Begin your full-day journey through Cyprus history with a walking tour of Nicosia, the last divided capital in Europe. Explore the Old Town inside the Venetian walls, and stroll along Ledra Street, a lively pedestrian street leading to the Green Line crossing.
Visit the Selimiye Mosque, a stunning Gothic cathedral converted into a mosque, blending two eras of architecture. Then, head to Büyük Han, a beautifully preserved Ottoman caravanserai with artisan shops, galleries, and cafés.
Next, travel to Northern Cyprus and visit St. Hilarion Castle, one of the most iconic castles in Cyprus. Rising dramatically above the mountains, the castle offers panoramic views over the coastline and is often linked with legends and fairy-tale inspiration.
Finally, visit Bellapais, a peaceful medieval abbey village with Gothic ruins, narrow stone streets, and one of the most romantic viewpoints on the island.
