Day 3 Kyrenia – at Leisure

Today, our optional excursion takes us to the ancient city of Salamis, home to a treasure trove of ruins.

We’ll continue to the medieval walled town of Famagusta. Stroll around the walls and take in sights including the 14th century St Nicholas Cathedral, the Venetian Palace, St Barnabas Monastery, the abandoned quarter of Varosha and the Royal Tombs, which date back to around the 7th century BC.

Day 5 Kyrenia – at Leisure

Our optional excursion today takes us on full day exploration to the very east of the island of Cyprus. We will stop in Yeni Erenkoy where you can visit the Ayios Thyrsos Church which has a very scenic location near the sea. After this we will head on to Dipkarpaz which is a small stop for buying water or carrots for the famous donkeys on the Karpaz peninsula. These wild donkeys have been living on the peninsula for years. They are very tame and friendly, and are also a protected species by law. We will then drive all the way to the end of the peninsula to see the St Apostolos Andres Monastery. There are plenty of wild donkeys here too. We will then start the drive back to the hotel, but will stop at Golden beach which is one of the best in the whole of Cyprus where you can swim. Lunch is included on this excursion.
