My wife and I took this tour as a cruise shore excursion booked through Viator and it was fabulous! Our guide, Anna, was exceptional and made us feel like she had known us for quite awhile. She met us promptly on time at the cruise port and gave us a quick overview of what to expect on our 4.5 hour tour of two wineries, a small mountain village and a coffee stop with snacks. She then provided us an incredible 7-hour day trip into the Cyprus mountain region. We visited two local wineries, Ayia Mavri and Linos, where the owners provided an informative VIP experience. In addition to tasting great wines, we learned about the history of wine making in Cyprus. Anna also provided local enrichment as we walked through a mountain village and interacted with shop keepers...no hard sell anywhere, just helpful merchants. The coffee shop experience and local charcuterie board was delightful. If you are looking for a unique, enjoyable tour in Cyprus, this is one you must consider!Mark_M

We visited Ayia Mavri Winery, where the aged 'boss' was a mine of information, and so proud of his family's wines. At Linos Winery, too, we were given an interesting talk about the blue (yes!) wine. There was a visit to Omodos village (fantastic bakery, which makes wonderfully-flavoured sweet nuts, amongst other things), where we had a tour, and some lunch. There was also a short stop at a waterfall. Above all, our guide, Irini, was superb, making the small group trip an absolute pleasure. We actually had around 6 hours with her. I would recommend her, and the overall experience, completely.faizeli2017

My expectations were met, and exceeded. Our local guide, Irene, was wonderful. She was knowledgeable, personable, warm, witty and hospitable. The administration exemplified a high standard to which every service provider should aspire - Louisa was always prompt, most informative, ever helpful and magically efficient. Thank you to both of them for a lovely and insightful experience which both my children - aged 10 and 12 - and I, thoroughly enjoyed.NizarZ9

We booked this online and received confirmation. Theodora picked us up on time from hotel and we had a great day in small villages with wine tasting and great views with nice snack and chance to stroll around quaint village shops. Visited two great wineries. Would definitely recommend. Trip was just long enough and we were returned to hotel on time with a nice gift. You can buy wines from either winery for excellent prices … about 10 euros. Must try the BLUE WINE!AlenaSidi
