Traveler reviews
Beautiful experience
Really nice experience, our bus arrived at the pick up location at exactly 8:55 as i've been told it would. The tour guide was great, provided a lot of information.
Not what we were sold
Completely not the trip we were sold... was more of a coach trip (a rubbish school trip). The itinerary was not stuck to at all. And got forced to spend an hour in a restaurant in Polis as no others were open! The restaurant was obviously giving back handers to the tour operators, although the service was ok, the food was the worse we had in Cyprus. The boat was ok, however not as long as we were told and not enough life jackets etc.
Blue Lagoon boat trip
Enjoyable trip, short visit to Aphrodite Baths - there is a nature trial, but you would need longer (not enough time to explore). Boat trip to the Blue Lagoon was the best bit, clear blue sea (very salty) as described. Our trip was on Sunday, so nothing other than restaurants open in the village of Polis. Sea caves and shipwreck (abandoned steel cargo ship that ran a ground) lovely views. The banana plantation was interesting to look at and the guide Anna explained they were from the herb family, which I never knew. When we left to go back to our drop off point, I did wonder if they had left two people behind at the shipwreck, as they weren't on the coach 🤔 The guide was lovely, very knowledgeable.
Average trip needs some changes to itinerary
Trip was ok think things could have been done in a different order to slightly shorten trip Would have been better seq caves , ship wreck then Aphrodite bath , then boat trip to blue lagoon and then lunch in laffi after boat. Pollis bit purely for lunch was waste of time and would have been better to come home after free time in laffi
Great trip.
Great day out well organised, friendly staff on boat and delivered what was advertised, had a good day really enjoyed the swim .
