Cyprus has a fascinating story hidden beneath its landscape. Cyprus mining history reaches back thousands of years and is closely connected with copper, minerals and the remarkable geology of the island.
The mineral-rich rocks of Cyprus made the island an important centre of copper production in the ancient world. Over the centuries, mining continued to shape not only the economy and history of Cyprus, but also parts of its landscape.
Cyprus Nature Tours are the perfect way to experience the island beyond beaches and busy tourist areas. Cyprus is a land of contrasts — forested mountains, dramatic coastlines, hidden valleys, red-earth landscapes and quiet viewpoints — and our private Cyprus Nature Tours are designed to bring you directly into this natural diversity.
This category combines Cyprus’ most beautiful scenic highlights with lesser-known places that remain untouched and peaceful. With Cyprus Nature Tours, you don’t just “see nature” — you feel it: the silence, the fresh mountain air, the wild textures of the coast and the deep calm of places where tourism hasn’t taken over.
