Sophia was a knowledgeable and professional guide who made the tour an unforgettable experience. I loved the bonus of learning Greek words to describe different locales. The castles were both incredible and my free time in Limassol granted a new view of the island. I'll definitely book again!
Well organized, excellent...

Little seen of Kourion and no time to visit the excavations themselves. But a lot of time spent in a dusty wine museum without real information. Even the wine tasting does not deserve this designation! Very disappointing!
Too much Limassol

Very short stop at Kourion. If you’re more into archeology less into shopping, this is not the trip for you.
Enjoyable day

Quite a long day so take water, wet wipes hand jel . The scenery is spectacular with plenty of stops on route., to take photos. The pottery factory was interesting, you can have a turn on the pottery wheel. Reasonable prices all labeled for items to purchase. The berber village where you stop for lunch is under shade the food is delicious and lots of it. Drinks are chargeable. Great day out exiting going through the mini Sahara desert , the dam and seeing the atlas mountains.
An Enjoyable Trip!

This was a great trip and we enjoyed it. However, we do think it should be noted that the price includes entrance fees to some of the destinations and THESE ENTRANCE FEES DO NOT APPLY TO OVER 65s. There ought to be a cheaper price for those who should not be paying to go into age-exempt venues.
