Escape the coast and head into the heart of Cyprus on this full-day Troodos Mountains tour — a perfect blend of history, spirituality, and stunning natural scenery.
Your journey begins in Omodos, one of Cyprus's most picturesque villages, where cobblestone streets wind past traditional stone houses and sun-drenched vineyards. Step inside the Timios Stavros Monastery, home to a relic of the Holy Cross and the Holy Rope — a place of deep spiritual significance for Orthodox Christians.
Winding higher into the mountains through the charming villages of Pedoulas and Prodromos, you'll arrive at Kykkos Monastery — the most famous and wealthy monastery in Cyprus, founded in the 11th century. Admire its breathtaking frescoes and see the revered icon of the Virgin Mary, believed to have been painted by St. Luke himself.
Just a short walk away on Mount Throni lies the Tomb of Archbishop Makarios III — Cyprus's first president and national hero — with sweeping panoramic views that make this one of the most memorable stops on the tour.
The day ends on a delicious note at Lambouri Winery, where you'll sample the island's finest wines, including the legendary sweet Commandaria and the fiery traditional spirit Zivania.
This tour is made for travelers who crave authentic experiences — where ancient monasteries, mountain villages, and local wine tell the real story of Cyprus.
