Cultural overload but done well - Yet again so easy,picked up outside hotel by Vlad again so knew it was going to be good. Long journey but Vlad kept us informed with history and currant affairs of the region. Salt flats,mosque and St lazerus church were very interesting if not surprising and we were left with a good amount of time to wander around Nicosia and pop over to the Turkish side. Yet another good tour.

NICOSIA - LARNACA - This is an interesting trip. We managed to see a different part of the island. On the day of the tour it was very hot, but the air conditioning in the bus worked perfectly. The guide's story is very fascinating. Took lots of interesting photos in Larnaca. Liked the walk around Nicosia and crossing the green line. Had a good day.

Interesting day out but beware if anyone has mobility issues. - The tour was good but anyone with mobility problems needs to be aware that there is a lot of walking, especially down Ledra Street towards the border. We weren’t informed about this by the guide ahead of time. It was interesting to see both sides of Nicosia but there isn’t much time to explore the Turkish side if you intend having lunch in a restaurant. Our guide was ok but their English was a bit hard to understand.

Good tour ! - Vladimir our tour guide was courteous and very pleasant. He was brilliant and cannot fault for anything. The only downside was that the van was very small and crammed. I had a middle seat - I wouldn’t really call it a seat and there were six of us excluding Vlad. The other downside- visiting time at the Hala Tekke and salt lake is not enough. Perhaps, wise to extend it further. It felt rushy. On a good note, our tour guide and driver, Vladimir was excellent, friendly and catered for our needs. He was brilliant throughout. We enjoyed the tour of Nicosia and Lanarca.

Good to know - Loved this tour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable. The main thing we saw in larnaca was the church of Lazarus. This was good. We then went on to nicosia and did the walking tour. This took in many of the sites of nicosia including the green line. This i hadn't realised was like the Berlin Wall dividing the capital in 2. We ended the tour by going into the Turkish side nicosia. This was good although I was very glad to get back to Cypriot side as the turks are very pushy when trying to sell you anything.

I did not take up the trip - No way can squeeze 3 people in the back seat of a car , this to remind the operator that the trip is not a mere transportation ,but a scenery ride , a person can not be squeezed and enjoy the trip Once this is known to us say @9 AM , the day is over , so with limited time in Cyprus it is so difficult to arrange an alternative tour Bad experience. I have a picture and VDU clip to prove ,

legal tourism robbery - it was a terrible experince they actually robbed me with kind reply " we have expenses we cant refund " , what happened that the bus was late other tour company was on site at same time and he took us by mistake he didnt check anything (booking number hotel rooms people names ) , while we was on ride with the wrong tour the original guide was in hotel looking for us , he says that he called us on mobile phone and no respond but for sure as any tourist will be no phone signal ( he can reach us on any internet app like whatsapp ) and he just goooooo without any problem !! when we realised that we are on the wrong trip the guide provide us with a ride to our hotel , then we called this trip company they told us by the meaning of no refund it is your mistake !! Sorry instructions wasn't clear and you came late so it's your fualt not us !!

To Nicosia and Larnaca, absolute terrible experience - Absolute terrible experience , packed into a small long wheel base Ford transit mini bus , needing to be updated 14 people , packed no room to move or sit comfortable throughout the whole experience . Back end of the bus you felt every pot hole for the 5 hour driving experience . Air conditioning, hardly working in 40 degrees heat, sweltering hot , uncomfortable, we will not be recommending, advised on website social distance and hand sanitizer, there was none. Bring a towel and swimwear was advised on website , not required, however pleased we brought a towel with us as much needed due to all the sweating. We will be looking into a refund,
