Your captivating cultural adventure begins with a pick-up from either Kyrenia or Nicosia!

Our first stop is the revered Icon Museum and the Monastery of Saint Barnabas. This sacred site honors Saint Barnabas, the patron saint of Cyprus and traditionally the founder of the independent Greek Orthodox Church. Explore the monastery's small yet intriguing archaeological museum, where you'll find remarkable artifacts like intact pottery dating back to 4000 BC, alongside delicate Roman glassware and gleaming gold jewelry.

Step Back in Time: Salamis & Famagusta's Grandeur

Next, we journey to the breathtaking ruins of the ancient city of Salamis. Imagine a bustling metropolis that once thrived with over 150,000 people in the 2nd century! Wander through its impressive Roman theatre and the Gymnasium, complete with thermal baths, marveling at the advanced standards of living that existed here millennia ago.

Then, we make our way to the historic walled city of Famagusta. We'll begin our exploration of its impressive fortifications with a visit to the formidable Ravelin. After this, prepare to be awestruck by the Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque, originally the magnificent Cathedral of St. Nicholas. Its majestic Gothic architecture has captivated visitors for centuries, and it's sure to impress you too!

Following this, we'll continue exploring Famagusta, passing through the historic Porta del Mare (Sea Gate), and discovering the dramatic Othello Castle, famously linked to Shakespeare's tragic tale.

The Poignant Spectacle of Varosha

We conclude our day with a poignant visit to Varosha, the once-bustling resort area now famously known as the “ghost town.” This unique site offers a powerful glimpse into recent history.
