A fascinating day trip exploring Lefkara’s charm and Nicosia’s divided history, highlighted by crossing the border.

5.00Our guided trip to Nicosia with a stop in the charming village of Lefkara was a fantastic experience! Lefkara’s narrow stone streets and traditional shops gave us a glimpse of authentic Cypriot craftsmanship before we headed to the capital. In Nicosia, the highlight was definitely crossing the Green Line into the Turkish side — a unique experience that really showed the city’s divided history and cultural blend. Trying traditional Turkish food there was a change from Greek food. The guide was knowledgeable and made the whole day smooth and informative. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to explore both sides of Cyprus in one day!
Brilliant experience
