Visit a Organic Olive Farm with Tasting of Various Olive Products

Some tours stay with you long after they end – not because of grand monuments, but because of quiet moments, surprising tastes, and heartfelt encounters.

This private tour invites you into the heart of rural Cyprus, where ancient olive trees grow beside stone villages, and where time slows to the rhythm of tradition and nature.

You’ll taste what olives can become, walk through the artistry of Lefkara, and end your day feeding gentle donkeys under the shade of olive groves.

It’s a soft, sensory journey – full of local flavors, craft, and soul.

Perfect for curious travelers, couples, and anyone looking for a warm, personal connection with Cyprus.

 

Olive Farm, Lefkara & Donkey Sanctuary

We begin with a visit to a family-run organic olive farm, tucked into the foothills of the Troodos Mountains.
Here you’ll walk among olive trees – some over 1000 years old – and learn how the olive harvest becomes far more than just oil.
In a guided tasting, you’ll discover the surprising variety of olive-based products: premium oils, tapenades, marmalades, liqueurs, and even cosmetics. Yes, olives can nourish body and skin alike!
All local, all handmade – and you can taste and test at your leisure.

From here, we continue to the nearby mountain village of Lefkara, famous for its lace embroidery (Lefkaritika) and silver craft.
With its narrow lanes, flower-decked stone houses, and artisan workshops, Lefkara feels like a living museum of Cypriot heritage. You’ll have time to wander, shop, photograph, or enjoy a quiet coffee in a shady courtyard.

We round off the day with a joyful visit to a Donkey Sanctuary, nestled in nature.
These gentle animals are happy to see visitors – especially those with snacks! Don’t worry, we bring their favorite treats, and feeding is encouraged.
The sanctuary is also home to goats, hens, and peacocks – a peaceful place where humans and animals reconnect.
You can also try skin creams and soaps made from donkey milk, an ancient ingredient with modern benefits.
