We had a great private tour for two people which took many of the islands key sights including multiple sites in Ancient Kourion, amazing views and spots Troodos Mountains, Olympus Mountain, lovely small villages, pretty waterfalls, nice spot of lunch, great morning coffee stop with old monastery and ancient wine press in Omodos and this packed day finished of in Lambouri Winery with great tasting and walk around the wine production site.

Our driver was amazing, funny, gentleman, on time, polite, very knowledgeable about everything local, being English, spoke perfect English and told us a lot about the history, present as well as about nature, local trees plants as well as British military sites around Cyprus.

We thoroughly enjoyed the day and although a little pricey, it was definitely worth the money for such a comfortable and highly customised excursion, which was a welcome break from the hot Cyprus sun.

We had two tours with Ascot; one including Paphos and the other which was The Grand Tour. On both occasions we were picked up from our hotel in Pissouri Bay and taken to meet the tours in Limassol for a small extra fee. Our driver, Chris, also acted as our guide around the island. He was very informative and gave information clearly and distinctly, particularly about the history of the island and its various invasions and occupations. We enjoyed both tours as they gave us a real flavour of the island and packed a lot in. Highlights were the meze taverna meal in the mountains and the visit to Omodos village, along with the mosaics in Paphos. We would recommend both tours, although the Grand Tour involved a lot of bus travel on mountain roads. Definitely not suitable for children.

We did two trips with Ascot Travel and Tours and were extremely fortunate to have Chris as a guide for both tours. The first trip to Nicosia and Larnaka was a great introduction to Cyprus, especially as we were the only two on the trip and ended up getting a personal tour of the locations. We got a good appreciation for the island and the people. Chris was informative, entertaining and took good care of us. We visited the Archbishop’s Palace and entered the atmospheric St John’s Cathedral before going further into the city and visiting the Leventis Municipal Museum. We then went on to Larnaka to enjoy the beach front and visit Agios Lazaros Church with it’s fine icons before returning to Limassol. The second trip, again we were lucky to have Chris, although this time it was as part of a group. We did the Grand Tour, starting at Limassol and travelling to Lefkara to view the intricate silver work and lace, inevitably buying some beatiful jewellery. We then traveled via Nicosia up into the Trudoss mountains to the most amazing Kykkos Monestary to see the splendour of the Church there. Despite the worsening weather Chris got us above the snow line, past the Ski lifts to Mount Olympus in fog, snow and hail, then safely down to The Village Tavern in Platres for a fantastic Meze with local wine. As if that wasn’t enough we continued to a winery to sample more wines and spirits before continuing to Omodos to visit the Timios Stavropol Church of the Holy Cross. The weather at times was atrocious but we thoroughly enjoyed the adventure of the trip, seeing amazing scenery and parts of Cyprus we were totally unaware of. Definitely two of the highlights during our holiday in Cyprus, thank you.

I visited Cyprus in August 2021 with my Mother and spent one week in Limassol; we asked Ascot to arrange transfer from and to Larnaka airport.
The experience was great. On the first day we got a luggage delayed due to a late connection flight in the night, and the driver waited for us without any problem.
Initially I wanted to rent a car to visit the island, but since I was afraid to drive in Cyprus as I am used to drive on the right side, we also joined two excursion organized by Ascot to visit the rest of the island; one day Nicosia-Larnaka and the other day Paphos-Kourion (but there are many more you can see on their website). We were with the driver Chris, that provided us an amazing experience in visiting the places and providing useful informations.
I recommend anyone who wants to visit Cyprus and is based in Limassol to arrange excursions or transfers with them.
Apart from excursions and airport transfers they do provide also Jeep Safari Tours, Car Rental, and other Private Transportation services at high quality standards for reasonable prices.
You can't go wrong with them!

Ascot Travel saved the day. With short notice we were able to book the tour for a fair price when Spanos cancelled our very same tour after final payment for for reasons that made no sense. The Ascot Travel guides did an excellent job. Our tours were outstanding and veryone enjoyed their visit to Cyprus. I highly recommend this tour operator.We had a large group of over 100 people from our cruise ship. Ascot Travel was a pleasure to deal with and it is clear why they get so many 5 star reviews. They are the best tour operator in Cyprus.

These trips are not cheap compared with bus travel but are as good as any on the island. Our trip to the north with Chris was interesting although Chris was rather dismissive over the state of the road structure in the north - he could not have travelled on some of the roads we encountered in the south! We would have considered more than one trip but the unnecessarily early start prevented us.Yes it does get dark early but not that bad. We were surprised how 'normal' most of the north looked although we have long thought that we could not holiday there out of consciousness. Chris seemed to be expecting tips at the end and appeared to be put out when people did not do so.

A full day out with Ascot. Our hotel reserved us a trip to get a feel of some Cypriot culture. It was great to get away from the hotel and see some of the history surrounding this country. Our day was jam packed but felt very relaxed and easy going and at our pace. The highlight had to be Chris our guide. He was a brilliant companion for the day. He literally knew everything. But what we really loved about our day was Chris’s openness, sharing details of his life journey. Absolutely fascinating and it felt like we were out with an old friend.

We scheduled an excursion through our hotel for a day trip to Ayia Napa. Ascot Tours was right on time waiting for us in the lobby. They were very friendly and explained to us what to expect during our day. Harry was our guide and he was great! His priorities were making sure we were safe and that we had a great time. Harry was very knowledgeable about Cyprus history, provided fun facts, and answered all our questions. He made us feel so comfortable and we never felt rushed throughout the day at any of our stops. He even gave us options to add on stops to the tour if we felt up to it and had the time. Harry really made sure we got the most out of our day and that it was exactly what we wanted…and it was! Plus, he is an A+ photographer!

We took private tour from Ascot (5 adults + 3 teenagers) to see the mountains and small villages. They very quickly planned the whole day for us (9-17/18), with many nice stops, including wonderful taverna for having local food (meze) in one mountain restaurant! Our driver (acted also as a guide for us ) was very great, spoke good English etc. Although they locate in Limassol, they agreed to pick us up and later dropped us off at Ayia Napa.

We took the Grand Tour of the island during our holiday and would thoroughly recommend it as the best way to see Cyprus within a day and visit some traditional locations and dining that you simply would not find without local knowledge. Our driver was the perfect guide, knowledgeable, informative, friendly and polite.
Would use this company again without question
