Enjoy a fascinating trip to two of Cyprus' most popular cities, rich in history and culture. We begin at Hala Sultan Tekke, a significant Islamic shrine in Larnaca, dedicated to Umm Haram, the Prophet Mohammed’s relative. It is considered the third most important holy site in Islam. Next, we visit Larnaca's Salt Lake, once a vital source of "white gold" for Cyprus’ economy and now a stunning natural attraction. A seaside walk offers refreshing views before we explore the famous 9th-century Church of St. Lazarus, known for miracles and attracting pilgrims worldwide. Our journey continues to Nicosia, Cyprus’ divided capital. You’ll walk along Ledra Street, cross the "Green Line," and experience the city's northern part. This tour is a perfect way to explore Cyprus’ diverse history and cultural landmarks while enjoying its breathtaking sights.

Itinerary

Hala Sultan Tekke

Hala Sultan Tekke sits gracefully on the edge of Larnaca Salt Lake, its domes mirrored in still water that glows pink during flamingo season. Whether you visit at sunset or in the quiet of morning, the site blends nature, history, and calm in a way that stays with you.

Larnaka Salt Lake

Larnaca Salt Lake shifts with the seasons — in winter, it fills with water and flamingos, turning the landscape into a living postcard; in summer, it becomes a shimmering, dry expanse under the sun, peaceful and otherworldly. Whether you're here for a breezy walk or to catch the changing light, the lake always offers a quiet kind of beauty.

Built over the reputed tomb of Lazarus, this 9th-century stone church anchors the soul of Larnaca, where history, faith, and daily life all meet. Just steps from cafés and streets, it offers a moment of stillness beneath ancient arches and timeless domes.
