Despite the heavy rain,... - Despite the heavy rain, we enjoyed our trip to the mountains. If you can get travel sick I recommend taking some precaution as the roads are very curvy.

Great day - Great day out. The guide was very knowledgeable and very informative. The timings for the breaks and visits were sufficient and not rushed. Being picked up at the hotel made a real bonus.

One of the best trips ever taken - From the on-time collection in the very comfortable minibus to the incredible knowledge provided by our guide during every part of the day, the trip was exceptional - we were amazed by the monasteries, the churches, the landscape, the small villages and the welcome in each. Our guide’s commentary was so helpful, making our choice to use Viator the right one… hiring your own vehicle and doing the same route would mean having to read up on each location in such detail prior to your arrival that it would take away the surprises on arrival. And also, the roads are so tight and full of bends in the mountains that the knowledge of the driver took all of the potential stress out of the mix. All in all, one of the best and most revealing trips we have ever taken.

One day in Cyprus ♥️♥️♥️ - The trip from the agency was very well planned. The guide was knowledgeable, attentive and caring about all travelers. We enjoy every stop and the whole journey. Sometimes there were wish to stop the moment. Excellent. I recommend!

Enjoyed much more than expected - Usually stay away from big tour groups, but this one ran smoothly and allowed a good deal of independent exploring compared to what I would have expected. The sites of course are well worth seeing, and the trip ran very smoothly.

Knowledgeable guide - The guide showed her extensive knowledge of the sites visited. Unfortunately Omodos was undergoing major works so the square wasn't open.

Great trip with Zofia! - We had a great trip with Zofia, very knowledgeable tour guide with lots of interesting facts. Saw 3 beautiful monasteries. Some scenic views and a lovely spot for lunch at a local restaurant. Also stopped at a very cute town called Omodos and tried some delicious homemade cakes. These are a must try in you’re in town!! Only downside was the bus was so hot, not sure why as it was not too hot outside.

Terrible. - When entering the bus the everyone was sitting in the middle or back of the bus. No one was in the front seats but there was a purse there, usually meaning that the seat was already occupied, one would suppose by the tour guide who was outside. So everyone passed it by. When the bus filled up, the tour guide had to remove her purse to let the last people on sit there as there was nowhere else. So the last people on got the best seats. Where does that ever happen? You will waste time a money at a ridiculously terrible restaurant in the middle of nowhere at lunchtime when you’re starving and there is nowhere else to go. The buffet food is beyond terrible. The lamb is joints of sheep. The chicken is old rooster legs (no white meat). We were gouged 15€ for this mess of pottage, and then another 4.5€ for one coffee. Then afterward we drove to a nice village with lots of restaurants that looked quite good. It was cold up on the mountain and the only fire was against the wall so it only heated in three directions instead of four. The bus driver sat on the table on one side before anyone else could sit there and had the good sense to order a panini (obviously having experienced the buffet that was highly recommended by the tour guide). The table on the other side had a “Reserved” sign on it so no one could sit there, though no one ever did sit there. So only one couple got to sit by the fire and stay warm. The desert was supposed to be something like baklava, but was some gooey dough that was terrible. the bananas offered were not ripe. The orange was good, so I’ll give them that. Really, all we wanted to do was avoid renting a car and driving on the wrong side of the road, and see a few really nice and famous churches. That could have been done in an afternoon without a lot of time wasting. Although I will say that the time spent (30 minutes) at The Cypriot leader’s tomb was extraordinary and worth the trip all by itself.
