TOUR OVERVIEW

Discover Limassol | 4 days

Limassol is historical and cosmopolitan.

Still known to many as Limassol, Lemesos is one of Cyprus’ most underrated cities. Although fringed on its eastern edge by a glut of bland-looking developments, the core is full of character. Wrapped around a castle, the historic centre radiates out in a web of lanes where old, shuttered houses and modern boutiques lie cheek by jowl. It’s an area buzzing with cafes, bars and restaurants that are as popular with locals as with visitors.

It is exciting and untamed. But above all, it is everything you would want it to be. There is so much you can do in Limassol which makes it hard for you to know about everything. No worries though, we are here for you!
