A Perfect Way to Experience the History of Cyprus

5.00Our guide, Chryso, was wonderful from the start. She picked us up right on time and immediately set the tone with her warm personality, deep knowledge, and the sweetest hospitality. The itinerary was packed with history yet never felt rushed. We visited castles, ancient ruins, UNESCO sites, the harbor and Aphrodite’s Rock and more, and each stop felt meaningful. Chryso always showed us where to get the best views and helped us understand what we were looking at which made the day feel so much richer. Lunch was a highlight too. Since we are staying in Ayia Napa during the off season and struggling to find authentic food, having her take us to a local spot was spectacular! The weather in late November was perfect around 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Shorts, tanks and comfortable walking shoes were exactly right. We didn’t end up needing the jackets we brought just in case. My boyfriend wanted to see ruins and this tour exceeded both our expectations. We felt safe, well taken care of, and left with memories we’ll talk about for a long time. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Cyprus!!
Excellent way of seeing the most of Paphos

5.00Whoa I think I’ve seen the entire Paphos in just one day! Thanks to itaxis and chryso for the amazing tour. Chryso provided water, fruits and she really went her way out to help me find lokoumades! Enjoyed my day and I’m so glad I booked it with them to maximise the little time I have in Cyprus!
Steve should be your driver

5.00Truly an incredible day filled with history, beauty and adventure. Steve our driver was fantastic. He gave us every detail about the island and navigates us to all of our stops with ease. He was friendly, professional and extremely knowledgeable. The door to door service was perfect for me and finally. Thank you. Highly recommend this experience as a private event.
Great way to start a trip to Cypress

5.00I used itaxi for a day trip to Paphos from Larnaca, Cypress including intermediate stops to see Kyrenia Castle, Tomb of the Kings, Aphrodite's Rock, Sanctuary of Apollo, the Kourion Archaeological site, and the incredible mosaics of the Paphos Archaeological Park...and we stopped for lunch at one of the best Greek/Cypriot restaurants I have ever eaten at. My guide, was incredible. Excellent conversationalist (and thus wonderful English), great knowledge about what I was going to see, very safe driver, and made sure that I had plenty of time to visit each site as desired. She also took me to a fantastic Greek restaurant for lunch......what a great food experience!! (that was probably one of the best parts of the tour). This visit was the first day of 10 on my vacation and it is going to be hard to top. Highest recommendation for this tour.
Eight hours.....2,000 years of history.

5.00Lucas was both informative and friendly on this tour. He made every effort to ensure I was getting the most out of the experience. He touched on history, mythology, culture as well as providing recommendations around the drop off points where to eat, how to save money etc. highly recommend
Lots of sites

4.00Great day visiting a number of significant sites. A personal favorite was thy castle at Kolossi, used by the Knights Templar. Lots of other interesting places as well and it was fun to see many folks taking pictures of the wrong rocks at the site of Aphrodite’s rock event though the others are a bit more spectacular. The Apollo sanctuary was quite nice as well. We found our car to be a bit small for sn sll day road trip but all in all a very nice outing.
Very interesting day

4.00We saw quite a number of times of great sites today and found them all interesting. A favorite had to be the castle that housed the Knights Templar. Lucas is s good driver guide but can be difficult to get a question answered if it is off script. I found the car today to be a bit too small for an all day road trip but all in all a very good day.
Best Personal & Flexible Way to Tour

5.00Great way to tour- with itaxi! Extremely knowledgeable & amiable driver , this is such a more flexible & relaxed way to tour as opposed to a large group with a strict schedule. My driver was able to wait 30 min. For me as I had mixed up the dates & wasn’t ready. Also during our trip I needed to go to a pharmacy- was easily done -couldn’t have done that with a regular tour group. Also saw additional interesting sites that driver knew of in the areas we were touring. I learned sooo much. Love this way of touring so much! Will def do again
