Born in 1996. Raised as the youngest in a family of seven in the beautiful city of Limassol in the island of Cyprus. Hi, my name is Ioannis Theofanous or you can call me "John". I'm a passionate young architectural engineer from Cyprus. As an architect, I am concerned about how we interfere with the environment, how our man-made structures interact with the natural site and the existing forms and buildings. Thus, in my projects I try to interpret the space, to integrate into it with modern means and methods, but always in a spirit of respect and dialogue with the existing environment. My passion for travelling, exploring, photography and sharing knowledge prompted me to begin this walking tour in Limassol in order to share with the world the interesting facets of the history and culture of this multicultural and diverce city!

Tour description

Hello! I’m Ioannis, but you can call me John. As a passionate, young architect born and raised in Limassol, I’m excited to be your guide on a journey through the heart of Cyprus' most captivating city.

Limassol isn’t just another city-it’s a living canvas of history, culture, and modernity. From the multicultural charm of its historic core to the dynamic business hub and breathtaking seafront, every corner has a story to tell.

Together we’ll explore Limassol's historic landmarks, from Medieval Castle Square to the Old Port, while uncovering the tales that make the city truly come alive. As a local architect, I’ll guide you beyond the ordinary, offering insights into the city’s architecture, its cultural roots, and how the past and present continue to shape life here. Along the way, you’ll hear fascinating stories about the local traditions, events, and cultural milestones that have marked Limassol’s evolution.

You’ll also discover my personal recommendations-places where the flavors of Cypriot cuisine mingle with global influences, hidden cocktail bars, and cozy spots perfect for a relaxed brunch or coffee. And as a special gift, you’ll receive my Limassol Outing Guide-a curated collection of the best places to see, eat, and explore, specially designed for you to continue your adventure after the tour. 

Let me show you this beautiful city through my eyes-where every building tells a story, and every street offers something new to discover.
