Things to Do in Limassol
What if the streets you walk every day were hiding a story?
Not loud ones: quiet, almost invisible. But still there, in balconies, cracks and names that no one explains.
For nearly a year, I’ve been walking through the old town with guests, showing them a Limassol that seems gone, but still lives in details.
This isn’t a formal tour.
It’s more like time-travel with someone who loves the city and wants to share what’s often overlooked.
We’ll talk about:
📜 What stood here 100 years ago
🎥 Which cinema was the third on the whole island
💣 Why there's a WWII bomb in the centre
🧨 How the city raised money for its main monument (spoiler: very creatively)
📮 What were the “social networks” of the past?
You’ll see:
The outline of the old Turkish quarter
A rare map of Limassol when it was tiny
Archival photos that make the past feel real
We finish near Poe Bar – the perfect place to let the stories settle.
🧡 I keep groups small – around 5 people.
Coming alone? I’m happy to walk even with one person.
Can’t make the time? Message me – we’ll work something out.
Let the city surprise you.
You’ve probably walked these streets. Just… not like this.

Have a few hours to spare in Limassol? Join me for a walking tour of the highlights of the city. I will give you the historical context but also we will delve into a variety of other subjects such as the economy of Cyprus, social changes in the last few years, current trends, all of which will give you an accurate and balanced view of life in Limassol and Cyprus in general.
We start at St Catherine's Church and will immediately cross over to get spectacular views of the coastline of Limassol. We will then walk the seafront promenade to arrive at the Old Port and then the Marina. Following on we will leave the seafront and come inland to visit the heart of the city, the castle, Turkish quarter and Ottoman mosque and the city's cathedral. We finish amongst the shops, cafes and restaurants of the main street of the Old Town.
I look forward to you joining me for an informative and engaging tour of Limassol.
The tour lasts approximately 2.5 hours.
******SOLO TRAVELLERS********
I am happy to accept bookings from solo Travelers, however it may not be economically viable to offer the tour if you are the only person booked on the tour. If you are a solo traveler please contact me via a message on the app a couple of days before the tour to discuss the options , check if it's possible to book for an alternative date etc. If you have booked as a solo traveller please do not proceed to the meeting point unless we have made contact and I have confirmed that the tour will be operating.
Please note:
I will contact you a couple of days before the tour is scheduled to reconfirm that you still will be attending. Should something happen in the interim and you no longer wish to attend, I would kindly request that you cancel the booking or alternatively contact me to rearrange another time or date. As I live outside of town a minimum of 1.5 hours notice of cancellation prior to tour departure time is much appreciated.
Depending on the season, the tour may involve walking and standing in the sun for short periods, though I will try to find shady spots where possible. Therefore between May and September I recommend shoulders and head covering, sun screen and water. Between November and March we can get some bad storms and spells of wet weather so may not be able to operate if the forecast is unstable.
Thank you
