Blessed with over 300 days of sunshine each year, natural beauty and friendly inhabitants, Cyprus is a real destination for winter visitors. No trip to Cyprus is complete without spending some time in the villages on the Troodos Mountains. Filled with hidden gems, the Troodos Mountains are home to countless little museums, such as Kykkos Monastry Museum, Arsos Folk Art Museum, and the picturesque village of Omodos famous for its lace and wine production.

The region is a real Byzantine treasure trove that reveals the island’s religious heritage. You can spend days driving through the areas of Pitsilia, Marathasa and Solea to spot their true beauty and other traditional architecture. As the past unravels, stop off at one of the old tavernas to sample traditional Cypriot delights.

Cyprus often experiences snow in winter but only at Mount Olympus in the Troodos. Mount Olympus is the highest peak and hosts four ski slopes.

If you are planning a countryside escape during the festive season, there is no better way to stay in a cosy and quaint hotel. There are some fabulous places to stay in the Troodos region that are ideal for a short break. You can add a fireplace into the equation and the stay becomes even more blissful. 

Emirates flies daily between Malta and Larnaca and onwards to Dubai. EK 108 leaves Malta at 14.50 and arrives in Larnaca at 18:15 (Cyprus time). In addition to great value, travellers from Malta can experience Emirates comfortable seats, inflight entertainment system ice on demand with the latest movies, music and games, and a generous baggage allowance of 30kg in Economy Class.
