5/5
I enjoyed every moment of this trip 💜 Thanks to Christina I was able to visit both sides of Cyprus and explore this amazing island, most important, with a local guide. Christina introduced to me local cypriot traditions, food and lifestyle, which I totally loved. My other tripmates were very friendly and nice too and we got along very good together, it was a nice way to get to know people :). The best part was that we could decide and be flexible about our next destination or how we will spend our next day, as we were all expressing our wishes and had similar interests. We made a lot of memories and took many unforgettable photos together. In this trip we had every kind of destination & landscapes: big cultural cities🌃, nature🍃, mountains⛰️, sea🌊, beach🏝️, caves🗻, old castles 🛕& churches⛪️, beautiful sunsets🌄 and lots of cats 😋. It was an awesome experience and I totally recommend it to anyone who s up to a new adventure and love to get to know new people.🧡
Arrive at Rovaniemi airport, where our private driver will drive us to our accommodation. The latest arrival time is 1:00 pm, so in case you can't make it in time prefer to arrive a day earlier.
