Really cheap to go to, but a bit of a let down. After paying your entrance fee the first and only sign you see is one telling you that no kings are buried here - just rich people. I didn't buy a guide book so thats where i made my mistake as there is nothing else to tell you about... More

I went to this site on my own with my 8 month old baby while my husband had to work at the hotel. The tombs are all accessible, I wore her in a sling, and would not recommend a push chair. It is amazing that this site is so cheap, only 1.70 euro to walk amongst the tombs. Nothing is... More

This is a large site and the rock excavations are very interesting although sometimes it was difficult to reach them due to steep steps. Also the pathways were over rough ground and visitors should be advised to ware strong walking shoes.

We were very lucky we had our very own personal guided tour. Some very close friends of ours are Greek and came to visit us and show us around. This this made the visit even more interesting getting all the history about the place. Makes you feel very humble

an interesting site which lacks adequate explanatory signage to help visitors understand what it represents. Has scenic views over the sea, and there are some great shots in the tombs for camera buffs.

A must for all visitors to Paphos - easily accessed by the bus to Coral Bay. There are 7 numbered tombs spread out over the site and it's a bit like a treasure hunt to find them all.

Easy to get there by car or taxi. Big area with lots to see and you get to walk down into some of the ruins. Much to explore, so bring rhe kids as well.. Would have wanted a better guidebook though.
