Gourmet Cypern Tour – lokale smagsstoffer og vin fra Paphos
Beskrivelse
Forbered dine sanser til den mest lækre og overraskende dag på Cypern - en håndlavet gourmet landsby tur fra Paphos tager dig dybt ind i øens mest autentiske smag og skjulte skatte. Dit første stop er den fortryllende kunstnerby Lania - en af de mest maleriske landsbyer på Cypern, hvor stenede gader og charmerende gratis museer skaber den perfekte atmosfære til en afslappet gåtur. Dernæst kan du opleve den duftende verden af Rose Factory i Agros, hvor den legendariske Damaskusros omdannes til olier, skønhedsprodukter, slik og likører. Fortsæt til det traditionelle Smokehouse og charmerende Jam House - hjemmelavede røget kød og ekstraordinære syltetøj fremstillet af frugt, grøntsager og blomster venter. Så besøg Ourania Delights i Foini - en familie workshop, hvor autentisk cypriotisk loukoumi stadig er håndlavet efter en værdsat opskrift fra 1930'erne. Dagen afsluttes på et lokalt cypriotisk vingård - smage den legendariske Commandaria, ildfri Zivania og fine lokale vine.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Lania ligger i de solfyldte bakker i Troodos-bjergene og er en af de sjældne landsbyer, der føles som om den er malet i stedet for bygget. Levende blomster kaskader fra gamle stenhuse, lokale kunstnere viser deres arbejde i charmerende gårde, og den rige aroma af vinfremstillingstradition forbliver i luften. Gå rundt i dens stenede gader, udforsk de charmerende gratis museer, og lad dette levende postkort af autentisk cypriotisk landsbyliv stjæle dit hjerte.
Gemt i bjergbyen Agros, den legendariske Rose Factory er hvor den gamle kunst af Damaskus rose håndværk kommer til live. Hver kronblade er håndplukket og forvandlet til udsøgte olier, parfume, rosevand, traditionelle slik og likører - hvert produkt er et duftende mesterværk af den cypriotiske tradition. Omgivet af blomstrende marker og sprød bjergluft, dette ekstraordinære sted tilbyder en virkelig unik og uforglemmelig sensorisk oplevelse, som du simpelthen ikke kan finde andre steder på øen.
Beliggende blandt de duftende rosenfelter i Agros, er det charmerende Jam House, hvor naturen forvandles til noget virkelig ekstraordinært. Quince, rosenblade, vilde blomster og sæsonfrugter er kærligt forarbejdet til unikke håndlavede marmelader efter opskrifter, der er videregivet gennem generationer. Hver sked er et lille, sødt mirakel – en smag af den cypriotiske tradition, der er så sjælden som uforglemmelig.
Gå gennem døren til Smokehouse i Agros og lad den rige, uimodståelige duft af århundreders tradition omslutte dig. Håndplejede hiromeri, krydrede pølser og omhyggeligt røgede kød — hver af dem fremstillet over lokalt træ efter opskrifter, der er videregivet gennem generationer af bjerghåndværkere. Hver bid bærer den dybe, røgfyldte sjæl i det cypriotiske landsbyliv - modigt, autentisk og helt uforglemmeligt.
Tag en velfortjent pause i hjertet af Troodos-bjergene - nyd en traditionel cypriotisk frokost i en lokal taverna, pust i den skarpe bjergluft, og lad dig oplade, før det næste lækre eventyr venter.
Hidden i den charmerende landsby Foini, Ourania Delights er en lille familie værksted, hvor tiden har stået stille siden 1930'erne. Autentisk kypriotisk loukoumi er stadig håndlavet her ved hjælp af den oprindelige familie opskrift - enkle, traditionelle metoder og de fineste lokale ingredienser skaber noget virkelig magisk. Blød, duftende og smeltende - hver bid er en sød rejse ind i hjertet af det cypriotiske arv, som ingen fabrik kunne kopiere.
Bag hver flaske på Lambouri Winery ligger en historie om 2.000 års produktion. Denne ekstraordinære familieejendom har en særpræg i modsætning til ethvert andet vingård i verden - det er den eneste producent uden for Israel, der har lov til at fremstille koshervin, genoplive den gamle Ya'in Kafrisin, der engang prydede tabellerne for den cypriotiske adel. Spænd, nyd og smag på det legendariske Commandaria, den brændende Zivania og et omhyggeligt udvalg af prisvindende lokale vine – hvert glas er en skål til Cyperns usædvanlige vinfremstillingsånd.

For any with mobility issues there are quite a number of steps and inclines to walk up. The visit to the rose factory, winery and loukoum producers were very good and informative. However, the visit to the smoked meat shop was probably a waste of time and would have preferred some time on our own in Laneia which was a lovely village. The driver chose the venue for lunch which was on a road with no particular views. It would have been nice to have a choice. Overall would recommend this experience although with reservations as noted above.
Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. We're really glad you enjoyed the rose factory, the winery and the loukoumi producers. The smoked meat stop is part of this gourmet tour — it's there to give a full taste of local Cypriot produce. We do take your point about Laneia, and we'll look at how we can allow a little free time to explore such a lovely village. Thank you for the honest comments and the recommendation — we hope to welcome you on another EOS tour soon!
Highly recommend. Each stop was a unique experience of homemade produce and a step back in time especially in the village of Lania at the beginning. An authentic lunch in the well known " Linari Taverna" certainly delivered before our wine tasting later in the afternoon. Well done Eva..and thank you.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed the trip, the stops, and the charming atmosphere of Lania village. It’s great to know that lunch at Linari Taverna and the wine tasting left such a pleasant impression. We look forward to seeing you again! 🍷🌿
Great and very friendly guide! The stops are very well chosen. All kinds of treats included. You pay for lunch yourself, but it is cheap and also very delicious.
Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihnen die Tour und unser Guide gefallen haben. Diese Exkursion ist speziell darauf ausgelegt, einen Einblick in das alltägliche Leben und die kulinarischen Traditionen Zyperns zu geben. Schön, dass Sie das genießen konnten!
Picked up in small people carrier from our hotel by Vlad. As we were the only people on the tour we had his undivided attention. His knowledge of the island and it's history was excellent and he kept us entertained with facts and anecdotes. He was also an excellent driver. From a visit to the village of Laneia where we tasted some beautiful wine and purchased a bottle to bring back, we then went to Agros village. Here we visited the traditional sweets company Nikhe (sampled many delicios items), the Rose factory (the pure rose scent was so relaxing) and Kafkalia deli to sample smoked meats. Next we had a superb lunch at a traditional family restaurant called Makris. An added bonus was a visit to Cyprus Chocolates, where Katerina was so welcoming and knowledgeable, teaching us about pure 100% dark chocolate as well as the other beautiful chocolates they produce. Finally we visited another larger winery The Lambouri winery - LionSpirit. Again we were giving a history of the winery and tasted some lovely wines. All in all this was an amazing day's tour and we can highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for such a warm and detailed review! We are absolutely delighted to hear that your day with Vlad left you with so many positive impressions. We’re proud of his knowledge, attentiveness to our guests, and of course, his excellent driving skills! We’re very happy that you enjoyed visiting the villages of Laneia and Agros – they truly are special places full of charm. It's wonderful that you got to taste delicious wine, traditional sweets, fragrant rose products, and local delicacies. A special thank you for mentioning the lunch at Makris restaurant and your visit to Cyprus Chocolates – Katerina really has a passion for what she does and loves sharing it with others! And of course, we’re thrilled that you also enjoyed your time at Lambouri Winery. Thank you for choosing us and for your kind recommendation. We would love to welcome you back to Cyprus again soon! 🌞🍷🌸
A lovely day out, up in to the mountain. Visited Lania a small village our group was just four of us and travelled in a people carrier. Went to a sweet factory, traditional smoke meat shop and other places in the Trodos mountain range. Our driver was very knowledgable on everything from the plants to the geoology. And she also took us to a small restaurant for lunch in the mountains. I can imagine this trip in the summer is a must as the mountains are pleasantly cooler, than the beaches.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're very happy to hear you had a lovely day exploring the Troodos Mountains. It sounds like the small group setting made for a more intimate and enjoyable journey. The visit to Lania, the sweet factory, and the traditional smoke meat shop must have been great highlights. We're glad you appreciated the guide and the peaceful mountain atmosphere, especially with the cooler temperatures. We agree—it's a perfect escape from the summer heat. We hope to see you again on another adventure soon!
Mini bus arrived bang on time, had air con and was fine. Vlad introduced himself and did his best to convey lots of information. Stopped at Lania for toilet stop and walk round. Then onto a sweet shop that had lots of lovely stuff... From there to a Rose factory shop, got a small insight into production and was interesting. Then weirdly to a shop selling dried and smoked meats and other foods. Fro here went to Makris restaurant for very pleasant lunch which you chose and paid for. After lunch popped into a chocolate shop with brief intro and chance to buy. Then finally Lion Spirit winery. Here sampled three wines with chance to buy. Then an hour back to Paphos. Overall it was ok. But no chance to take a single picture of the mountains. Really a glorified shopping expedition.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear that you found the mini bus comfortable and that Vlad provided informative commentary throughout the trip. We appreciate your feedback regarding the itinerary and understand your desire for more opportunities to take in the scenic views. Our goal is to offer a balanced experience, and we will take your comments into account for future tours. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure that better meets your expectations!

Dear Traveler Hello Thank you very much for your review and for the high score ! With best wishes, EOS TOURS TEAM
Very interesting trip ""TASTE OF CYPRUS"". It was really hot even in the mountains. Loved the ride through the mountains-beautiful roads. We visited the village Lania (like a fairytale village). In Argos village we visited the Rose factory, Smoked meat factory - delicious, and House of Jam - a world of sweets. We enjoyed wine offered in Lamburi winery. I would like to note the safe driving on the mountain roads and the work of the guide. Thank you for a good day!
Nice tour with lots of tasty shops and factories to visit. The tour was pleasant and well planned. If you suffer from travel sickness I recommend to take a travel pill due to some road bends on the way :)
