Prompt, convenient coach pick up. Excellent driver and guide. Latter most informative. Nicosia very interesting city and we crossed the Green Line to explore the Turkish side. It is a long way and a lot of time therefore spent on the coach. Not a lot of time afforded in the city and advisable to take a packed lunch there for affording maximum time to sightsee. Very good value excursion though.

The price of the trip was good The bus was on time - full coach of people, over 1 hrs to collect everyone up and down. The guide was very professional /I observed the guide can be very abrupt with answers. Not enough time in Nicosia 2 1/2 hrs. I expected more time to spend there. She was very one sided about the history and made us afraid to cross the Turks side. She said that you MUST be on time if not the coach would leave us. Most people came back at the coach very early.

Nicosia town ....shops were closing down so a bit of a let down too many restrictions to cross over the green line to Turkey. Still with going though ifbyiu haven't been before. Sofia tour guide and Fetos driver both were great. Informative and professional as alwaysc

Wonderful as always with guide Sofia. She is professional as usual. Very knowledgeable about the places we visit.

We opted to do this trip as we visited Paphos for 4 days and wanted to do a couple of excursions. This trip was highly disappointing - we spent a lot of time in the coach with a tour guide (Sophia) who honestly sounded like she’d rather be anywhere else. Her explanation of history and the sites we visited was limited, lacking, very unclear to follow and at points very biased. At times her attitude bordered on rude and dismissive when someone in our group politely enquired about the next toilet break. She also left us to our own devices (which was fine) without giving us clear directions. All in all, disappointing and would not recommend. Too much time spent travelling with limited commentary and a mean spirited tour guide.

I used the free time to cross the Green Line into Northern Nicosia. The process of going through security and seeing the stark contrast between the two parts of the city were incredible.

11's of us have a lovely time in Nicosia and the lady's repis very knowledgeable. The minus point is not enough time to explore the South and north of the city!

Julia_F

The information from the tour guide and the beautiful city of Nicosia. I met very friendly locals in Nicosia whereas people in other parts of the country tend to be less friendly.

Sophia our guide was very knowledgeable about every aspect of the trip, we enjoyed listening to what she had to say and highlights pointed out. We had plenty of time when we stopped along the way with good timings to be back on the bus. Nicosia was delightful even though we didn't have time to go over the border due to so much to see in Nicosia itself. The place is so diverse from old to new with small quaint streets with lovely resturants, gift shops and coffee bars. Definitely a trip not to be missed . Thankyou Sophia we have taken alot away from this wonderful trip. Highly recommended

Elizabeth_D

A very worthwhile visit to Nicosia, thanks to Adamos, our driver and Maria, our guide who gave a very interesting, informative history of the island en route. On arriving in Nicosia we were shown inside the Cathedral, where the religious paintings were explained to us. With just 21/2 hours to explore on our own, there was just time to go up the tower and view the whole city from 11th floor, go through the Ledra Gate checkpoint to visit the Turkish side. We left at 1.45pm to get back to Paphos in heavy traffic. A memorable day, well organised and good value for money.
