Description
Discover the enchanting beauty of Cyprus on a full-day adventure, journeying from coast to mountains and exploring the island’s rich natural landscapes and cultural heritage. With convenient pick-up and drop-off from your hotel, all you need are comfortable shoes, a swimsuit, and water to enjoy this experience. Begin at one of Cyprus’s serene water dams, where morning light shimmers on still waters. A peaceful start, it’s ideal for your first photos, capturing wide horizons and calm scenery. Next, we drive through Troodos Forest, the island’s largest, blanketed in pine and cedar. This green expanse fills the air with the fresh scent of nature, offering a glimpse of Cyprus’s untouched wilderness. We stop at a Venetian bridge, a historic relic nestled within the forest. Built in stone, it stands as a charming reminder of Cyprus’s Venetian past, and you’ll have time to explore and capture its beauty. Continuing to Kykkos Monastery, one of Cyprus’s most famous, founded in the 11th century. It houses a revered icon of the Virgin Mary and features intricate mosaics and relics in a serene, timeless setting. We’ll then ascend to Mount Olympos, the island’s highest peak. If the weather is clear, we pause briefly for photos at 1,952 meters, overlooking the majestic Troodos Mountains. The next stop is a secluded waterfall in Troodos Forest. Relax by the water, listening to the soft cascade in this hidden oasis, a peaceful retreat from busier parts of the island. In the charming village of Omodos, with its cobblestone streets and traditional architecture, you’ll visit the Monastery of the Holy Cross. Explore artisan shops and enjoy the village’s quaint historic feel. For wine lovers, an optional winery stop offers a taste of Cyprus’s winemaking tradition, where you can sample (you pay your wine testing) flavors shaped by the island’s unique climate and savor a sip of Cypriot culture. Our final stop is the legendary birthplace of Aphrodite. Known as Petra tou Romiou, this coastal site is famous for its mythical beauty and serene waters. Take time for photos or relax by the shore, soaking in the stunning views. For lunch, we offer an optional stop at a traditional taverna. Here, enjoy authentic Cypriot cuisine in a welcoming setting, perfect for recharging before continuing your journey. This tour blends natural beauty, history, and culture, from the scenic Troodos forests to Aphrodite’s tranquil birthplace. Each stop reveals Cyprus’s spirit, history, and landscapes in one unforgettable day. Whether you’re captivated by lush forests, ancient monasteries, or Aphrodite’s myth, this journey connects you to Cyprus’s timeless charm.Includes
