1 / 10This cultural tours is one of the standout things to do in Paphos, Cyprus. Rated 4.0/5 by 3 travellers, it combines the highlights below into a single, easy-to-book experience from €69 per person. Flamingo lakes, a mosque that changed history, a saint who cheated death, and a border that still divides a capital — no other day trip in Cyprus tells a bigger story.
Journey into two of Cyprus' most fascinating and culturally rich cities on this full-day tour from Paphos — a captivating blend of sacred shrines, ancient churches, and the last divided capital in Europe.
Your first stop is the serene Hala Sultan Tekke — one of the most significant Islamic shrines in the world, beautifully situated on the shores of the stunning Larnaca Salt Lake, dedicated to Umm Haram, a relative of the Prophet Mohammed. A place where profound spiritual significance and breathtaking natural beauty exist in perfect harmony.
Next, explore the magnificent Church of St. Lazarus — a stunning 9th-century Byzantine masterpiece home to the sacred relics of St. Lazarus, attracting pilgrims from around the world. Stroll along the charming Larnaca promenade and soak up the peaceful coastal atmosphere.
The grand finale awaits in Nicosia — the last divided capital in Europe. Enjoy free time to walk vibrant Ledra Street, cross the iconic Green Line, and step into the extraordinary blend of Greek and Turkish Cypriot culture that makes this city truly unique.
Paphos is rewarding year-round, but spring and early autumn typically bring the most comfortable temperatures and thinner crowds than peak summer. Morning departures tend to be quieter and cooler; booking ahead is recommended in high season as popular cultural tours slots in Paphos sell out.
