Highlights of the Tour

• Kyrenia Old Town and Harbor – Stroll through the lively streets of Kyrenia’s historic district, lined with shops, bars, and cafes. The nostalgic harbor invites you to soak in its unique atmosphere, where colorful fishing boats and yachts float beneath the shadow of the impressive Kyrenia Castle. This castle has stood guard over the harbor for centuries and now houses a fascinating shipwreck museum, along with panoramic views of the coastline.
• St. Hilarion Castle– Nestled high in the mountains above Kyrenia, this legendary fortress is said to have inspired the design of Disney’s Sleeping Beauty castle. Climb the ancient stone steps and explore the labyrinth of rooms, towers, and courtyards. The reward? Stunning views that stretch all the way to the Mediterranean Sea, making the journey to the top truly unforgettable.
• Bellapais Monastery (Alternative Option) – If you prefer a more tranquil setting, choose to visit the Bellapais Monastery, one of the best-preserved medieval sites in Cyprus. Built high in the Kyrenia Mountains, this former abbey resembles a fortress more than a traditional monastery. Wander through the gothic arches, stone courtyards, and balconies that overlook the stunning landscape below.

As with all SancyTours experiences, this tour is fully private and customizable. You control the schedule – spend as much time as you like at each location and tailor the tour to your interests. Whether you’re drawn to medieval fortresses or coastal charm, this adventure offers a balance of history, scenery, and exploration.
