  Cyprus is an amazing country and I was glad I was able to visit it. Booking the tour through Tourradar was quite easy and even though I had not heard of Cyprus Incoming Tour before, I booked this tour because of Tourradar. Overall, the tour was good and our group had 8 people with half of them from Spain. So, the tour guide, George, explained everything in both Spanish and English. I was impressed with all the sites, especially the occupied Northern Cyprus, which was eye-opening to see the tension and see all the occupying forces. I gave the tour 4 stars instead of 5 stars because there were a few issues, which could be improved in future offerings of this tour. First, another tour member and I who booked this tour through Tourradar were booked for only 5 nights at the Best Western Plus hotel in Laranaca even though the tour itinerary clearly said the tour included 7 night hotel accommodation. When I checked in at the hotel, the hotel reception staff said the reservation was only for 5 nights and didn't know what would happen for the remaining 2 nights. I messaged Cyprus Incoming through Tourradar and they promptly acknowledged the mistake, and said they would resolve it. I didn't know Cyprus Incoming had subcontracted the tour to another company called OLTA Travel, which had to correct the issue. In the meantime, when I checked with the hotel staff 2 days later, one of the staff at the front desk was very abrupt and said the reservation was only for 5 nights and there were no rooms available for the remaining 2 nights. This caused a lot of anxiety and concern, but eventually the hotel accommodation was extended for 7 nights. There were 2 other members of the tour group, who were booked in another hotel 25 kms away, which delayed the tour each day by half hour or more as the tour bus had to pick them up first and then drive to our hotel. So, the hotel accommodation issue must be resolved in future tours, and those who book the tours must be clearly informed that Cyprus Incoming organizes the tour through OLTA Travel. Best Western Plus is a good hotel but its location in the middle of a residential area instead of near the city center was not ideal. One had to walk at least 15 to 20 minutes to get to the city center. Second, the tour guide George was good but if he emails or uses Whatsapp as other tour companies do to inform the tour group what the next day's itinerary would be, what to bring, what to wear (as some in the group couldn't enter a famous mosque because they were wearing shorts and sleeveless shirts), lunch is included or not, approximately at what time we would return back to the hotel, etc., it would be very helpful. Some tour group members get nauseated on long bus rides and so including information on how long the ride before a stop would be very helpful. Also, a brief overview of the country on the first day will help the group orient itself to the tour better. Third, if the lunch duration is shortened and the time is used for seeing more sites, it would be great as some of us may not return again to the same country to see one or two important places. I really wanted to see the mosaics in Paphos but we didn't as we spent nearly 2 hours at lunch. Fourth, we had a leisure day but there were no recommendations on what we could see on our own, how to get the transportation, etc. It would have been nice to be given a list of options not covered by the tour itinerary. Overall, the tour was good and Cyprus is a wonderful country to visit. It has a lot of history, interesting sites to visit, beautiful beaches to enjoy, and if the mentioned issues could be addressed, this tour would be excellent.
