Discover the coastal city of Limassol with this fascinating all-day trip. From your meeting point at the old harbour, you’ll be free to explore the city for yourself. You can head into the historical centre of the city, formed of narrow cobbled streets lined by quaint listed buildings with overhanging terraces, leading to original souvenir shops, craft shops and fashion boutiques. You’ll have great dining choices, from small eateries to enticing tavernas to enjoy lunch in(lunch is not included), especially at the new yacht-lined Marina. It’s worth visiting the distinguished medieval Limassol Castle, where Richard the Lionheart married Berengaria of Navarre in 1191. On the way back, the coach will course through the lush Citrus Plantations and make a stop at Aphrodite’s Rock, marking a beautiful end to your day.

Comfortable trip, well informed guide
We were picked up outside our hotel in a very comfortable air conditioned coach. Our guide Yannis and driver Chris were great and very knowledgeable. The trip was excellent and allowed plenty of time for a long lunch and to do some shopping, and enjoy the marina too. On our return, we saw Kolossi castle and had a stop at Aphrodites Birth Place, which made a lovely end to a perfect day.

Check your pickup location with the operatir
Pickup point deferent to the one stated on the ticket - the guide Yanis rang me to ask where we were!! We should have been picked up from St George’s hotel & Spa - we weren’t notified that we should be picked up from The Fat Fig - we would have been annoyed if we had missed the coach.
All was good in the end as Yanis was a very good guide & explained everything in full detail to all on the coach - he is very knowledgeable of this lovely island
Limassol has changed a lot in the years that we have been coming
We had a lovely meal for lunch in a place called Coffee Gallery in Limassol we would recommend it - they looked after us as it was very hot and put us near a fan 👏
The food was brilliant & beer really cold 🍺😋

Informative and fun!
Excellent. Our tour guide was well informed and explained many things about Cyprus and the places we visited. We chose to join his 50 minute guided tour through town which was also informative. I wish we would’ve had more free time to walk around which we would have had if we hadn’t joined his city tour. I definitely recommend this trip. Good value!
Operator response

Disappointed by this excursion
Disappointed by the speed in Limassol,
Initially it is announced 4 am in the old town but we stay there only 3 hours.
Guide who keeps arguing with the driver, between 2 explanations very loud.

Exceptional guide
Whilst in Cyprus we booked two tours - Nicosia and Limassol. Our guide Yannis was very interesting and gave such a huge amount of information. Both tours were excellent.
