Next, we drive through Amargeti, a tranquil mountain village surrounded by scenic landscapes. Admire historic churches and the Folklore Museum from the vehicle while enjoying the peaceful beauty of the Cypriot countryside.
Taste Artisanal Delicacies at Mastros
Finally, we visit Mastros, a family-owned artisanal producer. Sample wines, carob syrup, olive oil, vinegar, and other local delicacies — all crafted with care. More than a tasting, it’s a journey into Cypriot heritage, pride, and craftsmanship.

Our group had an incredible time tasting authentic Cypriot wines at local wineries; the highlight was discovering a small family-owned vineyard where we enjoyed a delightful private tasting. Sharing stories with the owner while savoring a robust red made the experience feel personal and memorable. One suggestion would be to add a bit more time at each stop to truly savor the flavors and soak in the atmosphere.

Exploring the picturesque vineyards near Paphos in Cyprus was an unexpected highlight of our trip. As we traveled from one local winery to another, the stunning countryside views made the journey itself a delight. At one small winery, we savored an exquisite Cypriot red that lingered on our palates, accompanied by the owner’s heartfelt stories about the region’s winemaking traditions. We appreciated how knowledgeable our guide was, sharing insights about the authentic flavors and unique grape varieties indigenous to Cyprus. If we could suggest one improvement, it would be to include a light snack to pair with the wine tastings, as it would enhance the overall experience.

We had an amazing afternoon visiting charming local wineries and sampling authentic Cypriot wines, which truly showcased the region’s rich viticulture. Each stop felt like a little gem, and we particularly loved the cozy family-run place where we learned about the winemaking process while sipping on their delicious blends. The stunning views of the surrounding hills added a beautiful backdrop to our experience, making the whole day feel special. One minor suggestion would be to include a bit more time at each winery to fully savor the tastings and chat with the hosts, but overall, it was a delightful way to immerse ourselves in the local culture.
