Day Trip: Kourion Ancient Theatre, Kolossi Castle and Cyprus Villages from Paphos Town

Rural Cyprus is at your fingertips on this whistle stop tour. The morning kicks off between 08.00 - 08.45 with a pickup from your hotel in Paphos. You will then go to Kourion – one of the most impressive archaeological sites on the island. It’s classic Greco-Roman, with a half-moon of seats facing out to sea.

Kolossi Castle is the next stop. This Crusader-era castle is surrounded by flowering plants and a pretty courtyard. Lunch will be at a traditional taverna in the next village, Apsiou.

Next, you will head for the mountain-ringed village of Omodos, where you will have free time to wander its skinny streets and Byzantine buildings.
