Limassol & Pafos

€50.00 per person

The bus will depart from Nicosia and head to Limassol on the south cost of the island. We will enter Limassol and drive along the seashore till we reach the Limassol Castle which houses the Cyprus Medieval Museum where we will have a guided tour. We will then continue through the citrus plantations to pass outside Kolossi Castle, and to visit the Cyprus Wine Museum for a short tour and video screening about the history of the wine in Cyprus, followed by a wine tasting of two different Cypriot indigenous types of wine and Commandaria wine with bread and raisins. Then we will visit the ancient city of Kourion where you will admire the impressive view from the top of the magnificent and imposing Greco-Roman amphitheatre (2nd century BC), and then proceed to Aphrodite’s birthplace Petra tou Romiou. According to mythology, Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, rose from the waves in this strikingly beautiful spot. We leave Aphrodite’s Rock and we head to Pafos, where we will visit the Houses of Dionysos with remarkable mosaic floors dating from the 3rd century AD. Free time will then be given at the picturesque harbour of Pafos before returning to Nicosia.
