Private Lefkara Tour – Visit the picturesque mountain village and a Olive-Farm with a tasting

Nestled in the foothills of the Troodos Mountains, Lefkara feels like a living postcard of traditional Cyprus. On this Private Lefkara Tour, you’ll discover a village where every stone and every smile tells a story — a place where craftsmanship, culture, and nature blend in perfect harmony.

Lefkara is world-famous for its handmade lace and delicate silverwork, but there’s much more to uncover: olive groves older than history itself, mountain air scented with thyme, and a rhythm of life that still follows the seasons.

You’ll taste pure, organic olive oil, stroll through narrow cobblestone lanes, and meet the village artisans who keep centuries-old traditions alive. From ancient trees to gentle donkeys, every encounter connects you with the authentic heart of Cyprus – personal, genuine, and unforgettable.

Private Lefkara Tour – Tradition, Taste & Timeless Beauty in the Troodos Foothills

Your Private Lefkara Tour begins just outside the village with a visit to a family-run organic olive farm. Walk among ancient olive trees, some over a thousand years old, and learn about the island’s most treasured ingredient. Your host will explain the process of harvesting and pressing the olives, followed by a tasting of fresh olive oil and local delicacies — from olive jam and schnapps to handmade cosmetics and soaps.

Next, we head to Lefkara village, famous for its Lefkaritika lace and intricate silverwork. Strolling through its picturesque alleys, you’ll meet local artisans still crafting lace and jewelry by hand — skills passed down through generations. Legend says that Leonardo da Vinci once took a piece of Lefkara lace to adorn the altar of Milan’s cathedral. You’ll have time to browse small shops, photograph the colorful stone houses, or simply enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of this beautiful mountain village.

To round off your experience, we visit a local donkey farm, a favorite stop for guests of all ages. Set among olive trees, this peaceful sanctuary lets you meet, feed, and gently pet the donkeys while learning about the traditional uses of donkey milk in Cypriot skincare and wellness. A small café on site invites you for a refreshing break before returning to your accommodation.

This private guided tour is tailored entirely to your interests — whether you want more time for tasting, photography, or village life. Experience the charm of Lefkara and its surroundings at your own pace, in comfort and authenticity.

Discover tradition, taste, and timeless beauty on your Private Lefkara Tour – an unforgettable journey through the cultural heart of Cyprus.
