Northern Cyprus 4x4 tour

4.3/5
31 reviews

This popular full-day 4x4 tour will take you into the northern part of Cyprus. You'll visit intriguing spots, including the ancient city of Salamis and the old town of Famagusta, as well as passing by the ‘ghost town' of Varosha.

Your journey into the past starts with a photo stop at Deryneia before you'll pass through the UN buffer zone to the northern part of the island. Pass by Varosha, once a popular beach resort and now a 1970's time capsule. Then you'll have free time to explore Famagusta and see the main sights, including the Venetian castle and the Gothic cathedral turned mosque.

Your journey continues to the ancient site of Salamis. You'll have time to explore its ancient roads and ruined temples as well as the partially restored amphitheatre. There's also time to find a spot to grab some lunch before visiting the tomb of St. Barnabas, the patron saint of Cyprus.

    I only give a 9/10 for the guide/staff, because his English was hard to understand. Apart from this he was very good and friendly. The overall trip was very interesting, and I would definitely recommend everyone who visits Cyprus to do this tour. Please update the description, that a passport is needed for this trip.

    Der Guide war äußerst nett, konnte viel erzählen und hat und einiges gezeigt. Was allerdings nicht gut war, war der Service von Tui sodass wir den Ausflug fast verpasst hätten.

    Det er ikke så rart at sidde på de to bænke bagi med tre personer i hver side. Man har liiiidt svært ved at se. Selv om chaufføren opfordrede til at man skulle skifte plads med hinanden - men det skete ikke rigtig

    Unser Guide Fanos hat uns auf beiden Touren mit wertvollen Informetionen versorgt, er ist lustig, hilfsbereit und sehr kompetent und man spürt, daß er seinen Job mit Herzblut ausübt! Die Stopps waren klasse. Lediglich das Essen während der Bergdörfertour war etwas enttäuschend, weil es authentischer sein sollte. Mezze in einem stylischen Lokal, serviert von asiatische. Personal, das schon abgeräumt hat während noch gegessen wurde, mit amerikanischer Popmusikbeschallung ist nicht zypriotisch!

    First off, my husband and I are in our late 50’s & early 60’s. The Jeep seated 11 including the driver/guide. It was very cramped and not the most comfortable of rides, however I realise we were in a jeep! If you are tall, like we are, you will not see much out of the windows as the way the vehicle is designed you are above window level. Famagusta was incredibly interesting and the guides were excellent in telling us the history and stories of the time before the invasion.

    Bei 65€ für die Tour sollte der Eintrittspreis für diebl Archäologische Stätte schon bei sein. Vorallem kostet der Eintritt derzeit 50 türkische Lira. Und du kannst diese entweder in Bar mit türkische Lira zahlen oder mit Karte. Nur zahlt man da a) noch Gebühren und b) funktionieren nicht alle Karten. Meine und auch von einem anderen der Gruppe ging nämlich die Karte nicht. Zum Glück hat uns jemand ausgeholfen und mit seiner Karte bezahlt. Aber das ist ja nicht selbstverständlich.
