Two amazing days
We had the pleasure of spending two fantastic days exploring Cyprus with Andreas, and we honestly couldn't recommend him highly enough. Before our first tour, I had quite a few questions, and Andreas was incredibly patient, helpful and reassuring in answering every one of them. From the moment we met him, it was clear we were in good hands. He was funny, friendly, incredibly knowledgeable and always made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. Our first adventure took us through the stunning Troodos Mountains and was one of the highlights of our holiday. The itinerary was perfectly planned and gave us the chance to experience the real Cyprus. We visited an abandoned monastery, admired a beautiful waterfall, and even ventured off-road in the jeep, which the whole family loved. We enjoyed a delicious lunch at a traditional trout farm before wandering through the picturesque village of Omodos with its charming streets and local shops. We also visited the excellent Linos Winery, where we learnt about the winemaking process and sampled some fantastic local wines. Every stop was unique and interesting, and Andreas shared fascinating stories and historical information throughout the day. By the end of the tour, we all had a different favourite stop, which says a lot about how varied and enjoyable the experience was. My personal favourite was the Linos Winery. We enjoyed the first tour so much that we immediately booked a second personalised tour with Andreas to explore even more of the island, with plans to visit Lefkara, Nicosia and Larnaca. Our day began in the beautiful mountain village of Lefkara, where we wandered through the charming streets and bought some freshly made traditional Cypriot delights. We then continued to Nicosia, where Andreas' knowledge really brought the city's fascinating history to life. We visited the impressive Venetian Walls, the oldest cathedral and the Archbishop's Palace before crossing the UN buffer zone into the Turkish-controlled side of the city. There we visited the largest mosque and explored the bustling bazaar, giving us the unique opportunity to experience both sides of the divided capital. Unfortunately, the extreme heat became too much for two elderly members of our group, so we decided to cut our time in Nicosia short and skip our planned visit to Larnaca. Andreas couldn't have handled the situation better. He immediately adapted the itinerary and took us to some wonderful alternative locations, including a beautiful traditional bakery next to a Neolithic site, the stunning St George's Cliffs (the White Cliffs of Cyprus) and the breathtaking Rocks of Aphrodite. His flexibility, care and professionalism ensured the day remained enjoyable for everyone. Across both tours, the vehicle was comfortable, spacious and exceptionally well air-conditioned, which made travelling in the summer heat much more enjoyable. Andreas' passion for Cyprus is infectious, and his knowledge of the island's history, culture and hidden gems made every stop memorable. If you're visiting Cyprus and want to experience far more than the usual tourist attractions, book a tour with Andreas. Whether you're interested in history, culture, food, breathtaking scenery or simply seeing the authentic side of the island, he delivers an unforgettable experience. Thank you, Andreas, for two incredible days that became one of the highlights of our holiday. We will definitely be booking with you again when we return to Cyprus.

Second Great Trip
Our second tour with Andreas was just as fantastic as the first. After enjoying the Troodos Mountains tour so much, we booked a personalised tour to visit Nicosia and Larnaca, and once again Andreas exceeded our expectations. From the start, Andreas demonstrated excellent knowledge of Cyprus, its history and culture. He was informative, friendly and happy to answer any questions, making every stop interesting and enjoyable. The vehicle was comfortable, spacious and well air conditioned, which was very welcome in the summer heat. Our first stop was the beautiful mountain village of Lefkara, where we wandered through its charming streets and bought some freshly made traditional Cypriot delights. It was a wonderful way to start the day and gave us a taste of authentic village life. In Nicosia, we visited the impressive Venetian Walls, the oldest cathedral, and the Archbishop's Palace. One of the highlights was crossing the UN buffer zone into the Turkish controlled side of the city, where we saw the largest mosque and explored the bustling bazaar. It was a fascinating experience to experience both sides of the divided capital. Unfortunately, the extreme heat became too much for two elderly members of our group, so we decided to cut our time in Nicosia short and skip our planned visit to Larnaca. Andreas couldn't have handled the situation better. He quickly adapted the itinerary and took us to some wonderful alternative locations, including a beautiful traditional bakery next to a Neolithic site, the stunning St George's Cliffs (the White Cliffs of Cyprus), and the breathtaking Rocks of Aphrodite. Although the day didn't go exactly as planned, Andreas' flexibility, thoughtfulness and local knowledge turned it into another amazing experience. He made sure everyone was comfortable while still giving us the opportunity to see some incredible places. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Andreas to anyone visiting Cyprus. His knowledge, professionalism and genuine passion for the island make his tours something special. We will definitely be booking with him again when we return to Cyprus in the future.

Amazing Trip
What an amazing day! We honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience exploring the Troodos Mountains. A huge thank you to Andreas, who was the perfect tour guide. He was funny, incredibly knowledgeable, and always made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. Before the tour, I had quite a few questions, and he was so patient, helpful and reassuring in answering every one of them. It really set the tone for what turned out to be a fantastic day. Every stop on the tour had something special to offer, and the information Andreas shared really helped us appreciate the history, culture and beauty of Cyprus. It was lovely that by the end of the day we all had a different favourite stop, which just shows how well thought out the tour is. For me, the highlight was definitely the Linos Winery, but there honestly wasn't a stop we didn't enjoy. The whole day felt relaxed, welcoming and authentic, and it's given us memories we'll look back on for a long time. We enjoyed the experience so much that we've already booked another personalised tour with Andreas to explore even more of this beautiful island. That probably says more than anything else about how much we enjoyed the day! If you're visiting Cyprus and want to see the island beyond the beaches and resorts, we can't recommend this tour highly enough. Thank you, Andreas, for such a wonderful day, we can't wait for our next adventure with you!

Excellent tour of the Troodos mountains
5* trip with Andreas who is a warm, friendly, considerate and very knowledgeable guide. He was concerned to find out what we were looking for in the day and tailoring the tour to ensure we had just the taste of beautiful Cyprus we wanted. Very comfortable car as an alternative to using the jeep. Great driving. Perfect day!

Our Trodos mountain day trip was on point!
Andreas our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and generally fun to be with. He took us two wineries, two charming villages, a bridge and a waterfall in the Trodos mountains and all along kept us entertained with stories of Cyprus' rich history, politics and geo politics.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Paphos.
How much does Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure cost?
+
Prices start at $594 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 Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 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 Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure?
+
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 Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure?
+
Around 4 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure 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 Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure?
+
Included: Bottled water; and Private transportation. Not included: Meals. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure include hotel pickup?

What languages is Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Troodos Mountains Ecotour Adventure?
+
