FULL DAY JEEP EXCURSIONS

maximum 9 passengers per vehicle

 

These excursions involve long wheel-base Land Rovers to take you into the Cypriot wilderness. All vehicles are fully insured, bear the required ‘T-license’ and are equipped with hard tops, seat-belts and first-aid kits for your safety and comfort. (Espresso-machines have not yet been installed.) EXALT has a strict non-convoy operation policy. This means our normal mode of operation is to run single-jeep or two-jeep excursion parties, not multi-jeep convoys. Except for specially-arranged large groups and our ultra-popular ‘Surf and Turf’ adventure tours, you will never be part of a group exceeding 18 participants; often the group will number only 6 to 9 persons. During the day, passengers are encouraged to swap seats periodically so that the more advantageous positions in the jeep are shared equally. All itineraries include short, optional walks (lasting 15-30 minutes) over easy to moderately sloping terrain. Sensible footwear is advised. Bottled drinking water and a very memorable lunch are included.

Note: EXALT reserves the right to make last minute changes, alterations, modifications or enhancements to any itinerary due to reasons of safety, climate, group ability and/or logistics. A minimum number of 6 participants per excursion is required.

 

 

 

 

 

SINGLE DAY TREKKING EXPEDITIONS

 

 

In order to promote close contact with the birds, flowers and clean air of Cyprus, and to keep you moving across unspoilt landscape for the whole day, EXALT has developed a series of six single-day Treks graded Easy – Intermediate. These Treks can be completed by any reasonably fit individual who takes regular exercise and can walk major distances unassisted. Appropriate footwear (no sandals please!) and the proper ‘trekking spirit’ are essential; a small day-pack will prove advantageous. Except for the Gorge Trek, which operates year-round, all Treks listed here are operated March–mid May and October–early December. Each Trek includes a very ethnic lunch, normally taken after all or most of the walking is completed (i.e. lunches tend to be on the late side…).

 

  

 

 

 

 

ADVENTURE EXPERIENCES

For thrill-seekers, sport-freaks and other

non-conventional travelers, EXALT has

developed a series of ‘Adventure Experiences’ designed to take you beyond the bounds of normal tourism. One might consider them more extreme versions of our standard Jeep Expeditions, but in reality they offer a lot more. First, they ‘marry’ the jeep excursion experience with an adventurous boat ride across the sea, and that means they run summertime only (June through September). Because it tends to be uncomfortably hot in this season, we design the day as a sort of ‘escape from the heat’, with individual ‘adventure activities’ focusing on contact with cold water and lots of time to immerse yourself. Typical activities include: wading through waist-deep water to explore semi-submerged sea caves, swimming in natural plunge pools, waterfall jumping, and snorkeling in the bluest bays and coves imaginable. Everything is conducted in a safety-first, casual atmosphere, and you can choose whether or not to get fully involved. It doesn’t matter whether you are a super-macho risk-taker or just an everyday traveller looking for a slightly different perspective on traditional tourism. Either way, our ‘Adventure Experiences’ will not fail to impress!
