1.3-hour Nicosia Segway Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 323 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $71Our pick

Explore Nicosia’s old town by Segway, with local history, artisan stops, coffee, water, and a small English-speaking group.

“This tour combined two things I love most about traveling - a knowledgeable local guide and fun - in this case Segways. Andros was very professional and friendly. The information regarding Cypriot history and Nicosia were much appreciated. Andros also offered to take pictures of me at each landmark which he sent to me the day after the tour. Segways are a wonderful way to cover a lot of ground and move quickly between landmarks. This affords the guide and his guests the chance to spend more time discussing things, visit quaint local artisan shops, experience the atmosphere at a local church (and actually understand the proceedings a bit) and…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 89 reviews · 9 to 10 hours (approx.) · from $216

Review of a private Northern Cyprus day trip from Nicosia, visiting Salamis, Famagusta, Kyrenia, Bellapais, and North Nicosia.

“I decided to reduce time in Lefkosa, you can visit these sights in an extra walk from Levkosia on your own, and put that short overview of Lefkosa at the beginning of the tour. A stop at the monastery St-Barnabas was added instead, thanks to Mr. Serdat! Gazimagusa/Famagusta has a nice city centre, don't miss a short stop to see the ancient city walls, I did it at the Sea gate, from where you can get a spot on the harbour. The most impressive sight is Varosha, a ghost town just south of the medieval city of Gazimagusa/Famagusta. In the afternoon a visit of Bellapais monastery, Kyrenia Castle with its…”

Review of a private Kyrenia and Bellapais tour from Nicosia, with castle history, harbour views, local guiding, hotel transfers, and practical tips.

“I visited Cyprus for the second time this year. As I decided to get acquainted with the northern part of the island, I pre-booked a private tour to Kyrenia and Bellapais Abbey. The trip was led by Mrs. Sirin Suha. It was a spectacular half-day tour to amazing sites. And Mrs. Sirin was a wonderful companion - she speaks English perfectly, knows her job very well, and knows Cyprus and its history very well too. Therefore, immediately after that, we arranged an excursion to the medieval city of Famagusta and to the Troodos mountains. The last trips left a great impression not only because of the uniqueness of the objects…”

Review of a private Kyrenia tour from Nicosia, covering St. Hilarion, Bellapais, Kyrenia Castle, harbor, lunch, and practical tips.

“I had a wonderful tour guide, Sedat, whose knowledge of Northern Cyprus, it's history, and culture was fabulous. I had returned to Cyprus, where I once lived, for the first time in 63 years. I got to see Kyrenia Harbor where we had a house, Kyrenia Castle and St Hilarion's where my family visited often. Not only was it a great tour, but it was a walk down memory lane. Sedat was very supportive and encouraging in making sure I got to see the places that were important to me.”

Review of the Kyrenia Mountain Villages tour, with St Hilarion Castle, Bellapais Abbey, six-wine tasting, and Kyrenia Harbour.

“A day before departure we were advised of changes to the program. We accepted but the next day apparently realized the company combined our program with that of another 2 passengers traveling on a different program. Overall what we did was OK but by combining us with the others the biggest problem was that the vehicle was too small to comfortably accommodate any of us. It was a long 8 hours.”
