Unveil the Hidden Gems: A Grand Tour of Famagusta & Kyrenia

Journey back in time as we explore Salamis, one of the grandest kingdoms which is located on the east coast of Cyprus until 7AD. Marvel at the remnants of a bygone era with a visit to the Gymnasium, Roman Baths, and the well-preserved Theatre, breathing life into the stories of ancient times.

Reviews

An excellent one day tour of North Cyprus for 3 Canadians (went to St Barnabas Monastery, Salamis, Famagusta-Varousha, Bellepais and Kyrenia Harbour). Sirin was our guide & driver in her very comfortable Jeep. Very good driver. Knowledgeable, and avoided expressing political opinions. Fast paced - we covered a lot of ground in 8.5 hrs. Professional but friendly, and flexible to our requests. Didn't take us to any shops other than the one we requested. We would recommend Sirin for a worry-free tour.

Our tour with Sirin was great. She ensured we saw everything of note. She is very knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. She took us to a great place for morning tea and the most beautiful restaurant for lunch. Thank you Sirin for an amazing day.

Sirin provided a fascinating day of historical and cultural insight into Famagusta and Kyrenia. She packed a LOT into 8 hours, and also tailored the day to our interests and pace, spending more time on things that piqued our interest and suggesting some sights that we might want to spend less time on. She was patient with our (many) requests for photos, even out the car windows, and interspersed her historical knowledge with local color and personal insights. A day with her is highly recommended!
