Troodosbergen Halloumi Making: All Inclusive Workshop & rundtur

Our host Georgina was excellent. The whole tour was very informative and great fun.

Lovely food tour with local people .

Great tastings of Cypriot specialities

Eleni was very friendly and a nice guide. Good knowledge, arrived on time to collect us we had a lovely time. Halloumi making interesting and fun to do. Thank you.

This tour was an absolute highlight of our trip and offered such a unique, insightful look into the sustainable side of Cyprus. From start to finish, everything was thoughtfully curated and beautifully executed. We began at Loula’s Farm with a hands-on halloumi-making workshop, which was both fun and informative. It was followed by a delicious, carefully prepared brunch featuring standout dishes like mushroom koupes and olive pastries—an absolute treat! The experience continued with a stop at Ecophysis Bee and nature centre for a wonderful honey tasting, and then some relaxing free time in the picturesque village of Lefkara, which was simply charming to explore. A special mention must go to our guide, Helena, who was fantastic. Her knowledge, warmth, and attention to detail truly made the day unforgettable. If you’re looking for a small, personalized experience rather than a large, impersonal coach tour, this is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

I took the tour in Larnaca with the guide Maria and it was such a fun experience. We visited places that I never would have thought of by myself. Lots of family owned factories, and tasted traditional food.

Our host Georgina, was incredibly knowledgeable and warm. She escorted us through a whirlwind of food tasting and showed us how each was made: halloumi; sousoukos; wine tasting; honey tasting; donkey milk products and olive oil. I particularly enjoyed feeding the donkeys!

My mum and I recently did the halloumi taste tour. It was such a fun and interesting day - you have the opportunity to get really stuck in and try new things. Maria was our guide and she was brilliant. She was knowledgeable on all the activities, processes and overall environment - with lots of fun facts. She was also super chatty, friendly and outgoing - it was an absolute pleasure to have her as our guide. I would definitely recommend this day out to anyone :)

An excellent value for money trip. From the day previous when Cyprus Taste tours emailed with pick up times, collection at my pick up point was almost to the minute with a friendly welcome. Only six guests in the group and then a full day with a very knowledgeable guide Georgina who is fluent in Greek and English. The halloumi making was carried out in a traditional way and our small party were able to join in from start to finish. Georgina made sure everyone was involved. The brunch was traditional with plenty for everyone. We then went on to various other visits including an olive oil farm, an apiary, and the Donkey Sanctuary which is far more than just a sanctuary! Trust me - worth the visit! Georgina drove us through some old traditional villages and we stopped at one for some time to walk and take it all in. Georgina also gave us the option of staying with her for a guided tour or to walk about on our own. My pick up was at 08.45 and I did not return until 17.45 so a very full day. I was also glad of the advice given regarding warm clothing as my visit was in December and the Trodos villages are much colder than the coastal areas. You definitely benefited from jumpers and jackets. All in all, a really good day out!

Our guide took our small group (just 3 of us) on a fun and informative tour. We enjoyed our time making Halloumi, where we were involved in nearly all of the steps. We enjoyed the Halloumi we made (and other local foods) and chatted with some locals who were there to buy Halloumi. We made a number of other stops, each of which gave us insight into the history and culture of Cyprus.
