Quick trips to Lebanon and Egypt

by wadekorzan

In many of the towns, there are small travel agencies where you can change money and book excursions. I did not realize before I went that they offer quick trips on ships to Lebanon and Egypt. Though I recommend making Egypt a trip in itself, if I had known ahead of time I would have considered taking one of the two day trips they were offering to Lebanon. I don't know when I wil get back to that part of the wprld and it surely would have been interesting! It gives you something to consider anyway...

Favourite Cypriot Beer - Keo

by grayfo

This is brewed in Lemesos, in Greek Cyprus. The brewery motto is: 'Be Happy and Drink Well' - an epithet I heartedly agree with. It is styled in the pilsner vein and in 1987 won the brewing industry world bottled lager competition Gold Medal. It is sweet and malty on the nose (honey?), though this is very subdued. It is lively on the palate. The faintly sweet malt character carries through to the mouth, where it lasts into the light, fruity, lemony finish. There is also a subtle resiny quality to the beer. Hops are discernible but not prominent. While not overpowering and narrowly avoiding blandness, this is a very refreshing though slightly cloying beer from a very hot part of the Mediterranean. Alc 4.5% vol.Above review by Oxford Bottled Beer Databasewww.bottled.co.uk

by bobiko

Don´t waste your money buying water in expensive tourist shops /0,5 l. = 0,50 CYP/Six pack of mineral water /6 x 1,5 l./ in the supermarket will cost you about 1,50 CYPThere are a water supply machines on the streets /at petroll station / near religious place/ where 20 litre cost 0,50 CYP.

Troodos : 'Kykkos...

by dedeckerm.

Cyprus is famous for its monasteries.In the mountainous Troodos region, 20 km west of the village of Pedoulos, is the most famous and richest monastery in Cyprus, Kykkos Monastery. It possesses one of the three surviving icons ascribed to Saint Luke. Fairs are held here in August and September. And also in Troodos you’ll find nine beautifully painted Byzantine churches. The 'most' missing is the 'sun' !!

Romantic mountains.

by benazer

Looking at this mountains called five fingers or (penta daktilo) in Greek.They seem to change colour as the day progesses... From the first day I noticed those mountain ranges I had fallen in love with them.We as kids always took some trip there secretly from our parents.

Cheap Cellphone Calls

by Yiannis2000

When in Cyprus, consider getting a pay card for your cellphone, called "soeasy", the charges are the lowest in Europe. If you use telephone more than very little and if your stay is more than a week, it may be cheaper to use your cellphone with the local card than the hotel's services.SMS cost around 0.02 euro each.For more information :www.soeasy.cyta.com.cyPS. the soeasy cards are popular with turkish cypriots as well, they can be used in nothern Nicosia as well but there is no coverage beyond the Pentadaktylos mountains (the nothern coast).
