Cyprus · KOURION, KOLOSSI & THE ANCIENT SITES
12 reviewed
The island is small; the choice is not. These 12 kourion & ancient site tours are the ones worth the day, with prices, running times and the detail nobody mentions until you are already on the bus.
Guided Kourion and House of Dionysus mosaics, Paphos Harbour free time, Geroskipou tasting, and a quick stop at Aphrodite’s Rock.
“A great selection of locations with a knowledgeable tour guide. Some of the stops are very brief, but I supposed that’s necessary to stay on schedule.”
Aphrodite’s Rock, a wine-and-delight tasting stop, and Kourion Museum, all from Limassol in a small group half-day loop.
“Guide overbooked. Got very late start trying to figure it out. Hard to hear the guide. Guide was sweet, but not very informative.”
See Salamis ruins and Famagusta’s medieval core, then step into Varosha’s ghost town on a full-day tour from Paphos.
“Our guide Eva was very informative and knowledgeable, whilst also giving us her own personal account of what happened when the Turkish invaded. Thank you Eva for making this trip so memorable.”
Paphos day trip to Aphrodite's Rock, Lefkara lace village, Limassol Old Town, and Kourion ruins, with pickup and entry included.
“This an excellent tour from Paphos. However it was a shame that we only had 1 hour at Kurion despite our guide saying it takes at least 2 hours to see the whole site. We would have preferred longer at Kurion and less time in Limassol as there was far less to see there.”
Paphos guided day trip to Kourion ruins, Kolossi Castle, Omodos and a winery tasting, plus lunch with wine on an air-conditioned coach.
“An excellent tour of the historic sights and a superb wine tasting at a winery.Our guide Chris was superb as was our driver also named Chis. A tour not to be missed if you are in Pathos”
A small-group morning from Paphos to Petra tou Romiou, Kourion, Kolossi Castle, then free time in Limassol old town.
“Positive and relaxing trip. Knowledgable guide, clean and comfortable transport, a lot of time to explore the sights. I wasn't that impressed with the sites and the city though but the overall trip was much more relaxing than the other ones I participated in from different companies.”
Ayia Napa to Famagusta and Varosha in one day, with Salamis ruins, St Barnabas, Green Line crossing, and free time in old town.
“Excellent tour, you can see a large chunk of North Cyprus with abandoned areas of Famagusta (more than 50 years ago), St Barnabas (patron saint of Cyprus) shrine (bring your own candles) and Greco-Roman theatre and baths. A pleasant experience and a very friendly and helpful guide.”
Aphrodite’s Birthplace, UNESCO Lefkara village, Limassol Old Town, and Kourion ruins in one 7-hour day trip with pickup and guide.
“Our Guide was very knowledgeable and cheery. The only thing I hadn’t envisaged was the people carrier. Luckily I was in the middle seats, but my husband who sat in back said it was quite bumpy!”
A private full-day ride from Larnaca to Cyprus UNESCO churches, with Byzantine paintings, mountain villages, and easy pickup.
“Maria is a great driver and guide. She shared lots of useful information about the whole country. And she called ahead to make sure each church was open for us . Overall a wonderful day.”
See Kourion’s theatre, Kolossi Castle, and Omodos with included lunch and Cypriot wine tasting from Paphos.
“Very enjoyable tour that includes a little bit of everything with regards to history, architecture and typical Cypriot old village life. Our tour guide Lisa was very knowledgable and also very funny 😄”
Ancient Kourion, Aphrodite’s Rock, Tombs of the Kings, plus guided Paphos sights and free time in town, from Limassol.
“María was fantastic. She was knowledgeable, funny, and efficient with the tour. We covered a lot of ground in several hours, and showed us where to have a great lunch on the pier. Highly recommend.”
See Kourion’s Roman mosaics, Paphos House of Dionysus mosaics, and Aphrodite’s Rock from Protaras on a hotel pickup coach day.
“Almost 12 hours on a coach to see a few Roman mosaics, a rock in the sea and then 2 1/2 hours at Paphos harbour. Extra money if you wanted to go and see some more sites once you got there. Not an expensive trip really not particularly interesting”
