Combine a 4X4 tour with a boat trip
Famagusta in the north of Cyprus
Four-hour boat trip with swimming and snorkelling
Was zu erwarten ist
Unlock all the secrets of Cyprus by both land and sea. By road, you'll visit two of the island's most intriguing spots – the old town of Famagusta and the ‘ghost town' of Varosha. Then, by sea, there's time to chill out on a relaxing cruise to the Blue Lagoon.Travelling in an off-road vehicle, your first pit stop is the Famagusta Culture Centre to understand the history of the island. Then, you'll pass through the UN buffer zone to the northern part of the island – pass by Varosha, once a popular beach resort.Afterwards, you'll head to Famagusta old town, where you can explore the Venetian city walls, its collection of church ruins, or the Gothic cathedral turned mosque. Finally, you'll trade exploration for relaxation with a boat cruise to the Blue Lagoon, where there's lunch on board and plenty of time to swim, snorkel or sunbathe.

Fanos the tour guide was EXCELLENT. So knowledgeable & friendly & accommodating. A real credit to the tour. We felt the announcements on the tour could have been better. The lady doing the Polish translation seemed to give a lot of information which wasn’t subsequently provided in English. The music was also extremely repetitive. Food was good.

Our driver and guide, Pandilly, was superb with lots of stories about the area along with very detailed and heart wrenching historical facts about what happened in the 1960’s leading up to the evacuation of the area in 1974. The stop offs at the beach and the cathedral were very poignant and well organised. The boat trip was fantastic with two swim stops in amazing crystal clear waters with a great commentary from the host, George Michael, yes you heard that right!

The 4x4 experience was outstanding! All credit to the driver and his knowledge of Famagusta. The boat trip - food was exceptional. Not enough time for swimming or relaxing though in the sea (20 mins at most) by the time people got sorted with snorkels time was up. The cruise along the coast was exceptional! Absolutely beautiful. The staff on board were ok...Ive been on much more engaging boat trips, where the staff "make it". It would be lovely if some traditional Greek Cypriot music wa playe

The tour guide George Michael absolutely made the trip, he was knowledgeable, funny and kind. The land rover was not the most comfortable experience but worth it for such a wonderful trip. The juxtaposition of old and new buildings was quite remarkable and the boat trip was lots of fun, we would definitely recommend this trip.

Overall the tour was very good but more information about the history would would have been good as we felt this was limited and we had to research it after. We also would have preferred to have walked into the reopened Varosha instead of the old town or beach. Combining Famagusta with a boat trip was the perfect balance for the July heat, allowing you to cool off after a morning of exploring. The boat stops were great, we even got to see some turtles which was amazing. Guides were all fantastic

From the moment we were picked up from the hotel we were looked after. The trip was amazing ! Our guide Johnny had such warmth and humour it was like you were on a day out with family . Would highly recommend this trip . When you enter famagusta , the guides will give you a detailed and personal account of the invasion and it is heartfelt as it is clear they love their country . The boat trip was amazing , welcoming and fun with a delicious lunch and drinks on board .

The guide was good, but the vehicles could benefit from a speaker system so that all passengers could hear the ad-hoc commentary. The vehicles could also benefit from air-conditioning as some passengers refused to open windows beyond a crack because it messed their hair up. A guided tour of Farmagusta would have been nice rather than a 'see you in an hour'. The boat trip was great on a very hot day, food and service was good, and two turtles also made an appearance at the right time.

Guides - lovely group of guys, very knowledgable and passionate about their history The buffet food was always very nice and staff on the boot very friendly Negative - felt a bit strange to walk on to the beach at Famugusta with holiday makers sunbathing there, but I suppose that added to the surreal atmosphere created by the deserted hotels

Our guide was George Michael for this trip, he was so friendly, understanding and easy to talk to. He had lots of information to share on our trip and was constantly checking in with us to make sure I and my husband were comfortable. Famagusta itself was an eye-opener but very interesting although the shop owners were slightly pushy for a sale. travelling in a 4x4 was difficult at times and the staff on the boat were very rude about my weight and the life jackets were ridiculous.

Brilliant tour guides. Tiny was fantastic and enhanced the experience so much. Loved the experience, especially learning from locals. Would have liked more time in Famagusta and stops on the boat that you can spend longer at. Overall, a brilliant day and would recommend to anyone. We loved being in the land drover and being in a group.

I enjoyed everything really. It was a good day out and the boat trip was lovely. Its strange going to the ghost town but fascinating at the same time. The guides were great. Thank you Tasos and Luca and an Austrian guy who I forgot the name of - they were really informative, looked after us and kept the atmosphere going.

Famagusta oli todella mielenkiintoinen ja hyvä. Veneretki ihan Ok ja ruoka veneessä hyvää. Blue Lagoon oli pettymys, toki ilmankaan ei ollut paras mahdollinen, mutta mielestämme kuvat ja todellisuus ei kohdannut. Kilpikonnan näkeminen oli kiva kokemus.

Our excellent tour guide Tusca (apologies if I've misspelled it) told us loads about the history of famagusta and answered all our questions he joined us on the boat tour too along with some of the other drivers Loui and George Michael all were fantastic all the boat staff were brilliant too. Famagusta was a heart wrenching and surreal experience and swimming with turtles was definitely a bucket list moment. This trip was without a doubt the best day of our holiday & I would highly recommend it

Small group in Land Rover made for better experience. Guide was excellent. Famagusta is part of history that needs to be shown - a massive eye opener. Cruise was relaxing & fun with 2 swim stops. Life ring & jackets were available for weaker swimmers. Swimming with turtles was amazing. Meal on boat was great for meat eaters but no alternative for vegetarians, just salad & carbs which was fine but an alternative other than meat would have been good. Would 100% recommend this trip.

The tour was very interesting and our guide Louis was knowledgeable and explained everything throughout the day The highlight was the boat tour although the food on board was extremely poor . The beauty of the sea and cove was amazing. My only criticism is that we should have been in a coach or minibus as the car was extremely uncomfortable with broken seat belts . Overall I did enjoy the day

What a fantastic way to learn more about Cyprus and its history as well as relaxing in the sea. Instead of spending all our time at the beach or pool we decided to choose an excursion that would educate us a little on this wonderful country. Everything, from the tour guide to the 4x4 that collected us from the hotel made this experience feel like a proper adventure. Followed by a relaxing, fun cruise to the blue lagoon where you could swim in the crystal clear Mediterranean Sea. So worth it!

My favourite experience in our time on holiday in Proteras..... Sad in places going through the ghost town in Famagusta and hearing about the invasion and suffering but fascinating to see parts untouched since the bombing in 1974. No photos were allowed but they were inside the walled city, nice to take a stroll round but early in a Sunday morning not many shops were open. The boat trip was fun , drinks reasonably priced and nice lunch. Great guides on both parts of the trip

‘Tiny’ was a great guide. Full of knowledge & humour making everybody’s day worthwhile. Only having 7 people on our jeep was good. The visit to Famugusta was fascinating & very worthwhile. The boat trip was also very good: the staff were very friendly & helpful although I think it helped having our guide onboard the boat. Only slightly disappointing thing was the first part of the boat trip was to ‘see Famugusta’ from another view point but we didn’t get very near it at all. Good overall

This trip is one of the best for variety. You get a glimpse into Famagusta and Varosha as they were left with very educational tour guides, as well as a relaxing boat trip with stunning views! Plus a delicious lunch included. The pickups ad drop-offs are easy. The real stars of this trip are the tour guides, a special thank you to George Michael for his enthusiasm and knowledge! You really made our trip. Would 100% recommend to anyone visiting Protaras, we would love to attend again!

Nowhere did it tell us that we would be picked up in an old Land Rover. We expected an air conditioned mini bus. Nine of us were rammed into the vehicle…..no regard whatsoever for COVID. Our guide was incredibly angry and kept telling us to take pictures and show people at home what Turkey had done, this despite the fact that every hundred metres or so there were signs telling you not to take photos!. We ended up with a very one sided view of the situation. As for the cruise……!

Our tour guide George Michael, was so knowledgeable that he brought the tour to life. He was friendly and happy so great to have as a guide. The part in Famagusta was quite emotional, to see the empty homes left to ruin, so sad. The boat was such a contrast, a lovely time going along the coast in cakm waters. We saw turtles, tuna and other fish. Chance to swim whilst staff watched out for your safety. Such a good atmosphere, I would totally recommend this tour.
