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.

Private Tour of Nicosia and Kyrenia from Limassol & Larnaca

A superb excursion. We...

A superb excursion. We chose to concentrate on Kyrenia as we werte going to Nicosia later in our holiday. Kyrenia town and region are beautiful, but the highlight was the spectacular St Hilarion Castle, built in three main sections on precipitous mountainside. You must be fit! We, regrettably, were unable to reach the topmost sectikon housing the Royal Apartments,. Also, rather more time would be needed than is allocated in the tour itinerary, so be prepared.

From Nicosia, Kyrenia & Famagusta- 3 Cities in oneday Tour

Best Single Day Tour in North Cyprus!

I booked this tour for my mom and me while we were visiting friends in Cyprus and our tour guide Gema made everything easy. She messaged me on WhatsApp promptly, confirmed where we should meet and asked about my mom’s mobility to plan the day properly. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about making this a good experience for us. After further discussion, she adjusted the route so we could comfortably fit everything into the eight-hour day without overdoing it for my mom's limited mobility. We started in Famagusta, where we visited Varosha ghost town. Hearing Gema talk through the history, how the area once thrived, what happened in 1974, and why parts of it still sit abandoned, made the visit powerful. She explained things in a way that was easy to follow and added context we wouldn’t have gotten on our own. Next, we headed to Kyrenia and spent time around the harbor inside the old walled city. We had lunch and one thing I appreciated was how flexible everything was when it came to payment such as USD, EUR, TRY and GBP. It gave us the freedom to eat wherever we felt like without worrying about using specific currency. We wrapped up at Bellapais Abbey. It’s peaceful, scenic, and full of character. Again, having Gema there to share stories and background made the experience richer. Throughout the entire tour, Gema drove us in her own car, which was clean, comfortable, and perfect for getting around easily. Most importantly, she was patient and respectful of my mom’s pace, checking in with her throughout the day and adjusting as needed. I would happily book with Gema again and recommend her to anyone visiting North Cyprus, especially if you want a guide who’s knowledgeable, kind, and willing to tailor the day to your needs.
