Once a thriving holiday resort, Varosha has lain abandoned in the northern part of Cyprus for over 50 years. This open-top bus tour takes you to the heart of this forgotten town, where you'll have around two-hours of free time. Desolate hotels line the beach where you can grab a drink and relax on the sands – it's a real touristic time capsule.

Kunne faktisk godt bruge lidt mere tid til at se sig omkring, måske også få tid til at få en dukkert ved den fantastiske strand. 2 timer er ikke meget ...
