Cyprus · NICOSIA TOURS

“We really enjoyed this Northern Cyprus tour and would recommend this tour to someone that has limited time in Cyprus. Sedat was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job guiding us around the northern part of the Island. The tour was just the right length with enough time at each stop. Sedat's vehicle was clean, comfortable and we were very glad of the AC. Lunch was plentiful and very good.”

“One of the standout features of the excursion is the guide's captivating and in-depth narration of Nicosia's history. This storytelling enriches the journey from Paphos to Nicosia and back. Upon reaching Nicosia, a highlight is the chance to traverse the border and delve into Nicosia's "Turkish side". Visiting this city and immersing oneself in its history, as presented by the guide, is a truly enriching experience — a tale that, regrettably, is not often spotlighted in European discussions.”
