Excellent day, Maria our guide was knowledgable, interesting and friendly, it felt like a day out with an old friend! Comfy transport. Varied stops, particularly enjoyed the olive oil tasting and monestry, although they were all excellent, the icon painter and her jams, the turkish delight shop, all very interesting. Final stop was the wine tasting which was spot on!! We had lunch in the mountains….. wow what a feast the food was amazing and just kept coming! Came home with lots of purchases and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. The booking communication was also 10/10! Highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful day outing in Cyprus with CTT in Dec 2025! All of our stops were outstanding and showcased a great variety of Cyprus, from a candy making stop, olive oil tasting, a spontaneous Christmas market, a very special Greek Orthodox Icons stop. We also visited a Monastery, had an excellent lunch of traditional foods in the coziest taverna, and a fun wine tasting! What a day! This is one of the best day tours we have been on in our extensive travels of Europe, we returned to our hotel feeling energized and happy. Our tour guide Christina was both knowledgeable and fun, she is such a fun person to spend the day with! We never felt pressure to buy anything at the shops, the focus was on the history and the interesting facts at each stop. But, we did purchase some treasures because everywhere Christina took us was so special and unique and some of the shops had exactly what we were looking for in souvenirs from Cyprus. Highly, highly recommend! We can't wait for our next visit to Cyprus, and we would definitely sign up for another tour with CTT!

Elena picked us up from our hotel, but and drove us into the mountains to discover how halloumi is made, and tried some olive oils and olive liqueurs, visited a local icon painter and a Christmas Market and finished with a delicious meze lunch. Our group was lovely and Elena was very friendly and knowledgeable. A fantastic day!

Georgina has been our guide and she was wonderful went and extra mile to make us feel great. She has very extensive knowledge of Cyprus and also answered all our questions so patiently. It was a great re experience as we got to experience how the locals live and know about their small businesses and taste all the wonderful food on the taste tour. It was very lovely day for us!

I can't recommend this experience more - Christina was AMAZING guide. Initially, I thought this trip would be too long for me, but time has melted. Very knowledgeable and communicative guide. Can't recommned enough - got to know Cyprus from all angles. Loved food, loved sightseeing and panoramic views and loved people, who were hosting us. Additionallu, I am usually super annoying with my questions - Christina has covered everthing in 110%! Thank You, Christina, trip was amazing - will definitelly return again. This trip is definitelly for those, who want to experience Cyprus from cultural and history perspective. Everything from food to history. Also, I would like to thank Louisa and Niki, who have managed to accomodate my last minute bookings. Initially I have booked wine tasting, literally last day, and because there were not enough people for this trip - I thought I was screwed, however, Louisa has managed to move my booking to village tour in no time. Furthermore, I had issues with internet and was unable to check my emails - both Louisa and Niki were able to reach out to me via WhatsApp and explain everything. Thank you!

A brilliant taste tour with a sample variety of the most exquisite halloumi, olives, meats and wines from rural locations. We were treated to wonderful vistas, a historic monastery stop, and some unique Byzantine style artworks. A great mix of experiences. Christina was amazing looking after us, with her stories, humour and friendliness. She's a genuine people person, so warm and welcoming. I would highly recommend this trip. Can get nippy in the mountains so bring an extra layer if travelling outside of summer. You will enjoy!!

A wonderful tour with an excellent guide. Apart from the wonderful food and wine tasting (plenty to eat!), I particularly enjoyed visiting the studio of the icon artist Myrianthi.
