Select participants and date
You step out of Larnaca International into a wind that smells faintly of salt and citrus. A driver waits with a name card; within an hour you’re threading through the wide boulevards of Nicosia, where stone walls raise their shadow like a slow-moving history lesson. Over six days this private tour turns the island into a compact atlas: Venetian ramparts, Byzantine monasteries, a fairy-tale mountain castle, Roman mosaics and a salt lake that stages a seasonal miracle of pink feathers.
