Sample the Cypriot lifestyle with this evening experience. In the countryside surrounds of a donkey sanctuary, you'll get hands-on in halloumi-making and bread baking and tuck into the tasty results. Then, when the sun sets, you'll dine on a feast of local dishes with free-flowing drinks, followed by live music and Greek dancing under the stars.

Guide was really good. A lot on offer on the tour for everyone. Enjoyed the interactivity such as the dancing and food tasting. Meal included was good. Overall one of the best excursions we have been on with TUI.

Was a good introduction to Cyprus and some of its traditions, food, dancing (which was good fun) and its history, and history involving donkeys and actual examples of their use. The traditional Cyprus food was nice as were the hosts. We watched and made bread and cheese, which were then cooked and served with the meal

Vi skulle på en udflugt til en æselfarm, og skulle samles op ved et hotel. Problemet var, at hotellet ********** ikke fandtes, men stod på Google. Meget underligt. I lufthavnen på vej hjem, var der problemer med vores boardingpas. Vi kunne godt have brugt en guide til at hjælpe der, men vi så ingen.

The donkey sanctuary was lovely and the baby only born the day before was adorable. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The greek dancing was amazing and everyone joined in. Food good and good company. A thoroughly enjoyable experience would recommend

Beautiful hotel, very clean with all amenities required. Appeared lacking in good entertainment for adults. Children 's..day entertainment very good, evening a bit ameriturish.

Thought the experience was very good as we didn’t know what to expect.
