Overview

Welcome to Cyprus!

Our journey begins at Kolossi Castle, a medieval fortress from the Crusader era, followed by the ancient city of Kourion and its impressive Greco-Roman theatre with sea views. We’ll also visit the Sanctuary of Apollon Hylates, beautifully set on a hilltop.

Next, enjoy a coffee break at Aphrodite’s Birthplace, the legendary spot where the Goddess of Love was born.
