Lovely day out - Had a lovely day exploring the little villages in our jeep! Our tour guide Chris (vin diesel) was lovely, he was very knowledgeable throughout the day. The jeeps carries up to 10 passengers (very cosy)! The lunch was beautiful it’s set in a gorgeous restaurant. They take you to villages you wouldn’t no was there and to 2 waterfalls where you can have a little dip. It’s a long day but an enjoyable one.
Overall experience was great and would definitely recommend, communication for pick up was perfect and Chris arrived on time, the day ran very smoothly

Great full day adventure - Our day was wonderful on the Jeep tour! We had Uncle Tiny as our guide and we couldn’t have been happier! He was a funny guy with great stories, knowledgable about every nation’s connection to Cyprus and made us all feel welcome! The trip was great, we enjoyed the off-road as well, Tiny is a great driver and makes everything fun!

BEST EXPERIENCE AND GUIDE - Overall: Amazing tour with an amazing guide experience, I would recommend this tour to anybody looking for a fun and inspiring day.
The guide: We were LUCKY to have George Michael as our guide. Literally the most amazing personality and guide skills I have ever experienced on any destination. He was fun, helpful and had so many interesting things to share about the country, the places we went and basically everything you would like to know (local food, places to go, flowers and tree we went by, etc.). I hope to return to Cyprus to have another tour with George Michael to see the country in the spring or winter. I secretly hope that he will consider combining the jeep tour with a local cooking class - he sounds like an amazing chef who knows how to utilize the locally available foods. TIP: Ask for George Michael if you are looking for an English tour with lots of fun and inspiring information. U will be amazed by his spirit. I hope you tip him well for his great efforts, much deserved.
The tour: We visited all the spots with the perfect time to look around on our own, have some great food or a drink. No rush and not too long at each place.
The practical: We got picked up from the hotel right on time and got dropped off at the same place—everything in the best order. We sat in the jeep together with some other folks (9 in total). As expected a little hot as we went in the middle of a heatwave, but we expected this since it is a jeep tour. TIP: Just wear proper light wear clothing, roll the windows down a bit, and you will be fine. We even wore facemasks during the entire trip inside the car, and we were all perfectly good.

great fast ride - lots of info given and fun drives , great day out, the only thing which was negative is the village lefkara, the jewelry shop lady harassed my daughter to buy a bracelet and gave her severe anxiety, she was upset outside so i took her back in for a refund as she felt pressured, the kind lady was no longer kind, she was throwing stuff in her face to convince her to buy something else priced around £150 , we said NO and she turned her smile into a mean face and got moody. people should not be pressured to purchase anything against their will,.

Interesting but uncomfortable - All started well with the pick up from the hotel. And don`t forget you will be in the back of a land rover with up to 5 people. There is a passenger seat and room for 3 behind, and we were asked if we could all swop round whenever we stopped. That worked fine until the long drive from one end of the island to where we started. Thats when it stated to be a pain in the bum. Overall it was a fun, interesting day. Our driver was called "Tiny". Informative and funny guy. My only gripe i think 80 Euros bit steep.

Uncomfortable jeep and bad guide - Our tour started from Agia Napa
This means we droved almost 1 hour in an old Jeep with no aircondition and old hard seat. On the way back is was 1,5 hours. Would recommand that participants from Agia Napa is transported in a minibus to a point near where the actual tours starts.
Our driver talked very low and was almost impossible to understand so because of the noise from the car nobody in the car could hear what he was telling.
When we reach a stop he didn’t say anything but when we will be leaving again. And then he walks over to talk to the other drivers.

Not a good experience. - Not a good day this was supposed to have been an adventure in the mountains. Ime afraid our driver was a bit daft driving too fast and doing stupid stuff like suddenly dropping down a steep slope. I hoped it would be a relaxing trip but unfortunately it was not. I personally would not do this again
