Cyprus Myth, History & Wine Experience from Paphos

Spend a day discovering some of Cyprus’ most iconic landscapes, ancient monuments, and traditional wine culture on this relaxed full-day tour. From legendary coastal views to charming mountain villages, this journey combines mythology, archaeology, and authentic local flavors.

Your day begins with a visit to Petra tou Romiou, better known as Aphrodite’s Rock, one of the most photographed locations on the island. According to Greek mythology, this is the spot where the goddess of love and beauty emerged from the sea. Take time to admire the dramatic coastline and capture photos of this legendary landmark.

Continuing along the coast, you will arrive at the impressive Kourion Archaeological Park, one of the most important ancient sites in Cyprus. Here you will explore the remains of a once-powerful Greco-Roman city overlooking the Mediterranean. Walk through the Roman baths and admire the spectacular amphitheatre, which is still used today for concerts and cultural events thanks to its remarkable acoustics and breathtaking setting.

The journey continues to the medieval Kolossi Castle, a former Crusader stronghold built in the 12th century. This well-preserved fortress is closely linked with the production of Commandaria, the historic Cypriot dessert wine said to have been a favorite of Richard the Lionheart.

Next, travel inland to the picturesque wine village of Omodos, nestled among the vineyards of the Troodos foothills. Stroll through its narrow cobbled streets on a guided walk and visit the historic Timios Stavros Monastery, one of the island’s oldest and most significant religious sites. Afterwards, enjoy free time to explore the village square, browse local craft shops, or relax with lunch at a traditional taverna.

The experience concludes with a visit to a local winery in the region, where you will learn about Cyprus’ long winemaking tradition and sample a selection of regional wines during a guided tasting.

With a perfect blend of scenery, history, culture, and wine, this tour offers a memorable introduction to the heart of Cyprus.
