Board a comfortable coach, sit back, and take a break as you ride through inner Cyprus and head toward Famagusta. Arrive in Northern Cyprus and pay a visit to the ancient city-state of Salamis, which sits just north of Famagusta. Here you get to see a restored amphitheater and gymnasium as well as majestic columns and charming marble statues.

Then continue your journey to Famagusta, a city boasting fine medieval architecture, home to many preserved historic landmarks. Let your guide lead you to Othello's Tower, the fortress that guards both the harbor and city. Walk through these historic grounds and admire the Venetian fortifications that date back to 1500 BC.
