The Mediterranean island of Cyprus boasts a rich prehistoric, classical, and medieval heritage. Recent research indicates that the earliest human occupation of the island dates back over 10,000 years. Over the millennia, the Cypriot people have cultivated their own unique artefacts, architecture, art and culture. With its mild spring weather, Cyprus is an ideal destination to escape the cooler climates at home, offering a comfortable environment for exploration and discovery. Key highlights include three UNESCO World Heritage sites: Khirokitia, the Archaeological Park and the Tomb of the Kings in Paphos. Additionally, visitors can explore numerous other fascinating locations, such as the legendary site where the newborn goddess Aphrodite is said to have emerged from the sea in her shell – a scene famously depicted by classical painters.

Beautiful Cyprus, traditionally the birthplace of the Goddess of love, Aphrodite, has attracted many unwanted suitors over the years. With the lovely harbour of Kyrenia serving as our base, we enjoy a leisurely tour of the archaeological sites of the north of the island, from the ancient port city of Soli with its impressive Roman mosaics to the medieval fortress of St Hilarion, perched dramatically on the Kyrenia mountain range. The landscape itself tells the story of successive civilisations all set against the backdrop of the Mediterranean's azure waters and the rugged beauty of the northern Cypriot coast.
