Solo Discover Northern Cyprus with Flights – 8 Days
Kyrenia, St Hilarion, Bellapais, Nicosia and Salamis for solo travellers, with flights.
Tour overview
This 8-day holiday is designed for people travelling on their own, based in a four-star hotel in Kyrenia for the week. Flights and transfers are included, and a tour director looks after the group. You stay seven nights, with breakfast daily and four dinners.
After an orientation of Kyrenia and its harbour, you head northwest past unspoilt countryside to Guzelyurt, the ancient city of Soli and the hilltop Palace of Vouni. The next day brings two storybook sights: the castle of St Hilarion and the abbey of Bellapais.

You explore Nicosia, the world's last divided capital, and after a free day travel to the east coast for the walled city of Famagusta, the ruins of Salamis and the monastery of St Barnabas.
