Uncover the rich cultural heritage of Cyprus on this immersive journey through history, traditional craftsmanship, and local flavors. From a UNESCO-listed Neolithic settlement to hands-on basket weaving, rural village life, and wine tasting at a family-run winery, this tour is a perfect blend of history, culture, and authentic Cypriot hospitality.

Your day begins with a visit to Choirokoitia, one of the best-preserved Neolithic settlements in the Eastern Mediterranean and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Walk through ancient stone dwellings, reconstructed to showcase the daily life of Cyprus’ earliest inhabitants. Learn how these prehistoric communities lived, farmed, and built their circular homes, offering a rare glimpse into human civilization dating back over 9,000 years.

From history to tradition, the next stop is the Basket Weaving Museum, where you’ll step into Cyprus’ rural past and discover the art of traditional basket weaving. The museum showcases a variety of handwoven baskets, tools, and intricate designs passed down through generations. Under the guidance of skilled artisans, you’ll even get to try your hand at weaving, experiencing firsthand this age-old craft. Afterward, relax with a refreshing homemade lemonade or Cypriot coffee, paired with a traditional spoon sweet, a delicious local treat.

Next, visit the Kato Drys Museum, a beautifully preserved village home that offers a fascinating look into rural Cypriot life. Wander through rooms filled with traditional tools, antique furniture, local costumes, and household items, each telling a story of village traditions, winemaking, and agricultural heritage. Your guide will share how generations of Cypriots lived and worked, keeping their traditions alive through craftsmanship, farming, and community spirit.

A true taste of Cyprus awaits at the Christoudia Winery, a family-run estate dedicated to preserving authentic Cypriot winemaking. Enjoy a guided tour of the winery, learning about both traditional and modern winemaking techniques. Walk through the vineyards and cellars, then sample two locally produced wines, appreciating the unique flavors and aromas that make Cypriot wine so special.

For those who wish to savor more local flavors, the journey continues to Zygi, a charming coastal village renowned for its fresh seafood and picturesque harbor. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy an optional traditional Cypriot lunch at a seaside tavern.
