Some people would rather walk independently and discover North Cyprus at their own way. Therefore, I also provide daily-guided walks as well as self-guided walks. For those of you who choose where and when you want to go, for how long and how fast the options are all yours.

I will supply you with maps and put you on the right path. If you wish I can pick you up from your HOTEL AND take you to any part of the North you wish to explore and drop you back to your hotel once you finish hiking. With a self-guided tour you have the freedom and ability to explore the East all the way down to West parts of North Cyprus.

For your five days walking I would transport you to the start of the trails and provide you with maps and notes to follow the way marked trails. I will then pick you up at the end of the walk. Most of the walks end in a place of interest so I will give you time to explore and pick you up at an agreed time.
