On this Private Omodos Tour, you’ll discover the authentic mountain soul of Cyprus, traveling through breathtaking scenery, peaceful forests, and charming villages where tradition is still alive.

From shimmering dams and secret waterfalls to medieval bridges and vineyards that stretch to the horizon, every stop reveals a different side of the island. This journey combines nature, culture, and taste in perfect balance – ending with a glass of local wine in the heart of Omodos.

It’s Cyprus at its purest: peaceful, colorful, and unforgettable.

Private Omodos Tour – Mountains, Waterfalls & Wine in the Heart of Cyprus

Your Private Omodos Tour begins as we climb into the Troodos Mountains, whose peaks rise up to nearly 2,000 meters. The scenic drive leads first to the Kouris Dam, Cyprus’ largest reservoir. Here, when water levels are high, only the bell tower of the old Church of Alassa remains visible above the surface — a hauntingly beautiful sight.

From there, we pass through the mountain village of Trimiklini, where you can stop at the local fruit and vegetable market to sample fresh produce from nearby orchards. Continuing upward, the road winds into dense forest to reach the Millomeris Waterfall, one of Cyprus’ most peaceful natural spots. Enjoy the sound of cascading water and the cool mountain air before heading deeper into the woods to find the Milia Bridge, a medieval stone crossing hidden among trees and wildflowers. A quick stop at the Pedri Dam offers more stunning mountain views before descending into the next valley — and into Omodos itself.

Omodos Village is the jewel of the Troodos Mountains, famous for its cobbled streets, traditional homes, and beautiful courtyards. You’ll visit the Monastery of the Holy Cross, home to ancient icons and relics, including a fragment believed to be from the cross of Christ. The village is also alive with local artisans — glassblowers, lace makers, and winemakers who keep centuries-old crafts alive. Take time to stroll, shop, and soak up the tranquil atmosphere.

Your day concludes with a visit to a family-run winery, where you’ll taste local mountain wines and spirits, including the legendary Commandaria dessert wine and the strong Zivania. Enjoy the view, the flavors, and the warm hospitality that make this region so special.

This Private Omodos Tour is flexible and entirely shaped around your interests — whether you love nature, history, or wine. Experience the mountain heart of Cyprus your way — personal, peaceful, and unforgettable.
