters and even electric buggies that can be rented, quite reasonably, which might allow you to see more of this fascinating place.”
