Whole day was fantastic! Andreas did a fantastic job to keep everything organised and everything went smoothly. Keep up excellent work Andreas!
The man with the long hair With Astoris( can’t really remember his name ). He is knowledgeable friendly and patient. We had a good time with him
It was ok, only 30 minutes for two swim stops. Limited space and very hot on the plastic seats with very little cover shade. Food is an acquired taste 😂. Music and the workers were great with service though. Although the drinks are not how they should be (sex on the beach made with cranberry juice)
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We believe this review may have been posted under the wrong excursion, as your comments refer to our Blue Lagoon Ayia Napa boat trip, which includes lunch on board and two swimming stops, rather than our Blue Lagoon Akamas tour listed here. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed the music and found our crew friendly and helpful. We also appreciate your comments regarding the seating, shade, food, and drinks, and we will pass your feedback on to our boat partner. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you on another of our excursions in the future. Kind regards, Louis Ascot Travel & Tours
The car ride to the blue lagoon was way too long. Taxi driver was good. Boat trip was beautiful. Blue lagoon was a bit disappointing
Tour guide was lovely, learnt a lot of information, and was a really relaxing day! The blue lagoon is beautiful and great to swim in.
After being disappointed with my hotel location I booked a trip with Ascot - As a solo traveller I was apprehensive and on the morning I told the driver I wasn't sure about going but he was so lovely and put me at ease. Lovely boat trip, the 2 hours on the beach after was a bit hard being alone but I saw the bus drivers Chris and Elias and they were so lovely and chatty. Although the journey to the port was longer than I thought and wished the stop off at Aphrodites rock was a little longer but Chris went the extra mile to make sure I was ok and I was so glad he encouraged me to go. Overall a really lovely day :-)
Me and my mum had the best day! The Blue Lagoon’s water was unbelievably blue and clear – swimming there felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our driver, Chris, was fantastic as always – professional, friendly, and full of interesting tidbits. The boat was spotless and comfortable, and the ride was breathtaking, with stunning rock formations, caves, and turquoise water straight out of a movie. The crew took great care of us, with clear swimming guidelines, life vests, and lifeguards keeping everyone safe. This tour was such a unique mix of scenic cruising and swimming – highly recommend if you’re looking for something truly special!
The overall excursion was so much fun, it was lovely to see another part of the island. The tour guide was so funny and friendly and it was overall an amazing experience and a must-see if you’re in Cyprus for longer.
Our private tour to the Blue Lagoon in Latchi was amazing. Everything was organised so well, and nothing was too much trouble for the captain of our boat. There were 9 adults and 2 children. Water and fruit were available on the boat and we did take extra snacks. It was a lovely short trip from the harbour to the Blue Lagoon, which was just beautiful. We had great fun for a few hours, playing in the sea and relaxing on the boat in the sunshine. On returning to the harbour we had lunch at a traditional Cypriot restaurant overlooking the sea, which was delicious. What a treat and a great day out, enjoyed by all.
Our private jeep safari in Akamas turned out to be a delightful part of our trip, and it was a wonderful surprise for my husband's birthday! Our driver, Nikolas, greeted us at the hotel wearing a birthday hat, which immediately set a fun and welcoming tone for our day's adventure. Nikolas was a fantastic guide and truly pleasant company throughout the tour. He was very accommodating, ensuring we were comfortable and enjoying the journey. His knowledge of the local area, the varied terrain, and even the Land Rover Defender we were riding in was quite impressive. He navigated the beautiful Akamas peninsula skillfully, sharing interesting insights along the way. The company certainly went the extra mile to make my husband's birthday special. They thoughtfully arranged a birthday cake as a surprise at our lunch stop, which was a lovely and unexpected touch. The private tour itself was excellent. It gave us the flexibility to explore at our own pace and truly appreciate the stunning natural scenery of Akamas. Overall, I would definitely recommend this private jeep safari, especially if you're looking for a personalized and engaging tour experience. A big thank you to Nikolas and the team for a truly enjoyable day!
