In order to show you the whole diversity of the island we tried to cover most of the regions in the republic of cyprus in this Cyprus Documentary from the west over the south to the east as well as the mountains in the center and the divided capital of Nicosia in oder to shine light on to the present day situation of the conflict.
Cyprus is a major tourist destination in the Mediterranean. With some of the most popular and cleanest beaches in Europe, much of the tourist industry relies on "sea sun and sand" to attract tourists. But the island has so many hidden gems to offer which are off the tourist path - this is what we want to show you too.

This video project was made possible by Masterworks our sponsor for this video. Our aim is to show you the beauty of the rather unknown parts in Cyprus alongside with the famous spots. Besides beautiful landscape you can expect loads of information and our personal experience traveling through the Republic of Cyprus.
The whole trip was executed over the course of 9 days using a rental car as well as a guide. A big thank you goes to Kiko who helped me filming this trip as well as to all locals involved in the production for their time and all the information they provided.

After such a long time without new video content I'm happy to share this adventure with you. Kiko and I were filming this documentary in March this year during another assignment (which we only took on because we wanted to finally work on a documentary together). After a few months searching for a suitable sponsor to help finance the whole post production I was more than thankful to have found great support from Masterworks in order to make this happen. I hope you enjoy this one and stay tuned for more long-form video content...even though it takes a bit longer to produce!
I Love Cyprus
Oh Cyprus, beautiful Cyprus. With its beautiful beaches and elegant ruins of Greek culture. Mosaic floors are a miracle. Thanks. It's like I'm back there.
at last a video documentary about Cyprus during the winter which is not about brunch, airbnb and narcism of the shooter. Very good JOB
Love this video - Cyprus is my favourite place in the world!
March is the best time to visit, good weather abd everything is green
Happy you enjoyed your stay
This video is equivalent to a tv travel documentary production, well researched and properly informative. Well done 👍
Spent 6 months when I was 18 in 1987. Nice little island.
I have never been to Cyprus. Your video opened my eyes to the many interesting aspects of the island. Thank you.
Wonderful documentary on my home country, It's great to see that you highlighted so many areas and showed that Cyprus is so much more than just a summer holiday destination.
Beautiful!!! 👍😍🇨🇾
Steve, I have always enjoyed your videos for their quality and content, but with this one you took us to a new level. What a wonderful treat! A great effort from both you and Kiko.
Thank you Gary, always a pleasure seeing your comment pop up after publishing a new video!
Welcome back Steve. Thank you for another wonderful adventure. Cyprus is so beautiful. Once again your narration is spot on.
Thank you, I'm glad to still have my dedicated followers watching my videos even after such a long time without new content from side due to the Pandemic!

It is nice but not as beautiful as Norway . They are so rude to us relatives that are born in Australia . I don’t know why . I have been to the Greek side of Cyprus .I didn’t like the pebble beaches . The sand is actually imported and we’re placed on their beaches . The most beautiful places are Troodos and Akamas Peninsula. Most of the beaches are heavily commercialised and not so natural . I live in Australia and our national parks have heaps of untouched beaches with beautiful wildlife . I love remote wilderness that are vast . Cyprus is only small and there is not enough wilderness places and I rather visit New Zealand because it has what I am looking for and the people are very welcoming!
Amazing video, covering some of the most exciting areas of the island! Thank you for sharing
Cyprus is an awesome place for a road trip. The footage here is great. Our first Cyprus vlog just came out today. We will have four vlogs on the history, culture and food of Greek Cyprus over the next few weeks that I hope you might like. Cheers! - Turtle

Great place to explore with beautiful beaches and nice ruins of antik culture. Great travel documentarys

Nice
Que bellos lugares existen en el mundo
Hi thank you for this informative doc! I didn't catch the time of year- what month was this?
Wonderful content, thank you for putting this together. May I ask, how you found your guide?
No problem-we found zen9nas through visit Cyprus. Just search for his name 😉
which mount you was there?
Can you please let me know which car hire company did you use?
how long did take for this trip?
What is the village name in where I can find the house of Sofia? Any address?
I just downloaded a new game on my phone, and the game was so awesome.
I wondered, where do the developers come from?
So I googled the developer's company, and found that their address was on Cyprus.
And I was like, "What?" "Where the hell is that?"
I checked the map and it is located "below" turki.
Damnnn all my life I've never heard of a country named Cyprus.
But they got awesome game developers!
The term river is used loosely. Most dry up in summer. Cyprus has no permanent rivers.
Was that chap Zenonos Zenonos once married to an English lady called Lucy? Years ago?
when was this filmed?
This was filmed in March this year, hence the jacket ;)
you say very clearly about the Turkey, you dont mention the Serb when you visit Boxnia.
A well documented video with accurate content. Would be nice to cover northern Cyprus with the same quality of production and content.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇾🇨🇾🇨🇾
Hello
Kiko sounds like Kako which is a Kurdish word for brother
Kurds are trying to gain independence from Turkey who does not officially recognise the Kurds as a Nation which now about 20mill in Turkey.
Important to remember that the locals are Cypriots first and wish to remain independent.. Neither side wants union with either Greece or Turkey. Sadly neither Greece or Turkey realises this.
From mazotos. I don't even want to be part of the next village..... nevermind turkey and Greece!
Limassol? Second city! Larnaca? Don't exist??
😍😍🇱🇰
I was on Boarder for my Turkish military time as a 2nd Lt
It was a great video but you didn't cover the northern part (Northern Cyprus)
Come to Uzbekistan
What about Famagusta men? 😢😢😢
nice video
16:34 I had to listen it couple of times. I was like what Cypriot's are vegetarian. Good thing I heard it wrong because I was like that a big fat lie. I'm a Cypriot. We do eat allot of non meat product's But I can never give up eating Makaronia tou fournou (Pastitsio) and Souvlaki, haha
Stoa Aristolelous is that the one in Fasoula? if It is that's a 46km (28miles) from my home village in Silikou.
Yes it is. Worth the drive 👌
There are so many commercials that i stopped watching the video after less than 10minutes

June 1 2023- unfortunately my friend, racism is a worldwide problem and NOT only in Cyprus. What you don’t mention is the village of Fasoulla, a village that my uncle was from and a village that many African descendants settled and have lived there for centuries. My uncle was black, born and raised in Cyprus and he wouldn’t have it any other way. The problem isn’t exactly with racism as much as it is since Cyprus joined the E.U and has struggled economically and with the surge of immigrants from all over the world. Cyprus is a very small nation island, and unfortunately doesn’t have enough resources to drive a big workforce, alot of Cypriots are struggling to find jobs and I think this might be the cause for their hostility to not only the African migrants, but to all migrants. Like any country in the world, when migrants come to their country and work for a fraction of the wage, it doesn’t sit well with the majority. That’s the sad reality of the world we live in. Racism is only half the problem.
God bless the republic of Cyprus.
Great Video but why about the North?
#konkanknightriders
Because North is Illegal Occupied by Ottoman Militarism and expansive policy of Kemal . Not even a single country all over the world recognize this occupy land . Doesn't it bother you that the story they told you is wrong? 🥲
If you open up UN buffer zone North Cyprus, South Cyprus borders , free of visas to Turkey's tourists, at least each year 10 million Turks will come and make Cypriots richer and richer and much richer, you cannot know where you will place your multimillion euros net worths. Each year 3.5 million Turkish citizens fly to overseas as tourists. I had spent 57.000 euros in 2 years in the USA alone. 13 million Turkish citizens are among richest Switzerland citizens standard of living in Turkey.
Why don't those 10 mill Turks visit North Cyprus now??.... since they recognize it as a country. North Cypriots depend more on South Cypriots than they depend from Turkey. You have no idea how much money is flowing to North Cyprus from the South every year..
Nice video about Greek administared part of Southern Cypriot entity.
No, the entire island is officially recognized as the Republic of Cyprus.
EU sovereign state.
@@chriscap147 in your dreams
What dreams? It is.
This video is about 35 minutes toooo long
One of city at Turkish side remain closed, and empty..but Turkish government can open it..if they open it South Cyprus will be upside down as an economical because North side sea/beaches better than South..and airport transportation too..the worse thing at North side people running prostitution..hotel/bar/casinos there posts job for woman, and they want younger age woman..many from Russia side goes there with out knowledge..than some guy meets them at airport..takes their passports and brings to place where they force them do sex with visitors..and most visitors are soldiers who is doing duty there..when their vise expire, this people gives some money to them and send back to their home..
You mean Varosha? It was owned and is by the republic of Cyprus. In October 2020 Turkey captured it.
It's not Turkish side , it's Occupied Side
Occupied
