Hidden Secrets of Northern Cyprus

Savour rest and relaxation, and step back in time, as you unveil the beautiful, unspoiled north of Aphrodite’s Isle.

Bellapais Abbey

Delightful Kyrenia, one of the Mediterranean’s most alluring locations, is set against a backdrop of rugged hills and fringed by deep blue waters. Lift the veil on a historic region, dotted with the relics of the various civilisations that have graced this idyllic island in the sun.

Kyrenia

With accommodation in a choice of hotels close to the pretty port of Kyrenia, this holiday takes in the town’s natural, horseshoe-shaped harbour, flanked by shops and cafés, all watched over by an imposing medieval castle, with its fascinating shipwreck museum. You’ll also discover nearby mountain-top St Hilarion Castle and idyllic Bellapais, former home to writer Lawrence Durrell, and divided island capital Nicosia. An included tour of the island’s east coast explores ancient St Barnabas Monastery, Salamis’ Roman ruins and Famagusta’s ruined churches. Enjoy optional excursions to Guzelyurt, Soli, the Green Line border town Lefkel, and the Karpaz peninsula. our product manager loves...
