Traveler reviews
The blue lagoon is...
The blue lagoon is something everyone should experience, the water is crystal clear and the coastline views on the boat are just stunning! Polis is very small however Finikas restaurant is beautiful and done a lovely gyros. A lot of time is spent on a bus going to and from polis/latchi harbour. We thoroughly enjoyed this trip and will do it again when coming to Cyprus. Our guide Anna was so nice and gave us all as much time as possible on each part of this tour. Highly recommend.
Beautiful day tour
Had a great fun day with Lisa the guide and driver George. Visited the Baths of Aphrodite and a beautiful boat trip to the Blue Lagoon
Wonderful Day Trip from Paphos!
This was an outstanding tour, mainly due to our wonderful guide, Anna. She was thorough and extremely well organized. She made everyone feel welcome by introducing herself and our driver,Lambros, as people were picked up. She gave us hints of the best places to get a good view. She tried to talk to everyone at some point during the day. Our stops were great and we had plenty of time at each. Swimming in the Blue Lagoon was an experience! The ship wreck, sea caves and Aphrodite's baths were all interesting. Anna wanted to be the first bus if all the tour groups at a stop so she stressed the importance of getting back to the bus on time. She kept us on schedule and did a great job! When it was time to be dropped off at the end, she made sure each group member knew where to get off. She even helped people know where to get off if they wanted to see some different sites and not go back to their starting location it was an excellent day with an excellent guide!
Great day out
Great day out. Anna, our guide, was a lovely person and was so informative during the whole excursion. The highlight was the boat trip to the Blue Lagoon, an amazing place, crystal clear water, wonderful. The stop at Moustakallis restaurant in Polis for lunch was great, the food was really good. Unfortunately most of Polis was closed, whether it was because it was a Sunday or because it was Mother’s Day here, not sure. There were also stops to see the Edro shipwreck, the Baths of Aphrodite. Good value day out, made better by Anna’s knowledge and manner.
Our guide Liga is the best guide ever!
I really liked the cruise — it’s very cheap for such a program with transfer included. We were very lucky with our guide, Liga, is very kind and responsive!!!! 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
