Limassol: Birthplace of Aphrodite & Blue Lagoon Boat Trip

We invite you to visit one of our most popular excursions, which combines two exciting journeys: bus and sea cruise. We will visit the most picturesque and famous corners of the island. On the road from Limassol to Paphos is the unique birthplace of Aphrodite, one of the most picturesque places on the coast of Cyprus. This will be our first stop. According to Greek mythology, it was here that the goddess of love and beauty Aphrodite emerged from the sea foam. Homer called Aphrodite Cypris, the goddess of Cyprus, which is why Cyprus is called the island of love. The modern name of this place - Petra tou Romiou - "Roman Rock" is associated with another legend: the legendary Byzantine warrior Digenis Akritas. Our next place to visit is also connected with the goddess Aphrodite. This is the Akamas Botanical Garden, where the Baths of Aphrodite are located in a cozy corner. The Baths of Aphrodite are sometimes also called the Grotto of Aphrodite. In this oasis, a small botanical garden has been created, which can be seen while walking along the paths. The Baths of Aphrodite are a small natural bath, into which clear water from the springs flows down the stones. The grotto is covered with grape vines, which makes this place even more beautiful. In the port of the village of Latchi, you will have free time for lunch in one of the local taverns, or for a walk along the coast or buying souvenirs, and then we will board a boat that will take us to the Blue Lagoon. The Blue Lagoon is one of the most beautiful places for swimming in Cyprus. This place got its name from the extremely clear blue water, through which the underwater world is clearly visible. On the way to the Blue Lagoon, you will enjoy a beautiful view of the Akamas coastline, see the church of St. George and learn its history, admire the beautiful natural sea caves of Manolis Bay. In the azure and crystal waters of the lagoon, you can swim, snorkeling or ride a water slide, as well as relax in the shade on the deck of the boat. At this time, the captain will offer you a pleasant gift (wine, seasonal fruits and juice). The trip and swimming in the Blue Lagoon will leave you with pleasant memories for many years. After the boat cruise, we begin our journey back to Limassol.

Fantastic - most suitable word for this trip. Our guide Christina was wonderful , lovely person, with uncountable histories about Cyprus, it’s culture and history. Besides rainy weather this trip was amazing. Wineries, villages we’ve passed by, tavern for lunch are so cozy and peaceful (out of high season). And taste of local wine and food is unbelievable and unforgettable. We greatly appreciate your work, local traditions and Cyprus appearance. Thank you from O and M

I liked the combination of adrenaline (e.g. when overcoming steep slopes) with moments of relaxation in a traditional tavern. The Troodos Mountains showed a completely different face of Cyprus - green, mysterious and full of contrasts. For whom? For lovers of nature, adrenaline and culture. Even families with children will find something for themselves here! Rating: 5/5 - I recommend it to anyone who wants to discover the true heart of Cyprus!

An excellent day trip. A great way to get out and see Cyprus if you aren’t hiring a car. Michalis is a great guide and a safe and confident driver. Multiple stops along the way and on the way back, so got to see a lot, from the peak of Troodos to Petra tou Romiou. I was a solo traveller and felt very safe and really enjoyed the day. Strongly recommend to anyone considering a day trip. Thank you Michalis.

We had really good day visiting the Troodos mountains and villages along the way to the mountain peak . Our guide Michalis was punctual and very knowledgable . He told us some interesting facts about the village life in the mountains . We stopped for lunch in restaurant with beautiful views of. Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone considering visiting the Troodos mountains .
