Learn all about Cyprus' fascinating history on this trip to Paphos and Kourion, one of the main Greco-Roman sites in the south of the island.
Paphos Trip
We'll pick you up from your hotel in Ayia Napa between 7:30 am and 7:55 am. After an hour and a half's drive through the south of Cyprus, we'll arrive at the Kourion archaeological site (entrance fee not included), one of the island's main Greco-Roman sites.
Our tour of the ancient city will begin at the Kourion Theatre. Do you know what stage performances were like in the Greek era of Cyprus? Delving deeper into this historical period we'll admire the beautiful mosaics in the House of Eustolios, which belonged to a wealthy noble family in the 5th century AD.
Following the road that runs alongside Episkopi Bay, we'll then arrive at the coastal city of Paphos, with the House of Dionysus among its most impressive monuments. We'll visit this magnificent historic house so you get the chance to see its extraordinary collection of mosaics (entrance fee not included). Then from here we'll head to Paphos Harbour, where you'll have an hour of free time.
In the afternoon we'll go to Geroskipou, a village near Paphos famous for its pastry. Our last stop will be at the Petra Tou Romiou, or Aphrodite's Rock. Do you know about the mythological legend linked to this rock? At the end of the day, we'll make our way back to the hotels in Ayia Napa.
