OPERATORS backing industry charity The Travel Foundation have added a second Cyprus excursion as part of work to educate holidaymakers about traditional life on the island.

Clients can now visit Kalo Chorio, which has been the centre of Commandaria wine production since the Middle Ages. The tour takes in the Commandaria winery, where visitors can watch a short film about its history and enjoy a tasting. Clients can then explore the village, visit a local coffee shop, go on a nature trail or visit the market.

Travel Foundation backers TUI, First Choice, MyTravel, Thomas Cook and Sunvil will promote and offer the tour to clients in resort.

It can be taken as a stand-alone excursion or combined with the existing Travel Foundation village tour, which takes clients into the homes of local people.
