About this excursion

Some days leave a mark. This half-day journey from Limassol to Paphos takes you through layers of history that shaped an entire civilization.

It begins at Petra tou Romiou — where, according to ancient myth, Aphrodite rose from the sea. Feel the spray of the waves and decide for yourself.

As you continue through Paphos, your guide brings to life the Catacombs of Saint Solomoni and the Church of Saint Kyriaki — ancient sites of early Christian faith, each with a story that stays with you long after you've passed.

Wander the open-air Paphos Archaeological Park — Roman mosaics, ancient statues, and 4,000 years of Cyprus beneath an open sky.

End at Paphos Castle, a medieval fortress at the water's edge — with sweeping harbor views and centuries of history in every stone.

Myth, faith, ancient civilization, and the Mediterranean at its most dramatic. All in one half-day.
