Due to hot season, the mountain tour is a good way to relax and tour some historic sites. Tour guide has allocated and provided sufficient time for each stop over and attractions. It was a small group. Save the efforts to drive on own.

This trip was well worth it. Our driver Nicholas was very knowledgeable and friendly. The transport was comfy and cool. Thelunch stop was freat value and lovely food. There were regular stops for comfort breaks too.We were part of a small group, about 12. Everyone one got on so well, we were all friends by the end of the trip. If we gone by ourselves we would have missed so much

A full day tour of the mountains in a comfortable, air conditioned mini bus. The natural views were spectacular, and really only accessible through a tour like this if you don’t drive. Laneia village, Kykkos monastery and the stop at the peak of the highest mountain to see a stunning view of the entire island were truly worth it. Some of the other stops, like the winery and Omodos, not so much…

The perfect tour to take as a solo traveler that needed a day away from the resorts in Limassol City. The tour guide, Chris, traversed the mountain driving with ease while providing interesting information about Cyprus. Highly recommend for people looking to learn more about the history of Cyprus and explore more of the diversity of the Country.

Chris was our guide, he was brilliant. He gave us so much information about the the areas we visited. If you want a trip to the mountains this is the one to go for 10/10.

At the recommendation of my wife, who had taken this tour last year, I booked this tour. Or guide was well informed, good humoured and gave a lot of information is a very interesting way. I will be happy to take the same tour, if I ever come to Cyprus again.

We had a lovely tour, and I learned so many new things on our tour. I did not feel rushed, and the pace was good.
