Picked up in small people carrier from our hotel by Vlad. As we were the only people on the tour we had his undivided attention. His knowledge of the island and it's history was excellent and he kept us entertained with facts and anecdotes. He was also an excellent driver. From a visit to the village of Laneia where we tasted some beautiful wine and purchased a bottle to bring back, we then went to Agros village. Here we visited the traditional sweets company Nikhe (sampled many delicios items), the Rose factory (the pure rose scent was so relaxing) and Kafkalia deli to sample smoked meats.
Next we had a superb lunch at a traditional family restaurant called Makris. An added bonus was a visit to Cyprus Chocolates, where Katerina was so welcoming and knowledgeable, teaching us about pure 100% dark chocolate as well as the other beautiful chocolates they produce. Finally we visited another larger winery The
Lambouri winery - LionSpirit. Again we were giving a history of the winery and tasted some lovely wines.
All in all this was an amazing day's tour and we can highly recommend it.
