Enjoyable day - Quite a long day so take water, wet wipes hand jel . The scenery is spectacular with plenty of stops on route., to take photos. The pottery factory was interesting, you can have a turn on the pottery wheel. Reasonable prices all labeled for items to purchase. The berber village where you stop for lunch is under shade the food is delicious and lots of it. Drinks are chargeable. Great day out exiting going through the mini Sahara desert , the dam and seeing the atlas mountains.

An Enjoyable Trip! - This was a great trip and we enjoyed it. However, we do think it should be noted that the price includes entrance fees to some of the destinations and THESE ENTRANCE FEES DO NOT APPLY TO OVER 65s. There ought to be a cheaper price for those who should not be paying to go into age-exempt venues.

Lovely easy day out - Interesting visit to the Kourion 1st century CE house with a knowledgeable guide. Sufficient time in Limassol for a walk around the harbour and the interesting shops and to have a leisurely lunch.

Too much Limassol - Very short stop at Kourion. If you’re more into archeology less into shopping, this is not the trip for you.

Disappointing - Little seen of Kourion and no time to visit the excavations themselves. But a lot of time spent in a dusty wine museum without real information. Even the wine tasting does not deserve this designation! Very disappointing!
