Discover a completely different side of Cyprus with a full-day trip from Paphos into the beautiful Troodos Mountains. This tour combines spectacular mountain scenery with traditional villages, local food and wine, historic sites and one of Cyprus's beautiful waterfalls.
It’s a great way to experience the traditional side of Cyprus away from the busy coastal resorts.
Approximately 8 hours, making this a full-day excursion from Paphos.
Pickup is available from selected locations in the Paphos area, making the tour convenient if you don't have your own transport.
The tour takes you from the coast into the Troodos Mountains, with stops including:
Aphrodite's Rock – Begin the day with a visit to one of Cyprus's most famous landmarks, traditionally associated with the goddess Aphrodite.
Lofou Village – Explore this beautiful traditional mountain village, with its stone houses, narrow streets and relaxed atmosphere. There is also an opportunity to sample local halloumi and enjoy coffee.
Omodos Village – Visit one of the best-known villages in the Troodos region. Take a stroll through the picturesque streets and visit the historic Timios Stavros Monastery.
Millomeris Waterfall – Enjoy a visit to one of Cyprus's most impressive natural waterfalls, surrounded by the beautiful scenery of the Troodos Mountains.
A taste of traditional Cyprus is an important part of the experience. The tour includes opportunities to sample local halloumi and Cypriot wine, as well as enjoying lunch in the mountains.
The tour can be a good choice for families who want to explore more of Cyprus. However, remember that it is a full-day trip, with walking involved at some of the villages and the waterfall, so comfortable shoes are recommended.
We recommend:
Comfortable walking shoes
Sun protection and a hat
Water
A camera for the mountain scenery
A light jacket during the cooler months, as temperatures can be noticeably lower in the mountains
If you've already enjoyed Paphos's beaches and coastal attractions and want to see the traditional heart of Cyprus, this is a great day out. The combination of mountain scenery, traditional villages, local food, wine and historic sites gives you the chance to experience a very different side of the island.
