    It was a truly pleasant experience — probably the best tour I’ve taken in the past few years. Considering what you pay and what you get, it’s not expensive at all. We visited five perfectly chosen places, plus had lunch, and the time spent at each stop was very well planned — not too long, but just enough to explore and enjoy each location. The tour had a friendly, almost private atmosphere. There were only five tourists, including me. By the end of the day, I didn’t feel like a solo traveler in a group of strangers — it felt more like a trip with friends. None of the places we visited were crowded; on the contrary, it felt like a kind of VIP experience without lines or pressure. My sincere thanks and best regards to our guide, Panico. His deep knowledge of all aspects of Cyprus, along with his intelligence and dedication to his work, made this day perfect and unforgettable. I’m already looking forward to my next holiday in Cyprus so I can take another tour with this company.

    After last year's wine tasting (very good), this year it was Haloumi's turn. Was interesting on the whole, but we didn't like it that much. What was a bit confusing was the "lunch" presented as brunch. I still expected something different than a bunch of things, sorry. The organic olive farm should present itself a little "cleaner" rather than pretending to be rustic. I didn't like it that much, but we still took some tapenades. The honey farm was very interesting and the presentation was characterized by high expertise. Honey was also in the shopping basket. The donkey farm ... is a donkey farm 🤷🏻 The products with donkey milk seem good, but you also present some by the way. Is right 🥴

    I had a fabulous day experiencing aspects of Cypriot food, life and culture that I'd not had an opportunity to explore fully before. As someone with Cypriot heritage - weaned on halloumi from an early age - it was a real eye-opener, getting involved, from start to finish, in the production of island’s famous cheese. And then tasting the delicious fruits of our labour! Another highlight was visiting Lefkara, a picturesque village, and learning about their world renowned lacemaking techniques. We were taken to the historic village church, with breathtaking views, as well as the museum, where a curator shared her knowledge of lacemaking techniques past down from generation to generation. I thoroughly recommend this tour to those wanting to know the real Cyprus. Thank you to Panicos, our warm and friendly tour guide, for his local knowledge and insights.

  • Good day out

    A fantastic day , the cheese making was so much fun. Hi lights were also visiting the animals on the farm and feeding the babies and then having lunch, it was great being able to eat the cheeses we had helped to make. Later getting an insight into the olive oil production and honey collecting was also very interesting. And finally visiting the donkeys was a great end to a fully packed day. Demi our tour guide was amazing and made sure everyone had a great day. I enjoyed our walk around Lefkara and popping into many of the special shops in the village.

  • Great fun day out!

    I had met Loula on another tour and took a real liking to her. When I heard that the Halloumi making experience was with her, I booked straightaway. I enjoyed being involved in the whole process. The meze Loula provided was delicious, especially her orange cake. The other activities were also very interesting and enjoyable. Unfortunately, our free time in Lefkara was spoilt by torrential rain. Our driver, Demi, provided everyone with umbrellas and drove us as close as possible to venues. Demi is very knowledgeable and respectful and funny.

  • great experience, 100% recommend !!

    it was amazing! I loved being involved in the halloumi making process and it was honestly to fun to see how it was being made (after being in love with eating it all this time). our host was so lovely and even though she couldn't speak much English she would do her best for us and she was so kind. we also got to visit a bunch of other places like the donkey farm, bee farm and some olive oil places. we also visited Lefkara village (which I really wanted to go to so what a plus!) overall I really loved it and had no regrets! would 100% recommend
