Famagusta and Salamis Full-day tour from Agia Napa & Protaras

Samina, Famagusta and Varosha

It was a very nice and well-organized tour and it was interesting to understand the history of Cyprus. Our guide Olga was very good and professional. We recommend it.

9 Days Panoramic Cyprus for Honeymoon with Private Car

Great tour through Cyprus

• Overall organisation: all worked really well; it is a good idea to have a summary sheet with all pick-up times and contact details – great! • Hotels: every single hotel was nice and a recommendation to stay, in particular we liked the Kemerli Konak Boutique hotel because of its design • Programme: as we wanted (we agreed a few changes to the set programme), the days worked really well and we had enough time at each point and were typically back the hotel around 4pm (except the Paphos day which was with the drive and the exceptional sites a much longer day); just to notice: the one sheet itinerary and the agreed programme were not completely identical, e.g. in Nicosia the Byzantine Museum or in Ayia Napa the Monastery of Ayia Napa were missing but our guide added them to the programme after we noticed this • Our guide was nice, reliable, and punctual. His English vocabulary was good, but he still was difficult to understand. We believe he did not understand us well either. He was guide and driver in one. His car was comfortable and sufficiently large for the three of us. He had difficulties walking, so he often led us just to the first sights and then let us wander across the location. His knowledge on Cyprus modern history was excellent. However our focus was more on ancient history, and we had the impression that – in particular in the south – he was not so familiar with the sites. At occasions we would have wished for a more engaged guiding. On the other hand he was very flexible. As we had two days with heavy rain we moved the planned walk to the Waterfall to the day before. Even better was that he suggested to move the St. Hilarion Castle to the next day (which made this day long for him as well) but only so we could really see the St. Hilarion Castel as it would not have been possible in the rain. Concluding: we really enjoyed again this tour with Agate Travel (this was our second after Tunesia last year) and if we do a similar trip next year, we will reach out to them again.

Discover Famagusta from Paphos

Truly amazing, an experience not to be missed

A thoroughly enjoyable day. Travelling to various places of interest and completing at the ghost town. The coach was new and very comfortable, fully air conditioned. We had a guide who had first hand experience of the Turkish invasion of her home town when she was a small child named Eva. Her tour guidance discussing the event that resulted in the desertion of this town coupled with her actual experience made the whole experience emotional and truly moving.
