Dear Visitors, WELCOME TO CYPRUS I come from Famagusta (in Greek Ammochostos) and since the Turkish Invation I live in Nicosia (in Greek Lefkosia). I studied Oceanography at the University of Hamburg (F. R. Germany) but since 2006 I am a freelance licensed tourist guide, guiding in German, English and Greek. If you are visiting Cyprus alone, or along with your family and friends, it will be a pleasure for me to welcome you to my country and show you around the island. Pls have a look at my tour list! If none of them fits your requirements, I can offer you a tailor-made tour. We can walk through Nicosia, the last divided capital in Europe, travel to the medieval Famagusta, or visit together the castles at the Keryneia district, the Pafos Mosaics, the Byzantine Churches in the Troodos mountains, the ruins of Salamis and Kourion, and many other venues. You only need to contact me, giving me 8 days notice and I will organize your tour for you, including transport together with everything that is required. See you soon! Licenced Tourist Guide by CTO In Cyprus it is a Criminal Offence for a guide to drive passengers with a private or a rental car when the guide is driving. The tourists are not covered by insurance. It is ok if a tourist is driving the rental car or we have a driver.

We start from Limassol (Lemesos) and visit the ancient site of Kourion with a Hellenistic theatre, and a villa with mosaics on the floor. The city of Kourion was flourishing during the ancient Greek and Roman Period. It was destroyed by 7 successive earthquakes in the 4th century AD. We also visit the Sanctuary of Apollon Ylatis nearby with the roman baths and the Greek Palaistra (ring). Then we visit the Kolossi Castle, where Richard the Lionheart and the Byzantine Governor of Cyprus Isaakios Kominos signed the subordination agreement for Cyprus. The area of Kolossi is also famous for its Commandaria wine, a sweet wine known as the King of Wines or the Wine of the Kings, first produced by the Knight Templars. We then drive to Ayios Amvrosios where we have wine tasting and lunch at the winery. Our tour is then finished and we come back to our starting venue. Being and educated (and licensed) tourist guide I will give you a deep insight of the rich history of the area.
