Larnaca has always been a crossroads of civilizations, but the 2030 initiative is bringing a fresh, creative coolness to our traditions.

This movement is led by people who love their heritage, making every event feel like a warm welcome into a Cypriot home. From ancient crafts like lace-making getting a modern makeover to secret courtyards opening up for art installations, the city is proving it is much more than just a gateway airport. It is a destination for activities that feed the soul and connect you to the local spirit.

At Book My Culture, we don’t just show you the sights; we invite you to live them. We have curated the most authentic and curated travel experiences that align perfectly with the vision of Larnaca 2030. You often visit a destination only once, so you have to experience the most of it! Instead of just buying a souvenir, we encourage you to sit with a local artisan in a workshop and create your own. We take you off the beaten path to discover what to do in Larnaca that isn't in the standard guidebooks, using simple language that makes everyone feel included.
