Red Bus Varosha Experience in English from Ayia Napa & Protaras

About this activity

Varosha experience is designed to allow you the maximum time to explore this deserted holiday resort called Varosha. This was once the holiday resort for the rich and famous during the 1970s including Raquel Welch, Brigitte Bardot, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton to mention a few.

Since 1974 this holiday resort had become empty due to the comflict during that year. Not only the hotels were affected but shops, bars and residential homes remain empty.

The guide will provide you with an exclusive map which helps with navigation and additional information about relevant buildings.

Once in the empty resort you are allowed to go wherever you want within the designated areas governed by the authorities. You have enough time to explore the streets, have a snack or a swim on these beautiful beaches.
