Day 1 : Arrival Paphos (13Km – 30Min)

Location: Paphos

Accommodation Name: Athena Beach Hotel

Welcome to Cyprus! Upon landing at Paphos Airport, a tour representative will meet and greet you before guiding you to the transfer to your hotel. Settle in your room before spending the rest of this first day at leisure (private transfer from Larnaca Airport is available at additional cost).
Overnight in Paphos.

Day 2 : Paphos – Caledonia Waterfalls – Paphos (170Km – 3.5Hrs By Coach / 2Hrs Hike)

Location: Paphos

Accommodation Name: Athena Beach Hotel

Wake up to a tasty breakfast at the hotel, and hop on the coach for your first adventure! The first stop of the day will be at Kolossi fruit plantation where you will have the chance to try some fresh lemonade and buy fruit before continuing further into the mountains to the pretty hilltop village of Platres. This is the starting point for the nature trail, which follows the bubbling Kryos Potamos stream through the verdant forest for 3km. Once you reach the Caledonia Falls, you'll be able to take a break by the shaded freshwater retreat, then keep going to the famous Psilo Dendro restaurant with its very own trout farm. Relax over lunch – needless to say, trout is a speciality – and enjoy an amble through Platres village before returning to Paphos.
Overnight in Paphos.

Day 3 : Paphos – Akamas Peninsula – Paphos (90Km – 3Hrs)

Location: Paphos

Accommodation Name: Athena Beach Hotel

There’s only one way to explore the wild Akamas Peninsula, by 4x4. Join in on this bumpy adventure as you go off-road down dirt tracks and over potholes. First up is Lara Beach. It's the location of a turtle conservation project, which has been protecting endangered sea turtles for decades. Next, your guide will drive you to Latchi harbour, where you'll board a boat to the Blue Lagoon. With clear, turquoise waters this bay is a great swimming spot. You might see turtles here, too. Once you get back to Latchi, you'll have a traditional meze-style lunch in a local restaurant. Then, you'll hop back into the 4x4 to visit the steeped-in-legend Baths of Aphrodite. Set on top of a hill with views over the peninsula, it's said this is the spot where the Goddess of Love, Aphrodite, met her lover, Adonis.
Overnight in Paphos.

Day 4 : Paphos: City Tour

Location: Paphos

Accommodation Name: Athena Beach Hotel

Join a professional guide for a small group tour on an electric scooter through the historic alleys and streets of Paphos. After a safety briefing and test drive of your two-wheel roller, it's time to roll out into the city in style. You'll see the former Byzantine castle and Kato Paphos Archaeological Park where the preserved mosaics and ruins are mesmerising. You'll hear stories and anecdotes about the entire historic area and there are plenty of stops for photos along the way. Afterwards, you'll glide along the romantic shoreline, and in just two hours you'll have seen so much more of this UNESCO World Heritage Site than if you'd ventured out on foot. And for complete flexibility, you can choose between a morning or afternoon tour.
Note: For security reasons the minimum weight for the electric scooter is 45kg and the maximum weight is 115kgOvernight in Paphos.

    We are an Online Travel Agency, specialized in Group Vacations and Private Vacations. We have been in business for over 30 years through our sister company Go West Tours and, throughout the years, have developed an extensive network of trusted professionals around the world and a structured methodology to screen our suppliers. Today Voyages offers a selection of tours that are designed, managed and operated by our network of trusted Tour Operators and DMCs. Our database is connected with our partners so that when you make a booking with us this will immediately be received and processed by the Tour Operator.

  • Where should I buy the flights to reach my destination?

    Today Voyages does not sell flights directly. None of our tours come with flights included. Why? Because we prefer to give full flexibility to our valued customers to select the airlines and the booking platform they prefer. As soon as your flight is booked and confirmed, we invite you to update your flight plan within your Today Voyages booking confirmation page by entering your flight number, departure and arrival times, as well as your Passport information (if needed). None of these fields are mandatory but we highly encourage you to provide as much information as possible. This will allow us to provide you with the excellent service you are looking for.

  • What is an additional excursion or tour optional?

    Certain tours might show a selection of additional excursions/optional activities that you may want to add to our standard itinerary. These services are priced separately and can be added to the cart before completing the booking. We believe these optional services to contribute to making your vacation unforgettable; however, you are in no way obliged to purchase them. All our tours are awesome with our without optional services!

  • What is the difference between Group Vacations and Private Vacations?

    If you purchase one of our Group vacation packages, you will be escorted by a professional tour guide and will be traveling with other like-minded travelers you may not know. The group size depends on the tour you select. If you purchase one of our Private vacation packages, you will be traveling only within your group of friends. You may or may not be escorted by a professional tour guide; this depends on the type of private tour you are interested in.

  • When and how will I receive the travel documents (vouchers)?

    If you book one of our Group or Private tours, you will receive your travel documents via email approximately 20 days prior to travel date. If you reserve one of our Vacation Rentals, you will hear back from the property manager via email a few days prior to checking-in. We recommend checking your emails on a regular basis as this is our most reliable method of communication. If you have questions or need additional support, you can always chat with us or email us directly.

  • What happens if a Group tour does not get confirmed?

    It is very simple... you will be offered an alternative departure date or be refunded the full amount you pre-paid. No questions asked!

  • What happens after I book?

    The majority of our tours are confirmed at the time of booking. This means that, after submitting the payment online, you will receive an order confirmation email; make sure to save this email and to note down your confirmation number for any future communication with us. Some tours may be sold on a 'on request' basis. This means that for these tours we reserve the right to check the availability of your spot(s) with the Tour Operator before confirming the tour to you. As soon as you submit the payment online for a 'on request' tour you will receive an email notification that confirms your order request. Within 72 hours, you will receive either a confirmation email or a denial email. Do not worry... we will do everything we can to confirm your tour!

Unforgettable tour in the US National Parks

04-May-2022

I booked a guided tour in the National Parks through Today Voyages and couldn't have been happier! Our guide was great, he knew the destination very well and gave us great advice for the best hikes and view points. The itinerary was well-packed and we were amazed at the scenery of the South West. We would definitely consider booking another tour next year.

Helengeli island is stunning

12-Apr-2023

Wow, Helengeli island is stunning. The resort is clean, the staff are so attentive, the grounds are pristine, and the food is 5*. Spending a week at this resort was simply paradise, white sand, crystal blue ocean, what more could you want! As I wasn't able to tailor-make my holiday, the Today Voyages team helped me find the tour that best matched my expectations, and they definitely didn't disappoint!!!

Good Bali experience

03-Feb-2023

There is no better place on Earth than Bali to celebrate your honeymoon. We are so glad we came across this tour. Two unforgettable weeks of jungle adventures, beaches and snorkeling, massages, nature. And the price was great. We cannot be happier! Planning Vietnam for 2024!

Top Experience!

03-Feb-2023

The Las Vegas and the National Parks Hiking Tour is a deal not to be missed. What a phenomenal trip! We were 14 people in our minibus and it was great to connect to all of them. So many stories to share. The cool thing about this tour is that it attracts hikers of all kinds: laid back hikers as well as more experienced ones could find beauty in every single destination this tour took us to. I will for sure join another tour soon. Thank you guys, also, for the assistance provided throughout the trip. Loved it!

Unforgettable 8-day trip to Kenya

01-Mar-2023

I just came back from an unforgettable 8-day trip to Kenya. A mix of relaxation and adventure. I had never traveled with a group before and, honestly, I was a little skeptical at the beginning. Pauline at Today Voyages convinced me that this was the right tour and the right destination for me. And the truth is... she was right. Tsavo and Watamu are such awesome destinations, our guide was impeccable and it was a small group: a family of 4, a young couple, and us. We became friends. Highly recommended!
