It was an incredible few hours in which so much was covered and I came away feeling like I have now got a much greater knowledge of the events of the islands partition. The tour is well worth doing and Eleni is such a lovely person and a warm soul. Her lived experience adds to the knowledge through first hand accounts of what she went through, I couldn't recommend more going on this tour! A wonderful woman with an interesting life and an impressive knowledge. A must for anyone visiting Nicosia!”
