Cyprus

Cyprus remains the only nation in the world to be split between two countries. Whilst the southern half of the nation is officially governed by the Republic of Cyprus, the northern half is governed by Turkey. Both halves of this nation will offer the traveller completely different experiences and our range of Cyprus Tours can take you on an insightful journey of history, culture and gorgeous scenery.

Paphos, in the southern half of Cyprus, is home to a fascinating range of archaeological sites. The House of Dionysos and the House Theseus are both ruins of Roman villas and are renowned for their colourful mosaic artwork.

The mountainous region of Troodos offers a refreshing alternative to the bustling cities and popular beaches. Within this mountain range lies a prominent range of villages, which are home to stunning monasteries and white-washed buildings.

In the northern half of Cyprus, a journey to Kyrenia will allow you to venture into English history. The town’s Crusader Castle is mentioned as having played a part in the third crusade when it was taken by Richard the Lionheart. Since then, the castle has also been fortified and occupied by the Ottomans and Venetians.
