Ce qui vous attend

Chypre est tout en collines ondulées parsemées de jolis villages. Lors de cette excursion réservée aux adultes, vous verrez où une légende est née, visiterez les ruines de Kourion, vous aventurerez dans le village d'Omodos et terminerez la journée par une dégustation de vins. Eva, l'une de nos guides locales, dit de cette excursion : " Vous vous promenez à travers des étapes d'histoire, de culture et de mythologie ".

Vous êtes directement transporté dans le passé à Kourion, un site archéologique des plus impressionnants de Chypre. Vous y visitez les thermes romains et entrez dans la pièce maîtresse du site, le théâtre gréco-romain. Des concerts y sont encore organisés à ce jour. Les mosaïques du trio de maisons excavées connues sous le nom d'Eustolius, des Gladiateurs et d'Achille sont aussi impressionnantes que lorsqu'elles ont été construites. Vous continuez avec la visite du château de Kolossi, datant du 15ᵉ siècle. Cette forteresse construite par les croisés et empreinte de légendes est aujourd'hui entourée de plantes en fleurs.

Il sera l'heure du repas du midi dans une taverne familiale, suivi de la visite du village bordé de montagnes d'Omodos, pour vous promener dans des rues pavées étroites bordées de bâtiments byzantins. Avec le charme de ses maisons en pierre et sa tranquillité, c'est le village préféré d'Eva. "On se croirait dans un conte de fées. J'adore entrer dans un café et voir les habitants discuter de philosophie, de politique et de potins", ajoute-t-elle. Pour finir, une séance de dégustation de vin vous invite à en savoir plus sur le vin doux de commandaria, l'un des plus anciens cépages au monde.

    Viimeinen kohde, kylä jossa viinin maistelu - kylä oli kaunis ja siellä olisi voinut viettää pidempään aikaa kuin vajaan tunnin. Tuossa ajassa Ei ehtinyt kiertää kylää ja tutustua tarjontaan ja nähtävyyksiin

Ancient Kourion, Kolossi Castle, Omodos and winery tour from Limassol

Cyprus is all rolling hills dotted with pretty villages. On this adults-only tour, you'll see where a legend was born, visit the ruins of Kourion, venture to the village of Omodos and cap off the day with a wine tasting. Eva, one of our local guides, says of this excursion, ‘You'll wander through layers of history, culture and mythology.'You'll dive straight into the past at Kourion, one of the most impressive archaeological sites in Cyprus. Visit the Roman baths and amble into the site's centrepiece, the Greco-Roman theatre. Concerts are still held to this day. While the mosaics of the trio of excavated houses known as those of Eustolius, the Gladiators and Achilles are as impressive as when they were laid down. The 15th-century Kolossi Castle is up next. This steeped-in-legend Crusader-built fortress is nowadays surrounded by blooming plants. Then, we'll head for a local lunch in a family-run taverna before visiting mountain-fringed Omodos where you'll wander around skinny cobbled streets lined with Byzantine buildings. It's Eva's favourite village. She says, ‘The charm of the stone houses, the tranquillity and peace. It's as if it has sprung from a fairytale. I love dropping into one of the cafés and seeing locals have philosophical discussions, political arguments and a bit of gossip.' To finish, there's a wine tasting session, where you'll learn all about sweet commandaria wine – one of the oldest varieties in the world.

Ancient Kourion tour with Paphos Harbour visit
Excursions & day trips

Ancient Kourion tour with Paphos Harbour visit

Cyprus is home to some hugely important ancient Greek and Roman sites. On this tour, you'll take in Aphrodite's Rock, ancient Paphos and the Tombs of the Kings, visit Kourion – and enjoy free time in the Paphos harbour area. Andreas, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The Tombs of the Kings offer us a valuable insight into ancient Mediterranean culture. There are very similar tombs in Alexandria, demonstrating the strong ties between the two cities in ancient times.'After a coffee pit-stop along the way, you'll stop by Kourion archaeological site to see landmarks such as the theatre – dating from the 2nd century BC – and the Agora. En route to Paphos, there's a photo stop at Petra tou Romiou – or Aphrodite's Rock – where, legend has it, the ancient Greek goddess of love and beauty emerged from the sea foam. Andreas says, ‘At Kourion, you see the ruined house of Eustolios and find out what life was like here before the city was destroyed by an earthquake in the 4th century.'Next, we'll head to ancient Paphos for a guided visit of the Tombs of the Kings, the House of Dionysos and its well-preserved mosaics. Andreas says, ‘The rock-hewn Tombs of the Kings were not actually intended for royalty, but instead the aristocracy and island governors were laid to rest here. The name reflects the sheer grandeur of the necropolis.' Later, you'll enjoy some free time to shop and wander around Paphos Harbour. Maybe you can stroll along the waterfront or grab a bite to eat at one of the many terrace cafés.
