Itinerario
Dove il Mediterraneo si schianta contro rocce antiche e la leggenda diventa paesaggio — Petra tou Romiou è uno di quei luoghi che ti ferma sulle tue tracce. Questa selvaggia insenatura spazzata dal vento è il luogo in cui è nata la mitologia greca — il luogo stesso in cui si dice che Afrodite, dea dell’amore e della bellezza, sia sorta dalla schiuma del mare. Stare in riva all'acqua, sentire gli spruzzi sulla pelle e capire perché questo luogo mozzafiato ha affascinato viaggiatori, poeti e sognatori per migliaia di anni.
La leggenda narra che Leonardo da Vinci stesso una volta percorse i vicoli di pietra di Lefkara — e partì portando con sé squisiti merletti fatti a mano destinati all’altare del Duomo di Milano. Secoli dopo, l'arte non è sbiadita da un solo punto. Questo incantevole villaggio, dichiarato patrimonio dell'UNESCO, produce ancora il famoso merletto Lefkaritiko e argenteria finemente lavorata - ogni pezzo è amorevolmente fatto a mano in piccoli laboratori nascosti in vicoli di pietra riscaldati dal sole che sono cambiati poco dalla visita di Leonardo.
Dove le strade medievali in pietra si scontrano con caffè alla moda, gallerie vivaci e bancarelle affollate del mercato, Limassol Old Town è l'esperienza urbana più dinamica e sorprendente di Cipro. Passeggia attraverso secoli di storia, sfoglia l'artigianato locale, i cosmetici all'olio d'oliva e le spugne di mare naturali, quindi imbattiti nell'imponente castello di Limassol - un guardiano tranquillo e secolare che si trova a pochi passi dal vivace lungomare. Una città che indossa il suo passato e il suo presente con uguale orgoglio.
Arroccata drammaticamente su una scogliera che domina lo scintillante Mar Mediterraneo, l'antica città di Kourion è uno dei siti archeologici più mozzafiato del mondo intero. Il magnifico anfiteatro greco-romano domina ancora l’orizzonte come duemila anni fa, mentre le ville piene di mosaici sussurrano storie di grandezza romana e di vita quotidiana congelata nel tempo. Cammina tra le rovine, senti la calda pietra cipriota sotto i tuoi piedi e capisci perché il tempo stesso sembra essersi fermato qui - solo per ammirare il panorama.

It was well organized and on time. Our guide Vladimir made it very interesting and gave us a lot of information about Cyprus in general and the places we visited.
Thank you very much for your feedback! We are very glad to hear that the tour was interesting and informative for you. We will definitely pass your kind words on to Vladimir — he will be very pleased. We would be happy to see you again on our future tours!
We weren’t sure of size of vehicle we would be travelling in. A small 7 seater pulled into the hotel car park, no sign in window. We eventually realised he was looking for us. The vehicle was cramped for the journey we took. I was lucky I was in the front. My wife and friends found it uncomfortable. The driver/guide was very polite and knowledgeable, gave us lots of info. Kourion was interesting an ancient settlement.Then took us to Limassol harbour where we had lunch then not much time to explore. Lefkara was a pretty traditional village. All in all a decent day out tarnished by mode of transport.

We really enjoyed seeing Lefkara which was the hilight of the trip for us but wish we could have had more time at this beautiful village. The ruins at Kurion are good to explore with the lovely mosaics & it was also nice to see the marina & old town of Limassol. The tour guide was very informative and helpful and we would recommend this trip.

Excellent guide, went out of her way to enrich the experience for us. Informative and very open to questions. Managed the small number with ease
Hello Thank you very much for your review we are glad to hear back from you. Your comments are noted and highly appreciated. Hope to see you again! With the best wishes, EOS TOURS TEAM
Good programme. Visiting 4 locations. I would say, there is not enough time in Limassol and in Lefkara. Add another 30 minutes in each of these locations. The tour would still return at a reasonable hour.
Dear Traveler Thank you very much for your review. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour. We are always trying our best! Thank you for your time leaving this comment, it helps us a lot to improve better. Wis to see you again. Best Regards, EOS TOURS TEAM
Kurion was extremely interesting but we would have benefited from having a guide take us round. Limassol was virtually a complete waste of time. We spent approximately 1 hour 40 minutes there but with little to do aside from lunch. So many places were closed. Lefkhara was so interesting and beautiful but we barely spent 30 minutes there. No time at all to have time to ourselves and do a bit of shopping. The schedule for the day was extremely poor and frankly Limassol could have been exclude leaving more time at Kurion and Lefkhara
Dear Traveler Hello We appreciate the time spent on leaving this review. And we thank you for participating in our excursion trip. The excursion was provided as it was advertised and the schedule was kept as planned. The trip you participated in is a sharing coach tour, for the customers who want flexible timing we provide individual trips for extra cost. We hope that after all you left the trip with good vibes, and you have reason to return. We hope to see you again. Best Regards, EOS TOURS TEAM
This tour was good as it hit all the main tourist attractions I wanted to see. However, our guide did not have a lot of information for us at any of the sites. The tour was also a bit rushed at the end with only 10min to wonder at the last location.
Dear Traveler Hello Thank you very much for your feedback. The trip operated as it was planed the guide is providing enough information on each trip but not to much because not always it is needed, but he/she is always available and happy to answer any questions you may have. Eos Tours Team is always doing it best and you reviews helping us to improve more and more. Thank you very much for this opportunity. Best Regards, EOS TOURS TEAM
Very nice guide. There were 4 of us on this excursion. The 3 cities are very beautiful! The duration was very very good!
Dear Traveler Thank you very much for your review and the given high score. We are glad to hear back from you in a such nice way. Wish you all the best, EOS TOURS TEAM
The west coast of Cyprus let me down quite a bit, because it is not spectacular and the beaches are either bouldered or brown sand and muddy touch. On the other hand, archaeological sites abound for lovers of ancient stones such as the one that subscribes, although there are also no remains too showy. The island has been so cruelly razed and on so many occasions, that there are by no means too many striking ruins left. I take this fate for granted, and I don't think it'll come back.
Dear Traveler Hello Unfortunately, we would kindly request you to delete or rewrite this review, since you are writing here your opinion in general about Cyprus and nothing about the excursion or our service. We are not even sure whether you really have been on our trip or not because you are not writing your name or the day of the trip, not even which places you visited. Thank you very much for understanding. Best Regards,
A company that does not respect its customers. We ordered and paid in advance, the only company that collects will pay in advance. This trip is terrible. We asked to return after an hour. We said there was an older man with us. They didn't think. They planned an inappropriate trip. The company refuses to return the payment. Don't take them. Beware of crooks
That's the fourth review we are receiving from you. By the policy, you can not review a trip you never have been on. But this is not stopping you. Unfortunately, we can not add you here your email screenshots but we will add your last email descriptions below: " Is it worth it to you to insist on 250 euros, as expected from a serious company that failed in s a trip? .and continue to receive negative opinions. I think that your decision makers are making a big mistake to insist in this way. " We hope it is a time issue till the TripAdvisor policy will delete your reviews.
