5.00Sedat picked us up at a hotel near our Airbnb in Alsancak and first drove us to eastern North Cyprus, on the way providing information on North Cyprus history not only from his perspective as a schoolteacher, but also as a resident who'd lived through the 1974 war. He patiently answered all our questions, no matter how arcane. He's the sort of tour guide we always hope to find. The tour itself includes lunch and all admission fees so there's no additional cost.
Taste of culture

5.00Our guide for the day was Cemal who arrived on time and was extremely pleasant. During the drive to our first point of interest he shared his knowledge of the history of Cyprus and then continued to be a font of entertainment throughout the day. Beautiful scenery and variety of stops. Thoroughly recommend this way to get a taste of North Cyprus.
