The Experience

If you have a free afternoon and want to see the real Cyprus instead of the resort strip, this tour trades the usual coach for a Segway. You'll roll through Kouklia Village—once the ancient capital of Cyprus and later a retreat for wealthy Romans—and out into the countryside beyond it, where the landscape opens up to burial grounds, siege wall remnants and mountain views. The route works for first-timers and experienced riders alike because the terrain varies: you'll ride tarmac in the village, then move onto gravel and dusty tracks as you head into the surrounding area. That mix is the whole point—it's what makes this different from a walking tour or a bus ride.

The guide meets you after pickup and runs through the safety briefing before you mount up. From there, the day unfolds at a pace that lets you take in the stops without rushing. You'll pass the Sanctuary of Aphrodite and the church of Panagia Odigitria, visit the Palaepaphos museum, and ride past the physical traces of the ancient world—the siege wall, the burial grounds—all while the Paphos coast and the Troodos mountains sit on the horizon. Because you're on a Segway instead of walking or sitting in a vehicle, you cover more ground than you would on foot but stay close enough to notice details a bus window would blur past.

The whole outing runs about four and a half hours, which means you're back with time left in your day. No experience on a Segway is required; the briefing gets you steady, and the route is designed so that riders of any ability can handle it. Children from age 12 are welcome.
