Highlights
- St. Thekla Monastery - Agia Thekla Monastery is nestled within the heart of Mosfiloti, a picturesque village in Larnaca’s district. The monastery is surrounded by a green-covered valley offering a serene setting. Similar to Stavrovouni Monastery, Agia Thekla is said to have been founded by Saint Helen during the 4th century. According to the story, Saint Helen prayed to God at exactly where the monastery is situated today. She prayed to God to help her and her escorts because they were really thirsty sue to their travels. After the praying, Holy water overflowed the earth. She then started building the monastery. Till this day, holy water flows through the same spring. The holy water is believed to cure skin diseases.

Mini Mountain Jeep Safari - This is a great day! you get to experience parts of Cyprus that you would not normally go to. Adam our guide for the day was brilliant full of great facts, answered all questions asked and we leant a lot about the Culture, people, the country. You can tell he really loves his job and he was funny too!! Just wished we could have booked another tour with them but ran out of time, but will definitely do next time in Cyprus. Thanks Adam for making out day memorable.

A must do!!! - Trackers Excursions brings you to places off the tourist tracks!
We were with our 15 year old son here on Cyprus and the Mini Safari with our tour guide Kleo was the best activity. If you want to learn about the island, the people, the traditions and the culture, explore it with Trackers Excursions!
It was our top activity with so many wonderful information beside the official tour. Kleo showed us the real island-not the overloaded tourist places. WE LOVED IT. if we would be longer one the island we would book another tour with Trackers Excursions.
…and Christina who handles the reservations is a real gem.
We can highly recommend Absolut fun!!! Thank you so much Kleo and Christina for an amazing experience😘

Excellent - We did two tours with Trackers, one is caves tour with Mike, maybe not the very best English speaker but a really nice person who tried his best to make sure we enjoy this short half day trip. We booked 2nd private footsteps trip on a very last minute due to bad experience with VIATOR and MTS GLOBE (never again, who simply did not show up to pick us up at 07:30). Christina at Trackers quickly helped me out and arranged an amazing day with guide Akis who gets our separate thank you. My 3 kids and I could not wish for better day and we hope to get back and book another tour with you, thank you again
