Paphos is a delightful town and well worth a leisurely visit. 2017 Paphos was the European City of Culture. The island mixes the charm of Greece with local tavernas and small charming villages with a touch of British influence: driving on the left, signposts in English and even M&S and Debenhams stores. Paphos is served by many airlines and is a four and a half hour flight from the UK. The landscape is very dramatic on Cyprus, enjoying citrus and olive groves on the lower land and then as you climb higher towards the Troodos it becomes fields of vineyards and Pine forests. Greek is the main language however English is widely spoken.
