Easter in north cyprus

Kyrenia | Trodos | Nicosia | Karpaz peninsula

Friday 15th April: Check in at 1330hrs at Malta International Airport for your direct Emirates Airlines flight to Larnaca departing at 1535hrs. Upon arrival at 1900hrs, a private coach will transfer you to Kyrenia in Northern Cyprus. Check-in at the 5 Star Hotel Acapulco, room allocation and dinner at the hotel. An EnglishSpeaking guide, will meet you upon your arrival and assist you throughout your stay until your departure.

Saturday 16th April: Today, after breakfast, you may join your English-speaking guide for a full day excursion of Kyrenia and its surroundings. Kyrenia has always been governed by the sea and its natural harbour, once coveted by anyone with dreams of empire and was bustling with traders and exporters. Today it’s just as popular with visitors whose only desire is to stroll the seaside strand. Stride up the honey-toned stone ramparts of Kyrenia Castle (entrance included), before heading towards Bellapais monastery (entrance included), the exquisite ruins of this Augustinian monastery. Originally built in the 12th century by monks fleeing Palestine after the fall of Jerusalem, the site remains much as it was in 1976, when the last of the stoic Orthodox faithful had to leave. Some free time for lunch (not included) and after you will head towards St. Hilarion Castle (entrance included). The full fairytale outline of St Hilarion Castle only becomes apparent once you’re directly beneath it. The stone walls and half-ruined buildings blend into the rocky landscape, creating a dreamscape castle plucked from a child’s imagination, complete with hidden rooms, tunnels and

crumbling towers. Rumour has it that Walt Disney drew inspiration from the jagged contours of St Hilarion when he created the animated film Snow White. Return to your hotel for some relaxation, dinner and overnight. Sunday 17th April: After breakfast, we offer you a full day optional excursion to the Trodos Mountains area in the Republic of Cyprus. Home to Mount Olympus, the island’s highest peak, this stunning mountain range provides visitors with a forested flip side to the coastal resorts and big-city glamour. In addition to the natural beauty of the landscape, the Trodos Mountains are home to a variety of postcard-pretty villages with cobbled streets, terraced slopes and vernacular architecture. The region’s peaks and valleys also hide some of the island’s most important medieval frescoed churches, along with unexpected monasteries, including the richest monastery in Cyprus, the Kykkos Monastery. Some free time for lunch (not included) and relaxation and later you will head back to your hotel for dinner and overnight. Monday 18th April: Soon after breakfast, you can join your English-speaking guide for another full day optional excursion, today you will visit Nicosia. Be part of history as you walk through the only divided capital in europe. You will start your walking tour from the old Girne city gate, and walk past the Venetian column towards the Buyuk Ha, an old Caravanserai built by the Ottomans, restored and now filled with arts and crafts shops, which are run by craftsmen/women and artists. The narrow old streets are filled with many small

shops, popular for bargain hunters. You will visit the Selimiye Mosque, one of the best examples of a gothic style cathedral. the covered market hall popular for spices and turkish delight and afterwards you will pass the pedestrian border crossing points of “Lokmaci” or “Ledra Street” in the heart of the walled city, so don’t forget to bring your passports as you will have a few hours’ free time to explore! Return back to your hotel for dinner and overnight. Tuesday 19th April: Today is your last day in beautiful Kyrenia. You may opt for a day of relaxation at the hotel in order to make use of it’s many facilities, some last minute shopping or else you may join our full day excursion to one’s of the island’s last true wilderness, the Karpaz Peninsula awaits you today. A Mediterranean rural idyll of rolling fields, olive groves and remote white-sand beaches licked by shallow turquoise water. Set between a spine of undulating hills, country roads weave between forgotten archaeological sites, ruined churches and sleepy villages up to the thin tapering finger of land at the eastern tip where wild donkeys wander onto the roads and turtles’ nest on dune-backed Golden Beach. (Make sure to bring along your swimming costumes - you might be lucky enough to open up your 2022’s swimming season). Later head back to your hotel for dinner and overnight. Wednesday 20th April: After breakfast and checkout, head towards Larnaca airport for checkin on your Emirates flight back to Malta departing at 1220hrs arriving in Malta at 14:05.
