A Sunny Drive From Tala To Lemba in Paphos.


Tala is one of the villages that surrounds Paphos. Nestled in the hills to the North of the town, it is popular with locals and expats alike. In today's driving film we star in the centre of Tala and drive through Emba to Lemba. We finish at the ancient historical village, but not before driving past the old Art College with its amazing wall.

Cyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop

Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road. The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way. There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings. You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.

Kelefos Bridge Gets A Spring Clean!

Of all the Venetian Bridges in Cyprus, Kelefos is probably the most famous. Nestled in the heart of Paphos Forest, it formed an integral part of the Camel Trail route from the mountains to coastal areas. We were up there a few days ago and noticed it was looking remarkably clean and well-groomed. Come see for yourself...
