Daveys do Famagusta - We had a wonderful day. Tasos was our guide, he was very informative, passionate but also funny and kept us amused throughout the trip. The information behind Famagusta is very sad and tragic and this was delivered perfectly by Tasos. Then on to the boat we went. It was fantastic, weather was great, music was great and the food was very good. Swim stops we perfect and we met a very large turtle 🐢. Great trip would highly recommend
