Qué esperar

Cyprus is full of hidden treasures, and you'll discover some of its rural gems on this full day tour to the Troodos Mountains. You'll drive into the countryside, visiting Lampadistis Monastery in Kalopanayiotis, and enjoying a few pleasant surprises in rustic villages in between. Nefeli, one of our local guides, says, ‘Arsos is the sort of village where you see old men playing 'tavli' – backgammon – in coffee shops.'First up is Platanisteia – a small village famed for its printmaking museum. After finding out about the history of the island's print industry, we'll visit the medieval Tzelefos Bridge – it's a standout selfie spot deep in the middle of woodland. Then, it's on to the village of Kalopanayiotis. It's sprawled over a remote valley dissected by a picturesque stream. You'll drop into a traditional family-run taverna for a lunch made from locally sourced ingredients.The highlight of the day is the village's Monastery of St John Lampadistis. Nefeli says, ‘Its Byzantine frescoes are so exquisite that UNESCO has listed them as world heritage.' The murals, which date as far back as the 14th century, are highly refined and very well-preserved. Admission fees to the monastery, which are included, go to its upkeep. Apart from a trio of churches to amble around, there are monastic buildings, including cells, auxiliary rooms and an oil press. And before heading back to the resort, you'll be able to sample some local wines in a typical Troodos Mountains winery.

Having been on a different trip to a castle and monastery with wine tasting, this trip was not as good. The previous trip had shops near the monastery to visit, look round and buy things. Also the wine tasting was more professional. Nice to see different parts but a lot of driving around.

Älterer Reiseführer war sicherlich sehr kenntnisreich, aber sein Vortrag wirkte runtergespult, oft nicht gut verständlich und vor allem völlig überfrachtet. Insgesamt etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Der eingesetzte Reisekleinbus entwickelte während der Fahrt im Gebirge plötzlich techn.Probleme, musste 2-3 mal anhalten, fuhr dann sehr langsam weiter, teilweise ohne Klimaanlage. Keinerlei Erklärung seitens der Reiseltg. Linos winery hat keine guten Weine - dies fiel auf ! Da gibt es beseres..

Die Fahrt war absolut interessant, es wurde viel Wissen vermittelt. Die Begleiterin war höchst kompetent und freundlich. Der Busfahrer war freundlich und ein großartiger Fahrer. Es wäre gut gewesen vorher zu wissen, dass die Fahrt extremst kurvenreich und nicht für Menschen geeignet ist, denen beim Bus fahren leichter übel wird. Das Mittagessen war in Buffetform (in einem Raststätten ähnlichen Betrieb), was sehr einfach und lecker war, jedoch wenig authentischen Flair vermittelte

We enjoyed every aspect but there was one transfer from one venue to another which was a little long.It was about an hour. I wanted to add one observation that is during out stay we noticed a lot of very large people and the vehicle would have been a little shall we say tight if that was the case. This is not a criticism merely an observation. Your guide Nick was entertaining and knowledgable and the driver George very competent. We had a good day.

We thought that the tour was poor value for money. Long periods of time were spent in a very cramped and uncomfortable mini bus. We appreciate that access roads in the Troodos Mountains limit the size of the vehicles using them but why not reduce the number of occupants in each mini bus. The church at Lampadistis Monastry was disappointing being largely unused and and in a rather sad state of preservation. On the plus side the guide and everyone who greeted us were very friendly and helpful.

It was a goof tour with plenty of variety. On the last through the mountains to the wine tasting there were some beautiful views and would make great photographic opportunities but there were no stops for this. If there were stopping places these could be looked at, if only for a 5 minute break. But on balance it was a great day out

The lunch was very good too. Nothing we didn't like really.

We enjoyed the whole trip. The guide and driver kept us well informed and safe. I liked the fact that it was a mini bus rather than a coach . Lunch was better than we expected and plenty of it. The only thing I would have liked wad a little longer after the wine tasting to browse purchase and use toilet facilities. Well worth the money .

The villages, one to visit the printer, one for coffee were good. The lunch was excellent. The monastery quite interesting but there was only the church to see. There was no background to the monks and how they lived. We weren’t interested in the winery. The owner was amusing and it was a very generous tasting but after the monastery we’d have been happy to return to Paphos. Excellent driver.

The part I least enjoyed was the winery as their wines were not to our taste. Mostly very sour. There are many other places that are producing a better product. The print making museum was very interesting as the artist guided us through his work. The monastery was equally good and our guide was very knowledgeable.

Interessante tour. Gids Chris wist veel te vertellen. Zou eventueel wat kunnen indikken, nu was het soms 'overload'. Geweldige chauffeur, die het lef had om ons voor het klooster af te zetten, andere chauffeurs durfden dat niet. De toegangsweg was namelijk opgebroken. Nu een alternatieve weg. Knap staaltje chaufferen. Andere bezoekers moesten een barre tocht maken. Dalen en klimmen door een rivierbedding. Lunch was prima. Klooster/ kerk indrukwekkend. Prentkunst fraai, Excursieprijs fors.

The transport and the driver were excellent. The tour guide, Nick was very knowledgeable and friendly. However, the bridge at the Monastery was closed. This meant a challenging diversion on foot which some of the tourists couldn’t make. It also meant our time in the Monastery was cut short. But for this the trip was really very,very good.

Ook was de tijd in de bus relatief lang t.o.v. de zaken die bekeken konden worden. Verder kon de gids wel veel vertellen over Cyprus en hebben we een leuke dag gehad waarin veel te zien was.

As Monastery was planned we wore extra clothing that wasn't required. So we're over dressed for the tour The winery was also rushed due to time spent at artist museum The driver was excellent and was contacting the guide to say we needed to leave...on several occasions. The tour was good.. just disappointing for Monastery part

The guide was excellent and provided lots of information. The driver was excellent too, navigating through the small village roads. The lunch provided was good and plenty of it. One person on the trip was ill with travel sickness so if you do suffer take a travel sickness pill and sit in the front of the bus. It was a nice day out.

men zit wel lang in het busje. Voordeel was dat het een beperkt groepje was en geen grote groep. Het was wel een heel tof groepje van Engelstalige mensen maar weinig jongere mensen. Misschien de jonge mensen meer warm maken om de trip mee te doen. De lunch echter, vond ik niet top. ik heb bij vroeger uitstappen ( enkele jaren terug) toch betere lunches gehad.
