This tour blends medieval history, archaeology, modern Cyprus, and its traditions.
Our journey begins at the stunning Birthplace of Aphrodite, where, according to legend, the goddess emerged from the sea foam. It is said that bathing here prolongs youth and beauty.
Next, we visit Lefkara, a UNESCO-listed village famous for handmade lace and silverware. Its picturesque stone streets and unique "Lefkaritiko" lace-making tradition make it a cultural gem.
We then explore Limassol, a vibrant mix of old and new. In the Old Town, near the Old Port, you can stroll through narrow streets, sip Cypriot coffee, and shop for local crafts, sea sponges, and olive oil-based products.
Finally, we visit the ancient city of Kourion, perched atop a cliff with breathtaking views. Walk through its famous Greco-Roman amphitheater and experience the grandeur of the Roman era.

    Aphrodite's Rock

    Petra tou Romiou is a wild, windswept cove where waves crash against ancient rocks — and where, legend says, Aphrodite rose from the sea foam. Surrounded by untouched beauty and a horizon that seems to hold its breath, it's a place where myth and nature blur into something unforgettable.

    Pano Lefkara

    Lefkara is the village where, legend says, Leonardo da Vinci came to buy lace for the altar of Milan Cathedral — and the artistry hasn’t faded since. Alongside its world-famous embroidery, the village is known for finely crafted silverwork, still made by hand in tiny workshops tucked into its stone alleys.

    Limassol City

    Limassol’s Old Town is a colorful mix of history and city life, where medieval streets lead to trendy cafés, galleries, and bustling markets. At its heart stands the centuries-old Limassol Castle — a quiet reminder of the city’s layered past, just steps away from the lively seafront.
