Cyprus Tours & Vacations

Welcome to the best-kept secret of the Eastern Mediterranean.

Not all that long ago, Cyprus was a place you’d think twice before traveling to. But although this island country remains divided after a military coup in 1974, the beauty of the land and the hospitality of the people stand unfettered as the country edges towards unification. The south is well-established in tourism, but the Turkish -controlled northern part combines adventure, local interaction, history and cultural immersion with an understated flair rarely found elsewhere in the Mediterranean. Join us, on our way to stunning mountains and beaches, as we strike up a conversation with the locals over a sip of fiery zivania .

Local culture of cyprus.

Cypriots are generally known for their warmly, hospitable quality, and the high value they place on family. There are really two kinds of Cypriots though: Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots, since Cyprus is divided in two. Greek Cypriots are the Greek-speaking Greek Orthodox community; they occupy the south. Turkish Cypriots are the Turkish-speaking Muslim community, who occupy the northern part of the country (roughly a third of it).

Before the 1974 military coup and the subsequent split of the island, the two groups were largely mixed. Their cultures were more intertwined. Nowadays, however, with the island formally divided, there is more of a cultural divide. There are still many signs of cultural harmony, though. One need only look at the Home for Cooperation, a community centre and NGO hub located in the Green Line (the UN Buffer Zone between north and south) to see signs of hope for unification. Indeed the reopening of border points in 2003, allowing domestic travel between north and south, was a step forward.

While southern Cyprus has seen rapid tourism growth and environmental degradation, tourism in the north is growing at a much slower rate. The Republic of Northern Cyprus (formally recognized only by Turkey) is characterized by a Turkish–Cypriot dialect, warm hospitality and friendliness, and Islam (though its practice is not as overt as in many other Muslim countries). The culture of northern Cyprus is strongly influenced by Turkey, but Turkish Cypriots consider themselves Cypriot first and foremost.

Geography & environment

Located in the Eastern Mediterranean, Cyprus is an island that lies west off the coast of Lebanon and Syria, north of Israel and Egypt, and south of Turkey. At 9,250 square kilometres in size, it’s relatively small. Cyprus is essentially split in two: the northern part of the country (roughly one-third of the land mass) is controlled by Turkey, and has been ever since the coup of 1974. The lower two-thirds of the country is occupied by Greek Cypriots.

Northern Cyprus boasts a diverse and scenic land mass of beaches, mountains and sweeping plains. The Kyrenia Range is a major geographic feature of the north, and its highest peak is Mt Selvili (1,023 m). East of this mountain range, there is a peninsula called Karpas, where the quiet town of Rizokarpaso and various beaches are found. The holiday towns of Kyrenia and Famagusta lie in the north and east of the main land mass, respectively.

Shopping guide to Cyprus

Cyprus is a fantastic place to shop for locally produced items, from handcrafted textiles to fresh fruit and vegetables. Perhaps the most tempting souvenir in Cyprus is a kilim – an Ottoman style rug woven by hand. There’s also some wonderful Turkish pottery, silk, scarves and tiles to be found.

Lefkara embroidery is a uniquely Cypriot item, originating in the village of the same name in the south; northern versions of Lefkara embroidery have a slightly different aesthetic. North Nicosia is a great place to shop for handmade lace like this, as well as baskets which are handmade in island’s more remote villages. Often rugs and baskets are not cheap, and it pays to shop around a little before you buy.

Thanks to the strength of Cypriot farming communities, market-fresh local produce is never too far away in Cyprus. Start with Nicosia’s markets – both the ‘open’ and ‘closed’ markets are worth a good stroll around, and great for local interaction.

Cyprus festival calendar

The Cypriots are a festive bunch, which shows in their jam-packed calendar. The Limassol Carnival is a major event in the south – it’s one of the best-known carnivals in Europe. In the north of Cyprus, food is a major theme of the festival calendar, with an event to celebrate just about any Cypriot food imaginable: the orange, grape, lemon, date, tulip and walnut, just to name a few. Famagusta, meanwhile, has a reputation for regular music festivals.

North Cyprus Olive Festival, Kyrenia (October)

It started in 2001 and before too long grew to attract visiting artists from many neighboring countries. Olives are certainly not the only focus; dance performances, market stalls and seminars have all been known to feature in this multi-day affair.

International Famagusta Art & Culture Festival (June/July)

Spanning hip hop, reggae, pop and classical, this 20+ year-old event has steadily grown into one of the most significant music festivals of the Mediterranean. With a strong world music bent, it’s a great place to experience just how much more there is to the region than sun, surf and sand.

Eco Festival, Buyyokonuk (October)

For many years the village of Buyokkonuk has been a bastion of sustainable tourism and all things local, and this late-summer festival is a place to taste Cypriot food done the slow, proper way. While the cuisine is the main focus, music and market stalls feature among the festivities.

Food and drink in Cyprus

The cuisine of Turkish Cypriots comes from Mediterranean, Southern European and Middle Eastern influences. The beauty of eating in Northern Cyprus is that ingredients tend to be local, as food production is more agrarian in the north than in the south.

Must-try food and drink in Cyprus

Meze is a major pillar of Cypriot food culture, in the same way tapas is to the Spaniards. It’s the share-plate style of eating, the perfect accompaniment to a few drinks with friends. Meze dishes might include hummus, beetroot, yoghurt, grilled halloumi, spicy pastourma (cured sausage), koupepia or dolma (stuffed vine leaves) … the list goes on.

2. Halloumi

Is it Greek, or is it Turkish? No matter where you stand on the debate on its origins, this rich brined cheese is one of the must-eat foods in Cyprus. If it’s grilled (it usually is) it’s best consumed within minutes of it being served, preferably with copious lemon juice.

3. Molihiya

A spinach-like dish often seen in Northern Cyprus, Molihiya is perhaps of Arabic origin. It uses sun-dried Molihiya leaves which have a distinct and potent flavor. Garlic, lemon, tomato and chilli are incorporated, and often chicken is too.

4. Cicek dolmasi

Another beloved Turkish-Cypriot dish, these zesty and spicy parcels are squash blossoms (or zucchini flowers) stuffed with a mixture of rice, onions, tomatoes and herbs.

To call it the local ‘firewater’ may be a little harsh – the Cypriot drink of choice certainly has a character of its own, though colourless and sugarless. It’s distilled from grapes but has a subtle raisin aroma, and is as refreshing in the summer (served cold) as it is heart-warming in the winter.

Ayran is a savory yogurt-based beverage that is mixed with salt and served cold. Though filling, it’s quite refreshing and a great option for those who don’t drink alcohol. To get the full authentic dose, go for one with some dried mint in it.

7. şeftali kebabı

Pronounced Sheftalia Kebab is a traditional Cypriot food. It is a type of sausage without skin, that uses caul fat, or omentum, the membrane that surrounds the stomach of lamb, to wrap the ingredients rather than sausage casing, thus ensuring a very juicy kebab

Cyprus travel faqs, do i need a visa to travel to cyprus.

Residents of most western countries can enter Cyprus visa-free provided they are visiting for less than 90 days. Note that visas are the responsibility of the individual traveler, and entry requirements can change at any time, so it's important that you check for the latest information. Please visit the relevant consular website of the country or countries you’re visiting for detailed and up-to-date visa information specific to your nationality. Check the Essential Trip Information section of the itinerary for more information.

Is tipping customary in Cyprus?

Tipping is not expected in most situations in Cyprus, but it’s often appreciated. In restaurants, however, tipping is quite common. Servers will often add a 10% service charge to a bill; if they don’t, a similar amount is often expected as a tip.

What is the internet access like in Cyprus?

Reliable internet access is increasingly common in Cyprus, especially in the major towns. Internet cafes tend to be more prevalent in the north. Wi-Fi is free in many hotels and cafes in both the north and south. Internet access will be more scarce in remote and rural areas.

Can I use my cell phone while in Cyprus?

International roaming is possible in Cyprus in the South.  For European travelers, as of 2017 this will no longer incur a fee. Traveling in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus roaming may not be available and if so it may be expensive, better to check with your provider before traveling. If you’re staying for longer than a few days, inexpensive SIM cards with data are easy to purchase.

What are the toilets like in Cyprus?

Toilets in Cyprus block easily when paper goes into them, hence the separate wastebaskets you’ll see for paper disposal. This is the norm throughout Cyprus.

What will it cost for a…?

The below prices refer to Southern Cyprus. For the cost of items in the north where Turkish currency is used, you can deduct 30%:

• Snack (souvlaki or felafel wrap) = €3–4
• Glass of beer = €3­–4 (north and south)
• Lunch in a cafe = €8–12
• Dinner of meze dishes to share = €15–20

Can I drink the water in Cyprus?

The tap water in the south of Cyprus is fine to drink, but in the north it’s best to stick to filtered (or, when it’s the only option, bottled) water. The high mineral content can upset your stomach if you’re not used to it.

Are credit cards widely accepted in Cyprus?

Most major credit cards are widely accepted in Cyprus. Dinners and Amex may not be accepted.

What is ATM access like in Cyprus?

ATMs are widely available in Cyprus. However, it’s best to carry ample cash with you if you’re travelling to more remote areas in the north.

Is Cyprus a safe destination for LGBTQI-travelers?

Homosexuality is legal in Cyprus, and the country is quite a popular destination among gay travelers. In the north, however, homosexuality was only decriminalized as recently as 2010. LGBTQI travelers should exercise caution when traveling, and be aware that conservative attitudes may still prevail in many areas.

Olta Travel Cyprus

• Good - 6 reviews for Cyprus tours

I arranged to leave the tour one day before the end because the last day was supposed to be a free day. Three days before I left for Cyprus, a new itinerary was sent and the free day was the first day and the Famagusta tour became the last day, so I never got to Famagusta, which was to be the highlight of my trip. No one at the hotel would help me arrange my own trip to Faagusta, and, even though I told the guides that I wanted to go, it wasn't until the last day that Rene said that he called one place, but they were booked. Also, we went to Nicosia on Eid, a Moslem holiday, so everything was closed. The tour shoud have checked this out in advance.

Guide was very knowledgeable but did nothing to gather the group together. The final meeting of the group was a lunch on a day trip. Then we were dropped off at the hotel and the next day was a free day. I I think the tour could use some tweaking with the itinerary.

Destination Services Cyprus

• Excellent - 5 reviews for Cyprus tours

The tour was well paced and showed many of the key historical and archaeological sights of Cyprus. It provided an insight into the history of the country, whish provides some understanding of the culture of the country and demeanour of the people. Well worth it.

Great hotel with half boarding, good guide, good itinerary, good transportation, the services related with the tour were well delivered. Over all we had good experiences, and we felt the tour was a good value. The only complain we had is the communication on line with the Cyprus destination tour company before the tour. It was not clear where to find the downloaded information, our repeated questions were often not answered, such as the name and the location of our first night hotel. Nobody ever informed us about the half boarding with our hotel that caused us missing two dinners at the hotel.

Exodus Travels

• Excellent - 13,244 reviews for Cyprus tours

An excellent week, with a fun group (from different places), an excellent local guide and great weather. The hotel was just fine too! What was the most inspirational moment of your trip? Beautiful views at altitude, looking along the North Cyprus coast What did you think of your group leader? Excellent.....knowledgeable, supportive, informative (and with us most eves.....and when he couldn't be, he recommended very good restaurants) Is there anything else you would like to add? We did two great 10 mile walks on successive days, then much less the rest of the week (we only walked on 4 of 6 days, with two half day walks). For some this wasn't enough. For me, I ccould have done with a lighter day between the two long ones!

An excellent spring break lead by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide. Some very pleasant walks, none too taxing. The mountains were greener than I expected and plenty of wild flowers to see. The views from the castles in the mountains are spectacular. Good evening meals are available in local restaurants, particularly in Bellapais. What was the most inspirational moment of your trip? The views from Buffavento castle and on the walk down. What did you think of your group leader? Ros was excellent. Friendly and helpful. Thorough local knowledge, she seemed to be known by many of the local people. Do you have any advice for potential travellers? The trip notes should make clearer that payment for the optional group trip/meals is better paid in sterling not Turkish lira, otherwise the exchange rate will be poor. It is a long drive to the Karpaz peninsular and if you are not a beach enthusiast, it may be better to make other arrangements for that day. The Apostolos Andreas monastery, included in the Karpaz day, is unfortunately (owing to its state of disrepair) not worth a visit. The optional trip to Salamis and Famagusta is well worth taking. You could easily spend more time in both.The group flight with Pegasus goes via Istanbul and passengers to/from N Cyprus have to stay on the plane for about 1 hour at Istanbul. This is a budget airline and no food or drink is included in the ticket and prices on board are very high. Legroom is poor. Check-in at Stansted was very slow. I would strongly advise on-line check-in for the outward flight. Seats were though allocated. Is there anything else you would like to add? The hotel in Onar village was pleasant, with helpful staff and good views over Kyrenia. Some on the trip had problems with noise from air-conditioning units used all night in adjoining rooms. The breakfasts were good but I would not recommend it for an evening meal. Main issue is that you cannot walk to and from Kyrenia town to the hotel, which is some distance out of town and on the wrong side of the Kyrenia bypass which has no pedestrian route across. Taxis are though readily available.

A lunch at Kyrenia Harbour, a special dinner at Bellapais Abbey and a lunch by the beach at Salamis.

Throughout the millennia the island of Cyprus has been of great political importance and was invaded many times. Romans, Persians, Crusaders and Venetians all left their legacy on the island. Currently divided following the Turkish invasion of 1974 and with numerous failed attempts at reunification Cyprus nevertheless remains one of the Mediterranean’s most popular islands.

The ancient sites of the self-declared Turkish republic of Northern Cyprus include the Roman port of Salamis, the Persian palace of Vouni and Greek Soli. Medieval Cyprus is represented by Crusader castles, a Venetian castle picturesquely situated at the end of the harbour and the pretty ruins of the Abbey of Bellapais.

An included excursion programme visits the ‘classic’ sites in the less developed northern part of the island whilst being comfortably based in your chosen hotel for a seven night stay. Kyrenia town offers a range of restaurants to dine in and sample local specialities such as kofte, kleftiko and borek.

An island in the Mediterranean, Cyprus is both surrounded by other countries’ influence and distinctly its’ own. With an air of Greece’s European flair, the island’s close proximity to Asia and Africa brings an element of exoticism; this medley creates a definitive personality of intrigue and excitement scarcely found in other destinations. Busy, tourist-ridden cities hold an obvious draw of sunshine and built-up hotels. Any Cyprus tour guide would say the nation’s real heartbeat lies in the less-altered, smaller villages; where citrus groves and medieval castles lay with provincial charm. Nearby, honey colored sand and dazzling beaches wait in untouched glory. Regardless of where you journey, take a break with house made Cypriot wine. Known as Commandaria, it is as sweet as it is strong. Dine on culinary specialties of tahini or Halloumi cheese, before shopping for intricate lacework from a Cyprus village or local-made leather goods. This floating country is a wealth of beauty, both in their landscape and their crafts, leaving tourists in love with the serene breeze and shimmering sun-ridden shores.
