An Unforgettable Buggy Adventure – Safe, Fun, and Absolutely Stunning!
My friend and I had an absolutely amazing experience on this buggy tour. I hadn't driven a vehicle in over 20 years, so I was quite nervous before the tour started. Looking back, I had absolutely nothing to worry about. We had families, friends and moms with their young sons in our formation. So it is literally for everyone!
We used the pickup service, which was conveniently located right next to our hotel. Jantina, a wonderfully energetic and knowledgeable guide, picked us up along with another family and already made the drive to the starting point enjoyable. She shared fascinating information about Cyprus and the tour itself, which got everyone excited and prepared for the adventure ahead.
At the base, Chris gave us a clear and professional safety briefing. His calm and confident approach immediately helped me relax and feel comfortable behind the wheel again. The buggies are automatic, making them very easy to drive, even for someone like me who hadn't driven in decades.
The tour itself was perfectly organized. We drove both on-road and off-road, including winding mountain roads with breathtaking views. The group stayed together in a safe formation with comfortable distances between vehicles, and Chris always made sure everyone was ready before moving on. At every stop, he even positioned the buggies so that getting started again was effortless.
One thing I particularly appreciated was the strong focus on safety. The rules were simple and sensible: stay in formation, don't overtake, and don't create large gaps that encourage speeding. We were informed later that serious accidents have happened on other tours when people ignored these basic rules. Thanks to the professionalism of Chris and his team, we always felt safe and well looked after. Another guide stayed at the rear of the group to ensure nobody was left behind. - I recommend a bandana for the offroad part as it gets dustyyyyy.
The stops were fantastic and well-timed. We visited beautiful waterfalls where you could either explore the walking trails and museum area or take a refreshing swim in the surprisingly cold water. There were plenty of great photo opportunities. We also stopped at Coral Bay, where guests could swim again or simply relax, enjoy some food, and take in the scenery.
For us, this was the highlight of our trip to Cyprus. My friend enjoyed it so much that she joked she wants to get her driving license just so she can do buggy tours like this more often!
A huge thank you to Chris, Jantina, and the entire team. We would gladly do this tour again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cyprus.

Honest review
The trip itself was good but the initial transportation to the venue was very poor. Driver didn’t have a clue about what was going on. The collection times were not good and we had to wait at a pick up point for 40 mins for other travellers as they were told a completely different collection times.
Apart from that the boat trip was very good. The boat was very clean and the staff were very welcoming and the trip was throughly enjoyable. Refreshments were poor only 1 drink offered and a slice of apple.

Wonderful Day Trip from Paphos!
This was an outstanding tour, mainly due to our wonderful guide, Anna. She was thorough and extremely well organized. She made everyone feel welcome by introducing herself and our driver,Lambros, as people were picked up. She gave us hints of the best places to get a good view. She tried to talk to everyone at some point during the day. Our stops were great and we had plenty of time at each. Swimming in the Blue Lagoon was an experience! The ship wreck, sea caves and Aphrodite's baths were all interesting. Anna wanted to be the first bus if all the tour groups at a stop so she stressed the importance of getting back to the bus on time. She kept us on schedule and did a great job! When it was time to be dropped off at the end, she made sure each group member knew where to get off. She even helped people know where to get off if they wanted to see some different sites and not go back to their starting location it was an excellent day with an excellent guide!

Highly recommend
This was a perfect day with the guide Yannis (I’m not sure if that’s how his name is spelled). The guide was very knowledgeable, answered all our questions about Cyprus’s culture and history, and the tour was well planned. We visited the most beautiful places in Paphos.
If you’re boring and don’t like fun and a bit of misbehaving, then I wouldn’t recommend this trip.

Vlad was a great tour guide!
I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for an excursion from the Paphos area. Vlad was a great tour guide with a lot of knowledge regarding the itinerary and the island as a whole. What made it even better was that we all travelled in a 7 seater people carrier which made it a whole lot more personal.

Cyprus in a day
A long day but a great experience. A mountain village showcasing traditional crafts, crossing the 'Green Line' into the Turkish Cypriot part of Nicosia, the amazing interior of a Greek Orthodox Church. Unfortunately the flamingos were on the far side of the salt lake. Our guide was very knowledgable with lots of information about where we were going as well as the history of Cyprus and the time went quickly. While it would have been nice to have had a little longer at each of the stops, I appreciate this was hard to do with the distances travelled from Pafos.

A brilliant taste tour with a sample variety of the most exquisite halloumi, olives, meats and wines from rural locations. We were treated to wonderful vistas, a historic monastery stop, and some unique Byzantine style artworks. A great mix of experiences. Christina was amazing looking after us, with her stories, humour and friendliness. She's a genuine people person, so warm and welcoming. I would highly recommend this trip. Can get nippy in the mountains so bring an extra layer if travelling outside of summer. You will enjoy!!

The perfect tour does exist 😊
Loved my experience. Staff was friendly, personable, knowledgeable, and professional. The tour was well mapped out and fun. I loved all the stops and felt we had just enough time in each location without having to feel worn out by the end of the day like with some other tours. Riding the quad up the mountain to the waterfalls was an exhilarating experience. I was definitely nervous as the trek was a bit high up but I was made to feel very comfortable despite my phobia. Overall i would highly recommend and even do it again. To the wonderful woman who picked me up from the hotel: you mentioned you always forget to look up how the water is purified in Cyprus and this is your reminder 😊 thank you again for a great experience.

Wonderful day
Very interesting and beautiful sites, great boat ride and lagoon experience, the guide was attentive and informative and didn't leave anything to chance, which is exactly what you would expect when traveling with young kids and elderly members of the family

Fun morning out
A great short boat trip to the beautiful blue lagoon. Plenty of time for swimming on arrival and for more than one go on the slide! The waters are warm and clear and the scenery is very pleasant. Drinks and snacks can be purchased on board to save you taking lots of stuff with you. The staff were friendly and the boat was modern and clean.

A night of entertainment
Had a fabulous evening on this cruise. Booked last minute as the one we were due to go on cancelled last minute.
Have booked through Viator before and have never had any problems & like the idea you can cancel if you encounter any problems unexpectedly.
The cruise itself was really good. A couple of teething problems at the start when we had to wait quite a while for a drink as there was only one waitress serving our whole deck. We could see on the deck below drinks were flowing. (The waitress was lovely so not her fault at all). The wine eventually arrived and was off. Took a while to get all that sorted and when it was dinner time the food was really tasty.
Entertainment on the boat all evening. Topped off with fireworks and disco.
We would do this again and would recommend it.

Well worth the long day
Long day and weather was really hot so was tiring but such a worthwhile excursion. So hard to believe its now 51 years since the Greek cypriots had to flee their homes & their livlihoods when the Turk cypriots invaded with nothing more than the clothes they stood up in. Very moving and eerie walking round the streets showing the abandoned buildings that once, long ago, was full of families living their lives! The beach is divine with beautiful crystal clear water yet the backdrop is devastating - rows of apartment blocks and Hotels all derelict and abandoned! Just outside of the Ghost town the Turk Cypriots live in apparant normality when just a few metres away, is the result of their invasion - where time has stood still and certainly is very haunting!

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Paphos is close enough to many of Cyprus’s beaches, prettiest mountain villages, and most interesting archaeological sites to make it a perfect starting point for short excursions around the island. Paphos day trips range from snorkeling and diving expeditions to hiking and jeep tours to wilder sides of the island. There are also plenty of immersive experiences in mountain villages where you can visit monasteries, taste locally produced sweets and wine, dine on a lavish mezze lunch in a traditional taverna, and even learn how to make your own halloumi cheese.
