Hello from Cyprus Taste Tours! We're a friendly team of locals all with Cypriot heritage. A group of true foodies, our activities focus on discovering Cyprus through food & wine... There's nothing like tasting fresh, warm halloumi straight out of the pot and on this small group tour there'll be plenty to enjoy throughout the day! You'll be picked up from a Limassol location of your choice and driven into the Troodos mountain countryside to the cheese-making workshop of a village local. You’ll take part in the process from start to finish and the experience will end with a delicious brunch which will include the cheeses made plus lots more. The activities don't end there as you'll be taken further into the mountain villages to visit other local producers and the quaint village of Lefkara or Omodos (village visited will depend on our route on your specific tour date). A day full of fun & flavour is guaranteed! Unlike other tours - EVERYTHING IS INCLUDED / NO HIDDEN COSTS!
We offer door-to-door transport from almost any Limassol location including hotels, airbnbs, private accommodation, landmarks etc. We can also offer pick-up or drop-off at the airport if this makes your participation more convenient. If you do not see your pickup location on the list at the time of booking - please go ahead with your booking and in the unlikely case that we cannot fulfil the pick-up - a full refund will be processed. WE DO NOT ACCEPT CRUISE SHIP PASSENGER BOOKINGS THROUGH VIATOR / TRIPADVISOR - PLEASE CONTACT US DIRECTLY. This tour runs on specific dates - if the available dates aren't suitable and you would like to take part in a food / wine experience on another day then please check Cyprus Taste Tours for our other options as we have activities running on every day of the week. PLEASE NOTE: We offer bespoke journeys into the Troodos mountain range and therefore the itineraries stated are subject to change with the season and the locals available to host us. The timings are a guideline and if you must be back at your accommodation at a certain time - YOU MUST LET US KNOW IN ADVANCE. PLEASE NOTE: The Troodos mountain range spans Larnaca, Limassol, Paphos and Nicosia and it is in the mountainous areas of these districts that you find the rural villages of Cyprus. This tour DOES NOT visit Troodos Square and will only visit various villages within the Troodos mountain region. We keep our tours authentic by visiting true locals and because these local villagers are busy with every day life – we cannot guarantee which stops we’ll be visiting after the cheese-making workshop... However, here’s an example list of products - honey / traditional sweets / wine / donkey milk products / carob honey.

Thank you for your comments! They are very important for us. Please feel free to contact our admin team, we are always interested to hear our guests further feedback! Thank you :)
Such a fun experience! The halloumi making workshop was a lot of fun, and the brunch spread was VERY delicious! Getting to see the sheep and goats was also great. We had 4 other stops that day and all were really good, especially the donkeys and the olive tasting. Demi was a great tour guide as well! I will definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cyprus!
We are so glad that you enjoyed your time with us Phillip!! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave us this wonderful review !!
Demi was a really great guide and the day flew by with so many lovely adventures and information. Beautiful scenery and delicious food too. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for the 5 stars! Really happy you enjoyed the tour ;)
The Halloumi Heaven tour was an absolute blast! The day started off making halloumi cheese which straight after was served for brunch. We even got halloumi cheese making certificates. The visit of a local bee farm, Lefkara and an olive farm made the day adventurous and exciting! The guide was so kind and charismastic. Couldn’t have booked a better tour. This tour is a must when coming to Cyprus.
Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We're really happy to hear you enjoyed the tour and company of your guide! :D
A great experience in a fantastic area with so many nice stops. The tour brought us to beautiful places. Seeing and experiencing the Halloumi production first hand was a wonderful experience. Coupled with a ice wine tasting, a visit to an olive farm, the village of Lefkara and finally the donkey farm rounded up a memorable day.
Thank you so much for this fantastic 5 star review! Always great to hear when someone appreciates our effort and organisation!! ;)
Panikos was an excellent host- very knowledgeable and easy to listen to! We went to some fantastic places and activities including making our own halloumi, wine tasting and chocolate tasting, as well as a stop off in Omodos which was very picturesque. We really especially enjoyed eating the halloumi we had made earlier that day and the chocolatier who talked us through the process of crafting his artisan chocolate, with tasting examples! Would highly recommend this experience!
It is so nice to receive your feedback - thank you! We're really happy that you enjoyed your time with us!
This was a full taste experience of the Cyprus cheese and other food cultures. It was a full and long day but not boring and lots of fun, like the cheese making and seeing the animals. Our experience tasting the freshly made Halloumi and Anari cheese was exceptional, the taste of the cheese can't be bought, if you don't buy it fresh from the farm. The bee-farm was very interesting and we learned a lot about our nature. The Donkey farm at the end was also very nice and if you don't think donkeys can be jealous then visit the donkey farm and check for yourself. Our guide Panico was informative, very nice and friendly and treated us as friends.
Thank you so much for this fantastic 5 star review! Really happy you enjoyed your time with us and it was a pleasure having you on the tour! ;)
What a FANTASTIC day! From the minute Demi picked us up to when she dropped us off it was amazing! Halloumi Heaven was SO interactive it was amazing! Followed by the Bee Company and then the Olive Oil place was amazing and then the absolutely laugh at the Donkey Sanctuary was just hysterical! Fab day! Fab Host! Would highly recommend!!!
Thank you so much for the 5 stars and for your positive comments! It was a pleasure to host you!
What an amazing day learning about halloumi and seeing how it is made. And making it. The family is so sweet. Best ingredient was love. Our guide was amazing!!! Thanks for a beautiful day!!
It's great to receive your feedback, Christine! We really appreciate the 5 stars, thank you!
Most amazing day with so many things packed in. Our host Helena was wonderful. I highly recommend this trip. I am gluten free and the tour company totally accommodated it.
Thank you very much for this brilliant 5 star review and your positive comments! It was a pleasure to host you! :D
