Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What a cracking start towards the start of our weeks holiday in the cooler (22°:) month of November in Pathos. I did what you're doing now before booking and read the reviews to see what others had to say. And I'm here to assure you that you won't be disappointed. The words 'Value for money' sum this tour up. Everything from Cheese sampling, Olive oil making, traditional bread making, wine tasting and a lot more. All under the guidance of our super educational tour guide Maria.
Thank you once again for the memories and remember us, cos in the words of Arnie, We'll be back👍🍷

What a fabulous day. A small group of 6 guests made for a very relaxed day. Our guide, Elena was very keen to show us the delights of Cyprus food & wines. To see the producers in their own environment gave an insight into the differences between the the product of Cyprus & those available in the UK. Loved the salted Haloumi, the wine tasting (enjoyed some more than others but that's true of many things), whioknew that olive oil could be used in a sweet jam?

Our lunch mezza was lovely, lots of choices and more than enough quantity wise. The location on a patio overlooking a valley was gorgeous

We loved our host Elena who was personable and took lots of photos of the whole group during the day. She also has the knack of leading a conversation to get started and allowing the guest to to follow that lead and bond through the day. Some parts of the day were a bit challenging for those of us with mobility issues, the monastery had a lot of steps, but we overcame.

Overall a lovely day and highly recommended if food & wine is a pleasure of yours.

I can’t rate this trip highly enough.
Dimitri our guide took us to a small house making halloumi, you must try the hawthorn jam it goes very well with halloumi.
The monastery was fascinating and Demitri knew so much about the history and the wine made there.
Lunch in the village was delicious and the visit to the winery was great.
A final stop at a traditional house finished the day perfectly.
Thank you Dimitri for your kindness and sharing your knowledge of this wonderful island.

We booked this tour during our couple of days break in Cyprus. Our guide Christina couldn’t of been more helpful. She was very knowledgeable of the area and wineries and is a real people person with an abundance of positive energy. We’re both not huge wine lovers and I rarely drink wine but I wanted to try something new and did not regret it. We learnt a lot about wine, the local area and had a wonderful meal as well, recommend booking this tour whether your a wine buff or a novice like myself. A bonus of this tour was Christina took photos for us and then uploaded them later for us to enjoy, this meant we could live in the moment and not worry about taking our own photos- something I’ve never seen done on a tour before.

Elena was our tour guide for the day, and we can certainly see why these tours get 5 stars every time! It’s a full day (9 – 5), and it’s not just about the halloumi making either, there were 4 aspects to the tour; the cheese making, a visit to a monastery, then a winery and finally a Cypriot Delight manufacturer.

At the end of the halloumi making, there’s a brunch which includes the fresh halloumi just made, as well as bread, other cheese, salad, and so on. There was plenty and no one went hungry.

At all the locations you can buy the produce if you wish, but if you don’t want to, there’s certainly no pressure or obligation to do so. Having said that, we came home with a suitcase containing halloumi, biscuits, desert wine from the monastery and sweets – our cases weighed quite a bit more going home than they did coming.

The tours are small, only 7 people on ours, which makes it very personal, unlike large group tours, where the guide just really only stands at the front of a coach and just talks. But because of the small size, this is not like that at all – the whole day is a two-way experience. And again, because it’s a small group, the people on the tour also talk to each other much more than they would otherwise do.

Elena was exceptionally knowledgeable and clearly very proud of Cyprus and its food and drink and did a first-rate job being our guide for the day.

The next time we holiday in Cyprus (which I’m sure will be next year), we will definitely be booking another Cyprus Taste Tour!

The tour was amazing! Elena was a great and lovely guide. The food and wine we've tried were delicious and the spots we've visited were amazingly beautiful.

Little note: don't eat too much for breakfast beforehand ;)

Our tour guide Elena picked us from our hotel and was friendly and approachable throughout. She took us to six different stops which collectively offered an array of food, beautiful views and were insightful to Cypriot culture. This eventful tour exceeded our expectations and was excellent valve for money. I highly recommend Cyprus Taste Tours.

Maria did a really good job on this tour.She was patient and friendly at all times.The tour had just the right amount of conversation and information.The producers we met were a real mixed bunch but all with amazing skills and varied personalities.Although we were at the end of no doubt a long procession of visitors this season, you would not have known.Elvis was still in the building and you will have to go to find out which building and how he is protected.We are often suspicious about how 'lunch included' pans out but no fear it was delicious.What is not to like about finishing up at a sweet shop?

This was such a wonderful experience. Christina was incredible - she was charming and brought so much insight with her knowledge of Paphos and Cyprus as a whole. My girlfriend and I definitely felt safe and taken care of from the moment Christina picked us up from our AirBnB. She made sure we were all enjoying ourselves and she had answers for our many questions throughout the day. We had so much fun making cheese, seeing the sights, and enjoying each other's company.

Great trip! Dimitri (our guide) took us to places we wouldn't have gone on our own. A bakery with wonderful bread with herbs and olives, a "garage" maker of wonderful cheese, or a traditional Cypriot country house, with delicious coffee and eggplants in syrup, are places we would love to return to. Plus, fantastic views along the way, a mountain monastery, a winery, or a traditional tavern in the Cypriot countryside rounded out the experience. Go on this trip - it's really worth it!
