Acércate a descubrir las ruinas del norte de Chipre, algunas antiguas, otras modernas, con esta excursión guiada de día completo que te llevará a visitar en exclusiva el pueblo fantasma de Famagusta y los restos del Reino de Salamis, de época clásica.
La antigua ciudad romana de Salamis constituye el yacimiento arqueológico más importante de Chipre; cubre un área impresionante y de gran extensión, bañada por las costas del Mediterráneo que adornan el horizonte fabulosamente. Un guía local cualificado te llevará a ver las principales excavaciones, entre ellas el impresionante anfiteatro al aire libre, el gimnasio, los baños y el teatro. Todas han sido objeto de un meticuloso proceso de restauración.
Seguiremos el viaje hasta llegar a la vieja ciudad de Famagusta, lugar en el que el tiempo parece haberse detenido desde la invasión turca ocurrida en 1974. Esta antigua ciudad está rodeada de fortificaciones venecianas muy bien preservadas, algunas de las más vistosas al este del Mediterráneo. Existe una abundancia de construcciones medievales y renacentistas que pueden visitarse; muchas de ellas muestran marcas imborrables del asedio otomano de 1571. Visitaremos la ciudadela, también conocida como Torre de Otelo, la Catedral de San Nicolás (convertida en mezquita tras la conquista otomana), y la Iglesia de San Jorge, muy aclamada por sus frescos. Luego pasearemos por la parte vieja de la ciudad, en la cual hay algo que ver prácticamente en cada esquina. No faltará tiempo para el relax, para disfrutar del sol o incluso darse un baño en el Mediterráneo, y no menos interesante, para alzar la vista sobre las barreras y contemplar el barrio de Varosha frente al mar, que ha sido acordonado y abandonado.
Esta excursión de día completo incluye la recogida y vuelta al hotel, los transfers, el almuerzo, los impuestos fronterizos, el precio de todas las entradas y los servicios a lo largo de toda la jornada de un guía de habla inglesa. Los ciudadanos de la Unión Europea necesitarán pasaporte para poder cruzar a la República Turca del Norte de Chipre.
Join us on our half day afternoon trip to meet this family and their Microbrewery. They simply love beer!! Their goal is to brew the best beer possible, using only natural ingredients and respecting the traditional art of brewing. Throughout their trips to Europe, they visited numerous specialized brew pubs and enjoyed amazing beer.
When Cyprus joined the European Union in 2004, they were happy to see that many of the foreign beers they loved started being imported to the island. Finally more quality and tasty beer options would be introduced to Cyprus. Unfortunately, they soon found out that something was terribly wrong. The beer they tasted and loved throughout Europe, just didn’t taste the same. That is when they realized that it was up to them to get the job done. In 2008 the family decided they would not tolerate living in a beer desert any more. Prime Microbrewery was conceived. After going through a few obstacles, they managed to open their own brewery and share their passion for quality beer with the rest of the island. It was a long and hard voyage and you get the chance to see and taste the result.

Nicosia, the last divided capital of Europe offers something for everybody. The city is very diverse and interesting. In the partially car-free old town within the Venetian walls, there are many modern shops to browse around.
With its extensive collection, including archaeological discoveries, costumes, photographs, medieval pottery, maps, engravings, jewellery and furniture, the Leventis Municipal Museum is well worth a visit. Visit St. John's Cathedral, where you will be amazed by the beautiful interior which contrasts dramatically with the modest exterior building, after which you have some free time.
Take advantage of free time for lunch (not included) and to explore the old town before our German-speaking guide will also show you the mysterious north of the city. The Ayia Sofia Cathedral is the Selimiye Mosque today. Please remember to include your passport or identity card, otherwise you cannot walk across the border.
