What you can expect

We begin our day with a stop at a pottery workshop in Yeroskipou village, where we will see how the potters continue the ancient traditional craft.

Our next stop is at the village square where we will see the unique 5-domed church of St Paraskevi, built in the 9th century reputedly on the site where the ancient temple of Aphrodite previously stood. We will also have a chance to see how the ‘loukoumia’ (Turkish delights) are made and wander around the square with its local produce shops.

From there we will go to a small village, Letymbou, where we will visit Sophia’s traditional house where you can experience rooms with the original furniture and décor as well as traditional costumes. You will see the baking of village bread in the clay oven and/or makes other local delicacies such as the traditional halloumi cheese. Afterwards we will have a brunch –a special “Cypriot breakfast”, prepared by Sophia (included in the price).

Next, we will visit Paphos Old Market at the heart of the Old Town “Agora.” Indoors you can browse several boutiques and stalls selling clothing and accessories, while outside you will walk along alleys to see little shops, many art shops where stuff is hand crafted, fab views up and coffee shops.
