Great Day Out
Enjoyable full day visiting rural west Cyprus. Wine excellent - specially Tsangarides Winery plus special experience at the olive oil farm. Reno was a great host and driver and pick up was from your hotel / apartment.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review and for sharing your experience with us! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It was a real pleasure having you on our Paphos Hills Wine Tour and showing you the beautiful countryside of western Cyprus. I'm delighted that you enjoyed the wines, especially at Tsangarides Winery, and that the olive oil farm was such a memorable experience. These authentic local places are exactly what makes Cyprus so special! Thank you also for your kind words about me as your host and driver. They truly mean a lot, especially to our small family-run business. We hope to welcome you back to Cyprus one day for another wonderful adventure, with more beautiful scenery, local traditions, and, of course, excellent Cypriot wines! 🍷🇨🇾 Warm wishes, Reno

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely fantastic day in the Paphos Hills
We had an incredible experience on this tour — easily one of the highlights of our trip. The itinerary itself is already brilliant, but what made the day truly special was how relaxed, personal, and well‑paced everything felt. Our guide and driver was outstanding: friendly, knowledgeable, and effortlessly chilled. He created such a comfortable atmosphere throughout the day, and his passion for the region really came through in every stop and story. Although the tour already includes beautiful wineries and scenic viewpoints, we were treated to a wonderful detour — a visit to a Halloumi factory where we enjoyed lunch, learned about traditional Halloumi‑making, and tasted freshly prepared cheese. It was such an authentic, unexpected addition and ended up being one of our favourite parts of the day. Every winery we visited offered amazing views, generous tastings, and genuinely lovely hosts. The tasting fees were very reasonable, and the wines themselves were excellent. We ended up picking up a bottle or two (and a few souvenirs!) at almost every stop, but there was absolutely zero pressure to buy — just friendly conversations and great wine. The whole day felt beautifully balanced: scenic drives, delicious food, relaxed tastings, and plenty of time to enjoy each location without ever feeling rushed. If you’re looking for a chilled, authentic, and memorable way to explore the Paphos hills, this tour is perfect. Highly recommended.
Response from the operator: Dear Roxanne, Wow… thank you so much for such a thoughtful and beautifully written review. Reading your words truly made my day. I'm delighted that you enjoyed not only the wineries and the stunning scenery of the Paphos hills, but also the relaxed pace and personal atmosphere that I always try to create for my guests. Knowing that the visit to the Halloumi farm became one of your favourite memories is especially rewarding—it’s these authentic local experiences that make Cyprus so unique. Thank you for mentioning the warm hospitality of our winery partners and for appreciating that there is never any pressure to purchase, only an opportunity to enjoy the wines, meet passionate local producers, and experience the true spirit of Cyprus. It was an absolute pleasure spending the day with you, and your kind recommendation means more than you know. I sincerely hope to welcome you back one day and share even more hidden gems, traditions, and unforgettable moments with you. Warmest regards, Reno G

Organized, complete and experienced
We booked the trip a week ago. Elena and Reno were very willing to help in whatever we asked and always available and direct in communication. The whole experience was fantastic, very full and very organized. Even when we asked for a change in the program Elena, our guide very willingly adapted it and even took us for closing in a place that was not arranged from the beginning adding even more to the experience. We stayed very happy and felt very full all the way! If you are looking for organization and experience in wine tours you are at the right people! Elena thank you very much for everything!

An unforgettable winery tour in Cyprus
My husband and I had a fantastic day on this winery tour in Cyprus and couldn’t recommend it highly enough. From the very start, everything was seamless — all arrangements were made easily by email, and we were collected right on time from our hotel in Limassol. Our guide, Reno, was absolutely excellent: extremely knowledgeable, warm, and genuinely friendly. The itinerary was perfectly planned, but what really stood out was how flexible Reno was. He was more than happy to adapt the day to suit our preferences and even adjusted the route to accommodate the changeable weather, ensuring we had the best possible views of the beautiful Cypriot landscape. The three wineries we visited were all excellent and offered a great variety of wines, and the stop at the olive farm was a wonderful addition to the day. Each location felt well chosen and never rushed. To end the tour, Reno suggested a final stop at Aphrodite’s Beach to watch the sunset — a truly magical and memorable way to finish a thoroughly enjoyable day. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cyprus and would absolutely book another tour with Reno in the future. An outstanding experience from start to finish!
Response from the operator: Dear Sarah and James, Thank you very much for your kind and thoughtful review. We are truly delighted to hear that you and your husband had such a fantastic day with us and that everything—from the initial communication to the hotel pickup in Limassol—was smooth and enjoyable. Reno will be especially pleased to read your words. He takes great pride in sharing his knowledge, adapting each tour to guests’ interests, and making sure the day flows comfortably, even when weather conditions change. We’re glad this flexibility helped you enjoy the scenery and each stop to the fullest. It’s wonderful to know that you enjoyed the variety of wineries, the olive farm visit, and that the day ended on such a memorable note at Aphrodite’s Beach. Moments like that sunset are exactly what we hope our guests will remember long after their trip. Thank you again for your recommendation and your trust. We would be delighted to welcome you back for another tour in the future. Warm regards, Cyprus Winery Tours Team

Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paphos.
How much does Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery cost?
+
Prices start at $126 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Paphos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Paphos is not rushed.
Is Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Paphos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Paphos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Paphos and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Paphos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Paphos?
+
On Outty we rank every Paphos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Blue Lagoon Cruise with Sightseeing from Latchi Harbour, Troodos Mountains Villages: All Inclusive Food & Wine Day Tour, Wave Dancer Half Day BBQ Cruise - All Inclusive. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Paphos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Paphos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Paphos Hills Wine Tour: 3 Wineries, Olive Oil Farm & Monastery?
