Visit: Nicosia - Famagusta Gate - Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist - Archaeological Museum

Nicosia, also known as Lefkosia, is the divided capital city of Cyprus. South of the border, on the Greek side, the Cyprus Museum has archaeological finds from the Neolithic to Byzantine periods, including the Aphrodite of Soloi statue. Nearby, the old city’s 16th-century Venetian walls include the Famagusta, Kyrenia and Paphos gates. Inside the walls, a marble mausoleum sits next to 19th-century Faneromeni Church. The elegant Hilton Nicosia is located in one of the capital's prime residential areas, only five minutes from the town centre, close to the embassies, Cyprus International State Fair, museums, Horse Race Club, entertainment areas and only 45 minutes from Larnaca International Airport. All 194 luxuriously spacious rooms offer breath-taking views of the garden or lagoon-shaped swimming pool. Enjoy a scrumptious meal in the Olympia restaurant, a drink in the Amalfi Lounge Bar, or an aromatic coffee and irresistible dessert in the Vienna cafe.

Morning after breakfast at the hotel proceed for full day excursion to the city of Nicosia. Our guide will meet the guests at the lobby of the hotel to set off for today’s tour. Nicosia, or Lefkosia, lies roughly at the center of the island, with a rich history that can be traced back to the Bronze Age. Today, it blends its historic past brilliantly with the bustle of a modern city. The heart of the city, enclosed by the 16th century Venetian walls, is dotted with museums, ancient churches and medieval buildings preserving the nostalgic atmosphere of years past. The famous Famagusta Gate still stands today, proudly protecting the still-ancient town within from the modern city without. From there, we will drive to the cathedral of St. John the Evangelist and its 13th and 18th century wall paintings; depicting scenes from the Bible and the discovery of the tomb of St. Barnabas in Salamis. Enjoy the cosmopolitan atmosphere of the capital of Cyprus with a visit to the prominent Archaeological museum (closed on Mondays) with its fascinating collection of Cypriot antiquities and treasures from the Neolithic age to the Early Byzantine period. After a passing the Venetian walls of the old city, we arrive at Laiki Geitonia and stroll at leisure down its stone paved streets where lunch can be served. Return to the hotel.
