This popular full day tour by 4x4 will take you into the occupied northern part of Cyprus. Visit intriguing spots, including the ancient city of Salamis and the old town of Famagusta, and cast your eyes over the ‘ghost town' of Varosha.
Your journey into the past starts with a photo stop at Deryneia before crossing the checkpoint into northern Cyprus. From here, you'll gaze out over the haunting sight of Varosha, a once popular beach resort abandoned since the Turkish invasion more than 40 years ago. Then you'll have free time to explore Famagusta and see the main sights, including the Venetian castle and the Gothic cathedral turned mosque.
Your journey will then continue to the ancient site of Salamis. Explore its ancient roads and ruined temples as well as the partially restored amphitheatre. You can also have lunch near the site before visiting the tomb of St Barnabas, the patron saint of Cyprus.

Caledonia Waterfalls Tour with Local Guide and Lunch
Trade the beach for the cool, shaded vibes of the Troodos Mountains – where nature's about to blow your mind. We're talking a three-kilometre hike, leading you to Caledonia Falls, one of Cyprus's tallest and most beautiful waterfalls, before heading to the village of Platres for a tasty, traditional lunch. Andi, one of our expert local guides, says, "You'll love the hike as much as the destination – it's like stepping into a fairytale, with cute little bridges crisscrossing along the stream all the way to the waterfall." But first, you'll kick things off at Kolossi Fruit Garden. Think juicy fruit and zesty lemonade to get you prepped for the adventure ahead. As you wind through the forest, the bubbling Kryos Potamos stream keeps you company – it's the perfect backdrop for those Insta-gold pics, almost like the Greek Gods are keeping tabs on you. You'll delve deeper along the forest nature tail, among old pines and strawberry trees, until reaching the showstopper – Caldonia Falls. Here, you can dip your toes in the shaded freshwater pool, snap some pics, and soak up the magic. The falls were named by a Scottish expedition in 1878, who were so wowed by how much it reminded them of home, they named it after Caledonia, the Roman name for Scotland. Afterwards, you'll head to Psilo Dendro, in Platres, for a well-deserved lunch. With its own trout farm, the fish here is as fresh as it gets – the perfect way to wrap up your mountain adventure.
