Helen – United Kingdom

Sofia our guide was welcoming and was very knowledgeable regarding all aspects of the tour. The mosaics and Roman ruins were amazing. The wine tasting and tour was lovely. I would have wanted more time in Limassol maybe 2.5 hrs not the 2 we had. Stopped off at birth place of Aphrodite which was also nice. Air con was fine on the mini bus- driver Adamios was also great- would recommend.

Rucsandra – Romania

Sophia is a great guide, funny, knowledgable, very organized. Also the driver, Adamos, was one of the best - he also knows a lot about Cyprus's history, unfortunately we didn't have the opportunity of a lenghty talk with him. The schedule is a bit tight, at Kourion the trip was shorten by a sudden rain and Limassol should be explored more than two hours, but it is was it is. The wine tasting was an amazing experience as well, not just because of the wine, but its presentation and the tour guide of the wine museum. All in one, it was an amazing trip which I highly recommend.
