Embark on a captivating journey across the UN-patrolled border to northern Cyprus, where you will explore some of the region’s most renowned sites.
Our first stop will be the Cultural Centre of Occupied Ammochostos (Famagusta) which was created to host regular presentations and briefings regarding the prevailing ‘Cyprus Problem’, the resulting division of the island following the Turkish invasion of 1974. Binoculars are available for viewing the occupied city of Ammochostos, and there is also a small photographic exhibition.
We then make our way to the Old Town of Famagusta and visit St Nicholas Cathedral which was built around 1298 and 1312. The style of the cathedral is Gothic and follows the architectural plan of the Reims Cathedral in France. We continue to Varosha, once a thriving resort and seaside town, now a ghost town which has sat abandoned since the 1970s. While you're not allowed to enter the fenced-off areas, you can still have a stroll around the area to explore the deserted buildings and rubble, a time capsule of what was once the most glamorous spot in Cyprus.
* Please remember to bring your passport / EU ID on this trip.
