    Great staff, bus on time, cold water to buy was a great idea! The farmagusta bit was a bit disappointing though, we only really saw 2 buildings which had been hit in the conflict. But overall an enjoyable HOT ?? day

    Picked up on time the guide introduced herself and the driver Hayley and Gary. Talked us through all safety aspects while on the bus also gave us information on other tours that we might be interested in. Overall experience was really good and gave out plenty of details of all the places we drove past and stopped at. Would definitely recommend this tour as we had two good stops as well.

    The tour was very good and fascinating! The tour mainly explored the history of Famagusta; this tour DOES NOT go into the abandoned city of Varosha which is what myself and some others on the trip expected. If you want to go into Varosha we would recommend the “Varosha” tour instead/ in addition to this one. This tour is fantastic if you want to do some shopping in Famagusta and get good deals as everything is extremely cheap.
