Great value for money - We got exactly what we wanted and expected out of this tour. The trip to Nicosia was comfortable with Emma providing interesting commentary en route. In Nicosia we got some time to explore for ourselves and maybe go over the border to North Cyprus, which we did. Both sides were interesting to see and the time provided was enough.

A good historical account - The 17C church where we were given much history . The guide was very clear and helpful and we enjoyed listening to her.

The walk around Nicosia... - The walk around Nicosia was extremely interesting and our guide was very knowledgeable. The advertisement should make clearer the length of time that the walking tour takes. (Up to 2 hrs). It mentions that it’s not suitable for wheel chair users but no advise for anyone who is limited physically and would find the pace too demanding.

Nicosia day out - Prompt, convenient coach pick up. Excellent driver and guide. Latter most informative. Nicosia very interesting city and we crossed the Green Line to explore the Turkish side. It is a long way and a lot of time therefore spent on the coach. Not a lot of time afforded in the city and advisable to take a packed lunch there for affording maximum time to sightsee. Very good value excursion though.

Interesting day trip - The price of the trip was good The bus was on time - full coach of people, over 1 hrs to collect everyone up and down. The guide was very professional /I observed the guide can be very abrupt with answers. Not enough time in Nicosia 2 1/2 hrs. I expected more time to spend there. She was very one sided about the history and made us afraid to cross the Turks side. She said that you MUST be on time if not the coach would leave us. Most people came back at the coach very early.

Nicosia feedback - Nicosia town ....shops were closing down so a bit of a let down too many restrictions to cross over the green line to Turkey. Still with going though ifbyiu haven't been before. Sofia tour guide and Fetos driver both were great. Informative and professional as alwaysc

A divided island - Visiting Nicosia and North Nicosia is worth the experience for me, the bus journey lasts about a couple of hours each way, once you arrive you quickly visit the Greek-Cypriot part of the capital and then you have enough free time to tour the city in autonomy and crossing, for those who wish, the border with the Turkish-Cypriot side. What I liked least was that the guide's account of how we got to 1974 was neither impartial nor free of judgement. This made me think a lot about the possibility of future reunification. Before listening to what the guide has to say, I recommend finding out about the events that actually happened and avoiding slightly modified or omitted notions.

Disappointing and unkind tour guide - We opted to do this trip as we visited Paphos for 4 days and wanted to do a couple of excursions. This trip was highly disappointing - we spent a lot of time in the coach with a tour guide (Sophia) who honestly sounded like she’d rather be anywhere else. Her explanation of history and the sites we visited was limited, lacking, very unclear to follow and at points very biased. At times her attitude bordered on rude and dismissive when someone in our group politely enquired about the next toilet break. She also left us to our own devices (which was fine) without giving us clear directions. All in all, disappointing and would not recommend. Too much time spent travelling with limited commentary and a mean spirited tour guide.
