From North Cyprus Famagusta Salamis St Barnabas and Ghost Town

About this activity

You will be met at your location in North Cyprus and begin a fascinating journey through the island’s rich history and culture. Your first stop is the ancient city of Salamis, where Roman ruins, marble columns, baths, and the ancient theatre reveal the grandeur of one of Cyprus’ most important archaeological sites. We then continue to the Monastery and Tomb of St. Barnabas, a peaceful spiritual site dedicated to the founder of the Cypriot Church.

The tour continues to the medieval Walled City of Famagusta, home to impressive Venetian walls, the legendary Othello Tower, and the stunning Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque, originally built as the Gothic Cathedral of St. Nicholas. Guests also enjoy free time for shopping and cafés in the old town. Before returning, we visit Varosha, the famous Ghost Town, frozen in time since 1974, before driving you back to your location.
