A trip that gives you the chance to visit the beautiful coastal town of Famagusta and to go as near as possible to the abandoned part of the town that is known all around the world as the “Ghost Town” of Varosha!

The first stop is the Monastery of Saint Barnabas, the founder of the Cypriot Orthodox Church. There you will also have the chance to visit the Icon Museum of the Monastery as well as the tomb of Saint Barnabas who martyred in the area in 52AD (optional extra – not included in the price).

Our trip continues with a visit to the ancient city-kingdom of Salamis, founded right after the Trojan War by the archer Teucer who came from the Greek island of Salamis. Time will be given there for a guided tour around the archaeological site which includes a beautiful ancient Greek theatre and marble columns, Roman Baths and a Gymnasium (optional extra – not included in the price).

We then drive back to Famagusta Old Town Center, where free time will be given for lunch (optional extra – not included in the price) and sightseeing. During your free time there, we highly recommend a walk around the Venetian Walls that surround the old part of the town and a visit at the Gothic Church of Saint Nicolas and Othello Castle (optional extra not included in the price), which is mentioned by William Shakespeare in his play “Othello”.

Your last stop will be the beach located right next to the “Ghost Town” of Varosha. There, you will have the chance to swim in the crystal-clear blue waters of the beautiful golden sandy beach of Famagusta, whilst taking in the eerie sight of the abandoned buildings which have been desolate since Turkish invasion in 1974. You can also take a walk at a small part of the abandoned “Ghost Town” that opened for a public in 2020 for the first time after 46 years. On our way back we drive right next to the “Ghost Town of Varosha”, where you can see exactly how the area, that was once the best tourist resort of the island, now looks like!
