After this, you'll head to Katerina Sweets, a local confectionery workshop with panoramic views of the Cypriot landscape. You'll enjoy traditional Cypriot coffee paired with a "glyko" (spoon sweet), while watching the preparation of these sweets behind glass panels.

Next, you'll explore the narrow streets of Laneia, a small traditional village. Its white chalky soil provides ideal conditions for growing grapes used in producing top-quality wines.

Then you'll visit Monagri Village, nestled against the Troodos mountains. This 'small valley' monastery village since Byzantine times offers an authentic glimpse into village life.

Finally, you'll head to Menegros Winery, a multi-award-winning establishment that will introduce you to the principles of making the iconic Commandaria wine.

Ancient Kourion tour with Paphos Harbour visit

Cyprus is home to some hugely important ancient Greek and Roman sites. On this tour, you'll take in Aphrodite's Rock, ancient Paphos and the Tombs of the Kings, visit Kourion – and enjoy free time in the Paphos harbour area. Andreas, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The Tombs of the Kings offer us a valuable insight into ancient Mediterranean culture. There are very similar tombs in Alexandria, demonstrating the strong ties between the two cities in ancient times.'After a coffee pit-stop along the way, you'll stop by Kourion archaeological site to see landmarks such as the theatre – dating from the 2nd century BC – and the Agora. En route to Paphos, there's a photo stop at Petra tou Romiou – or Aphrodite's Rock – where, legend has it, the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty emerged from the sea foam. Andreas says, ‘At Kourion, you see the ruined house of Eustolios and find out what life was like here before the city was destroyed by an earthquake in the 4th century.'Next, we'll head to ancient Paphos for a guided visit of the Tombs of the Kings, the House of Dionysos and its well-preserved mosaics. Andreas says, ‘The rock-hewn Tombs of the Kings were not actually intended for royalty, but instead the aristocracy and island governors were laid to rest here. The name reflects the sheer grandeur of the necropolis.' Later, you'll enjoy some free time to shop and wander around Paphos Harbour. Maybe you can stroll along the waterfront or grab a bite to eat at one of the many terrace cafés.
