What you can expect

Embark on a captivating full-day journey from Paphos or Limassol to the eastern coast of Cyprus, where history, mystery, and culture intertwine in the enchanting city of Famagusta.

Your adventure begins with a break on the way to the Monastery of St. Barnabas, dedicated to one of the island’s most important saints. Explore the peaceful grounds and discover ancient icons and the saint’s tomb, nestled in a quiet underground chapel.

Next, step back in time at the ancient city of Salamis, once a thriving hub of the classical world. Marvel at the grandeur of Roman baths, an impressive amphitheater, and majestic marble columns that whisper stories of a powerful empire and a vibrant past.

In the heart of Famagusta's walled city, admire the striking St. Nicholas Cathedral, a stunning example of Gothic architecture that has stood for centuries. Converted into the Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque, this building is a powerful symbol of the island's layered religious and cultural history.

The tour then takes you to the hauntingly beautiful Ghost City of Varosha, a once-glamorous beach resort frozen in time since 1974. Walk along its perimeter and absorb the eerie stillness of abandoned hotels, homes, and streets — a powerful reminder of Cyprus’s divided past.

Enjoy free time to explore the charming streets of Famagusta Old Town, where you can shop for local crafts, savor traditional cuisine , or simply relax by the ancient Venetian walls.

This unforgettable tour is a perfect blend of history, culture, and reflection — offering a rare chance to see the many faces of Cyprus in a single day.
