Days 1 and 2: settle around Kyrenia
Arrive, confirm the transfer and keep the first day light. Walk Kyrenia Harbour and, if open, visit the castle. On the second day choose Bellapais or St Hilarion according to weather and walking ability, with time for a village or coastal meal. Do not schedule a mountain climb immediately after a late flight.
Day 3: Lefkoşa
Take a day for the walled city, Büyük Han, market streets and a long lunch. Our Lefkoşa guide covers the old town and crossing considerations. If approaching through the Green Line, check current documents and use an authorised checkpoint. Plan the return before dinner.
Days 4 and 5: east coast
Travel toward Famagusta and give its historic streets a day. On another day visit Salamis and, if opening hours permit, St Barnabas Monastery. Our Famagusta guide separates the walled city from coast and resorts. A split stay can reduce driving, but a single Kyrenia base may suit travelers who prefer fewer hotel moves.
Days 6 and 7: choose your finish
Choose a restful beach day, a slower Karpaz trip with an overnight stop, or another Kyrenia outing. The Karpaz guide explains why the far peninsula needs time. Keep the final day near your departure route, check the forecast and reconfirm the airport transfer. This is a sample, so remove stops freely to suit children, mobility and season.
