Best day trip! - What a fantastic day out. Eating the most delicious food and drinking copious amounts of alcohol! Such a great way to see the villages, meet the people and support the independent businesses en route. Robert our guide and the driver did a brilliant job and I can't recommend them enough. Thank you for giving us our best day in Cyprus and we can't wait to return!

Exceeded my expectations - Had a great tour today with Robert as our guide. It exceeded my expectations all round. We met lots of passionate, knowledgeable producers/artisans in lovely mountain villages, and also visited a picturesque waterfall and a third century monastery. All products tasted were high-quality - and our lunch and the wines at Linos Winery were outstanding - so many of us came home with culinary delights to share (or keep for ourselves!). Robert kept us moving along while never rushing us, so we packed a lot into the day while giving the “slow food” the time it deserved. He was relaxed and friendly, his enthusiasm and knowledge shining through; and our driver ensured our passage along the twisty mountain roads was safe and comfortable. I would recommend this tour highly (and would happily go again!)

Excellent day out - I really enjoyed this tour. Robert was an excellent, informative and friendly tour guide who is clearly very passionate about his country and all it has to offer. The tour itself was very very varied with a lot of activity covered - halloumi tasting, rose sampling, lunch at a traditional Taverna, wine tasting and a trip to a waterfall/monastery. It didn't feel especially rushed although I would have preferred a bit more time in Omodos village, which was very cute. For the cost, this trip is extremely good value and was a very good day out. Thank you Robert!

Perfect day - I spent a great day with Robert our guide and the 2 other holidaymakers. The trip to the mountains was pleasant and comfortable. The locals met were very friendly ... especially Loula and her husband, of incredible kindness 🥰 The views in the mountains were relaxing, beautiful. Thanks to Robert for his good humor, his smile, all the information received about his country, his region that he loves 🙏 See you next time for a salsa or a bachata 😁

Different - We chose this trip to get away from the usual bus load of 50 plus people. Cheese making was excellent, sausages were just a shop. Rose factory was interesting, but the explanation was a little rushed. Waterfall o.k. Wine tasting best of all. The transport is a people carrier. There were only 4 passengers, and it it was six, then it would have been a bit cramped in. We had an excellent driver/ guide in Tony. Only down side was that one of the other passengers either talked all the time about herself, or was on her phone, so that Tony did not get much opportunity to tell us as much as he wanted to. Overall a different and more interesting tour that the usual ones.
