Tour DescriptionCyprus is well known for its blue skies and sunshine but it’s a whole different world in the winter months in the Troodos mountains. The lush mountains at the heart of the island are transformed into a magical wonderland first with the gold shades of autumn and then with a dusting of pure white snow on the peaks in winter.
We begin our adventure with a stop at a very special village for coffee at a traditional Cypriot coffee shop, the "Kafenio". We then take some exciting off-road tracks to some of the highest peaks of Troodos, where hopefully we will see a sprinkle of snow. The highlights of our journey include a visit to one of the Islands many ancient Monasteries. Here we can admire the religious decorations, icons and frescoes and enjoy a short stroll around the sacred grounds. We will also make a stop at the tiny village of Fikardou. This entire village is protected by UNESCO and is believed to date back to the 5th century. It retains many of it's medieval characteristics. Twenty years ago the village was almost entirely abandoned but in recent years a few individuals have chosen to make their home here for it's rare beauty and tranquility. The tour continues to one of the most beautiful man made lakes in Cyprus. The views of the lake and dam with the steep mountain sides are breathtaking. Our final stop is the most famous Cypriot village, Lefkara, where you will observe some of our most precious and forgotten traditions. See some of the most amazing silver filigree jewelery and the most unique lacework "Lefkarito" being made by the local women. Shop for handcrafts in the tiny stores or just enjoy strolling the atmospheric cobbled streets lined with authentic style stone houses.
