Four-hour boat trip with swimming and snorkelling

What to expect

Unlock all the secrets of Cyprus by both land and sea. By road, you'll visit two of the island's most intriguing spots – the old town of Famagusta and the ‘ghost town' of Varosha. Then by sea, there's time to chill out on a relaxing cruise to the Blue Lagoon.

Travelling in an off-road vehicle, our first pit stop is the Famagusta culture centre to understand the history of the island. Then pass through the military checkpoint into northern Cyprus and gaze at the haunting sight of Varosha – once a popular beach resort, it's lain abandoned since the Turkish invasion more than 40 years ago and is now a no-go zone.

On to Famagusta old town and you can explore the Venetian city walls, its collection of church ruins, or the Gothic cathedral turned mosque. Finally, we switch exploration for relaxation with a boat cruise to the Blue Lagoon where there's lunch on-board and plenty of time to swim, snorkel or sunbathe.
