Our Guides
On arrival
The meeting point is at the small square right in front of the Tahtakale mosque. Look for the guy with a backpack and a tablet! Careful! Sometimes due to an error, the GPS tries to bring you to the starting point through the occupied part. However, this is not the case, so if that happens to you, try to navigate manually, until the route changes to the correct one.
Things to note
Beware of the heat! Bring hats, sunscreen, or anything else you deem necessary to protect yourself against the sun.
Note: the tour only includes the part of Nicosia that is controlled by the Republic of Cyprus, i.e., not the Turkish-occupied part.
